Buying Art for my signature :) TBT only. Please read what I want before replying.

[Munna]

Hello,

I've seen so many beautiful art pieces & signatures & looking for an artist to help me out!

So I've done my eyes in (I get migraines looking at all the flashing shops and small fonts filled with rules and GFX lingo I don't understand!)
looking through the signature & art shops again ( gave up with my last attempt to get art for my cycling thread...)

and would like someone who isn't going to make me look through their huge thread of pink text, and just read what I'd like & if you can do it please reply with an estimated TBT price.

If I don't respond here please VM/PM me to get my attention.

What I'd like:

For now I would like a signature at fits into the allowance for the site. I may also want an avatar, but it depends what you want to do & prices.
(one day I may come back for more art for threads if I like how the signature is done.) No gifs, sparkles or movement.

I'm willing to pay extra TBT because I do want something customized. I don't mind if you are meshing stock images, just as long as it looks good & fits what I have described. I don't want the little sprites (I can barely see those anyway)

I'd like any of these (giving a few options so whatever style is more enjoyable or easier for you to create.)

* Option 1 :Artistic license on a scene with the Zen streetlights (or similar looking) along a river, with the town name Lantern in the middle in some nice cursive script. (easy to read)
Something with the river/sea, lanterns, or even those red paper lanterns leaving reflections upon the water.

I want my town name & DA included in any of these choices. I don't have dreamie lists or a need for my friend code to be there.

* Option 2 : something with a dandelion, and my mayor blowing it towards the word "lantern" & DA in the middle. My town is going to be based around whimsical concepts, and I'm happy to have a mysterious theme. (but not horror)

* Option 3: something to do with Luna's dream suite/a comfortable cloudy looking bed & nighttime/dreaming, floating off to Lantern Town.

* Option 4: a signature with some of my favourite villagers in outfits I love (any/or all of these playing/standing together):

Lobo in the waistcoat, Tangy in the kid's smock or overall dress, Freya in the Mint shirt, Ruby in the bunny shirt or spacesuit, Skye as herself or any pastel outfit,

or whatever composition of villagers looks good & enjoyable to draw from this list:

Lobo, Marina, Ruby, Phoebe, Muffy, Kid Cat, Tangy, Stitches, Ruby, Skye, Keaton, Wart Jr.

best option ever:

A cute Wart Jr wearing glasses reading in a green simple love seat with the brown slippers & a green bathrobe or blue pjs or no glasses watering bonsai plants , cute grampa Wart Jr!
or dancing with Marina or any other cute villager from the list. woah! wart Jr & Luna! Now that would be a unique picture!

Extras/ Other ideas/options: things that are going to be big symbols in my town that could also be used: dreamcatchers, beds, aroma pots, incense, moon, lanterns, pillows, totem poles... things to do with dreams. I also like cherry blossoms, tea, pastels &/or gothic colours, things that are a little odd but still cute. (like Muffy)

If this sounds like fun & an artwork you'd like to make for me please send me a VM/PM!

Nvm

that's a lot of things you want

 

[himeki]

I can try it maybe, give you a sketch and see if you want me to continue? c:

I don't want all those things!

If you read carefully you will see a list of dot points for many short options, so the artist could chose from one of many options!

That way they aren't stuck with something they wouldn't enjoy creating.

O.K. well I guess the PM I sent you wasn't that private so here, you don't have an option to leave VMs either!

Hello

I love what you have done in my art request thread.
Thanks for taking the time to read it & do that.
PM me back or if you feel more comfortable talking in the thread that's fine too.

Let me know what ideas you had on the font. My dream address is 6400-5637-3487
My Mayors name is Mitsuko. It might be needed as there are only a few Lantern Towns, but still more than one.

I have to log out now, but I'm really excited about this & like your style.

I'll try to add the text on later~ I was planning to round of the borders with a soft glow, and then have your info on the front. Is there a specific font you would like?

 

[Munna]

Hello again!

Something like Lady Rene font or Cresilda or Violet Bee (curly, slightly off-kilter, not as wide/fat/round as most curly fonts)



for something simple & clearer the Tibetan style font is good too.

 

[Munna]

I'd love to have my signature finished please.

It's going really well.

Sorry! I go on and off projects, esp. if it hasn't been paid for yet ;-;

 

[Munna]

Oh, I didn't know it was finished.

Did you want some bells upfront before completing?

What would you like?

- - - Post Merge - - -

Were you still going to round off the edges with a soft glow & add the text?

I'm confused.

 

[himeki]

No, I haven't put any edits on yet. It's because you didn't specify a price or anything so we could negotiate that I haven't added the edits yet because it wasn't a top priority.

 

[Munna]

Hey, this communication between us has been really difficult.

Would you be able to tell me what you'd like for the work you did, and you can drop the project.

I'll ask someone else to help me & you don't have to feel stressed out.

I think that would make things easier on both of us.

No, no, I'm not stressed out, and there is no need to cancel, since the main part is done and all that needs adding is text.

 

[Munna]

I'd feel more comfortable just paying what you'd like for your time.

I'm glad to hear you are not stressed out (not sarcasm, I truly hate confrontation)

I have been (stressed out), by this exchange, especially in your own art thread. I'd feel a lot happier just paying what you'd like for the work so far.
I don't want to use something I will always think of & remember the argument.

I've actually felt inspired to get my scanner working so I can use my own art. I can draw & paint, but thought it would be more fun to work with a digital artist, as I don't make art with computers.

Thank you very much for your time anyway, and just name a price & I'll send the bells.

Oh, I'm sorry that if you would use it it would be bad for you

 

[Munna]

No worries, these things happen with text & how words can be read in different ways.

What do I owe you?
