We are hiring...
an RP manager
Full-time colorist hiring!


Colorist hiring is closed for now. Just keeping the info so I don't have to re-type it if we need to hire again inthe future

Dreamers is now hiring one or two more permanent colorists! All our current colorists have gotten super busy in real life, so I felt it would be a good idea to grab up more talented people to help us out.

What I am looking for in a colorist:
~ Must use an advanced art program with layers which can open PSD files!
~ Literacy. I'm not asking for perfection, but it would be nice not to get frustrated whenever I speak to you. This includes decent spelling and grammar, as well as being able to write in a way that other people can understand you. (Most people I see in B/C are just fine with this, so I doubt this will be an issue).
~ Sociability/Friendliness. As an employee of this shop, I think it's part of your job to be nice and friendly to everyone who comes in, try to instigate conversations and keep things lively and fun. After all, if people enjoy their time here, they'll want more pets - so it's ultimately to your benefit. This category is especially important, as I am hiring colorists at this time partially to help keep the shop going in-between events with both sales AND chat!
~ Ambition. I won't be setting any specific requirements for the number of pets you need to color. I want Dreamers to be fun for EVERYONE - and I don't think it's fun to feel forced to meet requirements. So, although the work will be set at your own pace, I still will expect you to get things done!
~ Creativity. Sometimes, a plainly-colored pet is really nice. But it shouldn't be the only type of coloring you do. I'd like to see lots of different colorings to appeal to lots of different tastes!

How much do colorists make?
~ 95% of your breedings, customs and bribes
~ 90% of your raffles and flatsales
~ 85% of your auctions
(Purplerosesbeauty certs all the pets, which is why at least 5% is taken from everything. The extra percents off are my payment for holding the shop together!)

What benefits do colorists get?

I'm pretty open to whatever you guys want, as long as you're doing your job well. Just tell me what you would like as a benefit, at any time, and I'll probably agree to it. This could include pet trades, coloring a pet for yourself, opening a bribe slot... or anything you can think of! Just run it by me first. ^__~

Want to apply? Fill out this form, please!

anaya sexual
Hey, I can color!
Samples: sample one
sample two
sample three

Edits? No because I have to work with a mouse and line edits will look bad.
Ability: I have photoshop. I've colored pets before in CYO events. I used to own a pet shop, but there wasn't much activity. I've been posting in the shop a bit, once I'm more involved I'll hang around more.
Activity: I'm usually online from around 1pm till 1 or 2 am. I do have housework that I have to do during the day and I have my own art shop, but drawing and coloring only takes two hours of my time. On Monday evenings I go to class for 4 hours. But other than that my week is free. On weekends, when I have the money, I go to visit my bf. But that won't be every weekend.
Availability: When I am online I tend to reply quickly. If I happen to not be on gaia you can reach me on Yahoo Messenger. My user name is lemonhead1963.
Why do you want to work for Dreamers? I get bored quickly when I have nothing to do, and I think coloring pets will be fun, especially if I can work at my own pace without feeling pressured.
Tell me a bit about yourself: Well, I'm a pretty nice person. I like to talk to people online, irl I'm shy. I like literacy, but I'll often use abbreviations like "lol,irl, ftw, wtf" I love using the smileys. I like to play around with my friends here. I'm open minded and I respect other peoples opinions, so I expect the same from them. I can be stern when I need to be.
Anything else? Hm..just come and kick me if I'm being slow with coloring.

Fea Line
Hey, I can color!
Samples: X O X O
Edits? Please consider me for edits smile O X O
Ability: All in all, I feel I fit your requirements well. I am very creative, probably my best strong point. Sometimes I will get random Socratic ideas and feel the need to just color it out onto a pet. Sometimes my ideas are crazy and off the wall, and other times they are very simple yet still have that eye catching flavor. Sometimes, the lines of the pets themselves will "speak" to me if you will. I see certain things in them and color them. For example, in one of my non edited colorings, I saw a skunk. Who doesn't love cute fluffy skunks?
I am also literate, and I strive to do so. Spelling is not always my best feature, but that is what spell check is for wink I love to roleplay often, and able to do so in many forms for those who love to RP, and I love casual chatting as well for those who don't. I don't mind talking about anything, as long as I do not have to get into a serious debate about issues, then I would prefer it go to PM's or a friendly change of subject. I am also committed. Anything I take on, WILL be finished within a reasonable amount of time. There shouldn't be any instances where I can't finish something, and if there is, the buyer will be the first to know.
Activity: I am on Gaia at least every day. I have applied to be a full time colorist at Counterfeit Paradise whom are hiring also, and have owned a co-art shop in the past. The only offline commitment I have now is college until I am able to find a job, but I am still online regularly. I love talking to others, and especially role playing with others in many different threads. I also do take care of my grandma who lives with me, but have my parents to help with the majority of that, so really it should not be an issue.
Availability: I always reply to PM's as soon as I get them and threads as fast as I can. I also have AIM, MSN, Gtalk, and Yahoo to be contacted by and am on AIM, MSN, and Gtalk every day.
Why do you want to work for Dreamers? I love to color, especially since I have gotten my new pen tablet, and am looking for a colorist job to help better my skills, as well as have fun and be able to bring people's creations to life - so to speak.
Tell me a bit about yourself: I am a 21 year old college student, female. Currently in my third year of college, working to be a creative writing major with a minor in drawing, so hopefully can not only write children literature but illustrate my books as well. I am a big animal lover, and very fond of felines. My Gaia user name is a pun off feline in fact. I also love anime, NASCAR, Dirt track race cars, Harry Potter, and horror movies. My humor does tend to be a bit morbid at times, but it is very well controlled.
Anything else? Not off the top of my head, but if there is anything you need to know, please ask me


vX- Star Dreamer -Xv
Hey, I can color!
Samples: [x][x][x]
Edits? Would love to be considered for edits~
[x][x][x]
Ability: I love to color. The spectrum is what makes our world exciting and worth living for. To apply color to creatures to make them exciting is a whole new experience. It makes me feel like I'm sculpting life from scratch; manipulating color to create something new. I really hate using brushes unless it it something I really need to incorporate. Even if I do use brushes, I prefer not to just stamp it on and call it done; usually I only use part of the brush.
xxxI'm not a very sociable person when it comes to the physical world; this all changes when I come online. I love to randomly chat if I can put enough input in. If I can't, I like to learn more. I have an open mind and, well, it's fun to socialize with people without being judged or being tempted to judge others. I don't usually use chat speak, but I luff to do teh random wurds sometimez =P I do love smilies though, and I might go overboard at times <o<
Activity: Gaia is my new-found life. I'm on every day for as long as I can; sometimes I even defy my parents for those few extra minutes :3 I do work for Nefai of Faelwen [I seriously think I'm drawn to your artwork o.o] as a colorist. As for other plans, I might be selling some lineart in the future. I really don't want to have too many shops to work for and I only plan on working at two at a time as a full-time colorist. School is about to start, but I've always been able to do my work fast. I might go on hiatus when it comes to completing projects sometimes though.
Availability: I'm pretty quick to reply to threads and such as long as something hasn't popped up. I do have Yahoo Messenger, which is preferred to PM if we are having a long conversation. I will answer PMs though~
Why do you want to work for Dreamers? I adore the lineart~ To go without coloring them would hurt my soul <o< Oh and I love the concept as well.
Tell me a bit about yourself: I am the most random person my friends know. I love to goof off; especially in threads. I have a great attention span and can deal with heavy loads of work. I hate the color pink and adore the color red. I'm half-chinese and proud of it. I love to sing but hate dancing. Most people think I'm older than I really am. I'm also really tall o3o Oooh and I luff meeting new people on the interwebz. I suck at drawing people, but hope to improve so I can fulfill an idea I just spawned <o<
Anything else? Sorry 'bout the poor line quality.... Tinypic doesn't really like PNGs >o<

Sweet Sweet Dreams
Hey, I can color!
Samples: (yeah some are old, but I like them ^^) old female 1 new female 1 old male 1 new male 1 new male 2
Edits? No sweatdrop
Ability: What makes me creative is my imagination! I'm more of a lurker than a talker, in general I don't post in threads with too much traffic, but if I feel comfy I may contribute to conversations. I can't do edits as already mentioned, but a coloring depending on my mood and if I'm on a coloring streak can take from 15 minutes to an hour on these lines. I'll be honest in that I've never done a custom or breeding, and that when I tried to stick to a single theme after a few pets I kind of just got a coloring block and ended up coloring some pets which I wasn't too happy with. So basicly, themes tend to be my weak point since I color what comes to mind in general. May be a bit of a problem I'm not afraid to admit, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem so long as I don't have to do half a dozen colorings based on a narrow theme. Oh, and I don't usually color lines, don't know if that matters to you but just in case.
Activity: I'm on gaia at least a couple hours each day almost daily. I don't have any time-consuming real life obligations other than highschool. As for b/c shops, I currently own one which I color for, am going to soon enough open another, and currently applied for two other coloring positions, will update this post when results are in (one ends in just a few days, not sure when other one does). In the amazing chance I get hired by one or both others, I will say now that I'm positive I would still be able to complete the required work here should I be hired.
Availability: I reply to pms within 24 hours, though if I'm online probably in no more than an hour. I have yahoo messenger.
Why do you want to work for Dreamers? Because I like coloring the lineart here. :3
Tell me a bit about yourself: Am currently 17 and a junior in highschool (yeah, I'm repeating a year, if you must know details feel free to pm me about it). Don't have much of a life, have only two rl friends, one who lives in another country and one who lives in another state. So yeah, I spend most my free time on the computer.
Anything else? Nothing comes to mind... If you need to know anything else just send me a pm.
RP Manager hiring!


Although Aeth has RP'd before, she's not very good at coming up with plots or doing things that get everyone involved. Nor is she very good at judging written entries for contests and such. Sooo I think an RP manager is in order!

What I am looking for in an RP Manager:
~ Must be able to get people involved!
~ Literacy. I'm not asking for perfection, but as the person in charge of doing most things involving writing, you really should be pretty good at it. This includes decent spelling and grammar, as well as being able to write in a way that other people can understand you. (Most people I see in B/C are just fine with this, so I doubt this will be an issue).
~ Sociability/Friendliness. As an employee of this shop, I think it's part of your job to be nice and friendly to everyone who comes in, try to instigate conversations and keep things lively and fun. After all, if people enjoy their time at Dreamers, they'll want to hang out more, and that's good for the shop.
~ Ambition. I probably won't be setting any specific requirements for how often you need to run a plot, or do any other sort of RP/writing event. It'll be up to you to plan and run these things. That means you'll need to have some ambition to get it done, without there being requirements to push you!
~ Activity. Real life always comes first, but make sure you'll have enough time to reply to RPs, run events you plan, etc. It wouldn't be nice to keep people hanging!

How much does the RP Manager make/what are the benefits?
To be honest, I'm not sure what RP Managers get paid, or if it's all in perks... that's why I put a spot in the application form for you to let me know what you would like to get if you are chosen for this position. The only thing I can think of is a set amount of gold each month, or possibly some freebies... but I'm open to suggestions!

Want to apply? Fill out this form, please!

Hoshi Lockhart
I'm a Roleplay Master!
Sample: Journal for solo. Only one entry since I just got her last month and she's my only one. Though she's due a second entry. >< The winning prompt is here.
Example of the longest: Parisa wrapped the shawl around her shoulders tighter to prevent it from falling down her arms. She now regretted taking it. It was bound to get in the way. But it added to the illusion of her outfit much better with it. She'd just have to bare with carrying it all night. If only it was longer. The size of it was the biggest she could find.
For people who knew her, the clothes she had decided to wear were nothing out of the ordinary. She didn't like to don the brands the other teenagers did. She preferred to stand out more. A sleeveless shirt with straps pulled off the shoulders to hang on her arms covered most of her upper torso, which was a rare sight. Every shirt she owned stopped somewhere above her stomach. This one fell a few inches below the waistline of the purple skirt fluttering around her legs. It was ruffled on the bottom and raised up on one side towards a little yellow bow. On her feet were a pair of her own slippers, a tiny heel giving her small frame a little height. Gold hoop earrings and jewelery banged together in a sweet sound from her neck, wrists, and ankles.
Chloe had disagreed with her choice of costume. Parisa, however, had stubbornly put her foot down. Sure, it was almost exactly the same to her normal dress. But few people knew her, if at all. She could afford to change her old clothes around into a costume. Besides, it wasn't like she'd normally wear this bandanna on her head or the skirt. And the shirt was far too long. So it was something she would only wear once a year.
The dark haired girl stepped through the doorway, turning her head this way and that as she scanned the decorations and people. Not a big turnout. But, hey. It was early, still.
Example of the shortest: Parisa's green eyes trailed over the dress once more at the comment about a tail. With most of her attention on the jewels, she'd only had a small glance at the bottom of the skirt. Now that she looked, she noticed that, up close, it looked a bit better than it did far away. Definitely like a fish tail. Not bad.
"It looks fine to me," she replied. "I could tell from over there." The frilled fortune teller shawl slipped down her arms, again. She pulled it back up to cover her shoulders. "I'd like to go see what they have in refreshments. Care to join me?" With one hand, she waved towards the table, her fingers with the red painted nails holding tight to the shawl.
Ability: I don't talk much in general, 'specially in more active threads. I'm quiet. But I do have a sense of responsibility when I'm apart of something and tend to do my best to make appearances often. Including trying to strike up conversations. Not that I hate talking to people. I'm just quiet by nature.
Far as getting people involved and ideas, I can be slow. When I come up with something, I like to get critic/suggestions from other people. I work faster when there is something on the chalkboard as opposed to a blank slate. I also get my ambition to do something when I get inspiration for a plot or idea. And I work better without the pressure of deadlines. I like my breaks to do other things and play games very much.
Activity: I come on Gaia every day for quite a few hours. Usually here during the day and on Ragnarok Online after supper. Unless Gaia or RO have something planned. It's dorky for me to say, but I'm in a guild that participates in the twice a week war between guilds over castles, and will be the co-leader of another for a different castle war soon. Far as obligations go until I get a job, those guilds are the only ones.
Online, Gaia and RO are the main two. I poke around in Breedables a lot, sometimes venture outside when my threads get slow. I'm not an employee in any other shops, nor plan to since I can't color well enough. I'm more a pixel artist.
Offline, I don't really do much. I'm not very social and enjoy my quiet time more than it. I write, draw, and play games most of the time. Doll sometimes. Fun stuff. ;D
How would you like to be paid? Pets or gold works for me. I'm addicted to both dressing my avvie and owning pretties. <3 I'm also good with nothing, since I'd be getting writing practice and experience.
Tell me a bit about yourself: Well, I covered that I'm quiet, enjoy games, writing, drawing, and being by myself. I'm friendly and tend to be more silently when I'm annoyed or something is bothering me. I've been into Breedables since '05 and took a few year break, so I don't really have as large a collection as other people do. I also only have one RP-required, which, by far, has to be my favorite part of B/C. Telling the life-story of someone from birth to adulthood is just awesome.
I want to get to know you better, since I think we'll work better together that way.
Anything else? Not that I can think of.


Frezir
I'm a Roleplay Master!
Sample: It was a calm night on Evereau. A light breeze began to pick up in the hills. A young boy Nova's ear's twitched as he noticed the change in the wind. "It's gonna get colder. I better find somewhere to keep warm for the night." He said as he looked up at the crescent moon with his luminous golden eyes. He dashed off into the forest, past the trees in hope to find a hide-away from the cold night air. Hiss black fur blended in with the darkness that the trees made from blocking the moon. He looked as if he were a ghost, haunting the woods. He slowed to a stop when he noticed small paw marks on the ground. He bent his head down to see who's tracks they were. " These are my tracks. i must be going in circles." He said with a saddened look upon his face. His black and orange tipped ears dropped down. He sighed. Then his ears perked back up when he heard something frightening. "Hello? Is anyone there?" He called out, hoping that he wasn't alone. After waiting for a few moments he headed out again. A calm walk this time. He passed many trees that looked all the same. He slowed to a stop once more when he saw a beautiful flower under a thorn bush. "Why hello there little flower." He said playful as he just stared at it beauty. There were some berries in the bush. "Maybe a little snack will help me get out of this cold." He said with a smile. He began to pluck the bright crimson berries with his black paws. After he ate enough to fill him up, he heard a twig snap. This had startled him and stepped on one of the berries. It popped under the pressure of his paw and stained his paw. He quickly darted for any signs of cover. He found an old tree that had a hole dug under it. "I should be safe in here for the night." He said as he climbed down the hole. He listened out for any unfamiliar sounds. There was nothing, nothing to be afraid of. He began to curl up into a little ball. He closed his eyes and went to sleep slowly. He was safe for the night and nothing would harm him.
Ability: I love to RP with different people and I come up with some ideas for plots. I'm a very outgoing person in RL so that shouldn't be a problem.
Activity: I'm on Gaia almost everyday, but that can change when I get a job or have more classes in college.
How would you like to be paid? freebies are awesome!
Tell me a bit about yourself: Well you can call me Mana instead of Frezir if you'd like. I do RP in another B/C thread, but I don't mind RPing in other places as well. Love arts on Gaia. I play video games and listen to my ipod.
Anything else? none that I can think of
Storage post! This is just for Aeth's records. :3

:: Applications Received!

Mini Mage of DHOOM
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Mini
Theme: Standing still
Concept: I'm thinking a 'clock' theme. Not too sure about the colors yet but I would have a clock around one eye, with fancy old time numbers. Sort of an alice in wonderland nightmare ^^

Samples: one two
Price: Well I would love to get a free custom lol -Pokes sig.- Buuuuut... I don't see that being reasonable. Really 80% of any sort of money made off it would be fine with me.
Anything else? Well.. liked I said I am questing for a dreamer ^^ that's about it lol.




PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING, PAID:

harpsdesire
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: harpsdesire
Theme: Puzzle
Concept: I'd like to use a design of interlocking bright colors, almost like puzzle peices, but more organically shaped.

Theme: Break Away
Concept: I would use a lightly-texture background, with a chain-like marking wrapping around the pet's limbs. In one area the chain would be broken, and a starburst/heart design would be in the broken area. Alternately, I could edit a broken chain dragging behind the pet.

Theme: In the Storm
Concept: This pet would be mostly stormy gray, with clouds, raindrops and perhaps a bolt of lightning.

Samples:
-Dragon-
-Edited Dragon-
-More heavily Edited Dragon-
-Colored Avvie Art-
-Tia Dalma-
-Colored Avvie Art 2-

Price: I'd like 80% if paid, 5k (unedited) or 8-10k (edited) if used for a free game.
Anything else? I have about 400 more samples, if you are undecided about my coloring ability. Also, In the samples, None of the lines are my own work. Shading is mine, or edited by me, except for the 1st dragon.


Scaramouche Fandango
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name:
Theme: Can You Hear Me?
Concept: A nice blue pet, with blue bars going up his side getting taller and taller... like cell phone reception bars. And a little red check-like mark on his head, like the logo of a certain cell phone company that may use a similar slogan.

Theme: Can You Hold My Hand?
Concept: A female in shades of peach and tan, with a sweet pink paw dotted with slightly darker hearts, and a little blush in her cheeks

Theme: Tower
Concept: This pet would be blue fading to really pale blue with white streaks. There would be smears to indicate the feeling of going upwards, higher and higher.

Theme: Introduction
Concept: To me, an introduction is something that should make a bold impression. Thus, this pet would be nearly black (base color), with bright markings in colors like turquoise and magenta. There would be fun spots on the back and rump, nifty stripes on the tail, and bright, mismatched eyes, ensuring that this was a pet you would never forget.

Samples:
Khensu Family from SoR
Spottybutt Jackal (Yes, I know I forgot that line color when I saved the PNG, but I fixed it on his cert.)

Price: Hmm... 90% of raffles and auctions, and whatever you pay the others for flatsales and things. Free events are free, but if you use all of mine for free events, I'd kinda like to be able to color up one for myself.

Anything else? 3nodding is my favorite emoticon. I thought I would just share that li'l factoid 'bout meself.


zephira738
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Zephira, Zephy, Zephy, Z... I get lots of nicknames, I'm really not to fussed.


Theme: Under the rain
Concept: Dark blue on the bottom with pale grey/white at the top of its body, as though the color were being washed away, with marks as though raindrops were spattering the body. I fancy a Sim'arei male for it, and would like to edit his expression a bit to look gloomier.
Price: 4k

Theme: Fairy Tale
Concept: Soft pastels, maybe purplish, with blends of other light and warm colors, and speckles of gold/silver 'fairy dust' swirled in. I'd like to edit wings and butterfly antennae onto the pet if possible, most likely the wings will be semi-transparent. I'd use a Coty female for this one.
Price: 6k without edits, maybe 10k with.

Theme: Precious Treasure
Concept: White body, with golden markings (swirling tribal-ish). Heavy editing, gold and gems draped across and perhaps a chest behind. A Komali or Sim'arei female would be my preference, though this idea would work easily enough with any of them
Price: the race's flatsale price without edits, maybe 12k with.


Samples:Unless otherwise noted, all coloring/lines were done by me. Most other stuff is on my DA

Anything else? I'd love to color for you more often, the lines look so cute, but my program can't handle PSD files and I'm a little too broke to get a new one just yet. Happy to guest color if you ever need a hand again though! Also, prices are my best guess, I tried to match the shop mostly. I'm really not to fussed about it, if you think a different price (lower or higher) would be better, I don't bite heart


Ayashe
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Ayashe

Theme: Do Not Disturb
Concept: A pet that has glassy eyes that look like marble and a body that is textured like stone. It could look like granite, with maybe a little moss and dirt near the bottom. This creature hasn't been disturbed for years and it looks content to keep it that way.

Samples: Can I just post my shop?

Price: I wouldn't mind getting to color an adult and keeping it. (outside of the event, like a cyo custom or something. no edits.) or otherwise I don't want anything. Including gold.

Anything else? I work fast. I can color in lines if you want. I've been a colorist for years, and started digital painting instead, so coloring lineart is very easy and basic for me. I can do line edits and enjoy them, which is a shame for this event, I guess. x3


PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN PAID:

Milorganite
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Milo
Theme: I can't
Concept: I'd do it on the male komali lines. On his forehead would be a bright star/spot, symbolizing whatever he's striving for... the rest of him would be a dark, foreboding, forest-y green, symbolizing being lost or trapped. Chain or rope patterns would criss-cross his body, as well as keyhole patterns. His face would have a dark mask.
Samples: [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Price: nuffin'
Anything else? noooooope


Red_Hope
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Red_Hope
Theme: Keeping a Secret
Concept: Going with the expression of “My mouth is sealed” and making a series of lines and x’es to make it seem like the little female’s mouth is literally sealed shut. The colors would otherwise be pale with darker markings to indicate both innocent secrets and sinister ones.
Samples: Misfortune and Something else
Price: If used for auction or something, maybe 50% of the price, but a free custom would be nice too~ For raffles, maybe half the total after all is said and done, and for free games, well, customs are always nice.
Anything else? I like the lines and would like to color more~

Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Red_Hope
Theme: Hero
Concept: Going off of ‘tall, dark, and handsome’ this male is probably going to be a brown color, with a shield or something on his side or face. His ‘hair’ will be black, and the shield will have an eagle or something to represent the police/fire department
Samples: Misfortune and Something else
Price: If used for auction or something, maybe 50% of the price, but a free custom would be nice too~ For raffles, maybe half the total after all is said and done, and for free games, well, customs are always nice.
Anything else? ----

Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Red_Hope
Theme: Misfortune
Concept: A dark purple base maybe, with black markings to signify crying, with more markings to keep it from looking too plain maybe...
Samples: Dum Dee Dum
Price: Given that prices are usually predetermined when it comes to being paid, I'm not too sure what I'd be willing to ask for... >>;; A free pet would be nice, but maybe... 75% for an auction... 50% for a raffle/flaffle... and a flat out 2K for a free game...? ^^;;
Anything else? If given a chance, I can easily get better and be more creative with my patterns! XD


K y l e C__xx
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Kyle. c:
Theme: Puzzle
Concept: I was thinking a jigsaw-like pattern that applies to the contours of the pet. Like, not just a jigsaw puzzle image layered over the pet, but a hand-drawn jigsaw that fits to the pet. c:
Samples: It's three Gryphons!
Price: If it's okay, would a cosplay (OC) pet from be okay in return for these three colorings? It wouldn’t require that much editing, but I figured it’s classed under cosplay because it’s an OC. C:

Theme: Foreign
Concept: I was thinking along the lines of a dark, earthy colored pet with bright-colored designs in a tribal style. C:

Theme: Obsession
Concept: I was wanting to do a really creepy pet for this one, so feel free to deny this idea, as I do have some other ideas for this theme. I want to do a very pale colored pet with scars and beading blood, and maybe some gothic tattoos to give it some detail.
Anything else? This section is for you to let me know any extra information that is important, or you think might boost your chances, or really for whatever you want to put.


saedusk
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: saedusk
Theme: Danger Ahead
Concept: Lissome Llia's sign and three colors idea; probably male :: I imagine the exclamation point as a mask-like element covering the face and extending into a line down the back and tail. Red lines/bands would also be a reoccurring theme. Maybe put more black or another exclamation mark-like object somewhere, the the use of black would be sparing.
Theme: Starvation
Concept: A basic idea of starvation plus some; probably female :: She'd have coloring to show protruding ribs, sunk in eyes. I also see a dark color used around the edges with some sort of textured look, like she was being eaten away from the outside. A slight edit to change the expression to something less adorably happy. :P
Samples: @ @ @
Price: Well, not much. Rather than gold, I'd prefer a pet. <3 But as for gold... 5k flat rate for anything but free events. And maybe 1k for free events.
Anything else? I'm new? 8D *brick'd* Uhm... I really like this idea, although I'm not creative enough to come up with ideas for the more abstract ones. xD I like coloring... I use awesome faces ( :B LOLYA ) a lot... I ramble...


caustic 0_0
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: caustic 0_0

Theme: Dying
Concept: Ribcage/skeleton design, perhaps in coloration similar to the death's head moth

Theme: Relaxation
Concept: Zen garden inspired, curving patterns and natural colors. Ref

Samples:
Price: Free if free, if paid then 70% is cool
Anything else? <3


Felmino
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna GUEST color for you!

Name: Felmino, aka Fel
Theme:Mother Nature
Concept: wreath of flowers, blossom petaled pattern, various shades of green/brown bark, leaves, branches possibly. If you don't want any edits I can stick to patterns, but I think they'd enhance this particular theme.

Theme: Dreams
Concept: Nebulous clouds, soft rainbow swirls and dappled shapes, possibly with a hint of darker things (nightmares). Bizarre and cryptic mixes.

Theme:Out Cold
Concept: Icy/frozen, in swirls of winter snow, crystals. Same species but opposite gender to one below.

Theme:Though the Fire
Concept: Ash, flame and smoke for this one, glowing ember eyes and general hotness.

(I'd be doing two of each species, two of each gender, so things are nice and balanced.)

ALSO DID HAPPINESS AND TEARS

Samples: Aerithe Portfolio Most Recent Auction Old Stuff (profile)
Price: For example, you may request 80% of profits if used for an auction or raffle, but a flat 5k fee if used for a free game. <- That'd be fine.
Anything else? Very happily employed as co-owner of Aerithe, so not looking for anything permanent, just a nice change of pace for a day or two. wink


Celestriakle
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Celestriakle

Theme: Advertisement
Concept: I was thinking an eyedazzle of bright red and yellow zigzag circles, like on those super old and cheesy cartoon ad explosions, all centered from the left eye of a boy. The eyes would be a cool, light blue.

Theme: Breaking all the Rules
Concept: A dark colored pet, for malicious endevours, with strings of silver across it, all but 1-3 being broken, for the rules. The unbroken would be an all important rule, the highest value.

Samples: New one~ and Flame boy~
Price: Errr... Just basic what any other colorist would get? Or mayhaps a freebie? I dunno~
Anything else? These are all thought of on the Sim's lines. Also, for some of these themes, I think it would be nice to have slightly altered lines, though I prolly wouldn't be able to do this myself. (I could try though!) Altered as in the expressions are different. The pets look so happy! Not quite so fitting if we're going for the theme of 'rejection' or 'starvation'.


Shikai-Chan
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Shikai-chan
Theme: Doesn't matter. Any (except Family. don't like that theme. XD)
Concept: Use some of that Shikai-insanity! Who knows. XD

THEMES ACCEPTED FOR: Rejection and Expectations

Samples: Sess, Dal, Milo

Price: 90% for auctions/raffles. Eh~ and at least 50% for anything else. Free events... Well, free! XD Doesn't really matter what you want to set the price at. :] Pure gold preferred.

Anything else? They sky's the limit!


purplerosesbeauty
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Purplerosesbeauty
Theme: A kick in the head
Concept: Dark blue/ purple colors, like a bruise on the head. Maybe a splash of red, like blood in there too. The eye might look a little pink with dark circle on one eye. And maybe a darker color or tanish color on the rest of the body.
Samples: [In here >w<]
Price: Maybe the ability to color one for myself... or get a custom. *shifty eyes*
Anything else? *likes to color* I cab think of other things I'd do for others too @__@


Falcon Samilka
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Falcon Samilka
Samples: My own art. My own art. My own art.
Voronwe pet. Voronwe pet. Voronwe pet. Voronwe pet.
Price: 80% of the profits made off my colourings would be nice. If more than one is used in a free game, I also wouldn't say no to some sort of pet-based compensation. ^_~
Anything else? ...Not really. I'm good at colour co-ordination; using a template so a pet doesn't appear "muddy", shiny or bland in it's colouring. I prefer to do hand-done patterns to brush-work. I put a lot of effort into my colourings. Ah- nothing else to say, really?

I moved the themes and concepts to the bottom, so I can do multiple ones without confusing matters.

Theme: Seeking Solace
Concept: I'd take the two colours which come to mind with this- the blackness of needing solace, and the soft pink of the inner warmth when you receive it. The pet would have it's body pink; with the legs, tail and ears (the "points" wink in black. Each area would have markings in the other colour; because as you seek solace, there's the hope of finding it; and when you find it, there's the negativity that drove you to seek it.

ALSO COLORED Teamwork and Family.

Theme & Concept: Any from ideas list


shaiya_the_dark
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name:
Theme: Are you Challenging me?
Concept: Aggression wow...for this one i'd go with bold reds,dark blues,purples maybe even a golden yellow as the theme makes me think of someone like Scar(lion king) or Ragnar Sturlusson(the polar bear from golden compass), i would probably give one maybe two of them scars also i'd love to play around with the eye color maybe give it a glowing menacing look.
Samples:1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / line art by Kumiho spirit / line art by kumiho spirit / from my sprite shop / another sprite *and i can muster up some more art if needed ^.^
Price: hmm if for auction or raffle 80% sounds good, if its for a free game then i don't mind it being free ^.^ as for flatsales and such maybe 50% would work totally up to the owner of the shop also i'd rather pure gold seems to be the easiest ^.^
Anything else? Hmm......well i'll only say this once.....i'm a part of Gaia's secret ninja society and if i don't get chosen i'll make sure to unleash my army of pixel eating rainbow colored dust mites to eat your pixelated flesh.....wait that society is s'posed to be secret...dang i think they might kick me out now..*sigh* i make a horrible villian ^______^


Bouncy_Pineapple
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: Bouncy_Pineapple
Theme: All That I Have
Concept: A black or very dark blue/purple body, with something glowing brightly in the middle that's gold/pink/some other heartwarming color. It could be a flower, star, heart, whichever I decide. And the dark background may have some faint stars or something so it looks like the object is floating in outer space.
Theme: No Way Out
Idea: This Sim'Arei is wrapped in chains, but it is only a pattern on the fur and not an actual edit. Eyes are a pale gray, and he or she is gradient-coloured all the way to a black tail. There might be occasional stray patches of brilliant colour along the way, suggesting that this creature once had potential before he/she was drained of hope. A portrayal of how important a positive mindset is - to keep thinking there are no alternatives to anything be it a dreary job or a doomed marriage is to waste one's own life and reduce it to sheer dullness.
Samples: x x x x x x x I can definitely dig up more if I need to...
Price: For any paid events, I'd like at least 80%. For any free events, I won't demand any profits but I might ask to color myself on. ^^
Anything else? I'm a fairly busy person but I can color things rather quickly. And this is such an interesting idea. ^_^


kitsune_reflection
Ooh! Ooh! I wanna color for you!

Name: kitsune_reflection
Theme: Keeping a Secret
Concept: Since you have two female komali left, I'll do a female komali for this one.

Without edits, I would color the body like a treasure map, with a dashed line leading to the back right leg where I'll make it look like the map has been torn off. The bottom of the leg will be colored differently than the rest of the body, possibly like a wooden table.

With edits, instead of making it look like the corner of the map has been torn off, I'll use a bandage to hide the location of the treasure. I might add a few pieces of jewelry, but only if it looks nice. I'll probably also edit her expression to make her look somewhat devious.

Samples:
Godar Dragons: x x x x x x x x x
Dreamers: mirror, pen and paper, solitude
Deviant Art Account

Price: 80% sounds fine. If they're given away for free, then don't pay me. (This goes for ALL the colorings kitsune did!)
Anything else? Nope, not really.
