WORLD ONE: Uneasy Lies
Status: Looking for art! Particularly scenes and/or couple/group pictures.
I'm happy to give info on character relationships and ideas for scenes if you're interested.


OC #1: LILITH

The character's name is Lilith, though for some reason, she will occasionally go by the nickname "Gomez".

Lilith is a very, VERY strange person. She often speaks total nonsense, taking words out of context and flipping them around, spouting puns and so forth, or just generally being confusing. She usually seems to be in a fairly good mood, or at least pretends to be. It's often difficult to tell if she's completely insane, or just having fun playing with people. Occasionally seeming almost oblivious to the world around her, she can also be easily distracted, if something catches her interest.

My only reference so far:
User Image

As for what she looks like, she has very short black or dark brown hair (possibly with hints of colored dye--she probably changes it quite often), though I don't know the exact style. Lilith looks to be in her mid-20's to mid-30's, is fairly striking, and you could say beautiful, but not really "hot" or incredibly beautiful--she's more the type where once you get to know her, if her unique personality appeals to you, you'd probably find very her quite attractive, but if you don't really know her, she's probably not too remarkable. She has nice (though somewhat thin) lips, fairly light skin, and kind of wide, clever (best word I can think of to describe them) green eyes. She's often wearing a somewhat vacant, silly, unnerving smile, and will sometimes stare at you as if trying to hypnotize you. She has kind of an average build, not skinny, but not overweight, with appropriately sized (not huge, please!) breasts. I don't have an exact picture of her in my mind yet, so I don't think you can really go wrong if you follow these guidelines.

As for the outfit—complicated, and colorful. Greens, blues, and yellows are her favorites, though with some red, orange, and purple. I see her wearing layers and strange, uneven cuts, with lots of belts, beads, straps, buttons, ect. She loves trinkets and shiny things. If she were to wear a skirt or dress, it would be over pants or thick leggings, and wouldn't be too long or tight, so that she can move around easily. Her style is sort of a clash between tomboyish and "feminine", and while she'll wear flattering clothing, she doesn't dress very revealingly (low cut things or a few slashes or holes that reveal some skin are alright, but for god's sake don't put her in a tiny bikini top).

She also carries a weapon—a large double-headed war hammer. I don't know exactly what that looks like, either, but it's pretty colorful. The below reference was just a doodle, feel free to change it some.

Only hammer reference.


Let me know if you have any questions!


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


OC #2: FRED

Fred is technically a mutant, though the only really "inhuman" thing about him is the eyestalk that grows out of his head. He's fairly tall, pale, and skinny, almost gaunt, and about the same age as Lilith. He shaves his head, because he's bald around where his eyestalk comes out, anyway. The eye itself seems to almost have a "mind of its own", and kind of annoys him, though he can control and see through it if he really concentrates.

FOUR

Fred is a fairly polite, introverted man, who likes to be helpful and do good, but his reluctance to get involved in things holds him back from taking action quite a bit.

He usually dresses kind of nicely, though not fancy, and his clothes seem pretty well-worn, like he's been traveling a lot. He often wears a fairly long overcoat that makes him look almost like he's waiting for a train. His clothes are mostly in rather boring, drab colors, like black, grays, and beige. He occasionally wears a homburg hat to hide his mutation.

Let me know if you have any questions!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


OC #3: CALEB

Caleb is a scruffy little orphan that has escaped an orphanage and is now living by himself on the streets. He's about 10, pretty small, and always dirty (though you can draw him cleaned up, if you want). He has short, messy, sandy-blonde hair, and a slightly mischievous look in his eyes. He's pretty timid a lot of the time, but gets a little bolder sometimes.

References:

TWO

He is ALWAYS wearing a giant forest greenish sweater, though I don't know exactly what the weave of the sweater looks like. If you draw him cleaned up, you can have him not wearing it, though. Under the sweater he wears pants and a shirt, both plain, dirty, and very well-worn (remember, he's been living on the street!). He also has a large top hat that he wears sometimes, either sitting up on his ears, nearly falling over his face, or if you're feeling very silly, actually over his face, with two eye holes cut into it.

Caleb tends to stay back out of sight and off the open streets whenever possible, sneaking around instead in alleys and so forth. He's particularly fond of dumpsters, and sleeps/dines in them rather of a lot.

Let me know if you have any questions!

OC #2: LUCY


Only have a tektek reference so far, unfortunately (it's pretty accurate, though):
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Lucy is a soldier, serious and tough, living in a semi-post-apocalyptic future world. She has straight black hair that she often ties in a simple ponytail, sharp blue eyes, a serious but not unattractive face with a strong jaw and a scar down across her left eye, and usually wears a little make-up consisting of a little black eyeliner and dark red lipstick, but she can be drawn with or without make-up. She's fairly lean and toned, and stands about 5'7" tall or so. She also has a black and purple lily (like this, but black and purple) tattooed on her upper left arm. She has a few other scars here and there, too, since she's been in her share of fights.

Lucy usually dresses very simply--I mostly draw her in a white/off-white tanktop and green cargo pants with a black belt (she can have a knife in her belt if you want) and a fingerless black glove up to her elbow on her good arm (this glove is supposed to have a very small blade she can have come out, as a weapon for close combat), but you can change it around a little as long as the feeling of "soldierish, simple, and practical" stays the same. She's not looking to attract attention with the way she dresses. She also smokes, so if you wanna draw her with a cigarette, go ahead.

The biggest thing to note about Lucy is that her right arm was ripped off above the elbow a while back, and has been replace with a GUN. You can follow the design in the tektek a bit for it if you want, or make some of it up yourself--but it should attach into her arm a little above halfway between her shoulder and elbow, be able to bend at the elbow, and look quite a bit like a double-barreled shotgun from the elbow down, with a sight on top. The whole thing should look kind of complicated, with bits of wire and buttons and stuff showing maybe--having a gun for an arm isn't a common thing in her world, this was an experiment, pieced together most from scraps.

Let me know if you have any questions!

OC: THE MYSTERIOUS BEEKEEPER!

That's right, THE MYSTERIOUS BEEKEEPER!

User Image

The Mysterious Beekeeper is just that...mysterious.

No one knows who, or even for sure what, she is.

Just know, if you enter the Shadow Apiary...be prepared.

User Image
She has the same short red hair, gray eyes, and skin color as Jaudaran avatars 2, 11, 13, ect.
Hmmm...

If you want to draw for me, please post the following information:

Samples
Prices
What you're interested in drawing (Avatar/OC, and #. You can list multiple ones--in fact, I prefer it.)
Comments/anything else I should know


I'd also appreciate if you'd start your post with this, so it's easier to spot if chatting and bumping is going on:

[IMG]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc115/Jaudaran/Bees/beekeepermarketbanner8.jpg[/IMG]


I'm generally not interested in auctions, as they tend to get too expensive.

If you want me to look at your shop, I'd appreciate if you'd give me at least a little information first (something from the list above, at least comments on your style or why you want to draw me). I'd prefer you to post all the info here, but I am willing to look at shops.

I get very annoyed by people that jump in, say only "check out my shop", and disappear. That makes a bad impression, as it makes me feel like you're probably just going around to every request you can find and spam-advertising.

I may be interested in art trades. I'll decided on a case-by-case basis, and I'll decide based on more factors than just how your art compares to mine (what I mean is, I may say yes to some people "worse" than me, or no to some people better than me). So go ahead and give it a shot.
