Welcome to Avapingu Central

Here is where avapingus will be bought, sold, and posted for pick-up.
What's an avapingu?, you ask? Well, an avapingu is a hand-drawn picture of your avatar's clothes and accessories on the body of a penguin.

Sounds cute, right? Well scroll, down, buddy, and order yours today!

What to do in this thread:

1.)Don't bump. This thread doesn't need constant bumping unless there's an auction happening. Feel free to post anything avapingu-related, though. In examply you can post "i luv penguins!" or "this is cool!", but please don't fill my pages with bumps. Only I can do that razz
2.)Post any questions you have. Don't feel stupid asking questions because No question is dumb when it comes to comissioned art.
3.)Come here to pick up your avapingu once I've PMed you that I'm done.

How to purchase an avapingu:
1.)Post your questions here. If I do not respond after a few days, you can PM them to me.
2.)Once you've decided you want one, post a picture of your avatar in the desired outfit, plus tell me anything in particular you want on it (i.e. "please include my fairie wings!" etc.). List all the add-ons and the type of drawing you're ordering, and add up the total cost of the drawing.
3.)Send me a trade for however much gold the avapingu you're ordering costs. Make sure to include the word AVAPINGU in the name of the trade so I don't mistake it for a donation.
4.)Once I've accepted your trade and PMed you, come back to this thread to pick up your art.
5.)Post fifty times how much you love it. Then tell all your friends to buy one. xd anyone who refers their friends will be loved forever. Plus you might get free/discounted stuff in the future ^.^

Avapingu Prices:
standard::..600
couple::..1000
cosplay::..750
+++custom add-ons+++
background::..50-100 (depends on diffuculty level)
colored background::..100-300 (ditto)
saying or phrase::..25
color::..50 EACH

About the color thingy:
I'm really not into coloring my art, so most avapingus are just black and white drawings. However, if you pay extra, I will include up to THREE colors in your drawing. I'll only color the items on your avatar
Say your avapingu is wearing a red ribbon and red vest, and the color you chose to include was red, then I will color the ribbon and vest. But I will leave everything that isn't supposed to be red black and white.

Concerning backgrounds:
If you want a background, please post your idea first. Then I'll post back telling you if it's doable or not and what the price will be. Keep in mind that other than penguins and the sort, I'm really not that skilled, so don't expect me to draw something super detailed or complicated. Also include in that post whether you want the background colored or not. (Note: You do not need to specify colors when ordering a color background. I'll color it in as needed.)

Oh, and here's a sample of a basic avapingu for ya'll:

I'll add more when I get more commissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quote:

Avapingus??? WTF?

Yes, I sell avapingus. Avatar penguins. Deal.

Quote:

So these are hand drawn?

Yep.

Quote:

What's taking mine so long???

Dude, chill. Sometimes I can't get to a scanner or computer or something. You'll get it as soon as it's ready, ok?

Quote:

can i have 1? for free??

Not unless I'm really bored and I like you. And just so you know, anyone who asks for a free avapingu will DEFINETLY not get one.

Quote:

Cool! You draw couples! Can you draw a girl with a girl?

Yup yup 3nodding . I'll draw any two people together, whether you're best freinds, a couple or just two people who wanted the discount. Also with the couple pictures I draw a heart over your heads ^.^

Quote:

What do you mean by cosplay?

I mean that you order one just like a regular avapingu, but instead of a picture of you, post a picture of your desired anime/video game/manga/whatever character, plus their name. I'll add as much of their personality to the drawing as I can.

Quote:

Hey, what gives? You didn't draw my ____ on my avapingu!

Sorry, but if it was hard to draw (like pants or skirts) and you didn't request that it was added, I might not have drawn the accesory you wanted. Tough Luck.

Quote:

When will you do events?

Once the shop's got enough attention, I'll start doing seasonal auctions, sales and giveaways. Also, sometimes I'll submit a drawing to a group auction or charity, so keep your eyes peeled.

Quote:

What if I want more than three colors on my ava-thingy?

Check with me first, here on the thread, and we'll see if it's ok.

Quote:

Can I order something not on your list? I have a good idea!

Depends. Post your idea first and we'll discuss it on the thread. If you have a really good idea, I might even add it to the list.

Quote:

My avapingu looks like sh*t!!

Hey, that's mean. I'm putting you on the blacklist.

Quote:

I decided I want to use a different outfit for my avapingu, can I change it and not have to buy another one?

Sorry, no, but if you're nice you might get a discount. whee

No, I just only needed two samples. I'm thinking of making a list with links to all the finished avapingus though. No, I didn't forget you whee
