Want something drawn/painted? [NSFW]

Hey everyone, I'm an art student at ECU in NC. I'm in my third year and I'm getting a little tired of doing class assigned work. I'm looking for commissions from anyone for almost anything. Whether it be video game characters, movie moments, character art for something you're a part of, or t-rex's fighting f-14's (Everyone should see that painting :P) I'd like to take a shot at it. I'm posting some work i've done over the last two years i have hosted on flickr. I work mostly in oil paints or charcoal drawings though i have quite a bit of experience in digital "painting" (i just don't get to work digital for my program).

I love art, and i love creating things i think people will enjoy. On the flip side i'm more of an illustrator than an artist and i need requests or at least someone to point me in a direction, so here i am. i hope there's an interest on the pa boards for this :/

Because i forgot the first time :( This thread is not about paid transactions, i don't want money for this. Also, if there are any other artists interested in taking any requests i think this thread could serve that purpose! I simply want a reason to do more work and i love to work on your ideas.

Most of the images i'm posting are figurative. I love to do portraits and character design. I'm also a huge admirer of ashley wood (some of you may recognize a few of the images as attempted studies of his work) But this does not limit me from doing animals, creatures, or environments (i just don't have any personal examples at the moment)

These first few drawings are from a set of portraits i did of my friends:

A pair of oil paintings:

This one is an in-progress portrait of my mother. I'm just hitting the final value block in and was starting the flesh tone in the face when i stopped.

These are a single image and details of the faces. It was a self portrait assignment that i chose to stylize:

An abstraction in Acrylic:

In class figure drawings, the first two are longer poses, around 15 minutes. the following 3 are quick gestures ranging from 1 minute to 5 minutes.

These last couple are water colors with some kind of ink drawing preliminary.

    Might want to clarify that you don't want any money for these commissions, which is why I approved this.

    Could you paint Oakland Raiders linebacker Bill Romanowski fending off a wild, flaming black steed, in a mystical snowcapped mountain setting?

    Pm's would work well, although it's always fun to see communal suggestions. Feel free to pm me if you have a request.

    as to rolo's request:

    i guess we'll see. the steed and the raider should be no problem (relatively) the snow capped mountain setting will be the true test :P

    I don't think i can do that for two reasons, first and really most importantly i haven't seen those movies. all i know about them is that it involves clint eastwood and an orangutan. Possibly, this may be all i need to know. Secondly, i'm inclined to not do this because all my ideas would just be some form of image making both clint eastwood and the orangutan look bad ass, and lets face it, that cover art already covers it.

    i don't claim to be able to top the look of determination on that man's face.


    If there's something specific about the movie i don't know because i haven't experienced them, let me know. But on face value i'm going to have to decline.

    i almost read that as "i don't want to draw Clint Eastwood and a Urangutan in a car"

    heh, imagine that.

    i would love to see your take on my Killer Pink Fluffies. Here's a pic of them. They are brutal killers who travel in packs. They like to kill people, but have a sense of humor about it.
    They also die pretty easy and messy.

    haha, neat. I've gotten a good number of quests by pm and i'm trying to hit everything in relative order that i received it. Some projects are bigger than others though and i'll post things in progress as i go. I'm working hardest on the romanowski image currently and hope to have a line/ink version up by this weekend. The coloring process will take much longer.

    as for the killer pink fluffies: are these some kind of mutated rabbit? I'm just guessing by the "ears" and feet. If you gave me more information about what they are i might be able to do something different with them. If not I could just take the current design and twist it a little. I do have a deep love for the morbid and obscure.

    clearly i have missed a meme D:

    Edit: upon further research i have found the chronicle of this here: http://andrewhussie.blogspot.com/2009/01/need-for-steed.html

    I'm sure others are aware, but for anyone else who had no clue that this was a thing on the internet, well here you go. The story is worth reading, especially for some of the images later on...

    also, if 425 dollars were paid for that piece, well. I guess i'm just speechless.

    in light of recent discoveries i clearly could not copy a successfully sold piece of artwork. thanks for the joke rolo.

    sadly i could never take credit for that image. I hope you were not convinced for a minute to believe that was my work.

    it is clearly far too awesome. I'm sorry for your confusion. Blame rolo. I know i do

    They are actually alien creatures, but they do have large feet, and big ears.
