Housepets!

Because I've been asked several times by people who will apparently string me up by my toenails if I don't, I am offering more board-exclusive commissions as part of my Iron Artist run. These do NOT have to be Housepets style but as I am sure will happen, you'll ignore that and ask for it anyway. They're NOT going to be colored, they are just pencil drawings.

There are TEN slots open, numbers 61-70. Each of these are for SINGLE CHARACTERS, and you cen get either a full-body picture or an upper-body bust.

If you would like a slot, please reply below with a short description of your character or a link to their picture; save the in-depth stuff for the email please.

Payment is upfront and through paypal. The base price is $21 (that's USD, folks!)

You can get a discount of 5 dollars (so the price will be $16) if your character matches at least one of these criteria: (subject to change in later batches)

Female (overtly so)
Tauric (lower half different from base species okay, but actual quads only, and no human upper-body)
Kangaroo
Deer
Rat/Mouse
Siamese Cat
Doberman

AND is NOT a significant hybrid--that is, does not have such radical departures from the base species that the result is unlike the base species. Small things like horns, ears and (small) wings are okay.

Remember, you can ask for things other than the list above, including hybrids, but it will cost the full $21.

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING

When I select you, I will give you a number in the form of [##]; when you email me with your full description and refrences, please put this in the subject line:

Iron Artist [##] (name)

WITH the brackets around the number, and your DA or FA name in place of (name) and NOT any other name. If you do not do this I will bounce your email back to you until you correct it. (I am trying to keep everything organized for my sanity so please bear with me here).

IF YOU DO IT RIGHT, IT WILL LOOK SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

Iron Artist [00] rickgriffin

Do NOT email me until I have given you a number, and do NOT attempt to pay until I give you the okay over email.

For text descriptions, please keep them SHORT and please abide by the suggestions outlined here. You do not get any do-overs so please make sure you say exactly what you mean. If you have picture-references, please include them or at least link to the BEST or MOST RELEVANT ones.

Keep in mind that the pose will come out better if you keep it loose and simple, and if you leave it up to me, TELL me what the character's disposition is. (this does not require a novel! This is like two sentences worth of stuff)

So uh, I think that's it. My email is [email protected], but remember do NOT email me until you have a number.

May I have two?

Sure go ahead, you're numbers [61] and [62]

Also

If any of you folks come in and say "I'd like to have one, but I have no money". I will ban you.

Oh my God I've been waiting for this time for so long! i had 30$ stashed away in my sketchbook for this exact occasion. : D
I want a slot!

(is it by credit card? or something else? because we don't have paypal. )

You can do credit card through paypal, right?

Er, i don't know. Never really used PayPal. I'll give it a try though :>

Edit: okay, all set up. :B

Cool, you're [63]

If i were to do a Siamese cat, would the coloring have to be the same as a real-life one?

The first paragraph says they won't be colored.

Sleet wrote:The first paragraph says they won't be colored.

but what i meant was, the markings, as in, the markings be the same?

I would like to get one of these, if it's alright.

ArgentFlame wrote:I would like to get one of these, if it's alright.

You are [64]

And Zander, I don't know what you think qualifies as a siamese cat that does not look like a siamese cat

Can I take one, please?

And it would be okay if after I add colors, background and other details with it?

rickgriffin wrote:a person who is not ebly gets his reserved slot

Okay so I suppose since I've managed to get in here before they're all snapped up I can't really complain, but the principle is still there; I thought having a slot reserved meant that you didn't forget and then give the slot to someone else twice in a row *giggles*

Anyway I am just poking fun – I'd love it if you could give me a new new slot?

You obviously didn't get the hint. *chuckles*

You are [65] and yes you can.

Ebly wrote: Anyway I am just poking fun – I'd love it if you could give me a new new slot?

Of course silly, I knew these were going to go far too slow; you're [66]

I'd like to do this, I have the money and the account, but I haven't got the money in the account as of yet. My Mum says I can put it in around 15th November, but could I reserve a spot anyway?

May I have a number assigned to me, please?

Also, i'm guessing clothes on HP! style is possible, right?

No reason it's not

I have to pay through Pay-pal?
... I guess I can try to figure it out. I get money on the fifth, sign me up.

I have no idea which character I'd want to have drawn yet, but...I think I'm gonna nab that last slot, if that's okay.

Rick's FA and DA slots will be opening up around 1 PM Central Time today, so if you want to get in, just be quick with your mouse-clicking.

Ah fiddlesticks, I missed it. Hmmmm, would you be interested in an art trade Rick? Of course not right now, but maybe after the Iron Artist project?

It was open for three days! What were you doing!
