What does every artist absolutely despise? Getting out of practice, of course. Having their skills rust and lose their lustre is never an enterprising feeling, not by any means, and that, dear friends, is precisely the reason for this post.

I'm hoping to hone my skills a little more. I've noticed that I'm horrible with portraying anatomy and it is not as up to par as I would like it to be, especially in the case of drawing the male figure. Also, I need a lot more practice in drawing the folds of clothes, and in scenery... I don't wish to start off too complex, but I'm hoping that those who watch me or have known me and keep tabs might be interested in this.

I'm opening up requests for sketches and black and white drawings/finished art pieces. However, the most at a time I will take is TEN. I don't care if it is anime based, or if the request is based upon realism, just so long as (in the case of the latter) I am provided with a reference. I'll accept pairing requests to draw from any anime or television series or movie, etc, but, obviously in accordance to what DeviantART will and will not accept, I will not draw anything too grotesque. In other words, keep requests as tasteful as possible. Or else you won't get served.



RULES ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1» One request per person at a time (in other words, don't request something else until your first request has been completed and posted for your viewing pleasure).

2»» I will accept anime, realism, pairings, and most requests as long as they are tasteful (even the ungodly and awful requests that Mary Sues ask for, insert gagging sounds here). Anything that I don't believe to be acceptable I will discuss personally with you for further clarification and possible revision of the request.

3»»» I will draw Original Characters if a detailed description of the character is provided (this includes: physical description as well as personality).

4»»»» As these are for the practicing of my skills (request NOT commision), I will not be accepting forms of payment (excluding praise that inflates my ego, ahur). Therefore, not even upon request, will any of these images done be colored. So don't ask for them to be. I have no desire to practice coloring yet, nor do I have the time for that.

5»»»»» I'm totally expecting feedback. If the request you receive is not done to your liking, let me know and discuss with me what could be better, or even tell me what you really liked. If I am feeling generous, I might revise the finished product, or redo it entirely, or offer you a compensation sketch of some sort. :B

6»»»»»» While these rules are subject to change, please apply common sense to any requests made. Obviously I won't tolerate people stressing me out by wanting things done on their clock, since they are getting this done for free and I have a life of my own to lead, yadda yadda... You've been forewarned that shit might take me a bit, especially if you want a quality sketch or black and white piece. So deal.

7»»»»»»» Comment below with your requests. Duh. ♥

That's all for now. Kthnx.
