I did some re-arranging to my gallery. Since I'm getting more art where Sanra is completely different compared to her ingame counterpart, I decided to add all the general Sanra artwork into one album, and artwork which is directly based on her Guild Wars ingame look into another album.

Also uploaded my favourites from the 870k contest into my gallery.

Knock, knock. Anyone home?

I finally got 5. 6 if you include the sketch Nephelpito did for me. Oh, 7 if you include the derivative of Doc with Onchu.

Here is my gallery. My personal favorite is the one of Garreth and Lance by Nephelpito.

I've got a few more coming eventually.

If I give pictures of my Guild Wars characters, will anyone here make me pictures of them? I'm just wondering, because I love seeing other people's art work.

This is a group of people who buy art of their own characters, not do the art themselves [for the most part]. You'd be better off posting in one of the other threads, that are offering their art.

Well, 13's my lucky number and all, so you have my blessing

(You cant have my drops tho, need them for zerg -_- )

Scorpion, Best place to get an idea of who on the forums is running commissions is another of the stickied threads, but I'll post it here too

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10142345
Lyra's a busy person, so updates are sporadic, but it gives a good idea of where to start.

Oh and in other news, I went non-smite with Aimee 1st time ever last night. BL Prot is fun ^^

I really think we should have a OGAWC Meet and Greet at some point in the near future since we are growing

It would be nice to meet you all in game.

When is the best time/day for everyone?

I'm trying to post my commissions where everyone can see them, so I can be admitted to the club. Photobucket won't let me do it without a password. Can someone tell me how to do this please?

You have to register with Photobucket to get a gallery.

If you just wanna post pics without a password then use Imageshack

But you have to do it one at a time.

Woot, that's my baby up there!!! Welcome aboard.

I have a question...
Ryker and I have a couple of commissions that have both her and my ranger.
As long as my character is in the drawing, can I post it as well? or if she posts it, it means I can't?

Question for ya'll.

This will sound a bit weird but...due to the passing of my real life grey I'm looking for a special commission which includes him in place of my stalker. I'm not sure if I want him with my ranger, him with other pets, or him with mini's (yeah, I'm a bit indecisive lately). Here's the question...am I better off posting a "looking for special commission" thread or having a contest and seeing what the talented artists here at guru can come up with?

Thanks for the feedback. I better go look for Sectus' first contest (500k) to see how he set that one up.

If your ranger is your favorite character, I would go with that. I would also suggest that you ask for the highest resolution possible, because you can get the drawing printed on poster size photo paper for around 15 dollars,
a 20X30, which you can then frame and hang up as a tribute to your pet. I'm sure there are lots of places where you can do this, but this is where I have been printing some of our commissions, and they look AMAZING

Our bedroom is quickly filling up with some amazing talent. You can also get a T-Shirt, Mouse pad, mug... name it... they have it.

take care

These are the latest pieces I've got...

A new version of My ranger and pet by Starr the Insane, with a background change. I love the humor of having my ranger teach Buffalo how to use a bow.

Both our rangers by Eela. I love her style and love the drawing. It's tender and sweet. Another amazing drawing by a very talented artist. This was the first commission she did with 2 characters, and what a fine job she did.

And these are our pets, again a first for Eela, and another fine job. I love it.

These are 2 versions of the same drawing by Morag D. The First one was called Friends 'til the End, and my ranger and pet were depicted on our final sleep. The emotions I felt when I saw it are hard to describe. As much as I loved the picture, I felt so terribly sad looking at Buffalo, that I asked Morag to please make us sleep as in resting by adding a dream bubble over Buffalo. Now I see that the little butthead doesn't dream about me, he dreams with FOOD!!!

I also started thinking that I seriously need therapy

Both versions are fantastic, I honestly love them.

It's posted in Vinegars update, but this is too good to post just once

Actually since this is the proper thread, i think it belongs here. Anyway HUGE thanks to Vinegar for this, it's just :O

Thanks for the suggestions. We're a bit the same way here only we seem to have gone for exotics; 4 ratties, 2 rabbits, 1 chinchilla, and we adopted a new greyhound last week. She's not a replacement for Lance, but she has already worked her way into our hearts.

Here's my latest commission, this one by Torikae.

When I saw it for the first time, it made me laugh and clap. Lance is surprised that one of his 'stuffies' is alive.

Welcome to the club, Morag, and totally cute pic, Garreth.

I've felt a bit of push for some OGAWC gatherings, so I was thinking maybe we could set up not just a single date for activities, but a constant. Something like every Sunday, 2pm PST, or Mondays at 6:30pm, or something like that [not those times exactly, just examples]. If you guys wanna leave what times are best for you, I'll try to sort something out.
