Due to my slooooowness and long waiting list and way too many requests for special commissions, I've decided to do a couple freebies and an auction.

Rules

FREEBIES:Post here if you want freebies. Please make the post short, if you are going to post a bio, make it one paragraph or shorter, or I might not read it. Put some kind of picture of your character or w/e you want me to draw in the post. You can link the rest, but I'd like to see if I like the character enough to draw immediately I will base my decision on which one to draw on three factors: How interesting I find your characters (Main factor) What I feel like drawing at the time What song you attach to your request :P Yes, this means you will have to name some kind of song to go along with your character. Make it something that fits. This isn't entirely important; really it's just to amuse me and give some variety :P

In case people wonder what I enjoy:
Electronica/Trance/Metal/ProgRock/Alternative/ContemporaryOrchestral/VideoGameSoundtracks
But really, anything is fine except Reggae/PopularRap. Can't stand those :\

If you already have a request in my commission thread, you may request freebies here as well, by either posting a new request, or just linking your post and attaching a song name.

I reserve total artistic freedom for freebies. This WILL mean your character could be turned into a giant nine-headed flesh-eating potato. So please, if you don't want that happening, don't post here

The actual pieces can be of any quality. If you really do like it, you can request it be upgraded in my commission thread, but I'd like to go through a lot of freebies in my commission break.


AUCTIONS:
    This will be the only place I will take "special commissions" from now on. If you have any special requests, this is your chance. The auction format will be a semi-silent auction done via PMs. If you would like to bid on the auction spot, please PM me with an offer. I will update this thread daily to reflect the current offer. This is done so if you want to be anonymous, you can, and to not clutter this thread too much. The Auction will run until I'm done doing freebies. It should be a week or so, depending on personal whims. There will be no starting offers, and no buy outs. Feel fee to PM me with what you believe is a fair price.

Propane Nightmares- Pendulum (Celldweller remix is better)

A shot version of her bio is that she's inspired by the bride from kill bill kinda. Her fiance was Am Fah and she was a part of the Canthan traders fleet, and at the ceremony the Am Fah sprung an attack on the traders so that they could take control of their ships. Now she's a cold hearted b!tch that will go after anyone who stands in her way, especially Am Fah. She doesn't mind getting her dresses a bit dirty.

Feel free to bloody her up a bit =P

Woah. LOTS of things to chose from. I think the first one I'm gonna do is Kerwyn Nasilan's war, mostly because I've been drawing too many girls lately. Gotta draw a fatty MANLY war to compensate :P

I don't think I can start today because I'm going on a plein air painting trip with my friends a bit later, but expect something this weekend. Probably.

I'll probably do 2-3 more depending on how fast I go through them

Oh disclaimer: unless your character is awesome-r than a panda on crack, try to refrain from using chaos gloves. While I may decide to have a change of heart, I absolutely despise the chaos glove look. So chances are, I'm not going to go for them D:

Well uh, I didn't quite get to do what I wanted this weekend. Nevertheless, I did come up with something... sorta... while drawing kerwyn's war. I used widowmaker's female necro as a model, but it wasn't exactly character art .

Just thought this would be a cool skill
Augment Flesh:
25e/2c/15r
Elite Form Spell
Must exploit a fresh corpse. For 15...45...60 seconds, you do 50% more damage in melee and have +15...40 armor. You are now melee, and take 100% more damage from holy damage. This skill is disabled for 60 seconds.
I'd like to say death magic, but that would be too exploitable by melees, so I'll say linked to Soul Reaping. :P

Oh and @ Nian,
they look great, but I'm quite terrible at drawing anything cute...
Last time I tried drawing something cute, I gave her a chain saw as well because I felt it was missing something

Blue, No worries! It was just there if you happened to feel inspired. Cute is not what they are meant to be but now that I look at them... those designs were done in 2004 I think when I still mostly drew anime. Maybe it's time for a re-design.

Oh and nice whammo painting!

The Ice Wastes in the Underworld.

The Renegades Of Ascalon

Brief Lore
by the Teller of Tales
Mouvelian calender - 876 AE - 1076 AE

Year by year, Daniel succumbs more and more to the winter form curse, slowly turning into a facet of ice, such is the legacy of the Lady Drakkar and King Jack Lanthorn. It is rumoured he found solace in the lair of the snowmen, where he resigned himself to his icy fate and prayed to the Gods one last time. In the faded Dwarven runes from the journal of King Hundar, it speaks that Grenth first visited this barely human man, and bid him welcome into the icy depths of the Underworld, where the Ice King awaited him. Clasping his arms (therefore solidifying them to ice) he began to draw his essence into the Underworld. If not for the timely arrival of a well placed snowball, Daniel would be no more. Overcome with sheer dumbfounded amazement, he witnessed a certain feminine elf casually saying to the Lord of Death and Ice, "Why your Godship, it seems you have a snowball on your head!"

Grenth cursed him for his fathers crimes and for resisting death, thus making him an Envoy. It would seem that Frozenwind did not fully come under Grenth's power, due to the intervention of the mysterious elf. It is known that every Envoy bears the mark of that which killed them, the ice had put Daniel at the brink, but had not killed him. It was then that Dwayna blessed him, and he became a Snowman.

Envoys are shepherds of the souls of the dead, but unlike them, Envoy Frozenwind is a shepherd of the holiday spirit. As an Envoy will appear to a newly departed soul, Envoy Frozenwind appears when festivities are on the air. His tasks on Wintersday are numerous, but the main ones are to summon the Wintersday creatures Elf and Grench alike to Tyria, remind people of what makes Wintersday and try to sway the balance in favour of Dwayna.

Frozenwind has taken up this mantle at Wintersday since before the war between Kryta and Ascalon, there are records of his original name in an ancient Ascalon census dating back to the time of the founding of Nolani, suggesting that he was once a Flaming Scepter Mage. The last known residence of this oddity of Ascalonain origin was in a tower in an area known simply as "Wizards Folly".
