Arkillian-  If you don't mind, I would like a simple, though artsy ;), writing of "DawsonJ". (I realize it's simplistic, but my creativity leaves me for months at a time. :P)

Don't worry, I don't mean anything large - just a simple b&w image about the size of 2 photos side by side.

What would be the appropriate charge? (In U.S. quid)

Since I just saw Arkillian is online right now--we demand more gorgeous art!  ;D

Sorry! I've been very busy lately XD I Just got into My Little Pony fever and I'm customising Ponies XD That, and I'm organising a fan comic, running a role play, and just become a moderator for Drawfest Auckland. XD I was skimming over the express creativity forum incase anything was posted here, but I haven't had time for casual chat :( I'm still here though!

Um... art. Well, I'll drip feed it so people aren't over blown by art.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Tiger and Bunny fanart. It's based off an official piece of art cause my first fanart of a fandom always is, but I did it in my own style of art.  This one is done in copics :) http://thisissternbild.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/1315306352137.jpg <- referance

I don't know who they are, but it looks awesome! Nice work. :)

What's your RPG about? What system? Etc:)

What's your RPG about? What system? Etc:)

Tiger and Bunny hasn't been released in english yet so I'm not surprised. It's an anime about superheroes with sponsorship! They go around saving the city and have life dramas. The story revolves around Kotetsu, the guy on the right. His code name is Wild Tiger. He has the ability to be super strong / fast for a period of time, but he's a veteran hero and has a daughter that he has to neglect to save the city :( Tiger is forced to team up with Barnaby, on the left cause they have the same power and Barnaby has better ratings. This show is SO awesome though. TuT

The RP is systemless, via forums. It's a game of 'Spin the bottle'. Been playing it for a few years now. IT's my second time GMing this. I... think I wrote the rules to how to play the game actually XD I have to make sure that the game is fun for everyone and they actually play :) This is the thread if you're curious. IT can be pretty silly sometimes, and also serious. The adults are all playing truth or dare and there's ALOT of drama spewing out of that. My characters all are drama based though so it's no surprise. I've RPed with a few of the people there for a long while now too so we have alot of continued relationships all over the place which are great back story :) I love it ^^

What's this for?

Sorry, the site just told me about new comments; I didn't know you replied back then.

Basically, I want a nice label that I can frame. I don't have any written forms of DawsonJ, except online. It would be nice to have a label of my own here at the house. (In case you're confused, DawsonJ is my own creation, not my given name.)

Cute tattoo! :3

She's still work in progress, I'm doing her mane the SLOW WAY (Oh man it's slow- I'm doing the tooth floss method where I thread tooth floss through the hole and pull the pony hair through. Stabbed myself countless number of times and broke 2 needles. Good news is that I'm getting a rehairing tool from America which I can cut HEAPS of time with, save my hands, and hopefully some needles :) It'll take a week or so to get here though. I'll likely finish Sarah (my pony)'s hair by then.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Sarah, the girl in the wedding dress is the referance for the pony I'm making. She's based off the current run of ponies (Generation 4) Pinkie Pie. Mostly cause I had nothing to work with at the time. I'm slowly aquiring older ponies to mod.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Pinkie Pie sans hair

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Sarah with her base coat done and her mane draped over her head for colour reference purposes

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Sarah with her eyes painted- her mane still not attached

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

A mock up of her wedding dress. It's currently still not sewn together, but it is cut and able to be pinned together.  Decorations are to be put on the dress, and will be fully removable if I want to display her with her cutie mark in full view :)

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

My ball jointed doll, Ophelia displaying the work in progress of the rehairing of Sarah. I've progressed a bit from here, but an hour of rehairing is gruelling and doesn't provide much visual change. The hair looks SO gorgeous though. IT's a super shinny white colour- like glittering snow ^^ It's perfect.

That's all I have at the moment :)

Wow, Arkillian! You are an artist in every sense of the word. When I've seen those MLP recreations floating around on the Internet, it has always amazed me. That's spectacular! Amazing work!

Cheers :) I'm getting alot of great advice from the forums :) It's helped alot with the mod process. Alto of the customs I've seen on the internet have inspired me. I'd like to do something awesome with this :) when I have my rethreader and air brush, hopefully it'll become an easier job too :nod:

That's a lousy request of your talents. Sorry. I want to be supportive, but I'm drawing blanks. I'll see if I can come up with something better later.

Sorry, I'm just confused what you're asking of me ^^; I don't know what you're wanting.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

A picture I drew as a tutorial for another artist. I think I learnt more with this picture than the person I drew it for did XD David Tennant as the 10th Doctor.

Good gosh Susie you are so talented. I can't get over how much that resembles David. (And this is coming from a non Doctor Who fan)

Heh- it's easier to go off a photo than from purely the mind. He took twice as long to get a resemblance with though ^^; My first few tries were alot less accurate, I assure you XD





Normally by WIP2 they're 90% there. There was NOTHING Tennant looking in this one XD He's on this angle where his characteristic gaunt look is just starting to round off, but not enough to be front on >.< IT was difficult.



Here's a picture I originally drew about 10 years ago revamped.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Don't know if it's relevant to interests but... :) They're some OCs from a story of mine, Dragon Twins. It's... a little hard to explain, but the guy with the crown was born in to a warrior family, and he goes back in time to correct his past where evil took over the world. This picture is meant to illustrate the different levels of time. The old future, the present, and the new future.

Sorry I'm quiet ^^; I'm working on a comic right now XD

I know I'm about 16 pages late to the party, but I happened across some of your stuff on DA (since I'm watching King's Quest Fanclub) and holy crap your stuff is fantastic. I've been leafing through your account and it's all fantastic. Glad to have you on my watch list (in a non-creepy way). :D
