Need some art for a custom card you've just created? Want some alternate art for your favourite card? Whatever your Magic art needs.. its entirely plausible that you might be able to get what you need in this first-of-its kind shop.
Rules
1. Make sure you specify who you would like to attempt your piece of art. We all have totally different styles.
2. Be patient. Making art takes time.
3. When requesting an art, feel free to offer as many guidelines as you want, although keep in mind what our respective personal styles are like. If you have a very good idea of what you want your picture to look like, be very specific with the description. Otherwise, it'll be interpreted as the artist sees fit.
4. El Garbo is restricting his queue to only five arts at a time. Quiet Artist has restricted his queue to three arts. Bad Luck hasn't restricted it... yet.
5. Any of us totally reserve the right to flat out refuse to do a piece. We might be kind enough to pass it on to another member of the Shop, though.
6. Finally, patience is key. Oh and while I'm here, my own Art Contest stuff takes precedence as well. So don't get shirty if I put your request aside while I draw out a shiny new Moss Monster or something.
Cool idea! I'll make the first request to the shop.
I need a picture of a male elf. Green-aligned, but no green skin. He should look like a human, except a little taller and thinnder, and with pointed ears. (No giant ears that go above his head, just normal ears that are pointed on top instead of round.) Light clothing, no heavy armor. He should be holding a light curved sword, like Haldir's from LOTR, if that means anything to you. In fact, he's pretty much a LOTR movie king of elf. Shoulder length black hair. And he should be killing orcs. If you want, you can also have him using magic to kill some. If so, his eyes should be glowing red and he should be using fire magic.
Sorry for the overly long description, but I have a picture in my mind of it so there are a lot of details.
Eledin and Xander - I'll probably launch into both of your requests at the same time, but since Xander's is far less complicated, it'll no doubt be finished sooner. I can't really guess when they'll be finished, but I have some spare time up my sleeve, so hopefully soon!
Ooooo....I like art! I'm gonna request a wierd one: Kirby. Y'know, the pink puffball? You can do this however you want but the art should probably fit with a pink tinted artifact frame and fit the title Kirby, Dreamland Knight. BTW, I really like your Stasis spoof.
How about this:
The album cover of Dark Side of the Moon (that wierd prism thing with the rainbow), but its in 3-D and is in a 3-D angle and stuff. If you guys could do this it would be beyond godly.
well I know I'm new here, but I have an intresting request. From all 3 of you actually. I collect the card Sleight of Mind. At current count I have some 400 or so of them. My goal has shifted to collecting one of every version rather than getting everyone printed. Since then I have asked people who traded with me to sign and/or modify one as they see fit. I have recieved some 10+ altered ones so far and have 1 or 2 on the way. So as a Brain storm sort of idea, maybe you 3 could make original artwork for the card. The original is always nice and the Ice Age is neat as well, but after recieving some altered ones I can see the artwork being so much more.
And heres another weird request. Seeing how these would be fr a colection I would plan on printing these out so card art deminsions would be nice. After I do that I would like to send you all the fianl version to get them signed and added to my collection. It's justy another way to add to it and another way to add to your portfolio.
If any of you decide to do it, after the piece is done and I make the transition from art to card I can email you about the sending for signing. Of course since this is a personal request I wll cover everything cost wise.
appriciate it,
alan

As for the 3-D Prism, I think I'll pass, in my hallucinogic haze, I'd probably have to slip in the King of all Cosmos or something.. but it sounds like something that Mondu would be good at..

That's sweet QA. I like the one on the right better actually, though if it were me I'd color the background something besides yellow so it would match the blue card frame better.
I've finished my sketch, I just have to find the time to upload it and color it in.

Everyone - sorry about this, but I've hit a rediculous patch ofersonal turmoil, leading into a holiday which I've had planned for some time. Unfortunately, I won't be able to do any requests until I get home, in four weeks time.
If anyone else wants to knock off the things on my queue, feel free.
BTW, tugbucket, I'll make sure I have a crack at your request, although like I said, it won't be available for a little while.
Good idea there with the token, I'll alter it to your suggestion!
I thought Xander was going to render it though....
This weekend I was going to do finish up those pieces and paint some miniatures, but Saturday I spent the day recovering from a horrible hangover, and Sunday I had to catch up on all the work I missed from the day before (mostly house chores)
What a slacker artist I am!

I'd love to see some art for a sand token based off the critters in the Nephlim creature that makes them.
I'm learning to make alters.

bristol - feel free to join up, although at the moment there seems to be more people willing to make art than those requesting it.
