Thanks,

Mike,

Good Day, forum-goers of Lord of the Craft! I present to you an idea that hatched from the ever-whatever mind of mine that I like to call Lord of the Cards! You may be thinking, "What even is that supposed to be? Is he making a card game?" 
The answer is: close! What I am doing with this post is taking requests to make deep breath Yugioh cards! Yes, that's right! Have you ever wanted to see you or your character as a Yugioh card? Well now you can! For the low price of $0 and 0 minas, you can request a custom-made Yugioh card of either you or a persona of yours! 
Here's what you have to do! Just post a reply to this post with the format below!
1. Name of card:

2. A link to any art, or even a picture of the skin or something, that you would like for the picture on the card:

3. Any other particular requests about the card (Type, what kind of effects, etc.):

And you're done! I've already done cards for the Event Department of LotC! (Most don't have pictures because I couldn't go around and ask everyone for any specific art. Sorry if I missed you, or got something wrong, the ED is constantly changing!) 
 

A link to the album for the ED: http://imgur.com/a/jCbvS

not a meme i swear
Before you ask, yes, you can use them in signatures and all that!

Double Kruugalo Trouble

A public trouble in Felsen!

I'll pay from anywhere of 800 Minas to 1k! He's a Kha Pantera with one arm and has his own little bear cub (If you want to add that in)! PM me on the forum or IG at JungleSinOfSloth! The skin is down below if you need it!

I'm a fairly new Roleplayer in Lord of the Craft. I also Draw.

I dont really know if I should open a commission shop charging minas for art, thats why Im posting an example of it right here: http://imgur.com/EGjS3jy

I also do sketch type headshots like this: http://imgur.com/0sKaqnA I dont know if anyone would be interested in my art, so Im asking before hand; If i were

to make a shop, would anyone commission me (via minas)?

(Also would like to mention, I used this http://www.deviantart.com/art/Chibi-Tutorial-4-poses-368837140 as a light reference, but the art and concept is still mine ! <3)

so yes u can either do art trades w me or u know..... just check out my stuf! :)

(yes a lot of these r old and half of them r not even done)

I'll draw any race, any creature, etc! Right now, I offer two options:

• top row, shaded portrait - 1200 minas
• bottom row, flat colored portrait - 800 minas

(sometime in the future I might offer full blown scenes from your rps for real money :P)

here's a set of messy portraits I've done of my own oc's (and friends) just so you can get a good idea of my style:

I just have a few rules to keep things running smoothly!

• Payment is accepted only minas, and upfront before I work on the art! The price of your commission may differ from the base price because of design complexity. MC name: Creative_Potato
• Visual references are a necessity. If all you have is your MC skin, don't be afraid to break out an additional text description and/or turn to google images for lookalikes!! My goal as an artist is to capture your vision of the character, so I need your help to achieve that!
• I will not be making an excessive amount of edits on these. This is why you must be thorough with your descriptions/references, and any additions/discrepancies thereof. One draft will be sent for approval; after that, the only thing I will alter for free are the colors of the character and, if applicable, the lighting.
• Slots are first come, first serve. After I receive your references, etc, I'll give you a proper price quote, and start working after you send a screenshot confirmation of the minas sent!

I'll PM you after you make a claim and that's where we'll keep contact going throughout the process!

Slots:

• Malgonious [started]
• Space [reserved]
• onthetrail [reserved]
• Gucko [started]
• Proddy [reserved]
• Krav3n [started]

!! SLOTS ARE CLOSED !!

No longer accepting 'normal' requests, unless it is regarding updates or adjustments or of national importance.

Regarding outstanding payments, you know who you are.

People have been messaging me about making coat of arms as of late, I thought that I'd open it up for others that really need one.

Requests should provide as much detail as possible. I.e. Colours, symbols, and perhaps a mock up (even if it is done on paint). More elaborate coat of arms can require the family tree of the house, its notable figures and titles held, as well as connections through marriages.

Note: 

  All elements are hand drawn (i.e. mantling, crests/crowns), and entire pieces can take up to weeks to complete.

  In keeping with consistency throughout historical changes in lotc, I am willing to maintain/update coat of arms and release the psd documents if need be.

  A thorough blazon/description of the coat of arm may be provided on requests.

As of recently, in my spare time, I've been working on a small scenery/nature plot, of which I continue on with whenever I'm bored, or have a surge of motivation. I'll post screenshots of it here, and update the thread as the build progresses. I've no idea how many hours I've put into it - but it's taken me a while to finish even a quarter of it.

Also, I'm using shaders because it makes me look 99x more professional, as well as this fancy font.

[Update 1]

I started with a flat plot of land, and simply started using World Edit to texture the terrain, and simply give me something to build upon. This is what I started with.

Honestly, I'm not even sure how I had the motivation to turn this ^, into something better. I started off by using WE brushes to texture the terrain, adding in a large river; of where the build started, and developed around. Anyways; this is what I have now.

As you can probably see, it's nowhere near finished. I still have about 3/4 of the plot of land to do, I'll give some close-up pictures of what I have currently;

They've been kindly put into a spoiler so that you won't be scrolling for centuries. Anyways! This is all I've done so far... and it's taken me a considerable amount of time, most likely due to the fact I may only work on it for a couple hours a week. If you have any suggestions as to any features you'd like to see in the map, leave a comment!

[Update 2]

So, I've started transitioning the area into a forest, and so-far I've only done a very small amount of the forest. However, you can see how it's turning out already!

Thanks for @Harrison for letting me draw his dragon and to @HurferDurfer1 For Commissioning me!

I am now offering my elite talents for hire. Here is an example of what you can expect in an original art piece I just made titled:

The Races of Lord of the Craft

EDIT: First things first, the shop is now closed. The artists here want to go in different creative directions and try something else.

EDIT 2: The artists have reconciled and decided that they'll use Paint on a Windows 10 to draw a rendition of the character the customer's stated Minecraft Username generates a skin for. This will be done for pay as we're spending our time doing this as procrastination from actual duties in work and school.

Payment Options include, but are not limited to:

1. 1,000 minas wired directly to the off-shore bank account of the leader of the Event Team so they can have an income of minas to hand out in jackpot awards to other Users. Or wire it to LatheBiosas so he can be #1 on /money top just to upset whoever is currently #1 because it's funny. The mentioned characters that each User you will wire the 1,000 minas to will assume good fortune rains upon them in role-play and wrongly consider their Luck to be a natural 7 when it's actually 1 +6 luck due to the Fraudster talent's luck modifier the User selected as a perk when starting LOTC and such characters thereafter.

2. Write an original roleplay/lore post in the correct section and publish it to the forums.

3. Get higher than 60% on your next assessment/assignment/exam/test if you're attending education. Or try and start a stash of cash that's funded by giving 15% of your monetary earnings as tribute to having future adventures or comfort. If you already save your money on the side instead of like buying a coffee everyday, good on you, the contract will be happily fulfilled.

For requests simply state:

*A Minecraft Username
*A description of your payment method

EDIT 3: The artist felt the love from our first fan and went extra.


EDIT 4: Our legal team has informed us that offering requests and then demanding payment might land us in court, so we'll now just hope for rep points as appreciation for the work. Like buskers in the street, we'll more likely than not draw a picture for you.
