Welcome to Art Attack!
I've been looking for art here on Mene for quite some time now. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding anyone who follows through on their art, or who isn't full. So, what exactly is my purpose here you might ask? Well, this is my last desperate attempt at getting some art, so I'm here for some particular arts, and you're here to do them for me! :D

*Please note, that if you have legit art, and need time and require a substantial amount of gold for that hard work, you should PM me privately. Send me an example of your art, let me know which of my photos you'd like to do, how much time you need and what you charge for you art, and we'll strike a deal! I will pay up to 30k for real art of my real photos.

Also, I'll list the prizes below. Everyone wins something! But if you continue on to the spoiler of art I like, I'll list under those photos how much I'm willing to give for art like that. Again, up to 30k or more, or rare items like OMG! Head, How Now, etc...

Prizes
for entering Poppet's art contest - 100

First, second and third place prizes will start with gold according to these categories (along with
the 100 for entering) and also win an EI or CI:
for something with color (more than two colors) - 250
for full body art (head to toe) - 300
for art that has shading (anything 2D or better) - 350
for art that has a background - 400
for being big enough that I can print it and put it in my photo album at home - 600

For winning first place - 5,000 on top of the other gold and EI or CI
Yes, if you do all of these things, and make our first, second or third place winning spots, you will get the sum of all of those goldies, plus a CI/EI. And if your art is just amazing, and I don't feel like you got what you deserved for the art, I'll definitely ADD GOLD to that sum, up to 5,000 (like our first place winner will receive - at least). I am very fair, and do not want to undersell anyone. Everyone wins something! (As long as the rules have been followed, and you don't try to give me any art listed in the spoiler section of "Things I don't really like much.") Savvy?

Poppets Rules for Art Attack Victims
1. Oh you know, be nice, and stuff! :D
2. Follow Mene's rules and TOS first and foremost.
3. No trolling, spamming, begging or harassing.
4. No amateur work. (Please don't take offense! I'm just offering a lot of gold for art that I can have around for many years. I want to be paying for something I truly adore. While I applaud those of your starting out and trying to get your feel for art, I will not offer much, if anything at all, for scanned pencil sketches on notebook paper, or disproportionate features, etc.)
5. No pixel dolls!
6. If you just want to do art for me, great! But if you want to enter the contest, reply to this thread by copying and pasting this box into your reply:

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What do you want the girl in your art to look like?
A: Myself! Unless otherwise stated. I currently have almost waist length dark dark brown hair. My eyes are blue. I'm super skinny, though curvy. My skin isn't too pale, but I rarely have a good tan. I also have freckles on my cheeks, but I hate them most of the time and cover them with makeup. If the art would look better with them, fine, if not it won't hurt my feelings if you leave them out!

Q: When does the contest end?
A: Since I've been MIA for a few weeks at a time off and on lately, and there are a lot of people who want to enter but haven't yet, annndd since I'm still looking for a lot of different stuff, I'm going to extend the cut off date. I'm not sure yet when that will be, but it won't be too terribly long.



I'm looking for art of these particular things (in no particular order):

SPOILERX

1. One of my favorite avatars. She can have her eyes closed and laughing, or open and red to match the rest of the red. Whatever you think would look best. I want the photo to be cute!


2. Another of my most favorite avatars ever! I love love love this one! Eyes open and pink to match the outfit, or closed and laughing, either way!


3.

I would also love:

SPOILERX

1. Anything with a happy family of three! We all have brown hair. My husband is a head and a half taller than me, with brown eyes. I have blue eyes with almost shoulder length hair. Our daughter is three, small, with hazel brown eyes and long hair. We are all light skinned. We are all crazy silly and happy together!

2. Anything cute OR sexy, of a female with long brown curly, wavy or straight hair and blue eyes.

3. Anything cute OR sexy with that same female and a romantic partner, who is a vampire.

4. Anything with a mom and daughter. My daughter is three, so she's a toddler; small. Long brown hair, hazel eyes. My hair is also long and brown and I have blue eyes!

Types of art I love and will accept:
If you're unsure if I'd like your kind of art, feel free to send me an example of it! I like other arts, too, I just haven't had the time to add ALL of the things I like!

SPOILERX

Please keep in mind, that I've never actually purchased art. So if my prices are way off, forgive me! I'll pay just about anything for good art that really gets me and what I love! Gold is NOT an issue. If you're interested in doing any of my things in any art like the arts listed below, let me know your price!



^I would give around 800 for art like this.


^I would give around 1,000 for simple art, in color, like this.


^ I would give around 1,000 for a black and white sketch like this.


^I would give around 1,500 for a single character, full body, in this kind of art.


^I would give around 1,500 for a colored art photo like this, more for full body.



^I would give around 3,000 for art like this, in color.



^I would give around 3,000 for art like this.



^I would give around 10,000 for a bust of myself like this.



^I would give 30,000 or more (whatever is reasonable - I don't know how much work something like this would be - but gold isn't an issue) for beautiful art like this.

Types of art I am not looking for:

SPOILERX

Thanks y'all! I've been looking for art for almost a YEAR and have found NO TAKERS. Every time I message someone they say the same things you guys are saying, everyone is busy and full.

Lol no worries though. I'll just keep my fingers crossed that someone out there is bored enough to do some art for me! Now that you mention the Holidays, I'd love some Holiday art, too! D: Lol I'm never going to find art am I? *laughs to keep from crying*

You're beautiful, and I'd love to do you in charcoal ;) (sounds kinda creepy!)
Are you interested in colored, digital works only?

that's because you were only looking through art requests? Definitely won't get anything that way. But really?...my shop has never been full....There are artists here who are accepting orders, though the last few months, not so much.

I believe it's time to show you some examples however I do know my art is not the best unless I get that random urge to make it better

So let's begin, my latest artwork (originally didn't have to be in color, was just going to be a sketch, and needed any effort or background) was for --- someone I can't remember their name

Newest

This is my older art that I don't bother looking back on.

Other recent artwork
1
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

Older artwork in the past year or so...
10
11
12
13
14

I have a cellphone which is an android, takes good pics, AND I do have a scanner I can use after getting at least a minimum of five drawings.

My style changes, my time to do artwork along with my mood changes, and I have been sick lately, but, right now I have the urge to draw tonight. So if you want me to do some art for you, just ask, if not I'll cheer from the sidelines and be your butler here (or do art and be your butler)

Also I have one more that I ran into a few days ago in the Pricing Assistance.

Murasaki Fujiwara: Hey =) I remember you wanted to get into the Art Shop business and what not. Love your art and I'm sure P o p p e t ♥ will too. ^ u^ You can earn quite a bit of gold here. So check it out and see if you're interested.

I wish I could do realism. That one realism bust you have as an example is amazing!

I might find time to do something for this. Are you okay with chibis?

Dang, I love doing portraits of people in graphite too (soft spot for graphite and white chinagraph on grey canson paper) I did a few for Melody Xyelle. But because there didn't seem to be a market for it, I stopped offering them.

Graphite Works

I haven't done any forever @o@

Holiday art is a great idea ^^!

Yes thank you so much Kas! I love you!

Rainbows: I have nooo idea what art really goes for. I haven't had any made for me yet. And thank you for the sweet compliment! I'm interested in almost any kind of art, as long as it's not super amatuer, sketched on notebook paper, uploaded by camera phone kind of stuff. I'm looking for art that people are generally asking a lot for. I definitely don't want to hurt anyone's feelings at all, but I don't want to spend away my goldies on stuff that I could do myself, you know?

I can do pencil sketches easily myself, I actually love drawing. It's the digital, watercolor, pastel, charcoal, etc. stuff that I couldn't do even if someone tried to pay me. So I'd love to see what you can do with charcoal!

@Kat - I don't know! I thought I searched through everything! But honestly, the whole art forum is just confusing to me.

@Raine - Your art is great! I adored your pen art. If you want to enter the contest, I'd accept your art, totally! Though, I won't accept anything uploaded by phone or camera. I don't like the image quality or lighting it gives to photos.

---------- Post added 11-18-2013 at 10:40 PM ----------

Kent: I do like chibis!

Nivvy: QUIT teasing me!

Also, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ping you on that one. I recall you saying you subscribed!

the art forum is confusing? It's only confusing when people don't know how to set up a shop. The prefixes are so great and I love them to death. Very easy to find an open shop.

okay! I don't have a scanner, so if I DO complete this artwork for you, would you be comfortable with me mailing it? since I wouldn't be able to give you a good photo

this is my best example, and the only thing I have to take pictures is my cell phone.

SPOILERX


^ charcoal


^ graphite

It's okay ^^ I don't mind pings at all <3
They're probably better than anything else, coz I always respond to them
I've got the memory of a goldfish at the moment, so I usually forget to respond to non-pings lol

Aww, I'm keen to enter this - My husband reckons he felt sorry for me drawing everything with the mouse recently (I think he's just sick of me burning out all the batteries xD) So he purchased me a little Intuos to replace my ancient dinosaur tablet. I should be able to submit to this competition in the future <3 Looking forward to flexing my wannabe digital artist muscles, on a tablet that actually has pressure sensitivity xD!!

Rainbows:
I loooove the image you just posted! Beautiful technique :D
What media did you use to produce that image?

thank you so much! I'm trying to get into traditional medias again and I need that encouragement, haha.
Everything but the background was charcoal (black and white), the background was a range of chalks (I think? At that point I was just using whatever my art teacher set in front of me)
the paper lent a great deal to the piece - one of those post-consumer paper kind of deals x)
