[Painted Unicorns] A Few Traditionals

Silvanon


Hi all!  I'm in the mood to hand-draw some Painted Unicorns, which mood has not struck me for a very long time.  I've got some premades I'm working on, and I'm thinking of offering a few custom slots.

Now, I used to have fancy paper and fancy Prisma Colored Pencils, and together they created a very nice look that I loved to use for traditional Paints.  Those supplies have become Lost In Move(s) so I don't have them to use now.  Instead I have regular paper, crayola colored pencils, and Photoshop for touch-ups.  This creates a different look.  So, when imagining what you might get with a custom, please look at the premades below and this gal to see the new look:  http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=564440

I'm going to run this very similar to Quinsta bribes.

Here is the form to fill out to submit a bribe: http://www.silvanon.com/Quin/bribeformpaint.php

Here is the list of bribe offers received: http://www.silvanon.com/Quin/paintoffers12-13.txt


As always, USD trumps anything else, and is most likely to be accepted, but I will also consider other types of bribes. 

Keep in mind that traditional Paints are individually drawn and thus take significantly longer than Quinsta, and thus will be much more limited.  Also we have less time than a usual Quinsta bribe round, since I need this all wrapped up by the time I need to start color Quinsta foals.

Alright, the rest of the info is up, as are three premades! :)

CrystalAngelNeko

Painted Unicorn Custom Form
Owner: CrystalAngelNeko
Paint Name: Diriel
Body type: Yeva
Wing type: Ni
Further Mutations: None
Pose Description:  What about a discription of his personality? He's a strong stalion, but very quiet and secritive. He carries a wait of gult on his shoulders that he cant seem to shake off... no mater how many times he might save some poor soul, he still feels every bit the monster.
Color Description: Grullo with a tint of purple. His mane and tail are black that fade to red, and his eyes are like rubies surounded by dark pools. He has large leather wings that are the shade of dried blood and his horn(s) happen to be dark ebony.

I know ram horns aren't a PU thing... but maybe he can be one of the new dragon PU or a zebra corn to at least have his wings?

Silvanon

With the ram's horns added, that'd make him a Special rather than a Zebracorn or Paint.  Totally do-able, just a different species.

Oh, and, make sure to fill out the bribe form with what you're offering for the custom.  Thanks! :)

*seriously pondering this even though she really, really shouldn't*

What would the Draquine option be considered?

(And I hear you about things getting Lost In Move(s).  I'm sure there are things in our basement that haven't been unpacked since my parents' last move 20 years ago.  The peregrinations of an academic with a family, looking for a tenure track position...)


Silvanon

If you want a Draquine that's do-able too.  I think I'd have to make a new category for Traditional Draquine, since I've never done one before.

Bunraku

Silv, for some reason I cant sumbit my bribe on the form x.x; I dont know why, but it didn't seem to go through at all each time I try

Silvanon

Huh, not sure what was up, but I do see the following bribe from you:

Bunraku   Full Custom   Hand Drawn Full Custom Siren (I use colored pencil and inks, sadly no examples at the moment but will still be anime-style like the adoptable)   

Bunraku

Ah okay good! It went through then, perhaps its just my browser being a pain.

Silvanon

So I've discovered that my phone's camera actually does a better job picking up color than my family's scanner (how pathetic of a scanner is that?  :/ )   In consequence, the premades have new pictures that show the actual coloring I did somewhat better than before.

skysnolimit

Silv, would it be possible to do a side-by-side comparison of the old and new images?  I have a sneaky feeling that I like the old ones better, which might influence my willingness to bid or not.  Albeit, I only viewed them on my phone before, but I felt somehow that they were clearer.  I'm specifically referring to Traditional #2; the others seem great, actually.

Silvanon

#15
Here's the old and new:










Anyone who does end up taking home one of these is welcome to choose which version they want up (and hey, there's always the description to put the other one too, if you want.)  I'm also happy to give the same choice to anyone who takes home a custom.

skysnolimit

Just submitted some bribes and PM'd you the custom form.  The "3x" offer is either-or with the single offers; I only thought up three customs ^^;

I do like the scanned PU's, by the way, so thanks for keeping the option open!

Ryuukokoro

I think I'd love to see Ebil as a PU, so maybe I can think of something to bribe with. ^_^


Painted Unicorn Custom Form
Owner: Ryuukokoro
Paint Name: Ebil
Body type: Yeva!
Wing type:  None
Further Mutations: None
Pose Description:  standing level, one heavy front hoof raised, arched neck with ears pinned back
Color Description: He's a blue corn roan with very heavy corning (in fact the spots look more like all-over appaloosa spots!). His eyes, hooves, and horn are a dull reddish brown.

Huh, I could swear I've done a coloring of Ebil before, but I guess it wasn't as a Paint.  XD


Edit....  going to accept the following bribes for Round 1:

Sent, Silv! :)

Edit: Could I please use Traditional 2's scanned picture (not the phone one)?  Thank you!

Ryuukokoro

If you do ever find an Ebil colored by you, please let me know! I don't have any Ebils from you saved and now I fear I have misplaced one.  :-X

Winged

Painted Unicorn Custom Form
Owner: Winged
Paint Name: Kelpie
Body type: Yeva
Wing type: None
Further Mutations: None
Pose Description: Rearing slightly, wild and dangerous looking. Mane and/or tail moving slightly as if in a wind.
Something similar to this- http://s1099.photobucket.com/user/Winged0/media/Characters/Kelpie_FinalMisplaced.png.html#/user/Winged0/media/Characters/Kelpie_FinalMisplaced.png.html?&_suid=13872761312530049902554236497365
Color Description: Dark grey-blue, dappled. The shade should be slightly like water while still being natural. Silvery green mane and tail, dripping with water/water-like. Some white flecks on his nose and a small, thin white star.
Eyes: Grey-blue with specks of green
Reference: http://www.secundi.net/forum.php?topic=3781.msg114104#msg114104
Basicly something eerie, beautiful that represents the feel of a scottish loch (if that helps?). I'm not the best at descriptions, so any questions please ask!

Yeva is a draft type body.

Winged

Any update one these, are you planning on accepting any more?
Owner of Gliders!

Silvanon

Ah, sorry for the wait!  I've got a templating commission I've been working on that I want to get finished before I accept any more Paints.  I'm getting close to done with it, but we're going to be out of town for a few days and I probably won't get time to do more before Quin foal colorings hit.  I could accept another round after foals are done.  What do you guys think, do you want a round after Quin foals?

Winged

I'd love another round! Was my offer good enough do you think? I wasn't sure what was fair to offer.

sera

Agreed as well.  ^^  And it'd be nice to sort of know where we stand bribe0wise.  hehe  ^^

Silvanon

Going to bump this up so I can find it again as needed.  I edited the bribe offer list with the offers still under consideration, put in order of likelihood of accepting.  I will likely have time to accept an offer or two in 3-4 days.

Winged

I'm afraid I'll have to change my offer to remove the option of an okibi custom, I can no longer offer that. The glider custom is still available is that still a tempting offer?
Owner of Gliders!

Silvanon

Yup, I like gliders. :)  Thanks for letting me know!

Round 2

Winged -   Full Custom - $8 + Glider custom
sera - Song Custom -  Song Custom with like number of designations + a non-lion Pre-made.



(Bun, I'll totally accept your offer once our current Quinsta trade is completed, but I don't want to add more deals on until then.)

Winged

Thank you! Money has been sent, just pm me with the form for the Glider custom :)
