Nice I dream to eventually be working in the gaming industry. I don’t have any technical or artist ability, but I am sure good at working with people! I am glad to see a good artist living the life.

This is literally the first time I’ve ever clicked on this forum and when I saw this thread I was blown away. This is exactly the type of art/portrait I’ve been thinking about since launch. As in “Wow, I wish I could draw an epic picture of my character like some of this fan art Anet posts on social media.” Well now I found you, so it’s okay I have trouble drawing stick figures! Seriously, amazing work.

I know you’ve stopped the queue, but I can wait however long with no problem and I’ve already bookmarked the thread so I can check back when you’re accepting for more again. Just wanted to pay compliments and say that you’ll have more ‘business’ from me for at least one of mine and my husband’s characters when you start it up again. Super impressed!

Hey guys, thank you so much for your kind words! I’ve got an overload of RL work so it’s been quite slow making the portraits, so once again thank you everybody for your patience.

Cloudfire, I would love to in the future! And if I did’t have RL work to do, I’d keep accepting commissions really :x

Raghnu, I do! But my signature is tiny)

Cowrex, thank you very much!

No worries, please take your time. I’d rather wait an extra week than have a rushed portrait that’s not as detailed as it could have been in order to make deadlines. Quality over quantity. I am sure most feel the same. Real life comes first and foremost.

Doesn’t make me any less excited, however. The anticipation is a slow death most honorable. Geeeeeeeeee.

Hello all,

I must once again apologize for the delay for those who have been waiting in queue for so long. I am caught at a bad time at my job – game development is known for weeks and weeks of crunching to meet deadlines, and that’s where I am now. I don’t want to produce poor quality work and disappoint all of you after you’ve waited so long, so please allow me to sort out my real life work for a week or two before I go back to making artworks for you. Again, my sincere apologies and hope you can wait just a little bit longer! ;(

No worries, completely understandable. I am familiar with the fury of deadlines, and I know the game industry can be even more heavy handed when it comes to such. The good news is there is no deadline here. Your prices are beyond fair, your work has an outstanding track record. No one (I would imagine) would dare complain to wait as long as it takes to get premium work. After all, the alternative is less than your best or no one gets anything as your career is first and foremost. These people seem very understand, and I moreso. Take all the time you need, I’m not going anywhere. You have been wonderful throughout, a real community heart. I am sure the rest would agree. Thank you.

I’m speechless (if you can believe it…) This is an amazing piece of work. It captures my character’s elementalist dual personalities of Fire and Frost so well. The masks are so detailed, and the eyes are haunting. I love the backdrop colors and the way the flame orbs light each side of the face. Worth EVERY GOLD PIECE. I can’t wait to keep watching this thread and seeing all the new pieces. I’m going to get this printed to a canvas, framed and hung in my study. Keep them coming. Anet needs to recognize this work.

First of all I would like to say that your art is unbelievable! I know that the look I want for my warrior’s portrait can only be captured by you!!! Every portrait you post proves it. I am willing to wait however long but I will go ahead and post the information and will let you know ingame I have posted on here. The first picture is the kind of pose I would like my warrior to be in and I know you do a lot above waist only so it works out because i would love for his face and his sword to be the main focus. I’d just like the appearance that he is in a seated position and leaning on the handle of the sword, but just showing his face/sword/chest/arms that are holding the sword. I may be making this sound confusing, if so i’m really sorry xD I love the way you use the black background so I was hoping you could use the sword, Cobalt, that I have pictured to light it up a bit with the blue flames. If you can’t add the blue flame that’s fine. I trust whatever you can whip up.

Hi Rapid!

Thank you! Right now I’m clearing the queue of ~25 characters that I still have, which means commissions won’t reopen in a couple of months, but do keep checking back as I’ll update this thread when it does

Thanks to you and everyone for the patience!

I love your artwork! I sent you a PM a moment ago asking about a commission request. Do you have a page on Deviantart as well?

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share my portrait painting of my guardian, Jillia Darkwrath

Also, I was wondering, does anyone know if it’s okay to open for art commissions for in-game gold? I’m a digital illustrator by profession, and I would love to be able to make a whole collection of portraits of the beautiful characters of the awesome players of Guild Wars 2.

Asuras don’t even have to be upper body portraits only, since they’re small

Ill pay you well i dont want to say 10g, bc you might take that as cheap? let me know what would be reasonable.— nothing over 100g tho! lol im helping a friend with his legendary so i need to spare some! if youre interested ill post the character and what not just quote me or send a message whatever you want! <3 i just need to get some screens- thats why i havent posted them.
As an artist myself I know how backed up and busy you can get, so take your time no rush and RL always comes first!
