Well, I have been waiting for the picture of Zan for a while now. However, I know Chain Lightning is a freelance artist doing actual paying work. So I can wait until he is finished.
Kinda wish someone would snag up Elroumar, though :P

If you "really, really" need this done then a FREE character portrait thread might not be the best place to hang out....
That is so true.
When I created the thread I never thought it would last this long. Of course, many of the past artists are now doing freelance work (i.e. Chain Lighning).
In reality, there isn't a guarantee that a character will get done. Case in point, Babette does characters that pulls her in. She needs to love the concept. Greatseamonster is a regular here as well and I like his work. Sometimes I wish Kip the bold had the time to continue doing free sketches (he was the one who started it all), but we all soon realized that Kip had to have a life too.
What this thread needs in an influx of new artistic talent. Newbies who want to get noticed. The thread is great for exposure, as word of mouth has helped a lot of EN World artists.
For those lookiong for art fix, take a look at the image below done for me by and EN World artist (I forgot the name) of a barbarian half-orc character of mine named Spears. (If the artist sees this, please post here too remind my failing memory.)
[edit]
I forgot to mention veinglory. His work has appeared on this thread as well. Good stuff.

Cheers!

Gotta say, I appreciate all of the pieces in this thread. It's nice to be able to pull a few extra pictures out to use with a game in one way or another. My most recent habit has been to crop the character's face into a 1.5 inch square to put on my initiative cards front side in the graphic slot, and print a (possibly cropped) shrunk version of the print out on the back. I do this on cardstock which I laminate, and let me say, it's made initiative cards way more exciting.

Reason: Edited for clarity.
I'm still hoping someone will want to do my new character Keleran! First character I've played in years.

Hawkins: A flagon with a dragon? Griselda: Right. Hawkins: But did you put the pellet with the poison in the vessel with the pestle? Griselda: No! The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon! The vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true!
I posted a short story called Horns of Honor a couple of threads back (now removed), but I think it fell under the radar with all the other great character sketch requests.
Thus, I have posted the short story in the Story Hour Forum. Hopefully, that familiar 'medium' will appeal more than downloading a Word Document file.
Any artist who reads it and is interested in doing a sketch based on the story or one of the main characters, let me know.
Cheers!

Here's the description of a major NPC in my game "Into the Icy Darkness." All the players have already drawn pictures of their characters, unfortunately their DM is not a very good artist. There's no rush on this, maybe someone will find his concept interesting and have some fun.
Lord Lucius Caladron Sor12/Ftr2, CG (headed towards CN)
Physical Description: Lucius is a 17 year old son of a powerful noble family. As such, he wears some magical platemail (heirloom) as well as an artifact bastard sword his party gave him, along with spell components int he like on a belt around his waist. He is about 6 feet tall, and while he is rather strong, he is not physically buff... the best way to describe him would be that he is slightly wiry. He as a narrow cut, handsome (for someone this young) face, and large green eyes. His red hair is medium length, short along the sides (neccessary for a disguise during one adventure, its basically stayed).
Other notes about the character: Lucius is a sorcerer by blood, as is most of his family. Unfortunately, the source of their magical influx happens to be a liason an ancestor had with a demon some centuries earlier. As such, their natural leaning in magic tends toward the darker arts.
Lucius is caught in the middle. He is currently with a good aligned party; indeed, he is in love with one of the good aligned fighters. But whenever his emotions run high, his dark magic comes forth... he's too inexperienced to control it properly. When this happens, his eyes tend to glow, his skn turns reddish, and many times his face contorts into shapes that are... unnerving. While he is gifted with magic, he also has a tendency to do what he understands more... charging into a fight with his sword upraised. Some of his confusion due to his ancestry and its magic effects on him might be things affecting his appearance as well.
I hope thats a description good enough for someone to use! Once again, thanks!

Hello there
Can anyone help out painting some holy symbols?
I have finished my "good" gods and I need some visuals.
The "evil" gods are an equal number.
Thanks in advance
1. A Darkwood staff with some tendril like vines wrapped around. Very organic and natural
2. a demonic fiendish Tarrasque face, maybe smeared with blood. A ravaging beast of pure destruction
3. a golden staff topped with a radiant sun disk
4. hammer and anvil maybe with some fiery elements , or something else with a artisan, smiths, arts & craft theme
5. silhouette of a nacked dancing lady, very sexy and tempting, or something else with a love/sex theme
6. a four stringed harp, or something else with a musical theme
7. a huntress with bow and arrow, or something else with a forest theme
8. a horn, or something else with a travel theme
9 a claymore sword held firm in two hands, or something else with a celtic warrior theme
10. a precious ruby, or something else with a trickster, rouge theme
11. Something with a knowledge theme
12 Something with a magic theme
I have about 10 evil gods. But at first the good ones please, thanks again
Well met
I'm doin a FR fanpage with a lot of information and hopefully a lot of free original stuff. So if you have anything to contribute to the site, I'd be happy, for I am really not good at painting.
Certainly you will be credited properly with as much information you like.
Though I need virtually anything in the future. I started the page with racial information on dwarves.
So if you have dwarves with a Realms Flavor just post 'em
I also need dwarven priests of certain deities, holy symbols (or items with such symbols), Maybe paintings of the deities themselves, battlerager, dwarven runes (remember that there is an official font), dwarven forges, well everything dwarven and Realms!!
As i said other Realms Art is very much appreciated as well.

I haven't been around for a while what with work, being evicted and other tribulations.
Was there anyone here I was part way through drawing before my life got thrown into random boxes and all messed up? I seem to recall an elf vampire with multi-coloured hair? Maybe you've given up on me by now!
I will have a browse through and see what is currently waiting to be done.
{Was there anyone here I was part way through drawing before my life got thrown into random boxes and all messed up? I seem to recall an elf vampire with multi-coloured hair? Maybe you've given up on me by now!}
But that was more a private thing for my long term character. She made a very beautiful painting.
Those two things I have posted now are something different however.
The holy symbols are for a german fansite of an original d20 campaign setting. Some artists from these boards have already contributed to the project.
It is a setting based on the ideas of many fantastic people from the d20 community. Originally it was called "Tales of a thousand tongues"
I am runnning the project.
Currently I am editing and translating the stuff (to german) to put it on a webpage. and in to accesoirs wich can be downloaded or ordered (for a small) fee.
I can't offer payment, but some webspace for our "featured artists", where the guys who contribute something are presented with full credits and means to be contacted. So it might work as a springboard.
about 200 visitors have frequented the old message boards.
The Forgotten Realms ist simply a project that is similiar to John Scott's FR index but with another approach. And I simply need some artwork for it. I am an information scientist and not a good painter.
No one needs to paint something for the page (certainly it would be cool), But I think many artist have already painted something with a FR flavor. Again full credit is assured, in a way I described above.
