Alright! Caught up! Decided what the heck and cranked out near a week's worth of an assignment: Famous Faeries
These are all interepretations of fey within my setting, High Fantasy.
Perhaps one of the greatest known fey in lore, the lady of Avalon herself, the Lady of the Lake. Since humans only see her arm, I decided to give all of you the rest of her.
The lord of one of the greatest fey courts, Lord Oberron of A Midsummer Night's Dream. I decided from my reading of the play that he's only a few steps of dark faerie away from eating human flesh, so I gave him some horns and some dark dripping off him. The armor is wooden.
Still as promiscuous as ever, the animal spirit Coyote as he looks in modern times.
And Oberron's most famous son, Robin Goodfellow, or simply Puck. About halfway through this drawing he suddenly took on the likeness of a lot of the characters my friend Elbonie would draw, so I decided to run with it.
A modern fey of my own creation: a Faceless Joe. They are nondescript in every fashion, and blend in to large crowds in cities. A Faceless Joe will feed off of the energy of hurrying people, often making them forget important things they had to do that day. This one has removed his mask only long enough to show us where he got his name.
Wellp, all caught up on this. Now to all the other stuff I have to do ...

Clueless
Webmonkey
Ok, *now* I have to beg - it's the fey theme, the fey made me do it...
Can I get one of Clueless, my half-fey blade singer? Blond, blue-green eyes, male, average height, very lithe build. For a real life model, look towards Heath Ledger. He has black dragonfly wings (refecting his unseelie bloodlines), with a celtic tattoo across his back. He tends to not wear a shirt (gets in the way of the wings and all), wears leather style pants, boots, and those so nifty but utterly useless arm wrappings that you see in martial arts comics. The blade he carries is a relatively light sword, think something just a little heavier in build than a rapier, as fits the bladesinger style of fighting. His fey nature shows up often in this wild little smirk of good humor, and bad jokes, and well - he *is* easy and a minor lech. On the one hand he's inclined towards whimsy, and on the other towards machivellian sneakiness. He tends to do things at apparent 'random' that were very well planned. As good as you are at conveying emotion/personality, I figured I'd give you more than just the physical description.

Well, if you're taking requests, absolutely I'll make one.
Jovial
Male Human Fighter 4 / Wizard 5
A tall man with an alcoholic scowl (and a nickname he used to live up to), Jovial is a mage-guild dropout. Having lost his family in the Axian Civil War, he is one of the de facto commanders of the Axian loyalists, the others being Alezandra Zanitos and Craif Faragher. Jovial stands about 6'3, with a slight paunch. He wears his old red-and-black mage robe over black breeches and a black tunic. Many belts girt his midsection, supporting a simply crafted single-edged longsword, some five magepistols [a hallmark of my game is magic-powered guns) and a magic powered SMG, sculpted to look like a demon. The SMG was lifted off of the daugther of a familial enemy. His abandoned magic training is limited to protective spells, which he uses in place of armor. He typically fights with his sword in his right hand, and the SMG in his left.
If you would be so inclined to sketch him, I'd gladly return the favor - I'm a wizard at house rules, so if there's any feat/prc/magic item you've been dreaming of, I'll stat it in a mechanically sound and balanced way.

An old but not particularly powerful Wizard with an old but not particularly powerful Raven familiar. The interesting thing is that they have grown to look a lot like each other. Its not so much what they can do but what they might know that puts a sparkle in their eye.

Oooooh, a lot of those requests look nifty. I will be getting to work on 'em, right after I finish the last two fey.
This one is modern, more so than any of the others. Though they've been known to have appeared only the last two hundred years, and unlike other fey they keep track of things like inflation! Behold, a tooth fairy. In parts of Europe they're known to turn into field mice, hence the tail and mouse ears.
However, in my setting our well-known tooth faeries not nearly as seelie as they seem. The reason they collect teeth is that it contains a tiny bit of the childhood of the owner, and the innocence of a child is what they feed on. Each time they exchange money for a tooth, they whisper a tiny secret in the child's ear--a little secret that makes the child just a little bit older, more likely to drop their next tooth, and little less of a child.

Looking great Acquana! Love your High Fantasy and the Lord Oberon Pics. I have a request: 'Durel' Tharmium. A base pecil sketch would be cool, but if you could add color to it, I'd be forever grateful. Also, the check for the the commisioned piece that I asked for will be sent out in a couple weeks.
