Midwest Furfest 2013 Wanted Poster Badges!

Heya guys, so this is the official journal for my themed MFF badges for this year. I thought a fair bit about just what I wanted to do to match the theme, and I am so incredibly excited about these and I hope you are as well! The theme for Midwest Furfest this year is "The Pirates of Lake Michigan". So to go with the theme, we have some wanted posters so that the most devious pirates can be brought to justice, or perhaps brag to one another about their notoriety. Also, since I am pretty much strictly a digital artist now a days, this is pretty much the only chance I have at selling badges for MFF since I work from a desktop computer and can't work at the con itself.

Here's an example of what you'll be getting:

That is a completely finished wanted poster badge. Also, you will be getting a large digital file of the fully colored and shaded bust shot used on the badge for your own personal use, see here for size and detail: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11636890/

What is included with these badges?
- A fully customizable bust portrait of your character done up as a pirate.
- A digital copy of your portrait in full detail.
- Customized reward amount, pirate name(if desired) and crime!
- Lamination and Badge Clip

FAQs
- How much will these cost? They are $40
- When do I send the $40? As soon as I confirm that you have a slot in the queue, feel free to send the funds. I will be sketching almost immediately as I get forms in and I will send you a sketch for approval, but I won't go farther than a sketch until after I recieve the funds from you.
- Where do I send the money to? My paypal which is: yourlittlehermione[at]yahoo.com
- When will these be completed? I will be working on these from the moment that I get my first form. I can't really give you an exact time, but I'm estimating that most will be done within 2 weeks of your form being posted.
- What can I request my character to be wearing? Anything you want really! Just keep in mind, these are PIRATE badges. If you want a bandana instead of a hat, that's fine. If you want your character shirtless with some tattoos, that's fine. As long as it's piratey, it's okies with me.
- Can I give you specific links to items I want my character to wear? Absolutely! In fact, I'd prefer this.
- I'm no good with designing clothing, can I just ask you to pick an outfit for my character? Yes you can, I don't mind doing this either!
- Can I request a change of font for any part on the badge? Unless it's for a really good reason, I'm sorry but no. If for some reason your name gets chopped off for example, I will change it no problem.
- I'm not going to MFF, can I still order one? At the moment I am going to say no, I may offer to open these for more people as time goes on, however there will be an additional charge for shipping as well TBD.


So you'd like one, can you please fill out this form and go ahead and post it here.

Explanation of form fields:
- FA Username: Who am I sending the badge to?
- Character ref: A picture reference of your character. It does not have to be an actual ref sheet, as long as all important markings above the waist are visible in the picture. If you absolutely do not have a reference for your character, please write out as detailed of a description as possible.
- Pirate Items: What pirate-y items do you want your character wearing. Keep in mind, this is a bust shot. It is basically from the waist up. So requesting a peg leg, isn't gonna help you lol. But if you specifically want an eye patch or a parrot on the shoulder, or a bandana on the head here's where you'd write it. You can also write down "Your choice" in this field, if you'd rather leave the decision making up to me.
- Pirate Badge Name: What is the name you want on your badge. Like the example, you can have a pirate twist added. Instead of Clemikou only, I put Clemikou the Cutpurse. You can be Dick the Dastardly Deviant or whatever else if you like. XD If you'd like me to come up with my own pirate twist on your name, I can do my best. Just mention this in the Anything Else field.
- Crime: What is the crime that you are being charged with. You can't very well be wanted with a bounty on your head without doing anything now can you? Basically a 1 sentence explaination of your crime, whatever it may be. It can be funny or serious, doesn't matter. You can also write down "Your choice" in this field, if you'd rather leave the decision making up to me.
- Reward Amount: How many doubloons do you want your reward to be? It can be anything you'd like, as long as it fits on the badge. XD
- Anything Else: This is an extra overlap field that covers any sort of extras that might cover anything that was missed in a another field. Here you can write down any specific pose that you'd like(again mind you this is a bust shot, and meant to be sorta an old-timey mugshot LOL). If you're leaving the costume design up to me, you can also write down things here you want to exclude from my designing; like if you absolutely hate red and don't want any on your outfit lemme know, or perhaps you don't want an eye patch at all or would rather your character be shirtless with some kind of tattoos of my choice. You can also write down a brief description of your character's personality so that I can help to figure out a crime and/or pirate name for you as well. Basically anything else you think I need to know before I get started on your badge. This is also the section of the form where you can add extra links to clothing or items you want added to your badge.

Just a note: The queue will more than likely not close, unless I feel like I am getting too far behind on forms. So just because the numbers might be filled, these are not closed until the journal title is edited to say they're closed.

Also random note, the queue in my journal footer is old commissions of mine that need to be completed. The wanted poster badges will NOT be posted in the footer. The footer is more so my daily reminder of what I owe aside from my most recent commissions. So if you order a badge and you're listed on the queue in the body but not my footer, that's okay you're still getting your badge!
