Gift art for a friend
12 years ago
I need to make some examples for future commissions, so I'm starting my Christmas gift event a little early. This is how it works.
Pick out a friend you'd like to give some gift art to and link me to their 'sona or one of their characters. If you like, you can also post why you think they're an awesome friend. (if you want it to be super secret and don't want them to see your post, you can send me a note).
I will go through all the posts and pick some out at random to make a gift art!
This gift art will take the form of various types of icons, badges, etc. that I will be taking commissions of in the future.
Some caveats:
Don't post anyone who doesn't like receiving gift art
I'll be playing around with styles, so it's best not to pick someone who likes their character done in a very specific way. I won't be making any edits.
These are going to be used as examples and will be displayed here in submissions and at cons. Don't choose someone who is protective of their character and doesn't want it to be displayed publicly.
After moving, I have a large painting commission that takes precedent, so it might be a long while until I get around to these.

Because I'm sure her fursona would look amazing in your style.
Gosh I have two friends
I'd toss up
Each one is fantastic
I suppose though

Another Example
Honestly,
He's probably one of the longest running friend I have
Although he's horrible at showing emotion and feeling
He does his damned hardest to make me happy
Even if he doesn't know necessarily how to
He's been there through my most horrible moments
Whether family or other friends
But that's just me :3
I shall try my luck to give my friend meggersnuff something, I think he deserves it cause he really cares for all of his friends and always comes asking if everythings okay when he notices that someone's having a bad day :3
Here's a couple of his characters to choose from:
Sinni (feline)
Aura (canine)
Yire (feline)
Want to enter
He is my boyfriend and i think this would be a nice gift :)
*shrug* alright <3

This used to be her fursona but she no longer has one as she is more of a human artist now but it's always fun to remind her of the old days. Ahlii and I have been best friends for 10 years, all because we had the same shoes in the Third Grade of Elementary school. We've been there for each other through thick and thin, no matter what. Though it's a bit harder now that I've moved two hours north with the only way to get to each other by way of a horrible main road, this hasn't changed. I don't remember where I heard this term but I honestly think the word for our friendship is platonic soulmates. Haha!
If this would count as a commission, then ignore me because I have no money :'D
I'll try my luck and enter my lovely friend - RedAkai. She's extremely lovely, patient and trustworthy person. She's always with me when I need someone, listens to my sofreakingannoying complaints and cheers me up
Her fursona is an anthro pine marten --> Picture
Nothing really complicated :3 More pictures of her:
Link, Link2, Link3.
Thank you sooo much for the opportunity!
Either Syn - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8907032/
Or Johl - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9452699/ (The one on the left. Syn is also in the pic)
(ref of her sona') http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11343348/ and one with me and her in the same image: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11481436/ I love her and she deserves somthing special!!!! <3 And your a great artist!
Reason: He has been by my side through thick and thin, keeping me out most trouble since my partner passed last year.

He's my roommate and one of my best friends. We laughed so hard at AnthroCon that we literally started crying from making up our own little jokes. SO MANY PUNS. I think he really undersells his art skills and sewing abilities and doesn't realize how amazing he is. He's really funny and creative and leaves us little doodles around the dorm in the morning of our characters which is just about the greatest thing to wake up to. In return I like to leave him silly doodles on the whiteboard to hopefully cheer up his day <3 He just always makes me laugh, especially when we start quoting Parks and Recreation.

He's been a very great of mine from the great white north for the past five years. He's been there for me for every low I've had and every high I've had as well. He's always been that guy that pushes people to be successful and has a personality that is hard to not get along with. I'm sure he'd definitely appreciate this opportunity, if given the chance. also, burds burds burds
I'd love for my friend
SalemPertaeus recieve a gift.
He is so sweet and even when he's not feeling well or having a hard time at school
he takes time to make sure I'm doing okay and cheer me up if I'm not.
Salem
This is the only art of his sona.
He deserves something from a wonderful artist like you.
Thank you for offering this chance.
It is very generous of you.
Because she's just such a sweet gal and an amazing artist, who deserves to have art drawn for her for a change C: She's been doing a pretty huge load of commissions, trades and giftarts lately, so I think it'd be nice for her to receive a gift C:
And her fursona is just absolutely adorable and fabulous, of course, and I'd love to see your take on her C:

She doesn't have a current reference uploaded so I put together one from her videos: http://sta.sh/01n54veqjf7d
She's been incredibly kind and supportive to everyone she meets and is one of the most wonderful people I know~
It is difficult for me to put into words why I consider her such a great friend, but she has been such a warm, inviting, and supportive friend since the first day that I met her. She goes out of her way to make sure others are taken care of ahead of herself, and sometimes this means she suffers as a result. But still, she does it. I am amazed at her selflessness every day. It would mean a lot if I could give something back to her, especially by surprising her with something from you!
Her character is Aimery:

She has other characters, but this is her main one.
She can be wearing just about anything or nothing at all.
Scott
Talon has been a major character basically his entire life. He doesn't have hardly any art of her at all.

The only caveat with her is she never smiles and her eyes are always completely black.
Thank you so much for the opportunity!

Piece I did a long while ago.
She is also really my best friend, I enjoy spending all of my free time with her, and I have never met anyone that I could get along with so well. She deserves all of the nice things, and I know that she just loves your art, so I have to give this a shot :p
Here is her ref (hope you don't mind the mild nudity): http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7881678/
And thank you for holding such an event, it is really an awesome idea!
also my sister has always helped me when other family members haven't and she is the only other person to understand me..

her house lately has gone under construction and she's doing all she can to help her mom fix the house and also keep working hard on her fursuit business which is beautiful and a lot of time and effort to put into. she needs a little something where she can smile again instead of having a dark cloud over her head.

I've been close friends with her for 9 years now. We originally met on TLKFAA, when I was only 11.
We've both been through a lot since then, and we've managed to become closer, because we understand each other.
She's had a lot of secrets that she literally has to hide, for fear that her own family might reject her... such as coming out of the closet, and even becoming depressed to the point that she harms herself. But somehow, Im the only person she's really been able to tell, because we both know that I could never judge her for anything. I love her exactly the way she is, and I've already made that clear. I honestly couldn't ask for a better friend~
However, we haven't talked in a while, since her last ex has been practically controlling and mentally abusing her...
Actually, the reason we even BECAME friends, is because I was going through basically all the same stuff (minus the coming out of the closet part, heh), but she was there for me, every moment. She always spoiled me with random gifts, and made me laugh and smile, in ways that nobody else could... We were even pen pals all throughout my time in high school!
Now I just think that a little art from you, would be awesome enough to cheer her up.
I know I can't physically be there for her, as much as I really want to... so this should at least be something to help.
I think this will be my late return for how she helped me years before. <3
Here's her 'sona refs:
Main, Blu :http://www.nabyn.com/character.php?id=4993
Secondary, Fly: http://www.nabyn.com/character.php?id=4998
Third, Poltergeist: http://www.nabyn.com/character.php?id=4999
(she loves them all equally, so it's completely your choice who to pick)
((And just 'cause, here's an awesome gift she made for me, of my 'sona, too: http://www.keyoxx.com/QueenKiva.png ))

They're my best friend in the world, always able to make me smile, always there for me, and knows me better than I know myself most days. They're the only person I've ever met who knows I dance when I cook in the kitchen, and I sing when I draw, or that I'd sleep with a lightsaber under my pillow if I had one, and never looked at me funny for being different. And in a lot of ways they saved me, from an abusive household/relationship, from myself, and from the things I'm afraid of, that don't seem so scary when they're there to hold my hand. ^-^ for that, Nordo is the best friend I could ever have.

He is sweet in his own way, and even someone like him should have some joy in their life...especially on Christmas. This is just a friend being a good friend to another. <3
