100 PALETTE IRON ARTIST CHALLENGE: SPECIAL UPDATE
11 years ago
Tip Jar! (do not pay for commissions this way, please!)
Palette Checklist * Palette Requests/Commissions * Official FAQ
Hiya folks! Before I begin, I just want to make a shoutout to all the people that have been helping me with my dumb lil' project, from those that threw in for commission slots to those who asked for freebies! We're already past the 50+ mark and there's still room left, but still I thank you guys just for allowing me to get this far. With any luck, I'll be able to finish all 100 palette pics before the year's end, where I'll finally assemble all 100 pics into one giant-sized file to post on both my FA accounts, DeviantArt and Weazyl.
With that said, I now offer two bits of news regarding the Challenge, one being good news and the other being a question/poll of sorts.
First one is a biggie: starting right now, I am increasing the limit of Freebies you may request for to *three*, meaning if you're a regular that's been itching to see more art of any of my characters, now's your chance to request it! The three-Freebie limit also includes people that have already gotten their Freebie already, meaning that you're essentially starting fresh, and then some!
Keep in mine that my one-character-per-palette rule still stands, meaning you can only ask for characters that have NOT been drawn yet for palettes that have NOT been picked yet. The official FAQ has a few suggestions of what you can ask for if you're unsure.
The following question is specifically aimed at Palette commissioners. As you know, the price for each Palette is Pay What You Want with a $5 minimum, with the extra cash being used primarily as a donation bonus for those who enjoy my work. I'm ridiculously grateful for every palette commission I get no matter what price you pay and that's never going to change. That said...what if I were to throw in some kind of bonus art of some kind for every Palette pic that goes over a certain price, say $30 or more? I have some ideas for this:
A) An "unofficial" Palette, where you may ask for a second separate character pic using the same Palette color as the first one. This one would not be bound by the one-character-per-palette rule (and in fact could be a character already drawn for the "official palette"), but would still have the SFW-only rule instead.
B) Offer up a "Wallpaper" version of your Palette pic. The images by default are fairly big, so it'd be a matter of you giving me the format you want your palette to be and what would it be a wallpaper for (Computer? Smartphone? Tablet?)
C) A "Palettes At Night" NSFW variant of your requested character and palette color in a significantly more fanservice-tastic pose, genitalia and nips allowed. Note these will *ONLY* be available for people requesting their own characters/a friend's character; no "Freebie" charactes (that is, my own) or official characters from popular media allowed. Due to personal reasons, I will not accept herm, taur or feral characters for the NSFW offer (asking for these in the regular/SFW Palettes is fine, however). Fan-characters based on popular media (for example, pokemorphs), are welcome.
I'll leave that poll up for a week before I decide where I'll go with this.
By the way, the quicker you guys help me with finishing this challenge, the quicker I can open up for some brand-new products to aspire to and offer to you guys, so every little bit helps.
Thanks again for making my life a little bit more colorful!
Though I have to wonder if Option C came because of the challenge to keep a certain 'zard PG haha >>
