I know a lot of people do these — commissions based around a specific theme, for a lower price than their usual fare. And since I am suddenly both wanting to do something art-wise and creatively bankrupt, I'm wondering if anyone might be interested in me doing something like that. There are two themes I have in mind:

#1: I was a little disappointed when nobody ended up filling out my caught-by-animal-control-officer-Cheyenne meme, but would anyone be interested in paying me to do it for you? Your character doesn't have to actually fit in the net, of course; they can just be standing next to her, leashed and reacting however you think they would react to getting caught by her. I'd include the same background as my original entry. Basically it'd be a two-character-plus-background shot for the same price as (or slightly less than) a single-character-with-no-background piece, because half the work's already done.

#2: I've been digging the "sexy Portal turret" costumes (as seen here and here), and I'm curious if any Portal fans would like to see their character in one. This is another case where I could include a background for free, since I can just take a screenshot from the game with the HUD and portal gun invisible and paste the character on top of it, although I'd be limited to the resolution of my monitor in that case.

In fact, if anyone really wanted me to get fancy, I know my way around the level editor and might even be able to whip up a custom map to take the screenshot in. It'd cost extra, but I could probably do it.

Either of these sound intriguing to anyone out there? Let me know in the comments.
