PHEW holy fuck, It's finished!!!
I've been working on this drawing non-stop for five days.
ALSO YEAH WOW the image is huge, AT ONCE. Sorry for stretching the ui!
It's the first time I've ever drawn not two, not three, but a whopping TWELVE characters on the same drawing.
Remember this -> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10401753/ drawing from 2013? (You prolly don't but here it is anyway!)
WELL, I've been planning to draw a sequel for, I don't know, YEARS, literally. Pretty much ever since I've had enough OC's to make a full team. For multiple reasons I never actually got to drawing it; most of it was that I wasn't playing TF2 anymore, or I was art-blocked, or it was WAY too much to work on. Back then I only got as far as to plan what each character's class would potentially be.
But yeah the stars aligned this time round and I decided to just throw myself and do a promising yet very rough sketch of it... after not having drawn in ages; honestly I don't know how the hell I jumped in.
Anyway, at first I almost dropped it after seeing the basic draft because it already was overwhelming; and after failing multiple times on drawing Bangs, because I started from her, and then went front to back to reduce overdraw... but after a bunch of funny interruptions (Including a power outage; I spent 5 hours listening to AM radio!) I picked it up again and tried again. Inking character after character. After I got the thing going it was just a matter of keeping it up daily.
And wow, I did it! 5-days almost non-stop! ;v;
And yeah, those 12 are characters of mine! I don't expect you to know them at all (some of them I've only drawn, I don't know, twice).
In fact if you were to name 5 or 6 of them already I'd be delighted lol
But yeah in any case here they are, Left to right, top to bottom:
The sad jar of marmalade as Sniper, random kitty as Spy, random doge as Soldier, the ghastgirl as pyro, Holly as Medic, Herman as Heavy, Bolk as Demoman, Kriyu as second Sniper, the Hornet hornet as Scout, Bangs as second Scout, Caterpija as second Soldier and Glauki as Engineer.
I picked the classes in relation to their personalities and perks and whatnot and trying to keep the team balanced (I thought it out somewhat, find the details!)
ANYWAY, It's out of my system, finally, after so many years of thinking and not executing ;u;
I put quite some effort on this and I like the end result!
Drawing/Coloring/Shading this thing was HELLISH but boy it's worth it!
i did it guys!!

Oh it was a struggle to get the classes for each character, some of them were straightforward (Bangs, Kriyu, Herman, Holly, the ghastgirl) but most of the rest required some strength and weaknesses analysis and bit of process of elimination. Caterpija almost became a second pyro (that snout haha) but I wanted to have the Ghastgirl be the iconic only pyro in the team, so he became a shotgun soldier.
Glauki got Engineer because she wouldn't have had to get far away from her sentry/dispenser, and also she got big chunky hands for big chunky building (? haha
Thanks!

In all seriousness though, It could be possible depending on the circumstances, but it'd be very expensive even if it was half the characters and it's a whole lot of work I mean.
Like, people usually charge extra per additional character, or a percentage of it, dunno. I imagine a drawing as massive as this one, with so many characters (twelve!), it could very well go above 270$ for the whole thing, if we keep in mind base prices and the amount of time it took me to finish it (5 days of almost non-stop work).
But yeah, in any case I would not be doing commissions right now, and this kind of drawings would be pretty much out of the scope, or I'd charge quite more for it. Don't think I'd want to draw nearly as many characters in a single drawing aaaaaaaaaaany sooner ^^;
So yeah, sorry bout that, but thanks a lot for considering commissioning me!

Oh, I wasn't thinking about a 12 person photo- maybe like 6 or 8 the most.
And it wouldn't have to be so articulate either, just your normal flow.
But as long as group pics aren't entirely out of the picture, I'm interested!
I'll be waiting for an open comm slot one day.
