Have You Dweebs Ever Been Dweeb Enough to get Art of Your Character Done?

[Abstract Debauchery]

I'm talkin' commissions. For those of you that don't engage much in RP communities surrounding MMORPGs, you might be surprised to find that RPers tend to get artwork of their characters done. A lot. So much so that it's a bit silly. I've been playing on Balmung since launch as that's where the majority of RP goes down, and here lately I've gotten a bit of artwork done of my character and was wondering if anyone else did the same.

This is what my character looks like in game. Please ignore that bright lighting as that was done to get a better idea of what colors to use on the outfit.

Below is the finished piece that I paid actual money for.

I'm extremely happy with the result. I've had a lot of other ones done, but this one is my favorite! But I can help but wonder if any of you have done the same. Share your stuff if you have it, fam.

That looks great!!

I actually really enjoy this kinda stuff. I dunno why. It's just cool. I don't even RP @shivas has sketched my character a few times (I forgot if she shared it here before), though I've never gone out and commissioned an artist for myself directly. Maybe one day

I've got a few


this one is my faaaaaavourite, I commissioned this artist once before this in like 2011 and I've picked her again to draw Nevyn and she did such an amazing job

I follow this artist on instagram and I couldn't resist it when they opened watercolour commissions (this is from the artist's IG page but I currently have it hanged on my art wall B) )

here's another sketchy one from another artist B)

aaaand here's a commission of @Ross 's character that I got him for his birthday last year
