Hmmm... A nice, peaceful scene of two friends (opposite genders), lying on the ground, holding hands, and looking at the clouds might be nice... Though I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to buy the original for at least a year . Possibly longer . Though I could provide recomondations for commisions here RL... Though I don't know if anyone would be interested in commisioning art yet . I could put you in contact with another artist I know, though, and see if you like each others work? Or something? I could also offer a story in return, though I doubt you would be interested in that...

Well that's just real bloody generous of you Chaly. ;D And yes, I still want to buy the original. As for advatising, I know just the way I can do my part in that. A couple of mates of mine run a Sunday market up at the nearest city from where I live. About up to 3-6 thousand people attend it each and every week. If all goes well, I'll contact me mates and see If I can set up a small area there to showcase your work. It probably won't be any bigger than a simple wall to pin various picture up on but it will offer at least some exsposure to the public of you beaut art work. Of course, I'll have to wait until I do buy the pic from you before I can do any of this but I'm almost positive that it can be arranged. The only problem I'll have is trying to convince me mates that this area for the pics is only for advatising for a lovely lady overseas and not somthing finacial gaining for myself. Hopefully if I CAN convince them of that, they might even give me the space free of charge. But I doubt it, they're both a real pair of cunts. Edit, just another thought, my lil brother makes up business cards. That means I should be able to get a hundred or so cards made up with Chal's email address on them and then go around a put 'em up at shops around closes to me. Well, not in my town, only 50 cunts live here, but in in the likes of Bendigo, Shepparton, actual cities that are only an hour and a half drive away. It might not end up being all that much help to you Chaly, but It's something I'll happily willing to do. This will take some time to set up, but I really can't see it bein' a problem to do.

You know X, I'm going to draw your picture in general; I'm just sell prints for them to every interested person. Is that fine with you?
Well, good advertisment will be a real great help in any case - There's just a small copyright problem: If you do it (like said it's REALLY appricated); please don't advertise with Sonic character and Sonic character repaints. Sega accepts and supports fan art; but making money of them or even advertise with them would bring me into devils kitchen ancd I'd get cooked on small flame by Sega's lawers. (Which I fully understand; I'd do the same if someone tried to make money off chalcara and co.)
Pictures who are "dangerous" will be clearly marked as fan-art in my portfolio. And I won't sell their prints/pencil officially. Although if it's your requested pic, then you can mail me inofficially.

That will be most acceptable ^_^ . Do you mind if I write a story to accompany the picture? I have some nice ideas for it... [twitches nose] It could make a nice foreshadowing scene.

Thanks for agreeing to do that socialistic picture Chal; I hope you'll make some money off it I really do. With regards to removing any direct reference to a historical happening I was wondering if you could please clarify. Do you me a specific RL purge or are you talking in boarder terms so that the picture would be completely generalized. The reason I want to know is because, if the picture was completely generalized you would have no idea why the people w're being shot, they could be Jews, soldiers who have committed mutiny, POW's or any number of other peoples. I agree that casting the picture in ambiguity can make it feel quite hunting because it allows the viewer themselves to imagine why this is happening and in other cases it would be a fine idea but I wanted this picture to have a greater impact and send a message other than just being anti oppression. Obviously you have your reasons, you mentioned not wanting to get into trouble so how about this, if the picture you intend to draw is going to be so vague that you have no idea why the men are being shot, perhaps you could include a powerful quote, just one line, along the bottom of the picture in order to fill the void left by the picture? I'm not sure what quote you could use, although I'm sure I'll think of one in time, also you might come up with a nice one yourself. Lastly, I'm not going to promise to buy a copy of this picture, however I will say that it is most likely I will, depends on how it turns out. Thanks again Chal, I'm heading off to London now to protest against Bush's visti to the UK and them 'm attending the anual ISR (International Socialist Resistance) cofrence so I'll be a busy little commie for a few days. ;D

Whoa, this is awesome. Chalcara's taking requests. That's really cool of you. I was wondering if you could do a picture of a character of mine. I can PM you a physical description, as well as his history/skills/whatnot to give you a better idea of who he is and what he's like. He's a medieval-themed character. ^_^

Yeah, but that would be the LAST one I take. Yours and then no-more. Although MAILING me would be much more efficient. And getting the request done takes me a long time... maybe even up to nine months.

Hey Chal, can you...... *smashes head against wall* Why couldn't I have looked at this sooner...? Actually, just seeing what you do with these requests should be good enough for me. Your a shit-hot artist Chalcara.
