Confessions of a FanArtist

• Question: Yay! Since the ask character limits are so restrictive, can I email you at that paypal address to discuss details of what I'm interested in? Thanks! - autumnyte
• Answer:

  You sure can!

• Question: Hi. I absolutely love your art. I was wondering whether you are currently accepting fanart commissions. - autumnyte
• Answer:

  Thank you!  I most certainly am accepting commissions.  I do the work first, then payment is sent to my Paypal account—which is at hopehoover@windstream.net.  
  
  I work in a lot of fandoms, or I can do original character commissions.  Just let me know what you’re interested in.

  
  Regards,

  Hope

Breathtaking.

This is just lovely!

This was a three page commission I just filled for a short Dragon Age 2 vignette comic.  I really had fun fulfilling this commission, not least of which was because the patron was an utter sweetheart.

If anyone wants to watch me color it, I made a recording of the process for livestream.  http://livestre.am/2d4Dg

Now I’m back at working on Pages of Advent Fortune.

I love kickstarter.  It’s one of those processes that really shows the ingenuity of the creative community in working around traditional investing methods. 

I give to as many projects as I can.  And this one just really hit home. 

This is really looking to be a beautiful project

This piece is a really nice rendering.  It was thoughtfully done and the way the characters are drawn just appealed to me.

Well: This is something I had to do. I don’t normally paint fanarts (really), but I have to recognize that is pretty funny. Somehow, you make the character takes something from you, and is also interesting seeing a manga character in a more realistic way.

Do you know the manga/anime? I recommend you a lot! :) These characters are (from left to right) Akabane + Himiko + Gingi + Ban.

I show you s few small details! The picture is bigger than you think :_D

Bueno: Esto es algo que tenía que hacer. Normalmente no hago fanarts (de verdad), pero he de reconocer que es bastante divertido. De alguna manera haces que el personaje tenga algo de tí mismo, y también es interesante ver un personaje de manga de una manera más realista.

¿Conocéis el manga/anime? Te lo recomiendo muchísimo :) Los personajes son (de izquierda a derecha) Akabane + Himiko + Ginji + Ban.

¡Os dejo con unos pequeños detalles! La ilustración es más grande de lo que parece :_D

Kinkmeme eats a bit of my time.  It’s a great way to relax.  That is, when it doesn’t suck me in and take over my brain until I draw Nathaniel Howe having at brand spanking new Grey Warden, Carver Hawke.   hehe… The story that inspired this was very nice indeed.
