So what would a Graphics Shop be without a little pizzazz~?

10yifrt.jpg
Welcome to my Graphics Shop! You can obviously see my name, but I'll do the banal thing and introduce myself anyways. I am firejay1, though pretty much everyone leaves off the 1, and as the title states, I do free image modifications, banners, headers, and yes, blueprints. This is my first time doing a shop and boy am I excited.

Now. First thing's first, of course, you have to get a glimpse of what it is I can do before deciding whether or not you want me to work on your stuff, don't you?

Be aware that if I'm especially proud of it, I will add your request to these samples unless you specifically ask me not to.

1. I have no form. Request what you want in as much detail as you want, and do it in one shot if possible (please don't spam my thread with too many multiple posts if you can help it).
2. I won't look up character pics from a description, though I will from a face claim.
3. Tell me if you want me to change anything.
4. I can't do drawings.
5. If you want a blueprint, do please read the paragraph below that starts with the aquamarine text.
6. Don't expect your request quicker than two weeks.
7. I will display samples of the work I do for you unless you ask me not to.
8. Don't ever PM me for a request. Ever.
9. You may request multiple items at once, or come back and ask me for more stuff after I've finished your first request. I don't have a limit.
10. Don't ask me if I'm open. I'm always open. ;)

So in case you haven't noticed, I do not have a "form" for you to fill out. This is because I don't care what you want. Just kidding. The reason I don't have a form is because I actually enjoy doing things from scratch. If you have a very specific idea in mind, feel free to mention that you want certain color schemes, images, themes, catchphrases, genres, heck describe precisely what you want in morbid detail if you like, but I DO NOT REQUIRE IT. I do, of course, ask that you tell me everything that you want (and I mean EVERYTHING), but be aware that otherwise I will exert all of my creative freedom without bounds. I love to experiment with different styles and am constantly changing, so if you give me a non-specific request, you may find that I have done something different from my old works, and I am just going to consider that my right as an artist. The only thing I will not do is look up character photos for you from a description. I can work with face claims. If you only give me a face claim, I will freely search for pictures of them. But don't tell me "I want my character to be a pale-faced guy with blue hair" cause I don't want the aggravation of trying to decide exactly what KIND of pale-faced guy with blue hair you're thinking of. Be aware that I appreciate writing samples or descriptions of your character's personality or of your RP as it helps me get a better feel for what I'm gonna do, but again, not necessary.

Unless your request is very simple or very specific, I will typically do multiple different types and kinds of the same banner or header and will offer all of the multiples to you (this does not apply for simple image mods and the blueprints). If you don't like some, you don't have to use it, just keep the one you like. If you like all of them, feel free to rotate them, or do whatever you like with them. Point is, once I've done them, they're all yours to do with as you will. I will also provide you a coding box with the links in it for your convenience, and these will include smaller versions of the work if they are rather big normally. I will put these in this thread unless you specifically ask I PM them to you for privacy or whatever, you don't have to tell me the reason. I would like it very much if you tell me if there is something that you do not like or appreciate, and am perfectly willing to make changes. I like honesty, not flattery.

~ The blueprints are a special thing that I offer. ~ I know this is labeled a graphics shop, but I will actually NOT do the blueprint on the computer unless you specifically ask me to do so. I hand-draw all of my blueprints on graph paper (one square = one square foot), and what you will receive is a picture or scan of that drawing. Blueprints are not drawings of the house or anything like that, I cannot draw to save my life. Instead, they will be bird's eye views of the interior structure of the house. Rooms, furniture, stairs, the house or building to scale. You are allowed to be as specific or non specific with descriptions of these as well, but I am not going to do more than one version of the blueprint, though you can still ask me to change things. If you want a digital version of this particular item, I will design the blueprint first by hand, then transfer it into a simple program that will not only give you a simple blueprint, but also a visual of what the house interior would look like. I use SweetHome 3D or HomeByMe, both of which have only outdated and ugly furniture and nothing good in the way of roofs, so I do not guarantee stylistic beauty, only proportion consistency.

I have a life. I am a college student of rather average grades in an extremely difficult school and an extremely difficult major in that extremely difficult school. I have to work hard to do well, and will always put my real life first. When I am not in class, I work in a lab every weekday and it is not unusual for me to get home after 7 most days. I don't have a 9-5 life, I have an 8-7 life. I greatly enjoy requests (like, really really really REALLY love them) and feel like just the practice and experience is worth it, which is why I offer them completely for free, but I can not guarantee that they will always be quick. If you need something before the weekend, I do advise you look elsewhere because I usually can only get to these requests on the weekend, if that. Since I put any work someone requests of me on high priority, I will usually get them to you in two weeks or less, unless it is during midterm/finals season, in which case I will warn you, and you may have to wait a bit longer. I can usually get simple RP ads, headers, or image modification requests (change in eye color, etc) out in a few days, but character banners and blueprints will often take me the full two weeks, as it requires me to sit down and work seriously for hours, often taking me a whole day. Digital blueprints will take me much longer as the software is clunky and slow on top of the time it takes me to design it out in the first place.


Also, since a couple of people have asked me this, I thought I should just add that I do not have a limit on the number of items you can ask for. Of course, if a lot of people are asking me for stuff and you ask for characters banners for three different characters and five different RP Ad banners, I may warn you that I will lower the priority for your stuff simply because the quantity is so large I would rather be able to work on other people's simpler items first. That said, I don't expect anyone to be asking me for that number of stuff and it doesn't worry me excessively that that might happen. Feel free to ask for more than one item at a time, and also feel free to come back and ask me for another item long after I've finished working on any of your stuff. Heck, you could come to me every month and ask for a new one for as long as I'm on this site and running this shop. No guarantees that it'll be quick, but I won't say no to anything in terms of QUANTITY, though I do reserve the right to refuse to do something I don't want to do. Until I decide to close this shop for good, my doors are open to anyone and everyone.

And lastly, DO NOT SEND ME PM'S. I ask that you post all requests here in this thread, so that I can keep this thread current and my inbox clean. If you send me a PM for a request I will ignore your request flat-out without response and leave the conversation. If you do it more than once, I will blacklist you => I won't ever work on your stuff and I also will refuse to roleplay with you outside of bumping into you in a group RP I do not GM. I will also not accept you into any group roleplays I may or may not run. No exceptions. No warnings. I know this sounds a little extreme, but this is because I like people to actually put the effort into READING the things I write when it is relevant. So the same rule applies if you prove to me that you did not at least read the overview. Yes, I know the paragraphs are a lot to read, and it's okay if you screw up here and there, miss something, ask me a silly question, but trust me I can tell when people have flat-out not read my instructions, descriptions, rules, and I deeply do not appreciate it. Don't ask me to draw anything, don't tell me you want Victorian furniture in your digital blueprint, don't ask me to get it done in less than two weeks, do not ask me if I have a form to fill out, and don't just try to describe your character to me. If you can avoid those things, we're solid.

I probably sound scary and picky af, rn, but I am a pretty friendly person, so do feel free to just ask me questions, check in on your request, or send me a PM if you want to chat. I would also actually prefer that you describe your request in a conversational manner, as it puts me at ease (the other reason I don't have a form). Just please don't spam the thread too much, as a matter of consideration for me. I'm the type who is almost always on Iwaku (even when I shouldn't be), so I'll usually respond to posts, requests, etc, within 24 hours :) Thanks!

Sincerely,

My Life Status
I am now super free. I won't be forever, as I'm starting school in August and and have various family events coming up through July, but you can ask me for a lot! (Joan all your stuff is low priority b/c I know it's not urgent and you chill. Hope you don't mind.)


I am formally shutting down my shop. It might not be for forever, but for now I am no longer taking new requests. Thank you so much to everyone who has used my services up til now, and I do intend to finish what I've already been assigned.

Wow. So this is cool. xD UH. Currently I gave myself like twelve new banners to do for an RP I'm in, and I'm hoping to finally get to Joan's image edits and banners then start a new project and finish a couple chapters of my public little story I'm working on which you can read here: WRITING - Godder-wtf how do you spell this (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻: A Spoof

So it's good that you're giving me a little leeway on time. xD I don't mind totally doing the banners from scratch, but I do appreciate it if you tell me if you have anything you WOULD like me to include. You're right, I don't have a form, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in your ideas or desires.
 
Alright, well let's see here...This world has a lot of different parts so I don't want any specific setting going on, I do know I want it to clearly state it's a showcase world that others can use for their own stories if they want (that's why I titled it as a world to share.) Since it is a fantasy setting I suppose it would make sense to have some sort of hinting towards magic in there, but honestly one of the reasons I wanted to give you time was because I have no clue what I want, which I know artists usually hate when people say that, but I'm just really bad at art.

Knowing my schedule and if my motivation stays it will probably take me around a month to complete everything important, but I should have the setting fully compiled in half that time, so if you really do have your hands full I won't be at all offended if you put this on the back burner for a bit. This is probably my largest RP Project yet, really, since it combines every RP I've made within the last 7 years and also a pile of notebooks, some dating back to high school.

I'll stalk that story later on, but right now I'm tired.

Sounds cool! Maybe next time there's a WARP contest (worldbuilding contest we do about once a year) you can submit your world for it!!! I'm excited to be a part, and no problems that you don't know what you want, I actually don't mind that, since I'm not drawing things on my own. :D Check back if you do have something you want. and lemme know when you feel like you're getting close to finished and I'll let you know where I stand in terms of busyness!

Hey man, I'm back with another request. :) I wish to ask of you another RP banner for an ad for my sci fi rp Lancer Squadron: Exploring A New Unknown. Once again I just have a pic or two that I just want edited. You did an awesome job with the kingdom hearts banners and I look forward to what you can do with these. :) I would like just like Lancer Squadron edited on them. Maybe like in a digital scifi font? Anyways I trust in your vision and look forward to hearing back from you.

Just to confirm, you'd only like text added to them and for them to be resized properly?

So sorry for the late reply but yes, that is correct. Thank you very much once again.

Sure, no problem. Since your request is fairly specific, though, do be aware that I won't be going way out there with style (I might if I end up finding a good pic for a second banner).
 
That’s cool. It’s based in the universe of tsukihime and Kara no kyoukai if that helps.
 
@Dmitry I'M SO SORRY I COMPLETELY FORGOT I HAD A REQUEST WAITING FOR ME. WOULD YOU STILL LIKE ME TO WORK ON A BANNER?
 
Sorry for the delay? How's this look?

So, I'm not good at banners or descriptions, so here I am, requesting a simple banner for my RP. The name of the RP is The Hex Breaker. Maybe you could do something where the text starts decays or looks older ( since the idea of the RP is a group of teens tick off a sorcerer and are turned older by the sorcerer). Otherwise, thanks for your time and listening to me.
 
I'm not sure how well I can pull off a look like that, but I'd certainly be willing to try! I will do the best I can. I would like to know, though. Is this a medieval fantasy sort of RP? Just so I know beyond the text, the kind of feeling you're going for.
 
@firejay1 It's a modern day RP, but it has fantasy elements to it. ( Basically Modern day fantasy)

@firejay1 Thanks ( and I think 2 and 3 are tied for my favorite, but 2 beautifully emits the theme of time and running out of it for the characters.
 
Feel free to use one or all three of them however you wish!
