Let me start by saying that I totally lack the ability to draw, paint, or otherwise create visual representations of something that's in my head. That said, I do enjoy photo manipulation and using Photoshop to create artwork. I recently the created the below signature to fit to my newly discovered fursona. I can also create such sigs from cartoons or drawings. If anybody wants one or something similar, let me know. I work for love :D

If you're willing to do artwork, I would love to have one.
What do you wish to know / need for such a great signature picture?
-
Whoa that looks great! I think I may ask for one as well XD
-
i love you! *cling* :3
-
Hey Otebon, let me know if you like this. I just did some random stuff, it really takes the eye of another to know if it's good. If you were thinking a different style or different pictures or something, let me know. Basically all I need to make one is one or two pictures. If you want a general animal, like your timber wolf instead, that I can do really easily.
Let me know Sig! And aww thanks KangaDrake! :D
Edit::: hold your thoughts on that one, unless you want something totally different; I've already realized how to improve it.

That's fantastic Grisli. Really top notch!
Thanks!
-
Wow Sweet work Grisli

Thanks all! Version 2 attached. Personally, I like this a lot better. I forget to do the curves, color balance, and stuff like that the first time.

There we go... Now I got it all figured out.
I love the blue (favorite color, nice choice). If you ever feel the need to make another one for me, I adore the moon, the metal silver, the color dark blue, and literature.
Have at it, but not going to ask for another. Your gift is fantastic!
-
Otebon, I'd love to make another one. I've been really quite bored lately so having something to do is making me happy.
Sigcutio, I've made you one. I know you didn't expressly ask for it, but here it is anyway XD

:o
You are fast at these! I'm a bit afraid now to get up away from the computer to go make a sandwich. By the time I come back, you'll have made everyone on the forum one of these!
-
What program do you use to make those Grisli? gimp Or photaShop Pro C5?
-
Hahaha well don't worry about that. I'm actually going to be watching a hockey game pretty soon, but I'll do more later tonight maybe. :D I'm glad everybody is enjoying them.
And I use Photoshop CS4 actually because it was easier to *removed* find. :P
-
OOOOOOh shoot! Thank you that looks awesome!!! :D :D :D
Very nice job!
-
No problem! I'm glad you like it :D

I could make you one, Drake. I don't exactly have a reference point for a foxaroo though. Let me know!
Yep :) Otebon mentioned he likes literature, and what better quote than one from A Midsummer Night's Dream?
-

I can definitely work with that. Give me until tomorrow sometime. It's getting late here and I've gotta get up and hit the gym tomorrow then run a few errands before my trip to London this weekend. I will definitely make you an awesome sig though.
-
alright!! *cheer* thanks!
-
Been a day of showing off my new Sig and in absolute love with it.
I know that all I've been doing is gushing appreciation, but...
THANKS GRISLI!!!!!!!!!

I have to agree with Otebon here
Thank you!
XD
-
I know everyone else has already said it a billion times, but Grisli...
Thou art an artist! And a dang good one at that!
<.<
>.>
Would you hate me if I ask for one as well? I don't have any artwork or reference art to put into it, but still...
Pweez? 0:)
-
You guys are more than welcome! I enjoy doing this! That said, here are two more. One for the foxaroo and one for the black wolf. I kinda went more grungy on these ones. If you don't like em, let me know, and I can fix em.

I'd be happy to make one for you, Kaya, if you want. Let me know :D
-
Ud do dat? Do I have to pay you anything? :o :o :o
-
No of course not! I do it 'cause I like doing it. Just let me know some stuff about what you want on it, like what animals or if you have a picture of your fursona or whatever and I'll make it for you. :D I work for hugs.
-
*Gives Grisli a bear hug*
Here's my payment, sir! ^_^
-
*Gives Grisli a bear hug*
I see what you did there Leiton. And you know what? I've said thanks a million times, but haven't actually given a hug.
*Hug
Hope it fits, the guy at the store says it's a "one-size-fits-all" sort of thing.
-
*hug tackles grisli* you are epic. I am a black and purple wolf, my art sucks so any black wolves would do. ^_^
-
Do you think maybe you can make Taco one??
-
Not bad! I love playing around in photoshop like so and I think yours looks great ^_^
-
Thanks for the hugs! :D :D :D
Kaya, here is your sig. Taco, I'll start working on yours in a few minutes :) Edit::: What kind of stuff do you want in yours, Taco? If you have a reference pic for your fursona or if you could just let me know what kind of creature you are, I can get started.
Hope you like it!
Thanks Timmy!

*glomps Grisli* tankyou thankyou thankyou!!! ^_^
going to have to wait until i get home to apply it though... -_- the school computer will not let me. -_-
-
You're quite welcome! I'm glad you like it :D
-
What kind of stuff do you want in yours, Taco? If you have a reference pic for your fursona or if you could just let me know what kind of creature you are, I can get started.
I am a dragon bunny...it's all on my profile :3
-
(*He uses photoshop... he needs base pictures to play with...)
-
I still working on my base pic going to take time to come any were close to finish lol ^^
but once i'm donw i would love to get sig like that
-
finally got around to inserting it into my sig, thanks again grisli ^_^
-
You're quite welcome Drake. Thanks Otebon, that's correct.
However, if you'd rather have a sig with just a regular animal I can do that too, thanks to google images, but if you want your fursona him/herself in there, I need a base picture to play with.
Also, I saw this last night in a welcome thread and it made me happy haha

hey Grisli, i would love(you said you work for love) one. if you can get/make a platypus.
-
For you, Platypus Cami.
I know it's not great. I'll work on another version later on. Let me know what you think of this one, though.
EDIT::: Version dos point oh. I'm much happier with this one.

[attachment deleted by admin]
-
its pretty good for not being great! XD :o
-
I'm glad you like it Cami :D
Taco, I'll see what I can do. It might take a bit of creative liberty but I might be able to work it out. Tomorrow though. It's after 1 am here and I've been up since 3:30am and been from London on bus-plane-bus-subway-tram to Bratislava and then to Vienna, so I'm quite tired.
-
*giggles* I understand... if it helps i'm a out-there but very simple, emotional person....
-
Found another picture of a dragon bunny that proved to be much easier to work with. I hope you like the result, I think it's one of my better ones:

Just finished another piece. This one was non-commissioned. I met another bear the other day on IRC, name of Lita Sableoak, and saw she had a DA collection, so I checked it out. I thought it was awesome that she looked so much in build/level of anthropomorphization to what I had imagined Grisli to be. Here's her original image: http://www.deviantart.com/download/215674254/magic_burns_brighter_by_litasableoak-d3kenbi.png (http://www.deviantart.com/download/215674254/magic_burns_brighter_by_litasableoak-d3kenbi.png)
I didn't want to make a signature out of it, per se, so I decided to take everything I learned making signatures and try to make a wallpaper. Here's the result. All in all, I'm very happy with it.
