Aspin's Build-A-Trainer! (on hold)

[teabut]

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE REFERENCES OF YOUR TRAINER DO NOT ASK FOR A REQUEST.
I WILL do my research and find out if you do. This thread is for people who do not have any and need one to use instead of stealing artwork from the internet.

So, during my short time here on Pokécharms, I've noticed that a lot of people use other artist's work to portray their own trainers. Now, I understand that artwork ain't cheap and it's hard to find artists willing to do requests. Believe me, I used to do it too.

But what if you could have your own personal trainer artwork to use for all of your pokemon needs? Want a reference image for roleplaying? A pic to use as an icon? A ref for spriting?

Well look no further! Your friendly neighbourhood artist is here to help! I will be offering up trainer design requests for people who have absolutely NO trainer art or trainer designs for themselves (sprites don't count)! n_n Simply fill out the application provided: give me as MANY details as you can. References to work from are ideal. I will chip away at them between my scheduled commissions and will even live-stream their creation if you're interested! Keep in mind that the process will be slow, since I have other artworks to work on which take priority.

[GeneralBug]

Hello. I though I might make I request, perhaps? Having read though the application thingy, I have come up with the following:

Hair Style: Just bellow shoulder hight, I’ll leave details to you (I’m not the best with this kind of thing).
Hair Colour: Dark brown.
Skin Colour: A kind of pale tan.
Eye Colour: A sort of aqua-y cyan.
Clothing: A longish trench coat (somewhat similar to the one bellow), jeans, simple shirt, fancy hold-y-stuff belt.
Clothing Colours: Grey trench coat, dark blue jeans,
Expression: The facade of happiness with a hint of sadness and longing, if that makes sense. Or just happy. That works too.
Personality: Reserved, but friendly.
Accessories: A sort of utility belt thing with trainer-y stuff on it (balls, potions, repels, etc) and a fedora (because why not).
Pokemon: Most notably Feraligatr, Sylveon and Ampharos.
Extra: Um... height of roughly six feet (perhaps useful for scaling?).

Spoiler: Reference images

Fedora (it can't hurt to be thorough):

Trench coat (but longer and unstolen):

Fancy eye colour:

Also, thanks for doing requests. It’s a really great thing to do for people, especially considering the amazing quality of your work.

 

[RafuRum]

Eye: a serious looking one? *similar to FMA col.Mustang's eyes*
Eye color: black
Clothing: A black Snorlax Hoodie *similar to ORAS team Magma's hoodie but Snorlax style *, Brown Cargo shorts slightly lower than knee length*, and a pair of brown slip-on loafers with no socks on..
Expression: confident, with a slightly smuggish smile?
Personality: Reserved, Chill, Smart
accessories: A red bandana/scarf tied around the neck, and a button pin/badge on it
Pokémon: Snorlax with a red bandana/scarf on it too..
Height would be 5'9''

sorry I got awfully specific... but I hope it works...

 

[teabut]

Ah thank you so much guys! The requests are great practice for me, and it helps the artist community n_n
That way people have their own artwork to use instead of using someone elses'. Believe me, I used to use stolen art ALL the time and I'm just trying to right my wrongs this way!

I will get to these requests shortly! No problem with specificity @RafuRum ! It helps me a LOT when I'm drawing, because it gives me an image in my head to work from!

Spoiler

 

[Shiny Motley]

Eeee this is really cool! *u* You don't have to do this if you're busy with the other requests but I thought I'd put this here regardless? ^^;

Gender: Male
Hair Style: Pulled back, in a long, low ponytail
Hair Color: Blonde (kinda like Cynthia's I guess)
Skin Color: very slightly tanned
Eye Color: blue; I don't really have a shade in mind for this
Clothing: black leather vest with various pockets and a zipper down the front, always open, a white long-sleeved t-shirt, and light blue denim jeans, slightly damaged. Oh, also black fingerless gloves, also leather.
Clothing Colors: see above
Expression: a little cocky and mischievous
Personality: he likes to stick his nose in things like one of those funny reporter people. Can be arrogant at times and likes acting tough, but he's actually a real sweetie and his guilty pleasure is rom-coms.
Accessories: a red notebook and black pen
Pokemon: his trusty partner is Joule the Mienfoo, and she's very playful with a love for berries. She loves Pecha berries especially.
Extra: Joule's his trusty cameramon, and she's usually the one running around climbing places to get the best shot. So if you can include her having some sort of camera (the model is up to you), that'll be great~ Joule is also pretty short for a Mienfoo, about 2'5 or so. Speaking of height, Kelvin's 5'9.

Only reference I have is an old sprite I made back in the day (I know he has a short-sleeved hood instead of a vest here but just bear with me okay):

Personality: Jeydis strives on showing off her unusual battling styles and normally relies on the element of surprise in battle. She is a bit boisterous and does not back down from a challenge. She is well travelled and has grown more attached to pokemon then people of late which has made her grow up to be a bit of a hard ass to the rookie trainers she meets. She will teach the willing though and has a ranch set up in norther Hoenn where she raises her pokemon and anyone else's who are willing to leave them in her care to learn new tricks.
Accessories: Has a polished brass bracer with a keystone gem in the center on her right wrist. About 3 inches wide. She also has a sharpedo tooth necklace on her neck, the string is a simple leather cord wrapped in crossed fashion around the base of the tooth.

[Allison Nicole Macri]

Hair Style: Long, blonde hair that goes down to her hips that's usually in a high ponytail
Hair Color: Blonde
Skin Color: Fair
Eye Color: Blue
Clothing: A sweater, a skirt, pants, and cowboy boots
Clothing Colors: The sweater's blue with an owl on it, and the skirt and pants are contrasting colors (purple and yellow). The boots are a mixture of tan, brown, and dark brown.
Expression: Determined and confident
Personality: Sara comes from a long line of Pokémon Trainers, all who raised their first Pokémon from eggs given to them at the age of ten. She's cocky, determined, warm-hearted, and a little bit arrogant.
Accessories: The only accessory Sara wears is her visor, which is lime-green and has a Key Stone fit into it.
Pokémon: Sara has an Yveltal she's raised since it was an egg by her side. It's smaller than most of its kind, only up to her knees, but aside from a blue, star-shaped birthmark around it's left eye, it looks almost exactly the same.

 

[ThatDamnEmu]

Realize you might not have time, but you offered, so.....yeah
Gender: Male
Body Type: Lean
Hair Style: Rather plain, short shaggy hair
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Skin Color: Fair
Eye Color: Brown
Clothing: A pair of glasses with black frames, a blue sweater with yellow pull strings, washed out battered blue jeans, and sneakers

Expression: Mid laugh, like there's nothing wrong in the world
Personality: Jake is a quirky fellow. His battle tactics can be a bit odd, even though they get the job done. He is an introvert, and thus does not have many friends. In fact, almost all of his friends are his Pokemon. Alone, or with good friends, Jake is full of energy, happy, and quite the jokester. Put him in a social situation however, and his anxiety takes over, causing him to become very quiet, unsure of himself, and can even cause him to stutter. Regardless of the situation, Jake gives his best in battle, never wanting to let his Pokemon down.
Accessories: A yellow backpack with blue accents, yellow headphones or earbuds, and a wrist-watch on his left wrist.
Pokemon: His partner, Breloom, happy-go-lucky and always giving his all, an Octillery, quirky and full of pep, and finally a Trapinch, quiet and timid, the youngest of the group.
Extra: All of Jake's Pokemon were rescued from poachers, abandonment, etc. Thus Jake and his Pokemon share a very strong bond.

Her Pokémon battling skills place her in her own league.
