Here's a bump and there's a bump, anywhere a bump bump!
Omgwtf?!?!? KILL IT!!! ehehe... Yeah, as always, this is about whatever I want and it's kind of random. Mostly about stuff I have on gaia...
For the BURN Fun in the Sun Gift Art Event
So exciting! I can't wait to see what great talent is out there!

Things Irako Likes to See
Fanart subjects
~Black Jack by Osamu Tezuka
~Vincent Law from Ergo Proxy
~Gaara
~Renji
~Marik
~Kaoru from Ouran High School Host Club
~Holo and Lawrence from Spice and Wolf
~Zuko
~Syaoran from Tsubasa
~Kurogane from Tsubasa

Whatever style you do, that's great! Be creative and come up with something way original that nobody else will have. I love to see new and original outfits on these characters. Zuko in Victorian Gothic sounds so cool. Gaara in a Chinese-style outfit would be awesome. Crossovers are also gladly welcomed and encouraged. Just no yaoi or shonen-ai.

Fantasy Art
~Dragons, dragons, and more dragons!
~Phoenixes
~Unicorns
~most mythical creatures

I prefer elegance and drama in these sorts of things. Don't include people with the animals unless they are there as partners and friends. I like fantasy art that sort of tells me a story. A dragon peering over the shoulder of a small girl reading a book out loud as she leans against his shoulder is a story. A gryphon that crouches over a nest as a surprised mountain climber quickly backs up is cool too.

Et Cetera
If none of the above is your cup of tea, then try these things

~Star Wars (No Asooka or whatever the heck her name is, Anakin's "apprentice". She doesn't exist as far as I'm concerned because Anakin didn't have time during the Clone Wars to get an apprentice before they ended and he became Darth Vader)
~Avi Art (Whatever I currently have on is fine)
~OC art (Mine or yours is fine, but check the stuff I don't like seeing first. Check out my writing entries in the arenas and see if that gives you any ideas)
~Awesome work with pencils, pens, markers, crayons, watercolors, Photoshop, etc., etc.
~Anime


Things Irako Doesn't Like to See
~ No yaoi, yuri, shonen-ai, shojo-ai, or homosexuality in general. Not that I have anything against homosexuality or anything like, I just don't like that kind of art. It makes me feel like I'm missing out, you know?

~Cliches. I don't need to see Gaara in yet another pose surrounded by sand or Zuko surrounded by fire. Dragons do not have to be slain by brave knights, unicorns do not have to be lured by lovely young maidens. Handsome, broody-looking vampires also count as a cliche. A schoolgirl in a cute uniform or transforming into a magical girl is also a cliche. Chick with animal ears and/or tail? Cliche. Elves doing magic? Cliche. Be original!

~Things that don't make sense. I like it when pictures tell a story, but it has to be kind of obvious. I don't do subtlety very well and if you're going for something obscure, chances are I won't get it unless it's explained to me.

~Unoriginality. I've seen a lot of artwork online. I'm familiar with some of the big fantasy artist's work. Show me something new and exciting, don't reuse somebody else's stuff.



Good Luck!
