My goal in the future is to create a comic series for the NT! I thought the best way to learn how to draw all sorts of neopets is to practice. At this café, there are two different items on the menu: beverages and drawings! :> You can take your order to go or stay and chat. I hope you enjoy your stay here and your servers will be with you soon to take your order. Have a good one! ~red p.s. I'm also accepting trades! :3 dandan graphics and pet art especially~ ♥♥ ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ Intro | Rules | Menu | Servers | Slots | ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ♦ R U L E S & G U I D E L I N E S // No entering any competition with my art, please. I’m sure you won’t win anyways! ;p Please don’t remove my little tag on the picture, unless you tell me in advance that you don’t want it. I’ll try to make it as discreet as possible. One order per person please! (That’s a lot of P’s!) You can order again when you have received your “refreshments”. Please request when slots are free. It is 1st come, 1st serve. (Like a real café!) Some orders may take longer/shorter than others depending on what type it is. Please take a look at the menu for more details. When providing refs, provide details about personality as well as their customized outfits/etc. Some clothing may become simplified and too busy/cluttered references are too difficult for this chef to handle! (I graduated from Cordon Bloo, not Cordon Bleu!) Most importantly, please be patient! Some orders take longer to brew than others. Have fun and enjoy!

Generally speaking, I will not be at the shop (hah look at me already refer it to the shop gosh) in the evening because that’s when I start my Neopets game! Best times for sketches/inks are mornings/early afternoons Mon-Sat as I have a scanner available. Full color pictures may come in different styles depending on the chef’s special du jour (a.k.a. sometimes I have an uncanny urge to do pixel style or cel-shade or soft cg, etc!) and thusly do not have a set time for completion. I try to finish them within the week, however. Please check if the shop is open or closed. I do go on business trips often for work. Hopefully you’ll catch me when it’s open! ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ Intro | Rules | Menu | Servers | Slots | ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ♥ S E R V E R S ( a k a S T Y L E S A M P L E S ) // Skydari (cleaned pencil sketch) A rainbow shoyru with large goggles and a breezy scarf approaches you. She looks absolutely ~thrilled~ to take your order! “Hello! Anything you’d like? When you order from me, it’ll be done in a jiffy!” She choruses as if she were a part in a play. Looking at her readied wings and determined eyes, you can tell that she is speaking the truth. “It’s fast and perhaps a bit messy, but we do try to clean it up and make it look nice and all!” She nods vigorously and hands you an order form. You can’t help but share the Shoyru’s infectious enthusiasm… Goldpika (inked lineart) A rather bored looking Ixi slumps in his chair, as he is TOO COOL for this sort of activity, and finally acknowledges you after you madly wave your arm to alert him. He gets up, taking his sweet time, and finally is within ear-range. “Sketches? Pfft!” He guffaws, crossing his arms. “You should take some time and admire life, you know? It should be bold and outlined for best viewing. Clean and clear, right?” Something about this Ixi’s words sway you and you find yourself taking a form… Cuzzipara (full color) A prim and proper Bruce readjusts her bow to make it look perfect. She notices you and promptly makes her way, already prepared with a pencil in her hand. “Hello, were you waiting for me?” She asks softly, expectantly looking at you. “I’m sorry that I’m not available often, I end up being focused over one single client until he or she is completely satisfied. If you choose me, you might have to be a bit patient. If you’d like, I can give you a form.” The Bruce gently passes an order form to your hands… Deuliaran (??) A Grarrl is busy moving food in and out of the café, trying his best to not lose his self-control and eat the groceries he’s carrying. He has an order form (though a large chunk is bitten off) hanging off the pocket of his apron but you don’t know if you even want to have him as your server. “Sorry,” the Grarrl says apologetically, “the manager says only regulars can know the secret menu.” He gives you a wide, toothy grin and leaves the shop to gather more supplies. You find yourself puzzled. Was that Grarrl pulling a fast one? Ah well, you’ll never know… but you decide to stop by at the café tomorrow as well ::Example Order Form:: ▲Username: redbirdneo ▲Request: ______ sketch/ink/full color ▲References: [links to pet page, or full customized image, or images in general, etc~] ▲Additional Info: [personality, backstory, anything that can help me give "life" to the image] ▲Drinks: super spicy borovan ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ Intro | Rules | Menu | Servers | Slots | ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ♠ S L O T S // Please order when there is a free spot!

Angeló Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 hello , i would love a drawing of my Pirate Ixi , darkphilosophy , please ? she's a pirate , she wears a skull around her neck (which helps her look into the future) , a bomber jacket ... and she has a good sense of humor ... but like all Ixis she is a bit mischievous :) Username: darkobsession (angelo on tdn) ►Request: darkphilosophy the pirate ixi ►References: full color ►Additional Info: provided above :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passiflora Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Wow, what a beautiful and organized thread cafe! I'd be curious to see what you can do with a robot pet (I'd consider them to be one of the most difficult to draw! :P ). It would be cool to get an inked lineart, but if you would prefer to do a sketch I'm okay with that, too. ^_^ *takes form from Goldpika* ◄Username: passiflora (TDN), scaredycrow (Neo) ◄Request: Benjamiinnn the Robot Kougra; inked ◄References: petpage ◄Additional Info: I suppose he's a pretty classy/proper guy. I don't care if there's clothes or a background or not; totally your preference! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rojo Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hello! Thank you for being my first customers! :D I'm already working on the drawings, but I have to ask-- do you prefer your pets to be bipedal (standing on two feet) or quadrupedal (four feet)? I know in Neo's comics they make pets mostly bipedal. C: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course, from his reference he is anthromorphic (bipedal) Thanks so much, your art is so lovely and classy. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry it took a while, I was stuck on the background;;; I think I might not do backgrounds in the future... it's not very good asdfaskjf;;; but I do love Ixis! Here's a small portrait photo if you want to use it as well! :> And if anyone else is interested, this is basically how I work: Messy sketch --> Cleaned Lineart --> (here it changes, I decided to do a cel-shade style for this particulate picture) --> flat colors --> shading --> more shading --> lineart color --> lol background --> color editing --> gradient to combine the foreground & background together --> finishing touches --> and tagged! Passiflora, I'm working on your Kougra next! :> I'm going to draw him as bipedal, hope you don't mind! Spritzie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
