--------------------------------------------

I am seeking an artist (or two!) to commission a drawing of my friend's character Tyr.

The character details are part text description, part image reference.

Simple or no background.
Full-body or waist-up.
Colored.
Base price between USD$10-20.
I can also pay with POINTS!

I am seeking 1-2 artists for this, with a total budget of $30.

The image doesn't have to be super-complex in terms of coloring or anything. Here are examples of what I am looking for:

Tyr is a Sailormoon fan character. He is a regular human who transforms into Tyr Knight, Senshi of Discipline.

If you would be willing to take on this commission, please comment on this journal with samples, prices, and/or a link to your commission info!

Please, only comment if you are willing to do the image and you fall within my budget.


CHARACTER DETAILS

Tyr, in the grand tradition of the famous Viking berserkers, chooses to fight bare­chested.  He’s naked from the waist up, his upper body decorated in whorls of blue woad that cover his chest, arms, shoulders, back, neck, and face.  Of particular note is the woad on his back: a line made of swirls and geometric shapes traces up his spine, with the top/point of the line ending just below the neck. The lines then carry on over the backs of his shoulders in a similarly decorated fashion.  This forms the shape of Tyr’s rune on his back.  Of note is that these woads are not simply body paint or anything of the sort.  They are actual physical tattoos that appear on Tyr’s body when he transforms, and disappear when he resumes his civilian form.  Around Tyr’s throat is a simple leather cord decorated with an amulet made of bone, with a slightly modified version of Tyr’s rune (seen here: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia… ) carved into it.  His forearms are protected from wrist to partway up his arm by a set of boiled leather bracers.  The front of the bracers are inset with a sheet of metal that can be used to help deflect blows from weaponry.  The bracers rest on top of a strip of thin, undyed linen that wraps around Tyr’s palms, leaving the thumb and fingers free, and continues up the arm to just under the elbow.  (Think of how a boxer wraps his or her hands, for example: wagtailfitness.com.au/wp-conte… )  Tyr wears a pair of loose­fitting linen pants, dyed a faded blue, that offer him a full range of motion.  They’re rather “full” but they gather at just below the knee, at which point Tyr’s legs are covered by a strip of vivid red herringbone fabric that coils all the way down, eventually wrapping around the arch of his foot.  (See www.pinterest.com/pin/15593720… and www.miklagard.nvg.org.au/costu… for pants and leg wrapping references!) The top of the pants are covered by a leather and wool pseudo­girdle that sits on his hips, starting just below Tyr’s navel and continuing to just above the groin.  It is fastened with a series of toggles along the front, and decorated with golden embroidery in various geometric shapes and patterns.  The middle part of the girdle is fashion from panels of red dyed wool and leather straps.  A braided leather belt is knotted around it, the buckle and the end of the belt both fashioned from iron.   His shoes are a simple affair, made of a sturdy leather and fitted to his foot, although they also have toggles that fasten along the side to keep them in place.

The most interesting aspect of Tyr’s fuku, however, is his right hand.  From the wristbone (or the wolf joint, as the Norse called it, in honor of Tyr’s sacrifice) up,  his hand is not made of flesh and bone, but rather it appears to be roughly constructed out of a series of overlapping metal plates and hinges.
