I'm requesting not a recolor or reskin of an image, but someone with the interest to do a unique image of what they imagine my character to be.  I like the art style of the picture of a fey'ri out of the monster manual in 3.5; its not cartoon-like and passes on the feeling of demonic heiritage.  The image I'm refering to is pictured below:

This is the kind of request that you commission an artist to do in exchange for money. You're much more likely to get help in this thread if you first spend some time finding a base image (or images) that can be tweaked (or combined) to satisfy your needs. If you can't find any such image, ask for help finding one- a request for original artwork is drastically more effort and skill than the good contributors here in this thread have or can offer for free.

EDIT: I am no longer going to edit into posts. I just realized that we advanced a page and want to more or less follow the established expectations of forum'ing. Anyway, here is that drow... finally...

drow with spear Show

sorry this took so long, I forgot I had a deck party to attend >.< took about an hr all in all. I believe the light outline around the spear is part of the shaft, so I didn't take it out but certainly can if you'd like. Very fun to work on ^.^ Not too happy with his abdomen, could not get the colors to go right for the life of me.

 
I also had a little fun with the filters on gimp, and liked these
drow cool stuff Show

the photocopy effect gives an old school feel, altho distinctly different
 
the spear looks out of place here, but I think the effect is cool with the pic 

 

Very cool! I especially like what you did with the left hand there. Those filters are neat- too bad that second one makes the spear look out of place.

I'm not sure, but I think I would prefer you took out the light outline on the shaft, if you don't mind. I probably wouldn't have said anything if you hadn't offered, haha.

@Duskweaver: I'd love to attempt the recolor on the drey defilier, but for some reason that image is causing GIMP or my computer to slow down immensly. I'm not sure why, as the size doesn't seem to be an issue. Anyway if you have another similar image I'd like to try, it seems quite interesting, if not, hopefully someone else isn't having the same issues as me.

Unfortunately, that's the only version of that pic I've got. I've no idea why it would cause problems, and so no idea of what I could possibly do to fix it. If someone else wants to give it a go, that'd be great. Or, if you have any ideas for how I could make it not slow your computer to a crawl (save in a different format, maybe?), let me know and I'll do that and repost it.

I've tried resizing and changing format. I think it's on my end.

Welp had a total party death recently in a 4e game, and decided to try and do a similar character again. Thanks to the fine folks here in the forums I found a neat pic (was actually looking for a book, but oh well.), and thought "That would make a good character!"

If anyone could make the guy aboce have skin colour and hair/beard colour like...

...this guy's, it would be really wonderful!

I made two versions, hopefully one is what you are looking for. Bit of a warning, I think I made him into a frost giant.
