Welcome to the Fanon Illustrator Insignia
A Place Where Artists Unite

Shortcut:
AW:FII

Does your fanon feel a little dull with text alone? Wish you had more "life" to your words? Ever wondered what it'd be like to actually see your beloved characters? 

No worries, the Fanon Illustrator Insignia is right here!

The FII is a group sporting skilled illustrators who will create custom, self-made pictures for your fanon upon request. Don't hesitate to ask, because there's no limit to how many you can request! Our work includes screenshot-style images, titlecards, separate character portraits, or a combination. You may scroll down to drop your fanon's name and a link to your story under one of the group member's schedules. Once your request is carried out, we'll notify you shortly and send it over for your free use. We promise your fanon will look awesome with the addition of our artwork - though its success still depends on your writing quality.

The outgoing, crazy, creative, and rookie user who enjoys drawing more than writing. He basically became notorious in his school for his comics, which mainly focuses on genres such as crime and revenge. Quite impressive on photoshop, although much a skillfull artist by hand. Will accept any request from any fanon of any genre. And has a bit of struggle drawing dog-ish animals, but is improving at a fast rate. Appreciates patient clients, for art is something that cannot be rushed. Inactive

A Japanese illustrator who is massively inspired by the art of her homeland, being the main style of her work. The tools of the trade; Wacom Drawing-pad, Manga Studio 5 and imagination. Focusing mainly on figure drawing and elements of design, i.e. front covers. I am able and willing to drawing animals, environments and weapons - I'm open to fight scene also, but please refer on what you want illustrated with in the scene and/or design, other wise I may create something you do not like!

The random, ghostly pointy-hat girl lurking in the fanon portal, whose love for art rivals her obsession with writing...and even the Dai Li. Tools of the trade include any combination of the following: Wacom Bamboo tablet, iOS's Procreate for iPad + Adonit Jot Touch 4 Stylus, Photoshop CS5, Paint Tool SAI, Copic Markers (for traditional)...etc. Focuses on figure drawing but will take on background/scenery requests as well. Contact at your own risk, as ridiculous patience is required for completion time :> Inactive

Policies[]

Illustration Requirements

  • Members of the FII have the right to refuse any art style or type of illustration of their choice. They are also not obligated to accept every request presented to them.
  • Guidelines for illustration requests are also permitted, which may relate to the client's fanon or request procedure.
  • Illustrators are not permitted to have requirements that relate to or benefit their activities outside of the Fanon Illustrator Insignia, which include (but are not limited to): any form of support to a fanon, voting, and interacting with other usergroups.


Resignation
Balancing real life and Avatar Wiki activities can be very hard and challenging. Unfortunately, studies will become to stressful for some of us illustrators. We know how you feel. If other obligations demand your attention, don't hesitate to step down from illustrations if they're a burden. However, you are expected to adhere to the following guidelines if you choose to resign:

  1. All requests in your schedule must be completed. You can stop accepting illustration requests and take as long as you need to finish the ones you already started, but we cannot leave any users who have scheduled their fanon(s) behind.
  2. You are required to leave a message on our talk page with the reason for your departure; doing so will inform the rest of your fellow members as to the circumstances surrounding your resignation.

After that, you're good to go! Page updating will be taken care of accordingly. If you have an emergency that includes or that will result in leaving the FII, exceptions can be made to the above rules.

Approved requests[]

Howdy! It's a great honor for me to be your fanon illustrator. It's absolutely correct to say "Images are nothing without words, but words are nothing without images." in fanon. So now, I, AcerEvan would like to provide a scheduled-requests only for you, exclusively! But I think you should follow my advice so your illustration could be done at the first place without a long-wait.

~ Link your fanon to one of this schedule row, and message me if the date is already up; those dates are the signal for myself to start the illustration session. Then, we will do a meeting.
~ I will ask you some questions needed for the illustrations, but an explanation about your fanon at our first meeting would be great.
~ Sometimes, I could do a "traditional" style, using pencils and hands, but you may give some specifications about the style that I'll use.
~ If it's already finished, I'll give it to you and you can give some input. If everything is done, it is done.

What are you waiting for? I'll give you my best. From yours truly, Acer.

Okay, If you have chosen me to Illustrate for you, please, feel free to leave a request below. Please put in your Username, and the name of your fanon(also, state what kind of illustration it is; a chapter title, a character image, a segment illustration, etc.) I will then reach you as soon as I can. When I've reached you, we'll talk about specifics, like what you want to see, or you know, what's 'the feel' you want for the image, or wether you just want me to surprise you and just stay out of the creating process till it's finished.  

Please do note that these images might not be the excact thing you have in mind, since there are two creative minds involved here. (Although I will be vocal about my suggestions ^^)

Before I upload the image, I'll give you a somewhat 'demo' version, then we'll see how that goes. Also, I might back down if I feel that the illustration is simply too complex for me to create. 

Thank you, for trusting my skill to provide the images for your words. :3

Requests:

  • Midori122407 Avatar: Tales of the World Cover Page and Title and Chapter Cards/characters if needed
  • Midori122407 Tales of a Forgotten Time Cover page And Title and chapter Cards
  • Phoenixbender The Legend of Sasuke Cover page, Chapter Pages if possible (but that would require you to constantly work with me for 36 chapters until my fanon is done and I think that would be too much work for you)
  • Swampbender55 Shadows of Equality Cover page and chapter title cards.
  • ShikonChireru The Legend of Korra-Chitose Gen Crossover Character images, A segment Illustration...
  • NTA65bz Avatar x Guardian Cover Page and (the first) chapter title. That's all and thaks if you do ;).

If you have chosen me as your illustrator for your fanon (YAY), there are several steps needed to be accomplished before we can get this show on the row. If you want the best drawing to the best of my ability, follow these steps and you'll be good to go.

First up, put a link of your fanon and what you would like me to draw (title card, chapter card, character, etc.)
Second I will then post a message onto your wall with guidelines, details, and questions. The more details, the more likely the drawing will coincide with the image in your head. Keep in mind, we are two different human beings with two different imaginations so it may not look exactly how you imagined it.
Third, after giving guidelines on what you would like me to draw and write, I will give you a picture of a sketch. If you like it, I will color it. If you have any objections, tell me and I will change it. Expect many check-ups.
Fourth and most importantly, please do not expect the art to be done quickly. It takes time to think up an idea, sketch it, color it, and fit your exact ideals.
Fifth and optional, but preferred, it would be great if a meeting on IRC could be arranged so we can discuss guidelines and the likes.

Requests:


DaiLaiHeping[]

Thank you for choosing me to be your illustrator, please be aware they're requirements 

before accepting your commission.

Requirements:[]

  1. Inform me, in detail, of what you want in you design/illustration through the messenger, clarify; style, character or character present, posture/positioning of the character(s), shades and colours, ect. A reference (example of objects, clothing, postures) of your request are also needed.
  2. Please give a link to you Fanon page with in the description of your commission, in order to gain a better understanding of the overall tone of your Fanon - to create the best possible cover art for your Fanon.

NOTE: I maybe working on multiple projects and might be unable to accept your commission.

Thank You (^<>^) \\//


Minnichi[]

I will take on any kind of request as long as it includes a character somewhere. I'm honored if my artwork appeals to you for any reason, but please consider the following guidelines carefully. First and foremost, you must understand that fanon illustrations are not to become a dependence. The most beautiful drawing is nothing without the writing quality to back it up. These requirements are to ensure that you, the author, are not requesting my work in hopes that it will improve your fanon's success. Only you can do that. Art at its best can only attract readers to give your story a mere chance; without the necessary effort on your part, that chance'll just vanish like the Dai Li after their banishment, y'know what I mean? Yeah. Don't vanish like the Dai Li. It's tragic.
My requirements:

  • Your fanon must have at least 5 chapters published. I want to you to actually know the story you're requesting for. The only exception is if you can convince me with a detailed plan ahead of time.
  • Know your character! Don't give a description that leaves important details up to me, of all people. This is your creation, not mine. Allowing the artist to experiment with random things like clothing and colors and whatnot is fine, but at the end of the day, only you know what looks right. My job is just to try to match the glorious image in your head. I want you to be able to present me a complete person that you really know.  Basically, I expect to be the one asking more questions than you during planning. 
  • Be aware that I will refuse your request under any conditions if I review your description and decide that your character isn't human. S/he may be suffering from Mary Sue-ism, Plain Jane-itis, etc. etc... But seriously, all of this just sums up to one simple message: If you're a sincere author who loves writing, I'll probably approve. I love art, and I'm just asking you to love your character as much as I'll love drawing him/her. 

This is all for your benefit, and for your fanon. Not mine. But at any rate, you're always free to request elsewhere. I just want to ensure that those receiving my artwork won't forget the qualities that make them authors in the process. Character development? A sufficient amount of chapters? Those should come naturally, if you truly care for your story. Don't slack off just because someone can draw a pretty picture for you! :)

*NOTE: If you're requesting more than one separate character drawing, I'll take care of the one you want the most first and move down the list so that as many requestors can have an illustration as quickly as possible. I'll finish the rest of your images as I 'cycle' back through the list of multi-requesters and reach your name again. (Blue marks the current work in progress.) 

*** To request artwork from me, just email me at minnichi92@gmail.com or leave a message on my wall with the name of your fanon, the nature of your desired drawing, and a list of character details. I'll let you know how it goes from there ;) Once you're approved, I will do whatever it takes to represent your fanon well. Expect lots of sketch-approval meetings.


Kugumi (aka Meg Lindsey)[]

Look guys, I empathize with you: good art is key to any fanon's success. I'm not fond of "restrictions" on my art, which is to say that I'm the artist and I know best. However, I treat your requests with great care and I think highly of my clientele's opinion. If I create something you find utterly heinous (whether it's because it doesn't fit the character, the fanon, or you simply don't like it) just let me know and my redo will follow your original request COMPLETELY. The one thing worse than having a fanon without art, is having a fanon with art you don't like. That said, I think my talent with art speaks for itself. Using photoshop, a wacom tablet, and your instruction, I specialize in anatomy, figure drawing, and composition to create title cards and (sometimes) character images. Please don't ask for animals, because they simply aren't my strong suit. For my art I require 2 things of you:

  • Your name, fanon, and what kind of images you would like me to create for you in the space provided below
  • And a message on my wall specifying what you would like me to do (ie. I need a title card with my main character Za'ara posing with her spear and waterbending at her nemesis Bohanu. She should have brown hair and green eyes... etc etc.) I will message you back a confirmation and clarify any questions I have before I get started :)


Also, please note that every request is subject to my approval. If I am not capable of creating the desired piece, I'd rather not make a fool of myself. I hope that is understandable. Thank you everyone for giving me the opportunity to create something beautiful for you ^^

As of 9/1/2013, I am no longer taking illustration requests. However, I am still willing to complete the requests in my queue at this time. Those who are on the list currently are in no way obligated to stay there and are free to move their request to another artist at their own will if they do not wish to wait on me. I apologize for the inconvienience.

Waiting list is in effect:

  1. Henryjh98Parallel (Character Image)
  2. Jacob13KyleThe Gunfighter (Segment Illustration)
  3. ThedestinedoneSpirits of the Shadow (Main Image)
  4. Jacob13KyleThe Gunfighter (Character Image)
  5. Masri788Anansi (Main Image)
