@Norngirl : Lol Laura should Thank you too for pointing it out first with Petal&River. Luushtarp second reminded her and got the thanks instead. -ribbit-
She could also thank you for being kind and point out for her Norn mix.. -ribbit-

@NornBabbles : Art looks nice! Will see my frog soon I guess. -ribbit-

Btwn: I noticed you skipped Norngirls question about draw other of her Norns or only those two -ribbit-

Also I think you might missunderstand her. -ribbit-
She clearly said her own pose suggestion she posted on her long post, not Petal&River poses. -ribbit-
Still..good you mention how you work wirh drawing and poses. Finaly got to see & know you do not trace. -ribbit-

Also...Norngirl mention Petal-River first and even linked on her first post reply of all images of them -ribbit-

You should edit youre post with images and proper clickable links,so people notice it,girl ;) -ribbit-

Im just the all seeing frog and could not help notice. -ribbit-

Fav quote from Trolls movie:"No trolls left behind"
But Norns in this case...in my case? It would be Frogs.
-ribbit-

Anyhow... Its good you let us know how you work.
-ribbit-

Nice to know you will make background;for us all -ribbit-
Saw only background on image you made for Norngirl -ribbit-
Hope you make nice big lilypads & flowers for my frog when you draw it! -ribbit-

I think you will also do the remaining people soon (Linda,Yulukyun,FallowBelinda)

@Laura
Bellona in PJs sounds adorable. X3


Thanks, NornBabbles! Out of all the Norns I've raised over the years, she's definitely one of my most memorable. I can't wait to see her drawn in your cartoon style. [nhearts]

I know I promised a few things within the next day but there will be a delay. My parents showed up at my house with only an hours notice and now suddenly I'm their host for the next few days. e_e
I dont mind, it was just.. so little warning. Haha
They understand my busy schedule, so maybe I'll find some time to throw something in here and there. But for the spare time I am cooking their meals, washing stuff, and just in general spending time with them. My Dad just survived a heart attack, we're kinda taking every moment together as precious.UwU

No worries! Life has a habit of throwing up the unexpected sometimes. This is a lovely thing you're doing for the community and I think everyone will respect the fact that you'll do it at your own pace. I hope you enjoy spending time with your family. :)

I'll try to read up any replies and what's wrong and stuff on my phone when I can, but for now here's an Upload and Run until I find time again.

Linda's Chizuma profile.
To the Mothership!
Another example of a Profile pic taken a life of its own...
You said warp door, but I realized I had no idea what that was or at least I couldn't remember WHICH door was a warp door so could you or someone take a screenshot of one. or better yet a timestamp on a youtube video or something so I can see it in action (I'd prefer to draw it in motion). I think this is a Norn from C3, but I have yet to get C3 working as I haven't had the time to even try what a nice 'someone' suggested might work.

- I decided not to put lines to divide colors, this Norn ended up being a good example of a lot of beautiful detail, but it was a mess when its designs were lined and it looked like an ugly mess. :(
(@Norngirl, the Astro Norn is "Bangles" btw. Something from PMs she'll know what I'm talking about.)

fallowbelinda's Carla-Doe profile and a doodle.
The girl that doesn't know she's beautiful.
I'm not happy with the roughdrafts so far, but here was a pretty doodle I'm thinking of doing more stuff to. It also helped me figure out whether I wanted to do the Coloring Book Landscape or Portrait style. (It will be Portrait style.)

Thank you, I can't help but rush. I'm always so busy. I can't stand being idle. XD

You know you don't realize how old your parents have gotten until you've been away from them a while. It's... a little scary. You have to realize that they aren't going to be around much longer now that you're an adult. As a child it seemed like you had all the time in the world to be with them, and now you wish they could stay longer.
We have a tradition in my family that stems from an old folk song we sing, being a long line of carpenters, every father has their unique Grandfather Clock, each with a unique key to wind it up, and the father is buried with the key upon death. My Father (a grandfather now) is the one to wind his own Grandfather Clock. And when the Grandfather Clock dies, it means the grandfather has died because he's no longer around to wind it up again. I remember my father's Grandfather Clock vividly, and I fear the day its pendulum stops swinging back and forth. And it will never be wound up again, he will be buried with the key. I honestly don't know... how to feel when that happens. I remember he used to smile when I freaked out the clock was getting slower and he'd pull out his key and wind it up again, letting me know there was still 'time.'

Anyways, enough sentimental stuff. If there's anything to get from that it's CHERISH your parents! If they were good of course, I know there's some bad ones out there. XD

@Linda
Thank you, I never played DS so that helps a lot.

@MidoriFrogNorn
I hope to upload the Frog Norn next... I had some fun with it. >w>
I'm not answering some questions as they've pretty much been settled in PMs outside the thread with whom they correspond to, that, or they were already answered earlier in the thread. Like, for instance, no picture is being left behind thus far. There have been no obscene requests as of yet (and I doubt there will be. Not allowed on CC. XD). Though I do have a limit, I haven't hit it yet. I'll let you guys know first. I'm still going back and redrawing the original samples I had because I changed the style to be easier to reproduce over and over again as it was originally spot on zero difference from the C2 Guidebook style but I already went over how that doesn't work out.
I'm still not sure how many pages I want this to be. I'm thinking 50-100.

I wish I could upload and reply at the same time. Argh frustrating. I have all but some of Norngirl's redos DONE. I can only do one or the other. I think I've replied to everything now though. I will upload what I can next time. *triumph*

I kind of want a picture of a City norn, but with a potato instead of a head, to commemorate my latest failures in gengineering. Probably wouldn't fit with the rest of the colouring book, though XD

Ok So here is me,re-posting my Norns with images and links propely.
Norngirl's Request & Own Norns:
************************************************
Requested: PMN (purple Mountain Norns) from creatures 1,
If Possible-Two adult pair (one female,one male) chasing butterflies.
Image reference of PMN:

Also I second the C2 Frog Norn,the breed looks like this:
Link to Frognorns at Nornenmeisters site
&
Frog Norn Wiki Link
NOTE: Frog Norns are a official C2 breed,
Nornenmeister V2 added baby,child stages;
as well recolor female so you can tell them apart + straight theyre
bodies up like normal Norns have .
Was only image I could find,otherwise they actually
do NOT have baby/child lifestage and is more impact.
Can't acces my Creatures 2,otherwise I would proven more images.
Idea suggestion from my side would be it sitting on a Lilypad?
Hope that helps,MidoriFrogNorn ;3

but been a lot of late for uknown reason.. Both are Emerald Norns
with Hebbe/Desert Arms.

Suggestions for Remah & Drino:
*************
Given that Nedrah looks so sad,and he so happy - you said you would draw it pretty much like
the official guide book,right? That would mean you would surely draw Norns like Petal and River,wich happens to be my fav and have also tried many time drawing in that style.

But I have not posted it thought. If you wonder,
River and Petal was the name of series of short comics or images of this cute sibbling C2 Norns - River being the brown brother,Petal being the sister in peach color.
both have fluffy tails like the original C2 Hebbe was supposed to have from the beginning.
So the one you have in your'e black & white image is actually
poor River with a Grendel.
http://creatures.wikia.com/wiki/River_and_Petal
The one you showcased from the official guide book with River being hold by a Grendel,do
have a alternate special version of it in color and is a female Grendel trying to kiss him - it was a Valentine edition,I belive. It is titled River & Petal: When Hairy met Sally.

it's found on the end of the link I showed)
Anyhow , I would like to see something like the Petal and River where it shows
a sad River,and a Happy Petal with a butterfly (River and Petal in the Garden (October 1997)
- only make it reverse with my sibblings: The sister,Nedah looks sad (like the brother River is) ,Drino happy (just like River's sister,Petal) XD

Turns out my parents were here for a family reunion I was unaware of in which I was invited (*cough* forced *cough*) to go. Geez they don't tell me anything until last minute. XD lol I'll be helping them pack up to go back home tomorrow though.

Can't wait to quit my job as well so I can freelance on my own without contract again and draw what I want for once and to legally be able to show ALL my work because then I'll be outside of a contract that keeps my art trapped behind paid membership. Non of my art has been free to view for a long time. I'll be glad when I have more time, and keeping up with personal projects and such like this.

Anyways, more uploads.
Not so innocent fauna
Norngirl's requested "scrapped piece." Not only were they switched, but too much was going on. That... and the drooling plants, vines, and penile stamens of the flowers reminded me too much of the "other" art I do because I've had to draw stuff like that before in raunchy situations and I was like NOPE! Not going in the kids coloring book NOPENOPENOPE!!! lol

fruggs
Technically Norngirl's request, but MidoriFrogNorn didn't give me a pose to work off of so I'm making this both theirs...
There's something unsettling about the Frog Norns, I think that may have seeped through in the drawings.

Brady Bunch
2 of Norngirl's family pics. I was rushing so I'm pretty sure there's plenty of mistakes. Didn't draw Nina and Bub with their kid because it looked like a rehash of Luna and Aritho just with a different child. I will later as there will be plenty of pages between the requested ones but I didn't think of that all the way up until now.
The first one they are pushing their son to the Learning Machine, but I forgot to draw the machine. So it's a "First day of School" thing going on.

Karl in da house!
Ok... every page with the Grendels is my favorite so far. I love drawing the Grendels for some reason they are just so fun with their bully-ness. Karl is no exception, he was really fun they're bodies in general are fun to draw, though I'm sad I couldn't help in my goofiness that his playfulness isn't as sweet as I'd hope.

A Splice Gone Wrong... so very wrong...
I had these Shee roughdrafts drawn, but I didn't know what to put with it and the Potato Headded City Norn fit too perfect. A Splicing gone wrong. Either he's a cruel God, or he accidentally thought the Splicer was a fancy locker or microwave for the potato he was having for lunch.

So you did sell Norn art,too? Since you said you could not show all art without the contract being in youre way? -ribbit-

Also.."other art? Raunchy?? Do you mean you drawed Adult stuff? -ribbit-

Norngirls request of frog?Not true!! -ribbbit-
It is MY request,I poked about it several time first & was mine to begin with! Norngirl ONLY second it! -ribbit-
It's pretty much like Yulukyun requested his C3 Grendel and then suddenly another second it and That person now is the requester,but not the first one who suggested it to begin with! -ribbit-

Pose? It seem you liked to be creative with that on youre own and dont pose suggestions.. -ribbit-

On to the art -ribbit-
Like it....but....
pick nose!?Dork?? -ribbitIs that how you see me? -ribbit-
Thats rude! I take it as you do not like me or my frog friends :/ Remove that and im happy! -ribbit-

OMG you actually did the potato Norn! Bahahahaha

And maybe I'm weird but I like how the frog Norns came out. They don't strike me as creepy at all. (But then again I was raised by a mother who considers snakes and lizards to be 'cute' and frogs to be 'adorable'. I was trained from infancy to find reptilian and amphibian features appealing lol) I also don't think it was personal, MidoriFrogNorn; that is, I very much doubt it was meant as a comment on you as a person. It's in line with the same silly tone all the other drawings have. Norns aren't the most serious or dignified of creatures a lot of the time. They do undignified things. They are honest and unpretentious, moreover. So I just saw it as them being Norns doing silly Norn-like things.

To be perfectly honest, I've been biting my tongue, but at this point, I feel like I need to point out that this person is doing -free- art. This is a person who is a PROFESSIONAL artist who is normally PAID for their work. (And no, I don't think they were saying they've sold Creatures fanart, though the sentence is a little ambiguous.) They don't -owe- you, or me, or any of us anything. It was very kind of them to offer, and it's their right to draw exactly as many of the requests as they want to draw. If they don't do all of them, or don't do all of them precisely as requested, that isn't necessarily (and almost certainly is not) some kind of slight or comment on the person who requested them. Real life comes first. Other things take priority. Sometimes things take more time and energy than you thought when you agreed to do them.

Also, as an artist, I can tell you that even with the best intentions, sometimes a picture just doesn't turn out the way you planned when you started it. And trying to force things too much just ruins it. They may have set out planning to give each person precisely what they asked for, or they may have always intended to sort of integrate everyone's ideas into a unified 'coloring book' - that's kind of the impression I got, anyway. But either way, sometimes the art just has a mind of its own.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is, at this point, the way you are treating someone who is being very kind and generous to us has crossed a line. In a word, to me, you are the one being rude. You're acting like a gift is an insult.

I still don't understand how many people end up getting into that nasty situation, especially on the internet. I object to it heavily, nobody's going to be seeing me attempting that kind of thing. Not with any of my renderings, oh no, no, no. That wouldn't be comfortable at all, I personally wouldn't ever want pieces like that representing my work. If anything, it would be a fall from grace if I ever did.

I can't speak for other artists, but when you're poor and hungry enough, you become willing to draw things you otherwise wouldn't, if you're paid well enough for it.

@Doringo - I agree,It surely dosn't feel like an honour to get any of ones things involved with such.I myself never draw such things,it's just...no not my thing.So your'e not alone there :3

@Lurhstaap - it's true art can become not as wanted, I know myself because I also draw a lot and also a Image can be viewed differently to person to person and thats what Art is all about anyway.
But I think your'e last ending comment on that reply was sort of harsh on the frog (You should just have stayed with the first I think Lol)

MidoriFrogNorn might seen it a bit differ than you,there is people that feel easy offended and can be of many possible reasons.
Also we do not know how old this frog is either ;3

Anyhow thats what I think,I can't speak entirely for MidoriFrog,But
what I seen,this person seem to get upset by some things in the picture. So I let the frog talk whenever it's around.

On another note - I can agree with you that reptiles and amphibians are cute,not creepy at all!! I do respect some people may not like them,but for me - I adore them! I also seconded the frog request from MidorifrogNorn,so thats true - it is not my request to begin with,haha.


We all know the art is free and I haven't seen anyone saying anything different about it or any objections.
It's perfectly normal that people should take theyre real life at first hand,then second everything else!
I can say that I did suggest quite many Norns,but hey - he said he would fill it up,so I thought it's up to him if he want to take some or all.
It's nothing I expect him to do,if he want to do all of them - thats great! But if he only want to do some ,thats also fine!
I plan to draw my Norns anyway for myself - but it's allways neat to see other draw theyre takes of Creatures in general!

So far I only seen everyone else suggest one,except you did ask for a couple,but thats still not so many as mine,so yeah I know I am guilty XD

Im sure more people will drop by of course!
And im not going to be rude and spamm some more Norns/Grendels or Ettins - I posted all of mine,and thats it!


Will be looking forward for more from NornBabbles!

-steps away and hope it does not start a flamewar,I mean hey,where all free to speak our minds and opinions-

-cautiously peeks out from under a rock-

Unfortunately I can't upload anything at the moment and only have one bit of reference for my thought, but based a little on an old breed concept sheet I once drew up and posted, how does the idea of basking goldfish mergrendels sound? If not having a nice rest in the shallows, maybe having a good bit of grendel-ish fun with an occupied rowboat or submarine might sound a little more up your alley. Or just kind of looking all prissy and stuck-up since the concept breeds are sort of fancy for grendels. Or maybe a Banshee and their fancy pet goldfish grendel in a bowl? [nlaugh]

Just throwing that out there, I didn't recall seeing any aquatic creatures being suggested yet. There's not much to go on for what a Banshee is supposed to look like, image wise, but an old piece of text somewhere once mentioned that they resembled Shee that have been spliced with grendels.


From the depths of Deep Lurkspace I emerge... And suddenly can't remember what it is I came up for.

Whoah. It's alright guys. I deal with people of all types. I myself am autistic and can understand that others aren't mentally or emotionally stable. I also deal with trolls and scammers on a weekly basis. You don't walk on eggshells, you just try to be polite to everyone as a general rule. If they don't improve or become toxic, don't waste your time, just ignore/block/report them.

Even with slightly hostile emotions attached MidoriFrogNorn's questions and concerns are still valid where it personally concerns them.
To answer those concerns/questions:
Norngirl gave the "sitting on a lilypad" and reference pictures to the Frog Norns.
MidoriFrogNorn simply requested the breed with neither scene nor reference pictures (asking for it to be in a certain style is not a pose request). With little time to spare for anything, I of course, followed Norngirl's request because everything I needed was right there. The upmost important courtesy to any request/commission is to provide everything the artist will need. If MidoriFrogNorn had requested a specific frog norn they owned it would be different. If I have time I will look up the non referenced pictures I need, but for most of day that is a rare slim oppurtunity.

One should not take my personal dislike for a breed to be an offense to yourself. I think most of C2 breeds are hideous, the Frog Norn especially (though I do think real life frogs and reptiles are adorable). That is my opinions of the "looks" of a breed, not an actual person. If you take that personally then you need to detach yourself from it as that is a personal flaw/problem that you need to deal with in self introspection.

And yes, the frog shenanigans are just more of my silliness on paper. However, as you request, I will remove the tongue in the nose (unless Norngirl opposes, it is technically hers). All anyone need do is ask nicely. I 'play' on paper, if you don't like it (or want something more), just tell me what to fix and I'll do it. I don't mind. This is the time to call out mistakes in the drawings. It's what I'm posting them for. :)

I'm going to own and cash in on that lustful skill it possesses, not fight it and starve myself and the furry babies (pets) I'm sworn to take care of and give the most comfortable, happiest life I can manage. When you have a talent don't shun it, run with it.

---OMG those Grendal goldies are so friggen adorable! I have got to add these in. Fish are my soft spot. AND it's a Grendel YAAAAAAASSSSS OwO

What's wrong with the C2 norns? I always thought they were better looking than the C3 norns.

Without the legs and swimming, please.

There are quite a few interesting-looking crossbreeds in this old thread if any of them strike your fancy.

I'm sorry if I snapped unfairly. It just reminded me a little too much of an attitude I used to run across all the time - namely, that artists owe people free art and yet aren't owed any respect or common courtesy. I've also just been dealing with an uncommonly large number of supremely unpleasant people in general lately. So that may have contributed to a tendency to interpret words more negatively.

As to aquatic things, technically my dragons are amphibian, but they don't particularly look the part, do they? :p

@NornBabbles: Wait..what now? XD-suddenly adopted a Frog Norn it seem- Hey thats not bad, I like Frogs,but No,no it's not my request,it is MidoriFrogNorns',I only did second that I wanted to see it too!
It is true I did give a suggestion for pose and setting,along with ref images,but this was my way of helping out MidoriFrog,since it seem this person is new around here and may not know how to post links/images. :)
But just incase you still think I have the right of saying anything about the changes to that Frog,yeah change away XD

@Geat_Masta: I am curious as of why too,but I suppose it is NornBabbles personal preference in Norn looks.

I don't know why, but the Norns in C2 don't look like Norns to me and never did. I had a hard time accepting them as the same species as the C1 Norns. And bizarrely, even though they look VERY different, I didn't have that reaction with the C3DS Norns.

... Now that I realize that, thinking about it consciously, that really doesn't make any sense at all. Yet it's true. What the heck. o.O

My distaste is for their strange pixelated look. Or maybe I'm biased due to bad experience with raising Norns in C2 (a few infuriating memories come to mind). Haha

--Will make Froggy Norn Midori' s.

--Going back to out of state medical treatment. Trying to sneak some of these last requests in by Sunday, but no promises just came on for the announcement.
Even with computer this time my only internet is phone on my out-of-state experience. So you can request, just no pics until I'm back home. I'll be in a chair getting treatment pumped into me for 6 HOURS so I'd be grateful for things to draw. XD

Sorry, you'll see me double post a lot. Shows I'm on my phone. The "post" button disappears if text too long.

Hey Malkin, can you tell me what it's back end is? I think I'm seeing Gargoyle torso, with a... i dont know what the butt is. I don't know much about breeds or the mods or anything so I don't really have reference to understand what I see.

The butt is aquanorn, which is why he asked for the no legs - aquanorns lose their legs in adolescence.

Also, omg, I can't believe you actually did the potato head xD You're so amazing! Love it

EDIT: Specifically, it's gargoyle head and arms (gargoyle wings are part of the arm sprites, not the body as is usually the case for winged breeds) and aquanorn body/legs/tail

Yes, the tail is aquanorn. Maybe it might be possible to combine with the goldfish Grendel request?

Thank you for considering my request - I just like the idea of a swimming, flying, mergoyle norn. :)

FWIW the wings for Gargoyle are on the arms because the way they were drawn, if placed on the body, they cover the arms when the Norn faces forward.

Thank you for answering. I'm still not back, still not well, but I'm getting there. Had post-op infections holding me back. In the meantime, when I can draw, I'm working to improve this project bc I just feel like they aren't expressive enough (My most common self criticism). Plus, theres like, 50 pages to make in total. Yeesh why did I do that to myself? But most of all... Just trying to get better so I can go home. (About 3-4 weeks, doctor said. Depends on next checkup)
Anyways, will hope to post some close to final renders when I'm back home. (And everything else I owe. geebus I'm a promise-breaking castastrophe, I am so sorry)

warning. long post ahead---

Lab Post

Dynamics and Setting


You've probably never seen these so I'll explain it the first time around:
A Lab Post is a pause in the thread to digest progress. Basically it's where an artist puts everything owed up to this point. It can be updated and reviewed at any time. I'm very busy (Back to zero down-time) so this allows me to upload and run without worrying about responses or spamming a forum with updates simply because I uploaded another picture.

- Will not take requests until further notice.
- You will only be notified (privately) of your requests uploaded when ALL of your requests are present on the Lab Post. I will process your input (privately) then.
- You are only seeing what was requested this Lab Post. Anything else is a surprise for the rest of the 50 pages.
- This Lab Post's theme is Dynamic and Setting: What you saw before were brainstorms/ideas. Here they are revamped into a near final rendition. Which means do you like the angle of the picture? Is it expressive enough? Is it's setting correct (i.e. you requested a modded C2 Norn, but I, being the non-mod savvy person I am, put them in a C3 setting). These renditions are how they'll appear in the book, if something is off, now is definitely the time to tell me.
-You'll notice the word "Cite" after each batch. We're still figuring out how to cite the creatures and all that made them. I'll ask you specific questions when I notify you that your batch of requests were uploaded.

[Personal Message]
To knock off some wait time I'm going to go ahead and put all the time I've allotted for this particular project into finishing the revamping/cleaning of your requests for you to at least have something to 'see' out of the 50 pages. Will upload as I clean them up (original work is always too sketchy).
If you see this post before I've linked any pictures it's bc I quite literally took up my allotted time for this project to create this post. So come back tomorrow! XD lol
Where I am right now:
Will delete this part later--
Been back 3 days and haven't been idle since. I'm recovering. Not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. I took a part-time job to pay bills and provide for my family, it's far less pay, but I really don't care because Art wise... just doing what I want and feel and my art has improved in quality because of it and this is the reason for a revamp after the last revamp (which you didn't see, I did both revamps during my time away and still have some to go on the second round).
I needed this surgery, I needed to quit my last job, I needed this time away from everything to find myself in my art again unglazed over by what others want me to draw-like instead. I might still always be too busy (in my nature to be I guess), but this time around I'm much happier and there's just so much I want to do, but can't work fast enough. And it's all going to be public access this time around.
Forgive me if what I do takes time beside all else that I do, now that there's mental strength and emotional vitality, every piece gets my love. Whether it is this project, or my list of others I'm working on in lew beside it. Though the main reason is that my software programs don't work well in the preliminary stages of art (old and very buggy), so unless I'm painting, I have to trace my work to clean it. Drawing something and then quite literally drawing it again, is what takes so long. Even the art I owe outside this project (which I also redrew). Please be patient.
(So I redrew a redraw, and now I have to trace over what I redrew... So I'm redrawing a redraw of a redraw. >_< HOI!)
