@ Ness-
Yeah, it would be really fun, which is why I initially wanted to do it. That and getting to know what people look like. Theres a magic to drawing friends and associates, even yourself.
As for seeing me, that will have to wait. But I'll draw myself. So thats sort of like seeing me.
😛
@ Ayla ny-
Thanks for the reference pictures. Do you have any more? Also, supposing I ever did draw such a picture, would there be any preferance to where you're being tickled and by whom? More reference pictures may be required in the future, as well.
@ everyone in general (hopefully I'll only have to explain this a few mores times once I've actually established these types of requests)-
In an effort to draw people, particulary real people, the best way I can its important that you know for future reference (assuming you also would post your pictures for me or others) that the clearer and closer the photo is, the better.
I love details, and when its possible to go that extra mile to bring them out its worth it, but I can only do that with good, quality pictures. Close ups of your face are particularly ideal, as are pictures of your feet (supposing its a barefoot or foot tickling picture, or stomach and naval, supposing its a tummy tickle).
Also, for the sake of proportions, its even more ideal to have full body pictures in addition to the facial and feet pictures. These are just as necessary, as I want to draw folks as anatomically correct as possible, lest it not look real or like them.
I realize this is asking alot, but its just part of my policy, as it makes my job easier and so I don't have to assume what you look like on the parts I cannot see. Anyone that has ever come to me wanting me to draw them has been put through a similiar process.
I understand the apprehension that can come along with providing personal pictures to a complete stranger and in allowing them to also request pictures of you. Therefore, I hope it makes you feel more comfortable to know that I respect your privacy. And because I do its also part of my policy that I don't share the actual photos with a third party or in public for ANY reason unless otherwise agreed upon between you and myself. Its also fine to e-mail me the pictures directly, if you're too embarassed to share them publically.

The style in which I will draw people is that of manga/japanimation. I know what you may be thinking, "how is that realistic?" Well, given my style and the consideration of your actual appearance, I will attempt to mend the two together to provide both a realistic look, an one that may be slightly exagerated just for fun (its also ok to request me to "nip and "tuck" parts of you that you don't want me to draw as realistically as they are
😉 )
I may do realistic portraits later one, but for now it is in this particular style and I will take artistic liberties when drawing unless otherwise requested not to.
Finally, I cannot promise anyone anything or that I will draw you, even after you send me pictures of yourself. I'd like to be able to draw everyone, but we all know that wouldn't be possible for anyone. This is not a first come first serve basis, though it is case by case.
For the momment the only types of tickling pictures I am currently ready and willing to draw are:
F/F
M/F
*/F
(* is of course tickling by a non traditional method, such as a machine, a monster, alien, etc.)
As this thread and my own involvement in it was unexpected, I may have to elaborate further and make additions and edit my requirements.
----------
NON- TICKLING pictures are of course acceptable as well, so don't forget that. Sometimes a portrait or a certain pose or expression does more than a tickling picture does.
🙂
Whether its tickling or non-tickling, please request only one of them at a time.
Thats all for now I guess. If you've read all of this, good for you.
😛
EDIT: I will not be taking any of these types of requests until I am ready however. So if you send me e-mails and you don't get a response for a long time or one at all, its because I'm either busy with something else or for some reason or another I cannot/will not draw you.
