A Graphic's Showcase by Motsuko Live
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Introduction
Hello, everyone. For those of you who don't know me, my name is Motsuko Live. I've only been here for a short while, but I plan on getting pretty comfortable here in the Graphics and Photography section of PC. Being an up and coming graphic artist, I thought it would be only right that I create my own showcase/request shop. So, here it is; Motsuko's Live's Graphic Journal. I'm going to try to post my graphics from oldest to most recent, so I can keep you up to date on my "improvements".



Requests
This is more for me to gain experience in graphic design than anything else.

Rules:
Yes, you knew it was coming. Now read & follow, or die.


1. I can only take up to three requests at a time. See the waiting list for open spaces, and please request only when one or more spaces are empty. If you request after the three spots have been filled, I will ignore your request.
2. Credit must be given to me somewhere in your sig.
3. Banners can take anywhere from 1 to 7 days for me to complete. Be patient. If I will take any longer than a week, I'll notify you via PM.
4. Do not edit the banners I make in any way, shape or form.
5. You must use the form below to make a request. If you fail to do so, your request will be ignored.
6. If you'd like to claim a banner, please do so in this thread. Do not PM me, and don't even bother trying to claim a request I've done for somebody else.
7. NO POKEMON RENDERS! Sorry for any inconveniences.
8. I reserve the right to refuse a request for any reason I see fit.


Form:

Style: (If you want me to use a style I've used in one of my previous banners, indicate it's number here)
Size: Width x Height (in pixels)
Render: Post a link to the render you'd like me to use. (Only renders, please. No stocks)
Text: Please specify what you want your banner to say.
Set: Banner and avatar set, banner only, or avatar only.
Anything Else? Anything else I should know? Tell me here.


Waiting List:

1. Trainer Kat
2. Heatran
3. Empty

Requests Completed: 3

Ok, now on to the graphics;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. This was one of my first graphics ever. Looking back, it seems very plain, but I still somewhat like it. The text was quoted from the song Mama by My Chemical Romance.

2. I think this was my first time attempting a vector style banner. At the time I thought it turned out really well, but now, not so much.

3. This was made for SOTW No. 5. Didn't win, unfortunatley.
http://www.snapdrive.net/files/539368/GuitarSig.png

4. This was my winning entry for SOTW number 6. I really like this one.

6. I was just fooling around on Photoshop, but I thought this turned out pretty well.

7. This was made for Loki's Signature Making Class; Assignment A1. Still haven't gotten my grade on it yet xD

8. Just made this a little while ago. Nothing special about it.

I love your stuff! If I didn't make my own I would make a request.

Unforgettable May 4th, 2008 7:30 PM

You are taking requests!?!?!
Oh, I will be back soon for a theme friend of mine.
Your work is amazing.

Twinx May 4th, 2008 10:24 PM

My bro decided to open a shop/showcase? ;D

You know I love your work!
My favorites would be
3: It's got some kind of mystery into it..
4: The colors are to die for xD
7: I'm speachless :3
8: I like this for some reason.. hehe

Anyway, good luck with the shop, Graphics Bro!

Thanks Motsuko, I love it!I'll be sure to show it off in lots of threads. *goes off to OT section*

Sawyer May 5th, 2008 5:33 PM

1. I like the simplicity in it, I don't have any complaints about it though I agree that it seems very plain.
2. This isn't really vector because you did not really vector the flourishes yourself with the pen tool...
3. I really like this, but the style is starting to become a bit too frequent in your work.
4. I feel like the stock did most of the work here... it just seemed like you added filters to an image. Looks nice, though.
5. I absolutely love this except for the ripple on the left side of the tag. Get rid of that and it's easily your best.
6. I like it, sharpen it and add a bit of contrast.
7. I like the concept and I especially like how you executed the rainbow arrows. Nice job.
8. Loose the border and you're good to go.

Flareon's Flame May 6th, 2008 11:34 AM

Wow, you got tremendous skills! The 2nd one you posted got a unique style to it. Good luck on your gallery! :)

Motsuko Live May 6th, 2008 11:39 AM

Did you mean "spirit" or actually "spirt"?? And did you want the "." (period) at the end?

Sorry, Sandslash 10. I forgot to add the 7th rule when I made this showcase. I won't do anything with Pokemon renders. Sorry. But I left your name on the list, so feel free to choose a different render.

Thank you;
Motsuko Live
