"Graphics Journal"

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.

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

5. An old transformer sig I did.

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.

More coming soon!

Render: I think I might use this for one of my banners too XD

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.

I like number 4, maybe because it beat mine in the SOTW poll!

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

I made this more a of a grunge banner than vector, but we've discussed this already ^^; I also have a version of this banner/avy set with a white border, so PM if you'd like that one instead.

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

Wow, your skills have improve alot, Motsuko.

I remember the time you first requested from me, now you're making your own stuff.

You might even be better than me. XD;

Keep up the awesome work. <3
