The odd-job Corner shops. (Punk, Lineart and Pet donations)

[Myra Midnight]

Version 2.
still making images, so it might be a bit slow. I like this idea, and I do hope you like it too,
but I wonder if I should have made it into 3 threads (like pretty fancy 'help' threads.
Im just thinking about making these donation threads more... flash to look at.
Please share your opinion within the thread, I do hope Im not becoming obnoxious to ya mods by now x.X
And I would love some detail help from some good RPers wink

The business here can be both RolePlayed or OOC orders.
And you may take part in the work, if you wish



You come upon three neat little shops along a decently crowded street. A adoption home, tailor and a animal shelter. From the adoption home you can hear children at play and running along small halls. From the tailor you hear nothing, for he does not like loud noises (trying his best to ignore his neighboring noisemakers), and the animal shelter looks almost magical old home, along with superstiseous artifacts and charms. The owners do have their own stories, and make their homes in the upper levels of the stores.

You can also put things up for donation here if you wish

Rules:
1. This is a RPing shop, so if you wish to do business without the play:
[OOC:] tag it like this (out of character) or post a telegram (or both)
2. You may take control of the NPC characters of the shop if you must/want,
but only if you are expert RolePlayer. Otherwise I will play them

Miss Poppins Children's Home

Owner: Miss Poppins

„Welcome, welcome. You want a cup of tea?“
Miss Poppins is a Mench in her older years, and does not judge people by their race. Even if her late husband died in a dreadful accident concerning a argument between races. She always told him not to take it so personally. But she does not linger on past things, has enough to do with feeding, clothing (which her neighbor and good friend, tends to help out with) and caring for the orphans that she houses.

Adopt a punk

He/She may be just lineart, colored, or even tagged, but they are all just as eager to be yours.
To optain one, all you must do is RP within the shop and atleast show the slightest interest.
Another way to optain one is to complete its tag in a impressive manner, give it a character/personality that gives it a life of its own.
I will tag it for you.

Adopt a Cosplay

The Cosplays here are mostly on request, and only one week, or every month at most, depending on free time. The idea behind this is that I would love to draw certain cosplays, to do them 'justice' in some sense. It does not mean that I wish to keep them, thats why they are here, on the Adopt list.

If you love the character deeply, and even were to RP it, then its more likely that you get your dream cosplay punk if he/she were to be adopted. I like to give them the best of homes. Not just part of a collection. But some are just for show, I guess. As long as you give it some love, you'll possibly get it.

I would rather wish to be noted what cosplay is currently most desired, I might do it for you, or just add it to my list. But if a cosplay on the following list is already completed, please note me.
The ones on the list are either my personally picked, or picked by others. If you are talented in the punk makings, then you may request to adopt the 'project' of making it, but only if you are to donate it.

Since cosplay limit is only 3 per person, then its a shame if one cant draw the cosplays they want, even if they cant keep them. So, donate your love and talent to those who need it the most.

Last shotty:
27.july

List of cosplays I would love to do:
The Endless (Dream, Desire, Destiny, Destruction, Delirium)
The Vampire Chronicles: Claudia

Professional/Blackheart's Tailoring

Owner: Rufus Blackheart (Partly a NPC, so you may play him partly, click the image for info)

„Please stand upon the box, so I may take your measures“
Rufus is a very easly annoyed Koshka, but he keeps a lid on it, only making him a rather grumpy fella to deal with. But he‘s a professional, and will take on work without letting his personal oppinion interfear with his job.
Rumors almong the kids is that he curses curious critters with bad luck.

List of current commissions/work:
Susan (give her a proper name?)
"Belle" Marie (Susan's daughter)
Miss Potter

The Tailoring business

As a tailor, he makes both suits and dresses for both the guys and the ladies. He will take both telegram orders (for the shy) and take your measures on the spot if you happen to come by. Give him an idea or sketch, and he‘ll try to bring it to reality, as well as he can master.

Tailors play a big part in this era, seeing that clothes are not mass produced, but hand made and detailed. Each dress has its unique touch.

I can do both the clothings only or complete lineart (if provided enough detail).


To send a telegram, please fill out the following:

[color=blue][b]Telegram:[/b][/color]
[b]Comissioned by: [/b] (Username/Alias)
[b]Race & gender:[/b] Mench, Koshka or Baylk
[b]Idea sketched on paper:[/b] [img](your link here)[/img]
[b]Content:[/b] clothes only or complete lineart?
[b]Other details:[/b] (anything special? Slight pose changes?)

Applications:
You can partake in the shop, and its not binding.
You can take the temporary position of apprentice.
Or if you are of more talented lines, then you might be a co-worker, as Rufus sometimes allows passing tailors to make use of his shop, if they keep to themselves, that is, and bring their own supplies.

But if you're a tailor looking for a job, then check out the requests



The image on the side shows the difference of the lineart style you get here (Original by Teh Angel Luna)
I do 'shaded lines' as I call it, doing them thicker where shadows would be.

The Clothing Racks


((Even if its free for use, do not just take it, I would wish that you will atleast show the proper interduction, as in entering the store, for both your and Rufus‘ pleasure of business.))

Some customers can be picky, and know what they want. And they did not want what he made. Such dresses and suits are left for the less picky to pick at. You can come by and pick up these rejected orders.

Susan's Animal Shelter

Owner: Susan & daughter (Marie)

„Wha.. what do you want?“
Susan is a shy and superstitious Koshka, and has been running a animal shelter for the past few years, as a part of her quest to free all felines from racist Mench, but the cats she shelters are often in good health and still frisky. Her opinion upon the Mench is a result of a unpleasant encounter with one, which lead to her daughter‘s birth.

'Belle' Marie (on the left) enjoys dressing up the animals of the shelter, often resulting in pretty bows and fluffy groomed fur. All done in good intention of making them more pleasing to the passerby that they might just be adopted.

Adopt a Pet

Sometimes a few pets are dropped off to be adopted, but we do hope that more are adopted than dropped off.
You can not just take the pets here, you must come get them!

Name: N/A (Chesnut?)
