Commissions   

This section is dedicated to all the pieces that (mainly Kamiki and Arania) have commissioned other talented artists of our Victorian Legends characters ^^. 

Some images may contain artistic nudity, those that do have a large BLUE or  PURPLE Border.

All of the characters depicted are copyright Arania, Kamiki, and Tavis, respectfully,  however all credit for the artwork is cited per piece.

	Absolutely adorable commission of chibi Sabin from Benedite of Yum Yum Studios
	Another, more serious and sweet image of Sabin and Samantha, also by Benedite of Yum Yum Studios
	A commission by Hannibal King, of Sabin and Samantha - I really like how Samantha turned out, although Sabin looks a bit too angular.
	Brian leBlanc, of White Wolf and other RPG book fame, is an amazing artist - and we've been lucky enough to commission several drawings from him.  I love this piece, of Sabin regarding himself in the mirror, reflecting back the Anju ^^.
	This is a color piece collaboration commission by Brian leBlanc with Richie
	Another commission piece by Brian leBlanc, of Sabin's proposal to Samantha.
	A beautiful nude Samantha with the Anju looming behind her by Brian leBlanc - based off a sketch that Sabin did in the RP of Samantha, and his addition of the anju.
	Back when I was actively collecting anime cels, and before I got a lot of the commission artwork, Kamki and I (Arania) commissioned a couple of fancels of the characters - these are painted onto acetate.  This one is of Sabin by Coby of Hyperenity Studios
	This is the one Kamiki commissioned of Sabin and Samantha with Simon, also by Coby of Hyperenity Studios.
	This neat and creepy fancel is of Sabin, with his darker self looming behind him, is by Amy of Moonshine Cels
	A beautiful commission of Sabin and Samantha dancing in a courtyard in the moonlight by Apsylus.  Rich detailing!  Especially on Samantha's dress!
	Kamiki and I each commissioned Lauren Liebowitz, a really nice artist whom we met at A-kon, a year or so ago - this is the one that I (Arania) had her do.
	And this is the commission that Kamiki had Lauren draw - inspired by another of her sweet drawings.
	Sabin holding a nude Samantha - commission by Alex Cidman for Kamiki's birthday.  The black and white original (with more detail IMO )  is here.
	Samantha with Sabin's Tophat by Toren - an adorable picture of Samantha ^_^
	Sabin in a Tophat commissioned by Toren and companion to the piece above ^_^ - really cute job and great clothing!! :D
	A commission of Sabin by Yapi - very cute, and a wonderful artist to work with!  Thank you, Yapi!
	Sabin and Samantha by Forky - Sabin's hair looks gray here because the artist accidentally drew him with black hair originally and it had to be corrected ^^;
	Susan Meyer is another really fantastic artist whom I met at A-kon.  This is a really neat rendition of Sabin, to match with the below picture of Samantha.  Unfortunately, she didn't have time to do two color pieces at the convention, but I fully intend to bring this back to her next year (as well as commission her again before then :)
	Here is the complementary and colored piece to the Sabin drawing above by Susan Meyer, of Samantha with her familiar Simon.
	Sabin/the Anju in playing-card format by Susan Meyer - a really AWESOME piece!!!
	A simply STUNNING commission from GlassShard of Sabin and Samantha from back when Sabin was still in the very unstable period of his possession - in this piece, Sabin has just snapped back into control after having done something very... violent, a crazed look still in his eyes, and Samantha approaching hesitantly and frightfully, but still concerned.  This piece was very long in the waiting, but WELL worth it, in my opinion!  Glass is an incredibly talented artist.
	An AMAZING Painter commission of Samantha from Blackeri. Its hard to believe its not a photo-manip.  The dress is to die for!
	And it's compliment, Sabin, also by the amazing  Blackeri. I love the look and feel of the piece - the shadowy hands grabbing for him are amazing!
	A commission from Ms, Shatia of Sabin in the shadows, with the shadowy puppet-strings dropping from his fingers :3
	A commission by Ivan Flores of Sabin in True Form - met up with him at Aggiecon 2004 - he's a local manga-style artist with some great pencilwork ^_^.
	The first of several AWESOME commissions that I got while at A-kon ^__^.  Alan Gutierrez, known for his anime realism style and the Guest of Honor at Akon did a marker piece of Sabin for me ^___^.
	Amanda Cohen - an awesome artist and with some really smoothe ink works did this wonderful Sabin - I love the style and the feeling of this piece - and the simple border really looks awesome ^^
	Bink did this very professional manga looking Sabin ink ^^- This is just the middle crop of the full piece - which did not fit in my scanner at all!
	I feel horrible, but I only know this artist by his initials, CD - he had a really clean pencil style - and I love the added touch of bloody handprints to Sabin's scarf in this one ^^.
	Erica Reis - a phenomenal artist and who has a manga contract through an American publisher that will be coming to fruit very shortly (and also had the table next to us at the con) did this awesome Sabin/Anju piece :::D
	Johno!! I've been trying to get art from him since High School and now at Akon I was finally able to nail him down and bribe him to do a Sabin piece - And I really love how it turned out ^^.  John Kantz is now the illustrator of a 4-part comic series called "Legends From Darkwood" published by Antarctic Press.  (Last of the A-kon Commissions :3 ).
	Been a while since I've picked up a commission of Sabin off Gaia, but Beast of Oblivion did an absolutely FANTASTIC job on this pencil piece I commissioned as a compliment to the earlier mirror pencil piece by Brian LeBlanc ^___^
	From Bettina of Dreamworld Studios - a dual portrait of Sabin and Ambrose - both looking quite sexy and dynamic!  I love the detail that she integrated into this piece and her signature swirlies ^_^
	Thanks to Mekania from Gaia, She pointed me at Malicekisho on Deviantart who did this fantastic daguerreotype-like piece of Sabin ^__^
	I commissioned Anamya to do this awesome CG realism of Sabin!!! Closeup shot of JUST Sabin is here:
	A stylesheet I commissioned Sajhiri (from Gaia, but with real $) of Sabin - showing off all the important things that ideally I could show to another artist, say at a convention, for more commission ^__^.
	And the first commission made from above stylesheet at Aggiecon - by Chris Griffin :3
	A-kon came around again!  And with it a LOVELY batch of new artwork ^___^.  Nana7 is one of those artists who is FAR too talented for her young age of 14 ;_; - but she did a fantastic marker piece of Sabin~!
	And because she didn't like how it was turning out (I think his top hat was winding up to be too large) she also did a sketch of Sabin for me :)
	Ninja Monkey studios did a very lovely and characteristic ink piece of Sabin :)
	Sakai Hamachi, a Japanese artist (I believe in association with White Lightning studios) was a very nice man, and spoke very little English.  However, I spoke enough Japanese to speak with him for about 20 minutes and explain to him that I wanted a commission of Sabin, and got this fantastic piece from him!!!  So professional, and so beautiful!
	Scrambled Eggs also did a very smexy Sabin - decked out in jewelry ^_~
	Shiawase has a beautiful colored pencil style - and I absolutely LOVE how she does eyes - and did this beautiful Sabin~!
	And last but not least of my A-kon haul, Tessa Stone did a spifftacular Sabin ink piece - Her stylization works really well with capturing a character!  And I love the shadowy effects ^_^
	Ana-Hi's very vampy, but lovely Sabin Duvert :3
	Artoki's long awated and AMAZING Christmas piece of Sabin and Samantha ^_____^
	Peachysticks' amazing CG portrait of Sabin done in an oil-painting style <3
	A-kon 2006 Was an awesome year, particularly for art commissions ^_^. This is AW's  Sabin, Dr. Moreau version - a gift from Hige :)
	Gary Bedell did a fabulous sketched Sabin with the anju - very characteristic - and I'm tempted to color this some time <3
	Kung Foo was doing some amazing watercolor pieces - this one turned out Great!!
	I got a face-shot of Sabin from Shiawase last year, and came back for a fullbody version this year <3
	Tashiya-Sama, Kung-Foo's friend, was doing markerpieces and did a very cool true-form Sabin ^_^
	GunnerRomantic is one of my favorite artists on all of Deviantart - I was thrilled to be able to commission him to do Sabin (and Ambrose - on his page).
	ShiroTsuki was an artist at A-kon 2007 and at least that year (where I wasn't spending much money) was the only artist I commissioned to get Sabin Art from
	iDNAR is a fantastic anime-realism artist on Deviantart - and this was a commission he did of Sabin that turned out very sexy :3
	y2jenn from Deviantart's quick Sabin bust sketch - but still lovely ^.^
	Sabin, just opening his extra set of eyes by the talented Tolueno
	Ivan Flores "Transfuse" does AMAZING women, and I love his work and am fortunate enough to attend most of the conventions he does, and have been wanting to commission him.  So, on a whim this last Aggiecon, I commissioned him to draw my three main male characters as females.

More to come! (Hopefully ^^ )
