portrait attempt

Hey all!

I have recently started to explore my artisitic side again - but learning to script for months was fun nonetheless

I am partnering with someone to open a very creative photo studio and I wanted to get some folks to stop by for some FREE, yes FREE portrait work to kick off my portfolio. I did my first quick sitting this evening and I wanted to post an image and get some feedback. I have no idea if this is the right forum - it's a little multi-topic'd.

EDIT : I am also hoping to do additional artwork portraits for those interested - I have added a new file here to show you just one example my work

So - have a look, see if you like it - and if you'd like to see something similar done for you - I am also going to do some painting work based on the images i take inworld.

If you think you'd like to become part of my portfolio before i begin to charge for services, I'd be happy to set up a time and do some work with you. You'll get full copy privs to any work i produce for you, and I will reserve the right to use it in my portfolio.

thanks for taking the time !

Trent!

Been awhile.

I'd love to sit for you, let's make a time. I'll IM you in world.

oh my that is absolutely FABULOUS!! hehe, if you need a model for your portfolio, I am all for it!!

Thanks for the comments folks - suggestions also welcome, I can take the criticism All you experts tear me apart! i want to get better!

I did another from the same set and I'll post it with this message:

Very nicely done portraits. I don't think you'll have any trouble getting more vict.. er, 'subjects' for your portfolio. *grin*

Gimme a shout when they are scheduled, so's i can be there to help out, neh?

I will certainly do that - i might even use my scheduler lol

For those of you who didn't know - the portraits are of Changeling Fate, I didn't want to reveal her name until she piped up

Cheers,
Trent

Right. Silly man. I appreciate your etiquette, but it wasn't needed. *smile*

By the way.... who's your new partner?? *sticks out her tongue and raspberries*

Great job Trent!
Plus I love that top by Neph!

Your work looks awesome and I would love to sit for you....just let me know when and where....I promise to be still even....

GEEZ! how many times do i have to tell you! Don't stick out your rasberries! It's not that kind of business!

*grin*

Bwaaahahahaah! You are a hoot, sir.

Hey, do you know the co-ords of our studio? I am pondering changing my sig here in the forum, but can't get into SL at the moment.

Trent Sir!!!! Long time no see.....have an early work of yours hanging in my castle in gerstle....would simply adore sitting for Your portfolio....may i IM You in world to schedule a sitting?

hehe - seems a lot of people getting interested - I will be putting up a shceulder object below the studio shortly - I will post the co-ordinates shortly - you can go there to see the free times i have and click a link to book a session - a small fee ($10?) will be charged to avoid people griefing the machine - You'll get this fee back after the sitting

thanks for all the positive response - no one has anything bad to say ? Just wouldn't be a forum without someone attacking me (i am kidding - leave me be)

Trent.

argh - no i dont - i'll get them - perhaps we need a way for people to get up there when they want to?

open to the public? AHH!

added a painting to the original post - I hope to do some artistic painting style work on the portraits too for those who are interested in going this route. There is a lot more time involved with this process - but it can produce some very interesting and exciting results.

The example here is really classical, but I can achieve much more abstract results for those interested in seeing something a little more 'out-there' like me

thanks again for taking the time to look!

To establish my portfolio I am doing some free work in the next few weeks.

I have put up a booking board in Callisto (246,160) - I'll include a picture of what it looks like in this post. In the interests of being fair - it's first come first serve booking board. Times displayed are all PST (game time)

I really look forward to meeting some of you and doing this work for you. you get to keep all the atwork , and I reserve rights to use it as my portfolio.

thanks!

the board looks like THIS - Can't miss it.

yay, i'll see you tonight at 7:50 hehe

I'd like to pay full market rates for some work. Can you buzzz me in game? One of me and one of Me, Mark and Tedd

P

will do! thanks!

I decided i should get in front of the camera at least once in my life too - so here is a portrait of nonw other than ME! Trent! (oh and the bike is also for sale in my shop in callisto! plug plug plug)

WOW. these are GREAT!!!!!!!!

thanks Neph! Can I talk you into a sitting for my portfolio - 3 days remaining!

I did a sitting with Revidescent Delvecchio last night and wanted to post some of the work - some people had asked me to keep posting these - and I've been enjoying your feedback - so here goes 2 more

That's great! Do you do passport photos too?

(Hehehe! That question always pisses off photographers)

Sure! Price is the same though you might just be better off going to BLACKS.

seems funny someone would want to piss me off after i did some free work for folks, but hey, I hope you liked them anyways Bob. Lemme know if you ever need some work done.

And you didn't piss me off -just confused me a little...

I decided to just add new portraits to the first post - eaiser to find rather than pouring through the thread -

there is a new one in the main post - leilani - did a sitting last night - great AV - worked out nicely - more to come!
