Zephra's Portrait Booth

[Zephra]

There is a stool, an easle, and paints standing in a roped off part of Zephra's yard. (her one roomed house is behind it) a sign says:

Get Your Portrait Done Here! In 1/2 hour, Zephra can paint a realistic drawring of your face, Frames avalible*

Zephra sits at a chair with a book, waiting for custumers

((you know you want this for your sig!))
((I am on very randomly during the day, I'll stop by looking for custumers from time to time, and try to keep up with it. remember, that a 'realistic' drawring of your character is still a stick-person's face))

* Frame choice of A, B, C ,D, E, or F.

[Fuum Bango]

Fuum wanders by, "One painting please, of me!"

Frame F, black background.
Woop. http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2136990&postcount=366

[Zephra]

"okay, then! have a seat!"
would you like a frame?
and background color?
*Zephra starts to work*

[Fuum Bango]

Fuum twitches in his seat.

[Zephra]

Stay still!
*grumblegrumblegrumble*

20 minutes later, Zephra wipes paint off her nose, and signs the painting with a flurish. "There you go, Fuum! just tell people where you got it! :smallsmile: I'm trying to get my buisiness going...

[Fuum Bango]

Fuum stares at the painting. Then wanders away. "PAINT!"

[Deadly]

Deadly appears and looks at the easel "Oooh, can you paint me? With this muffin?" he says and sits down, holding a muffin in his paw and smiling. He notes the frames and grins "Oh, I like frame B. And could you make the background, uh..." he looks at the muffin, which turns out to be a chocolate chip muffin, and grins "chocolate brown."

((Deadly is the raccoon as seen on my avatar :)))

[Zephra]

((sorry, I just got home. working on it))
"cool! okay, have a seat on the stool. I'd better work fast; the sun's going down.

[Deadly]

Deadly smiles and sits down on the chair, waiting patiently while she paints

[Zephra]

25 minutes later, Zephra signs the painting, and frames it:

linky:http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m264/anna_pictures/deadly.jpg
"oh, and good job staying still!"

[Deadly]

Deadly smiles and looks at the painting "Oh, it's beautiful. And the muffin looks so good! Makes me want to eat it." he grins and eats the real muffin "Thank you." he says and pays her

((Thanks :) And welcome to Town, by the way))

[Zephra]

Zephra is thrilled: "high praise. thanks for your support--it was fun to paint
:smile:"
((wow! you even put in your sig! With a link! Thanks so much!))
[NOTE: I won't be in the town until either saturday, or monday. put in your requests if you want, and I'll get to them. otherwise, I'll re-start the thread when I get back.]

[NecroPaladin]

Clergyman State marches in. He appears to have ran here from the near future.

WHAT? No paintings left to bedeck the halls of K.N.A.V.E.S? Bah! Those filthy braggarts can't have any knowledge of this, they can't know I lost all my art in the bombing that the Raiders put me through...I must have my portrait!

The undead man stands perfectly still before realizing...

There's no one here.

GODS THEMSELVES BE DAMNED!

And so he just sits there, and sits, and sits...he's undead, so he can wait a long time...


The man before you marches by in a very stately, if a bit evil-looking, manner. He wears an officer's cap, spiked as in the military of old. His head is wrapped save a pure gold mask that covers his forehead, cheeks, and nose, a hideous, undead lower jaw, and sunken, empty eyes. He wears a clergyman's collar with military epaulets, fully armored arms, red pantaloons, and iron-tipped military boots. Most noticeable is his coat, a double-breasted affair which stretches down to form a medieval tabard in the front and two coattails in the back. He carries the image of a scale on his chest and his helm.

((Frame C, please))

[Zephra]

Zephra dashes out of her house the next morning, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "Sorry, I--"She stoppes, staring at the austur demener of the undead in front of her.
"Yes... Sure! frame C you say?"
she dashes inside for her paints, and begins.
45 minutes later, she yawns and smiles.

"there you go. have a good day!"

[NecroPaladin]

"Aha! L'Artiste! Thank you thank you thank you, the base shall be in working order soon enough, this time with ART!"

He hugs, and then kisses Zephra on the cheek, which is an extremely unpleasant action coming from State.

He then admires the work once more, wraps it, and runs off.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe comes galumphing through. Ooh! Portraits? I would indeed like mine please. Frame...F....background....gray. He sits down. (More reference pics in second spoiler in sig)

[NecroPaladin]

((Portrait...sigged. Thanks again!))

[Zephra]

Zephra is still looking sort of shocked from the kiss from the undead, but pulls herself together." wow! buisiness has been good!"
She starts to paint.
EDIt: http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m264/anna_pictures/vesperatavo.jpg
there you go, have a good day!
http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m264/anna_pictures/vesperatavo.jpg

[Vespe Ratavo]

Yay! Thanks! Vespe kisses Zephra on the other cheek (i.e. the one that State didn't kiss) and teleports away with his great picture.

((Sigged, thanks! :smallbiggrin:))

[Zephra]

"Wow...Glad you like it." Says Zephra a little awkwardly.
...
she gets out her book, waiting for more custumers

[Raistlin1040]

Ekrath enters and pays.
I'm intrigued. Frame F if you will.

((Ekrath isn't my avatar BTW. He's the red haired elf in my sig with the ponytail.))

He then leaves after waiting.

[Zephra]

Zephra runs out after him. ((sorry, I wasn't on much yesterday))
Wait! I'll paint you!
I was at an interesting part in the book, sorry
she starts to paint.
((happy easter!))
EDIT: [whoops working on it]

[Raistlin1040]

((One quick thing. I think you painted Erika by mistake. Erika is a the female Ekrath. Ekrath is the first guy in the second row, the fifth and sixth in the third row, and the second, fourth, fifth, and sixth in the fourth row. You can pick any of them but I'd most prefer his original or the golden version. Thanks.))

[Castaras]

Castaras walks in, ignoring the screaming continuity locked in the cupboard, now going pale and feverish. She sits down.

Can you paint me?

(( First spoiler, third person in the picture ))

[Zephra]

Sure!
((I always liked that aviatar))
*begins*
Which frame would you like?

[Raistlin1040]

((After Cassie's, could you fix mine?))

[Zephra]

((Yup. actually, I'm finding real pictures of frames to enhance the picture, but yours is coming along :smallsmile:))

EDIT: A man runs up to Zephra's booth, panting and holding a large box. "Here's the frames you ordered," he says. Zephra thanks him, and takes a break to set them up.

all set?

[Raistlin1040]

((Thankies!))

[Castaras]

Castaras smiles.

Thanks!

She gets up and leaves through the fourth wall back to her convoluted plots.

(( Linked and sigged. Thanks Zephra! :smallbiggrin: ))

[Zephra]

((sure! it's a good way to get 'well known' or something...))
*Zephra gets out her book*

[Baeleck]

Shal and Ethrai draw near the place, looking around inquisitively.

[Zephra]

Want a portrait done? you can get your pick of these ((see the first post)) frames, and I"ll do a portrait. ((then you can sig it))

[Baeleck]

The mephits come out of dead time.
"A portrait, eh?"
"Does that mean I have to sit still?"
"Probably. Um... frame H. Landscape."

http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h107/sjunderw/mephit.gif
((^Picture if you need it. Both in the same portrait.))

[zeratul]

Hey zephra can I have a portrait? Frame A please.

[Zephra]

sure! hang around 20 minutes, and I'll start yours. I'm in the middle of someones, right now. or you can stop by later, if you want!
((I'm on till 11, I'll try to get them all done by then))

[zeratul]

Thanks zephra! I'll be on til 11 at least.

[zeratul]

Hey zeph, have you finished the other portrait yet? Just curious

[Zephra]

((sorry for double post, edit button wasn't working fast enough))

[zeratul]

Ok I'll wait and take the one toomorow. Thanks again.

[Baeleck]

The mephits fall out of dead time.
"Ooh! That's brilliant!"
"What a waste of time."
Ethrai just rolls his eyes and then pays for the portrait, before flying off.

[Zephra]

urk. there you go. this one's a little less rushed.

He bobs his way out.

Xerillum walks in. Give me a picture!

"say please! oh, what the heck. you're paying me." she starts to paint.
