This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Fanart Requests
As I am on Winter Break, and as I love doing fanart, and as I never really do all that much Utena fanart, I'm going to take requests!
These requests will be for free, but I'm only going to take a few at a time. I'm going to take one full color request and four sketch requests for now.
I will draw whatever you want as long as you follow certain rules.
It must involve SKU.
I will not draw fan characters.
I will not draw hentai/slash. Suggestive is fine if it's a canon couple.
I prefer not to draw full blown comics, but I can handle a speech bubble or two.
If your request is something small or cute, please don't claim the full color slot. The full color slot should be reserved for a dramatic piece that's going to involve time to make.
That's it!
ALL SLOTS FULL! I'll try to finish these in the next couple of weeks. I'll start working on them tomorrow!
Color: Frosty - Utena and Anthy hugging on the rooftop
Sketch 1:Angelicreation - Juri and Shiori as young girls

Sketch 2:Imaginary Bad Bug - Utena and Wakaba first picnic
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/45120768/
Sketch 3:Syna - Miki and Juri playing chess
Sketch 4:Blade - Keiko and Xmas

Re: Fanart Requests
I'd like one of the sketch pieces. How about Juri and Shiori as little girls before all the boy stuff happened?

Re: Fanart Requests
What a cool idea, thanks!
I'd like a scene of Utena & Anthy on the rooftop. That hugging/crying scene we only see from afar.
Is it do able?

I'm just going to keep my big trap shut this time. 
Akio, you have nice turns of phrase, but your points aren't clear and you have no textual support. I can't give this a passing grade.

Re: Fanart Requests
lol @ Gio
Frosty, are you claiming the color slot or a sketch?

Re: Fanart Requests
Ooo! Miki and Juri playing chess, with a typical surrealist SKU-esque background (I'm imagining them suspended in spacetime or something equally bizarre). Modify or discard as whim demands. ^.^

Re: Fanart Requests
okay dokey. only question. Sketch or color? I'm not sure if Frosty claimed the color or not so I can't give an answer until I hear that. But I do have you down for something. If Frosty didn't grab it, I assume you wanted the color slot?

Re: Fanart Requests
Yes! I claim U&A for color slot!!! 
I just didn't know I could. I assumed you as the artist, would want to select which one you wanted to make into color. So, if one of the other ideas is more appealing, more exciting to render, then by all means, choose which will make YOU happy.
I'm just so happy you're seriously drawing SKU. I'd be happy with a line of dancing Chuchus.

Re: Fanart Requests
LOL a line of dancing ChuChu's. That's amazing.
But yeah, I'm having people use their own judgement for the sketches. But maybe next time I'll have people throw me ideas and I'll just pick one!

Thanks! I was envisioning Juri having just done a move, smirking at Miki a little bit in her gently-teasing way, as Miki looked very serious and intent as he stared at the chess piece... complete with a weird, mindbendy space background. Though obviously I'll be really interested in however the artist interprets it.
I was seeing it as a sketch anyways. Yay Utena/Anthy!

I can't wait to see those pics!
I would take requests too, but my schedule is taking over my life as it is, but I really hope I'll have time next year.
Gah, I don't think I'll even make it for the X-mas contest. *sigh* But I shall do my best.

This is really awesome of you! Making the world a happier place with custom fanart! 
As for the Christmas contest, we started it too late, really. I'm inclined to just say take your time, we can celebrate Christmas late this year.

Lovely! Shall def +

The first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
And the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
And sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
Such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix

Re: Fanart Requests
Shiori's smile actually took me the longest to do. It kept coming out way to evil. 
Does anyone know what episode Keiko's rollerblades are in? I can't find an image of them.
