The Workshop

Requester: VannAccessible
For: Relay Race (Other Meta)
Art Direction:
A Gholdengo, in a runner’s outfit, in mid-sprint, is passing a red baton (with +2 Sp. Attack written on it in small black font) to an enthusiastic Dragonite in matching runner’s waiting with an outstretched hand.

Behind them and above, a banner reads “Relay Race”.

Just thought I’d update this, it may have gotten lost. No hard deadline, but preferably before the end of the month. Thank you!
Unfortunately I can't make this, sorry for not confirming sooner.
Feel free to take this, anyone else
 
No worries, Rex The Eater Of Worlds, it happens. I’ll update the deadline to just ASAP, if anyone would like to jump on it. Voting for Other Meta of the Month is currently under way, so we may have an active ladder beginning April 1st.

Requester: Slowpoke Fan
For: SS OU Demo Teams (essentially samples)
Projected Deadline: None, take your time!
Art Direction: I would like to request for artwork involving Garchomp and Landorus-Therian. I don't have particular requirements for their poses/the background/etc outside of wanting the two to be drawn as Moemon, with reference pieces shown below (I'm aware that the Landorus piece is its Incarnate forme, it's just provided to give artists a general idea).
Thread: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ss-ou-demo-teams.3734229/
I will try it, but I am slow af.
 
Requester: Chessking345
For: Formemons (OM)
Art Direction: Up to artist. Since the meta is about using alternate formes directly some generally relevant and unlikely to be banned Pokemon include: Megas (eg Diancie, Salamence, Mewtwo Y, Altaria, Blaziken), Greninja-Ash, Necrozma-Ultra. Primals are workable too (though a bit more at risk of being banned) if artist would prefer working with them. "Formemons" should be displayed.
No hard deadline, but would prefer before end of the month. Thanks!

Requester: Hiro' on behalf of BW moderation
Tournament name: BW World Cup
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): April 21st
Art Direction: The tour follows the same vein as official WCoP as well as other world cups like RBYWC. Our team as a whole is really fond of RavioliQueen's art for RBYWC and we would like to follow a similar path by including in some way a trophy that at least resembles the actual FIFA world cup trophy. Since it's the inaugural edition and we don't have any winning country to highlight yet, we could have one of BW staples (Latios?) holding or lifting the trophy while being surrounded by other staples like Tyranitar, Landorus-Therian, Excadrill, Alakazam or Keldeo for example. Feel free to dm me if you wanna discuss further
I can take this!

Requester: TheDuckChris
For: RMT Tournament Showcase feature - Evil Clefable Team
Art Direction: This is for an RMT and should showcase all of the pokemon together, with Clefable as the center member. It can be an evil clefable if you like or a normal one is fine. Here is the team :Clefable::Corviknight::Ting-Lu::Gliscor::Dragonite::Weavile: No text please, just the pokemon.

Requester: me, platty
For: Hackmons Cup Premiere League
Deadline: monday 4-28. We can push later with an "art tbd" if we need, but the tour signups date is fixed.
Art Direction:
historically Hackmons Cup hasnt had a lot of art, but what we do like to showcase are tiny cute mons doing unspeakable acts of terror. Like a lotad using v create (which we've used before) or a wooper gleefully raining Draco Meteors from the heavens. The more cute the pokemon, the more gleeful their expression, and the more savage their attack, the better. Outside of that the only hard requirements are we need the tour name in the banner, and it needs to look like its legitimizing this oft-maligned format, not making fun of it.


Thank u artists sm you make the community sparkle every thread :psytear:

Requester: zo
For: National Dex 1v1
Art Direction: We thought it would be pretty cool and fitting for Dragapult to be using a Ghostium Z Z-move. It's a little difficult to explain what the concept is, so our talented council member glitched drew up an idea:
referenceimage.png

this is just a concept and doesn't have the Z-Move itself or anything, I'd be glad to see it interpreted in an interesting way because Z-Move Dragapult is a novel idea for us. Dragapult represents the tier well as a potent threat that's also from Gen 8 and also can't use Z-Moves normally, so that's why it's the Pokemon of choice.
