I'm a little skeptical about where these proceeds are actually going, but, hell, I'll send 50m ISK for my portrait. Big smile

Hello everyone,

I am a teacher working with the poor disabled children of the families working on Intaki Syndicate Stations. In these economic times our funding is hitting frighteningly low levels and I am at risk of having to leave for more stable work.

I am reaching out to the community to come and help me work with these wonderful young people.

For every donation of 50m isk one of the children will paint a lovingly hand-crafted painting of your portrait. This could be yours, or someone you wish to make a gift for.

As an opener, I submit to you a wonderful depiction created by one of my dear children, Merrill Howard Kailin.

We work from photographs because we understand how busy your time is. This is not some cheap modern automated service, each painting is lovingly hand brushed. Just look at the detail!

Consider this an investment opportunity. Fine art only increases with time.

Please consider having your portrait done or these children will be let down.


I'm one of these children, share the love.

You have enemies? Good, that means you stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Meryl, I one of my pupils will be working on your portrait shortly.

No ISK sent from the person requesting a Morganta painting but I might just have to work on one anyway because she is so beautiful.

Why help Intaki children for 50M when I can get my Minmatar slaves to do it for free?

Muwahahaha!

I am torn on this one. On one hand, there are no Intaki children working on anything as the Gallente are pretty cool about child labor laws so this thread should be locked.

On the other hand, this could be a legitimate portrait service so should be in Sell orders rather than GD.

Hmm. Think I will move to Sell Orders.

Meryl and Ace, apologies for the delay but the children were being ever so petulant yesterday and refused their usual chores. Lengths will be taken to ensure production will begin again forthwith.

As I was strolling around Black Rise one day, I witnessed a savage attack on a freighter vessel. The pilot cried out in desperation that he was merely transporting orphans, yet the ruthless pirates proceeded with destroying his vessel. What a horrible universe we live in. Will nobody think of the children?

Meryl Singarda finally. Bless little Gerards heart, he has the worst dyspraxia I have ever seen but he insisted on doing your painting...

I like finger paintings.

We are a bit beyond finger paintings and wish to encourage use of more contemporary mediums.

Here is Ace McFace's painting. Oil on wood.

I may have to instruct a more competent child to redo Meryl's and administer some discipline around here (no cookies for a week).
