Site SCC Artists

Users who are lucky enough to get a Silver Custom Crystal have a choice to either create the custom pet themselves, commission another user for one, or can ask one of the Site SCC Artists to create one for them. Having a Site Artist draw your SCC for you costs nothing outside of the price for the actual crystal, because it is a special Aywas feature that Slash pays for. There is a great range of artists with a great range of styles, and it should be possible to find the artist for your needs.

What To Do
First, after getting your crystal, before you do anything, you MUST check that the Artist you wish to have draw your pet is OPEN for requests. You can check on the Aywas SCC Artists page; and if the Artist's status is CLOSED, you may not ask them to create your SCC. If you have your heart set on that artist, you may wish to wait until they are back open for requests. The only Artist you may not want to hold out for is Kontenia (#2266). Kontenia is the official Aywas site artist, and drew most of the Aywas species. She was the original SCC artist, but when it was realized that she had too much work to do, Slash hired more artists to draw SCCs. Kontenia has not been seen on Aywas for several months, and has not given an update for SCCs in several months, so it is best to choose one of the other SCC Artists while she is away.

Next, you must ask the artist you desire if they will take your request. If they are especially busy or believe your design may be too difficult, they may decline your request, though it is believed to be rare that this happens. When the artist agrees to take your request, it is then that you must send over the Silver Custom Crystal to Slash (#1). You simply need to send the item along with a Private Message to Slash. All that is needed in the private message is "I am commissioning the site artist _____ for my SCC." Then, you must wait. The Artists all have lives, and must juggle many things along with SCC commissions. Most of the artists will give a sketch for you to approve or disapprove along the way, to make sure your design is executed the way you wish it to.

When your SCC is finished and the artist has sent you the image, you must then send the image to Slash in a Private Message (try to use the same one to save space) so he can upload the custom pet to your account.

Then, you're finished! You don't need to pay anyone, you just get to enjoy your new SCC. Be warned, it OFTEN takes a LONG time for SCC Artists to complete your SCC. Remember to be patient!
