Five Concept Art Sketches - Winner will receive contract for up to $1000+

Contest Brief

I'm looking for simple concept sketches for fantasy miniatures. I have a 3D modeler who will take your concept art and from it create a 3D model. I expect your concept art to show a dynamic pose, and to show the equipment/armor/weapons being carried.

The amount of detail you want to show is up to you, but I am offering $10 per sketch, so please show me what you can deliver for $10 per sketch. I have over 100 concept sketches that need to be created, so there is no shortage of work to be done. All types of fantasy creatures may be included.

Notes:
- Color is not required.
- Basic shading would be nice so that the 3D modeler can get a feel for the design.
- Please include a round circle representing a miniature base in the sketch. The size of the base should match the specified size of the model. Small, Medium, or Large.
- Small base = 4' diameter, Medium base = 5' diameter, Large base = 10' diameter.
- Creatures should have at least two points touching the base so that the miniature will be stable when created.

Creatures:
1) Vampire - Medium
2) Ice Giant - Large
3) Orc Archer - Medium
4) Pixie - Small
5) Goblin Shaman - Small

    I apologize because I thought there was just one definition of a pixie. Turns out everyone is drawing something other than what I had in mind. To me, a pixie is like a fairy. Feminine. Like this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5eGCb7M_PvI/TcGaTt1vgmI/AAAAAAAAFoE/1qTZhhAnZmM/s1600/pixie.jpg

    Here is a YouTube video that shows a guy making 18 basic figures in 9 minutes. I'd like a bit more detail that he shows in the first video, but this shows that it can be done! Watch the second set of videos as well and you should be able to see what I'm looking for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEl__CfOT7U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UB_lvzfXf5E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7LzlS6ijQ4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krYUPEb6bsQ

      I don't need 3D concept art. Just 2D sketches.
