Pictomancer Job Suggestion

First of all, hello and enjoy my wild ideas! :p

So, first idea is 2-fold:

1. Painting. Option for anyone to 'request a portrait' from a Pictomancer. Pictomancer will get access to all glamour plates, gear sets, and maybe even glamour dresser of the requesting party to use in gpose. A picture they create will be offered to the person with option to save and use. Optionally: mandatory and/or exclusive to Pictomancer 'painting filters', which are applied to these creations; portrait is signed by the creator name; consumes different paints in the process.
   
2. Emote. An emote with Pictomancer displaying their work, or any other in-game art, on a canvas.

Second idea is simpler:

Paintings. As a Pictomancer you get an option to change the size of existing paintings, and also have a list of exclusive paintings you can create. Optionally: a list of fan-made (dev approved, of course) artworks and screenshots, occasionally updated with new ones; consumes different paints in the process.

I like this idea… it could be as simple as allowing you to just use whatever the other player is currently wearing and create their portrait, with the assets already available in the portrait creator, but maybe give us a few painterly looking filters. And definitely a nice “ta-da!” emote to show it off after! It would be a nice way to let us have a performance mode like Bards do, but without the obvious downsides of freeform drawing. lol

The second idea is good too. There’s a ton of paintings from the sightseeing log that could already be used, but adding some new ones that could only be created by Pictomancers would be a nice touch!

Very flavorful idea. I actually really like little things like these to help your character really embody an aesthetic or lore you have in your head.
It can be simple and minimal, but being there matters, imho.
