Thread: How Do You Make Paintings?
Message Edited by Roogin on 09-06-2005 04:21 PM
From the FAQ (always a good place to check first):
Q-2.7: Can you make a rug or painting?
A-2.7: Architects do not make rugs there is one rug that is a quest item. Many paintings are NPC quest items. There are however paintings available on each server from the Bestine Museum curator. Architects can make those painting but availability is limited and each server has different paintings available. Contact your local architect to find out what paintings they have in stock.

Q-5.16: How do I make paintings? Where do I get the paintings?
A-5.16: Architects can make paintings by buying a limited use schematic from the curator in the museum building in Bestine. Go to Bestine and find the building named Museum on the overhead map. To the left of the entrance there is a room with a curator in it. You can see the current painting on display on the wall to the left of the entrance to the curator's office. He will sell the schematic for 48k. The schematic requires Furniture III skill and is a limited 2 use schematic. So you learn the schematic and then after 2 uses it goes away. However you can use those uses to make manufacturing schematics for a total possible 2000 paintings per schematic. The paintings generally require hide and other common resources but the exact ingredients vary from painting to painting. Hide is usually the limiting factor so you might want to acquire some large stacks of hide to do factory runs. Each server gets a new painting every 30 days. There is a two week period where people can vote on the artist they want for the next period and then a two week period of just buying. But you can also buy the last painting during the voting period. Once the new painting is out the older paintings can not be bought any longer, so it isnt' a bad idea to buy some spares if you can. There are different paintings available on each server so your server might not have a painting found on another server. I maintain a website with the paintings at: http://www.freepgs.com/pawlin/paint.htm
We can NOT make the quest paintings like the Twi'lek girl or the Endor forest, etc. ONly the 15 Bestine museum paintings seen on the URL above.

I'm not maintaining that webpage cited in the FAQ entries and a lot of the servers are bugged for current paintings and/or in repeats. I should update the FAQs entries about that.
How do you make paintings?
I don't. Or well, my alt doesn't. Infinity has been bugged for the last 4 or 5 paintings.
