It's COMMISSION TIME!!!

Yes... that's right... I am now taking commissions!! I'm very excited! So I made this deviation as a sample of each category. This journal will help to clarify the details of each commission section:

Colored: $15

Additional Characters: +$5 each

I can still do imaginary characters, or portraitures of real people. These are only available in full color. Listed commission price includes simple background details with a color overtone.)}

Character Design Sheets:

<sub>I have toyed with doing this for a while but after several more inquires I will add a special section to my commission list for this type of commission. For this, I will create a character sheet, not unlike this or this, where a profile of the character will be provided, along with an assortment of other sketches and poses, bios and color keys, done at the request of the commissioner.

All sheets will start with a base rate, at which the commissioner can add to for more detail. The purpose of this type of commission is to flesh out a character imagined by the commissioner and created by the artist. After creation and payment, that character will belong rightfully to the commissioner, to be used as they please. The only stipulation is that the commissioner does not claim the character sheet as their own work, and provide a link back to the artist's page when needed.

Each sheet will have by default:  2 orthographic full body poses (neutral pose and expression, front, back, side, ¾ front, or ¾ back.); 2 facial close ups; a color key; and a short bio provided by the commissioner. These features are set and cannot be taken away, but a number of drawings can be added, including a full turn around, more close ups, action or personality poses, and details of an aspect, such as an interesting tattoo or clothing, etc… Coloring can also be enhanced depending on the taste of the commissioner. Prices and features are as follows:</sub>



Sketch: Starting price $45 (for 2 lineart full bodies, 2 sketch faces, color key, and bio)
Flat colors: Starting price $56 (for 2 flat-color full bodies, 2 line faces, color key, and bio)
Fully rendered colors: Starting price $67 (for 2 fully colored full bodies, 2 flat color faces, color key, and bio)


Additional features :
Additional orthographic poses (Line: $15; Flat: $20; Rendered: $25) each.
Additional facial/bust shot close ups (Line: $5; Flat: $8; Rendered: $11) each.
Additional action/ personality poses (Sketch: $10; Line: $15; Flat: $20; Rendered: $25) each, Depending on Complexity.
Additional detail shots (Line: $5; Flat: $10; Rendered: $15) Depending on Complexity.
Complexity in character and design: $10 - $40 depending on level of detail (at the discretion of the artist)



<sub>So for example, if you wanted a front, side, and back flat color turnaround, with 2 lineart bust shots, and 2 sketch poses, the total would come to $96, since the template starts with the flat-color template. I base this off of what the first orthographic poses will be, as these will be the focal point of the sheet and used as a baseline for the character (the additional poses such as action and personality will likely be smaller and more simply done).

If the price seems steep, that's only because I am likely fully conceptualizing a character from the ground up. I take character creation very seriously and will continue refining the commission until the client it fully happy with it. Then after it's done, that character will belong to them entirely, to be used as they please</sub>    







Traditional Commission (Watercolor and Colored Pencil on SoftPress WC paper)

<sub>The reason for the strange measurements is because I get the paper in very large sheets and the easiest way to reduce the size is to fold and cut it in half continuously. I do this to keep from wasting any of the paper, since it is very expensive.

Custom sizes, or a-typical shapes can be ordered. My regular price is about $10 per hour. Different paper shapes and sizes will be matched closest to the size on the list, with an additional fee for the special order.    

Commissions will not have borders unless specified. If borders are wanted, (if you want to put something in a frame, for example), I usually add an inch on each side. The parenthesized size are how big the commission would be after the added borders; be aware that the borders will greatly change the size, this will not change the price.</sub>

Starting costs:

4.5 x 7.5" ( or 2.5 x 5.5") - $20
7.5 x 11" ( or  5.5 x 9") -  $50   
11 x 15" (or 9 x 13") - $120
15 x 20" (or 13 x 18" ) - $200
Larger – negotiable

(cost may change depending on number of subjects and detail in the environment, at my discretion)

(Originals can be mailed to the recipient at their request, with the additional cost of Shipping and Handling.



More Information

Commissions $50 and under will have a single payment when the commission is ordered. Commissions above $50 will have 2 payments, one at the order, then the other when the commission is complete, before it is to be posted or shipped.  

My process is, after payment, is to do sketches based on any description or pictures you might have and get feedback on them from you until you are satisfied. I might also do a rough color composition in digital (for speed) and get your approval on it. After that, I will work on the commission in watercolor and colored pencil, and depending on the size of the order, post small progress updates of the painting.  

For complex and pricey commissions, a small e-contract may be sent over email to clarify the order and process. At the conclusion of each commission before posting, a small contract will be sent to the recipient acknowledging that they will not use the commission in any use it is not intended (ex: reposting, reprinting, reselling, selling without permission, editing and copying.) Once signed, the commission will be sent to the recipient and posted online.

Payments can be made by check through mail (with time for it arrive and clear) and PayPal.
