Commissions

Detailed descriptions and character bios are very important; they will make it easier for me to understand what you want and allow me to work faster without complications. The end result of this means your drawing will be finished sooner. The more details you can provide, the more accurate I can be.

• If you want intricate clothing, detailed accessories, complex armor or mechanical elements, special effects or any other details of significance that may not be explicitly reflected in the standard pricing described above, I reserve the right to add, and communicate to you, an extra fee to add these specific details.
• Under normal circumstances, the maximum number of characters per drawing is two (2) and if you want to include more, please let me know first.

Examples of what I’m willing to draw are, but are not limited to, the following:

I will definitely NOT draw:

Extra details

As mentioned before, the basic rate doesn’t include any background or other complex details. Here’s a small list of what I consider to be “extra details” and will add to the final price:

• Clothing. Anything that’s not contemporary/casual, usually fantasy themed clothing, armor pieces or ceremonial/military garments.
• Accessories. Intricate jewelry, weaponry, mechanical parts and other similar objects.
• Special effects. Fantasy effects like magic spells, sci-fi effects like lasers, explosions, etc.
• Anything that requires complex posing and perspective, like action scenes, are considered extra work.

Background types

• None: Plain white or flat color. Only applies to Black Ink and Monochromatic drawings.
• Simple: Textured backgrounds, in black & white or color. Included in basic rate for any Color drawings.
• Detailed: Interior and exterior backgrounds that require extra work, like bedrooms, hallways or landscapes. No other characters should be in the background.

*Character sheet vs. character design

There is a difference. The prices shown in the “character sheet” tab are for OCs that have an established design already (drawings made by other artists or by yourself). I can change/update pieces of clothing or accessories, but this shouldn’t require me to design the looks of the character(s). All I do is draw them in my own style in different views like the examples shown.

A “character design” on the other hand is when no other drawings of them exist and need to be created from zero. This requires a bit more work and research done from my part, and will have a different cost that I’ll calculate depending on the description and references I’m given.

Format

• All my work is digital, no exceptions. No hard copies will be printed or sent.
• Full color illustrations will be done at 350dpi. The standard size I work on is A4 (210mm x 297mm), but it can be changed if you need a specific size.
• The commission will be delivered as a high-resolution flat PSD and medium resolution PNG via Dropbox Transfer. Working, editable files will not be shared.

Process

The commission process usually consists of the following stages:

1. Sketch
   • Pose and framing
   • Finished details
2. Lineart
3. Color and shading
4. Lighting effects
5. Final touches

I will send watermarked samples of the sketch for your revision and approval. You may also request small changes at the sketching stage, but are limited to two; if you want more changes, an extra $5 USD will be charged for each new adjustment. I’ll also send “WIP” (work-in-progress) images as I deem appropriate so that you can stay up-to-date as to your commission’s status. Some of these WIP images will also be shared online in my social media profiles.
