I don’t have notifications on Tumblr, the best way to get to me is through Discord
Acceptance:
I will give you a google form to fill out for information.​
Provide at least ONE full body color reference and a detailed description of what you would like!
If you have a sketch you’d also like to provide of what you’ll want that is also acceptable as a “description”
​
If the character is from a piece of media let me know!
Process:
Payment will be 50% upfront (see more in Payment Details)
If you need the payment more spliced that is fine!
​
I’ll begin by creating sketches of what you may want.
Once the concept sketch is acceptable I’ll do the line art and will check in for the coloring, shading, etc. as well.
​
When finished I’ll send a low render of the piece with a watermark
If acceptable you’ll send the final payment, and I’ll send off the final commission
​
I allow up to 3 changes before I charge for my time
If a change requires me to take more than 2-3 hours to do I will charge by the hour
Payment Details:
Payment will depend on how much time I spend on the drawing.
​
It will be $20 per hour + $5 an hour per extra character.
​
If all you want is a colored sketch, it will be $30 USD+ $5 per extra character
Price will be determined once I get the references and description of your commission.
​
I do this because prices can change depending on the complexity of a character, if there is a background/item element, or if there is more than one character
I’ll only be calculating time I spend ON THE PIECE ALONE!
Any distractions or warm-up sketches I do beforehand will not count in your final total
​
(I’ll provide a Venmo, Cash App, Zelle or what may be convenient once we have discussed prices)
Time:
I spend around 2-8 weeks at most depending on complexity and my own time.
​
If it is a commission I can not finish in that time frame I will let you know.
However, if it is past the 12-week mark due to complications on my end. I will communicate with you what you may want to do next in terms of finishing the commission.
​
If you need your commission sooner, a convenience fee will be added of 25-50% depending on urgency.
Note that you’ll still be paying upfront half the cost, you will only pay the full amount AFTER it is 100% finished!
