Hi, y'all! What follows are the basic categories I've set up for commissioned artwork. Keep in mind:

CHARACTER ART

     rough sketch – $20

_____________________________________________

     concept art - $30

     rough sketch with either rough conceptual or flat coloring on top; simple or flat-color background.
_____________________________________________
     EXAMPLE, EXAMPLE (+lighting), EXAMPLE, EXAMPLE (+color +lighting)
_____________________________________________

     ink/paint - $80+

     a more fully-rendered digital character with attention to light, shadow, and texture. Style can range from similar to the above category with full color/lighting options applied (the difference being that both light and shadow will be rendered in more depth - core shadows, ambient occlusion, etc) all the way to full painterly. Very simple or flat-color background. Final price depends on the difficulty of requested elements. (things that are difficult/time-consuming for me: human women, specific real-life human likenesses, complex armor)

EXAMPLE (outlines), EXAMPLE (outlines), EXAMPLE (painterly), EXAMPLE (painterly, a bit old)
     an inked and/or more rendered character from the "inks" or "ink/paint" categories above, but now add a fleshed-out environment! Attention given to composition, lighting, and texture. Final price depends on the difficulty and complexity of requested elements (things that are difficult/time-consuming for me: architecture, vehicles, firearms)

EXAMPLE, EXAMPLE, EXAMPLE
There are potential pieces (like storyboard panels, short comics, and rough concept environments) that don't really fit the assumption that you want a single character piece. Perhaps what you were looking for may or may not include characters at all, and focus on a location with composition and mood at the forefront. Could such things be requested??!

RULES/GUIDELINES

THINGS I WILL NOT DO

Extreme violence or gore (I can handle blood and injuries, but draw the line where it starts to get gross)
Sexual material of any kind. I'm absolutely OK with a cute, fluffy romantic tone, but am hilariously bad at sensuality and prefer to keep things pretty clean in terms of content (think PG). Please don't ask me to draw weird fetish stuff, even if it's technically SFW. If you have an idea that might be on the edge, don't be afraid to ask! I'll happily let you know whether what you want is in my comfort zone.

PAYMENT/PROCESS

Sketches will require the full payment up front before I can start. I will show you the rough pass, at which time you will be able to request one revision if you feel it's necessary. After that, the sketch will be done and no changes will be possible.

For inked/colored pictures: I prefer full payment upfront, but understand that everyone's on a budget. If you're not in a position to pay the full amount right away, you can request to pay a sketch price upfront instead. You will get one free revision on the sketch version. You will, however, need to provide the rest of the payment before I move on to final linework and/or color. You will receive updates with the linework is finished and again for the color pass (whichever is applicable). When the image is near complete, you will get the chance for one final revision, and upon approval, I will deliver the finished, full-res image. This finished image is considered final – no more revisions after you approve it. Additional revisions besides the two free ones I mentioned will be $5 apiece, so be sure to use them wisely!

Communication and updates on progress will be provided through email, Twitter, or Tumblr. Be sure to tell me which you prefer. I will keep you updated on progress – when your piece has been started, major landmarks/revisions, and finalization. Should there be a delay, I will do my best to be open and forthcoming about it.

Refunds will depend on the stage of production. If for some reason you change your mind or have to cancel before I've had time to send you the first sketch, I'll give you a full refund. If I have completed and sent a sketch, however, you will not get a refund for that work. If it's past that stage, I will determine what I have completed (linework, color, etc) and refund based on that. However, you will receive a full-size version of the work covered by the non-refunded money, as if that had been what you commissioned in the first place – it's only fair, after all.

RIGHTS

AND SO...
