Commissions are officially closed. Thanks for all the business. :)
A brief guide to how this works:
When you message me, get to the point. I am unlikely to respond to a message from a stranger that just says "Hello." Tell me you want a commission immediately.
We'll talk about what you want and figure out the price.
If you don't have a reference for your character, it is a description commission and you will be charged an additional $20 for the design phase. In this scenario I will create a character reference for you with rough lines and flat colors.
For most commissions, you will be invoiced after the sketch is approved. This provides two-way insurance. The sketch proves I am legit and will give you a product you like. And me getting payment before the art is finished insures I don't waste my time on a scammer.
For description commissions, you will be invoiced after the character reference is completed.
For avatar commissions, no insurance, you will be invoiced before anything is drawn.
Once payment is received, I will send you updates. Commissions are completed in my free time and so have varying wait times. So far I have not had any complaints about the wait time.
Be sure to review the drawing at every stage. It will be easier to make changes to the lines before I color, etc. Do not hesitate to let me know if anything needs changing in the final version. You're paying good money for this stuff, I want to make sure you are pleased with it.
Once the commission is complete, a watermark will be placed on it. You may not remove the watermark, but you may request that its position be changed. Typically, I will plaster it across well known characters, and put it off in the corner for obscure OCs. I will try to prevent it from being easy to crop out though.
When you share my art, a link back to the source is always appreciated, but not required due to the watermark.
