Commissions
In case it wasn't clear enough on the previous page, commissions get my
absolute top-of-line work. Because of this, I regret that I can only
accept one commission at a time. Since commissions get top priority,
though, they get finished fairly quickly.
Have you read the Terms
of Use?
By eliciting a commission, art trade, or request, you are
agreeing to these terms as they are stated.

I think I've covered pretty much everything that needs
to be covered below. I'll still entertain questions, but please read to
see if your question has already been covered.

as explained in the Terms of Use.
If you require an image to be used in a commercial endeavor, contact
me for pricing, as depending on the project and use pricing will vary.

* Digital art is one-size-fits-all. Sizes will vary depending on image.
Digital art is created at screen resolution, suitable for web use but not
for printing.
** Digital painting is one-size-fits-all. The base canvas is 8" x 10" at
300 dpi, but canvas is modified during the artistic
process depending on need, so final size varies. In addition, digital
paintings can be printed at various sizes. A 300dpi 8" x 10"
piece printed at 150dpi would be 16" x 20".
° Computer color. Default is rough painted style. Flat color costs half
as much.
† Add $7 to upgrade coloring to print quality (default is web
quality).
I regret that I am unable to do anything besides what is listed here.
(Sorry, no markers, acrylics, etc.) Prices are subject to change without notice, but once the
price has been agreed upon (prior to the artwork's completion), price will
not change.
S&H Chart
There are a few ways you can have your order shipped to you. All actual
shipping is USPS, shipping confirmation included. Prices only apply to the United
States. International shipping may cost more; please ask.
Digital Transmission - A web-quality version of the image e-mailed to
you.

images, 300 or 600 dpi (your choice).

or illustration. Note that I charge considerably more if you want to own
the original art.

Style Options - ALL LINKS BELOW BROKEN FOR NOW,
SORRY!
If you have particular style you'd like me to try and emulate, please
include reference pics and I'll do my best. If not, you can either pick
and choose from the options below or allow me to pick based upon what I
envision for the project. The more freedom I have, the more likely I am to
accept the commission, but since it's your money, I want to make sure you
get what you want. :)
Drawing Style:
anime 1 - typical anime style (varies widely; specify style details or go
with my choice of "typical anime" style based on the image)
anime 2 - my anime style (a little more gritty and realistic) example
example example
example
semi-realistic - more realistic proportions (as close to real as I can
get it) example
example example
Coloring Style:
note: a normal piece will have a little leeway in this respect, since
certain elements require different shading techniques
painted - rough shaded, emulating a painted feel example
example
example
airbrushed - smooth shading example
example example
cel-style - solid shading (as in animation) example
example
Oekaki has the following options:
tones - pixelated screentone-like effects example

solid coloring - the oekaki version of cel-style example

soft coloring - oekaki airbrush/painted feel example example
Lineart Style:
with lines - lines included for a more cartoony look example

without lines - relies on shading to convey shape (more
"realistic") example

Content Rules
While I don't place any content restrictions, if you somehow manage to
supply something I feel uncomfortable with drawing, I will not accept the
commission. In other words: hentai is fine, but you get no guarantee I'll
draw it. In addition, I will draw commissioned fanart, but I prefer
original characters, particularly roleplaying or webcomic characters. :)
Please note, what you are paying me for is my time and effort in
creating my rendition of your request. If you have a picture in mind, it
will not turn out exactly like you envision, because you're paying me for
my vision. Got that? I'll do my best to comply with your wishes, but there
will be no refunds for the complaint "it's not exactly like I thought
it would be..." Sorry! I do my best!
Ordering
To order, simply e-mail
me with a description of what it is you want and links to any
available reference pics. Please be detailed; you get what you describe.
Naturally, reference pics make things easier if you have them, but if you
don't, here are some tips on writing description.
Remember to include what style you want, and what medium (if you have a
preference)!
Once I have decided to accept your commission (you'll receive a
response within five days) I will e-mail you back informing you that I
have begun work, or asking for additional information. The better your
information the first time around, the sooner I can begin work.
During various points in the process, I may e-mail you with in-progress
work for your approval. Please reply promptly to expedite completion of
the work.
Upon completion, I will inform you the work is finished, and you will
send payment. (Check, money order, or Paypal.) Once I have received
payment, you will receive the finished piece in the medium of your choice
(CD, digital transmission, or original hardcopy).
There are two exceptions to this payment process. For Oekaki
work, payment must be in advance. For digital art, half or full payment
must be in advance. (Your choice.) This is because once I have completed
work, the version I post in my gallery is the same version you get. If you
were allowed to pay afterwards, you could simply put in a commission, wait
for me to complete the work, and then not pay, collecting the finished
piece from my gallery. Do not send payment until I have accepted the commission and
instructed you to do so!
That should cover it! I look forward to working with you!
