    !Special deals!

    Full character sheet:

    Full colour character reference sheets are available. They consist of a front view and a back view plus a zoomed in portrait shot and details of any important features. Because of the complexity of these pieces the price is $20. Expect them to take longer as well as there's a lot more work involved. I'll only take 3 of these at a time, so if you want one, ask and i'll let you know if i'm free.

    Example

    Buy one, get one half price:

    For a limited time, i'm offering this deal. I'm that desperate for work. Order one commission from me, and get a second HALF PRICE! you can mix and match any kind you'd like but i'll always charge full price for the most expensive one (eg: you pick a full body pic at $12 and then select a portrait that usually costs $6... the portrait becomes half price, making it $3 while the full body pic remains it's normal price... make sense?)
    Of course, the best deal in this respect is to take advantage of essentially a "two full body pics for $18 deal"... but that's just me.

    line

    Materials used:
    .05 Mechanical pencil
    Photoshop 7
    A4 Wacom tablet

    All CG work will be scanned at 300dpi - 600dpi
    Work is sketched by hand, scanned and then all the inking and colouring is done digitally. Prints can be printed on high quality photo paper and sent to the customer. This may add a pound or so to the end price, but i'll try to keep any additional costs as low as possible.

    All traditional hand drawn work will be done on A4 paper, because it's all I have.

    All prelim sketches will be sent alongside digital prints (so you can see just how messy some of my basic outlining is.. heh)

    line

    Shipping charges (because everyone wants the original right?):

    Within the uk: $2:00
    International: varies, please enquire.

    All pieces sent in card reinforced envelopes (so no bending) and labled as photos or fragile to avoid them getting crushed or battered in the post (theoretically at least).

    line

    Payment methods:

    I accept Paypal at no additional cost.

    line

    When to expect your piece:

    It's not easy to work to a set deadline, and I usually prefer to wait till inspiration strikes. Never the less, I work quickly and once I sit down and start something it should only take me a day or so to complete. If you feel i've left you waiting to long (like weeks or whatever) or fear I may have forgotten you, please feel free to email or note me. Commissions are top priority and will be mailed out as they are completed. I endevour to keep people up to date with everything that's happening with their order and will ensure I inform you of any set backs or problems.

    line

    Interested?

    Feel free to email me or send me a note. I prefer if people can give me as detailed description as possible, and even in some cases provide me with references.

    If there's something you'd like me to draw that isn't covered by my price list, ask for a quote. I'm willing to consider almost anything.

    Legal stuff:

    Artwork is copyrighted to ME, even if the characters are not. This means neither party may redistribute or otherwise use any commissioned image for any profit. Never the less, it does become the commissioners personal property. You may post it online if you wish provided you credit the artist (myself) and link to my deviantart page ([link])
    Likewise, I reserve the right to post the image on any of my online galleries with mention of and credit to the character's creator and if possible a link to the commissioner's homepage.
