I WILL NOT ACCEPT COMMISSIONS WITHOUT PROPER REFERENCE MATERIALS OR SUFFICIENTLY-DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS.
Be straightforward and thorough with your descriptions, but only convey relevant visual information, please. Any unspecified details will be left up to my own interpretation, and all revisions required due to your lack of explanation or misinformation must be compensated.

Types of Commissions

A commission must depict at least 1 subject (character, animal, vehicle, etc.).
Each additional subject adds +50% to the listed price.
A full illustration (i.e. detailed scenery) adds +100% to the listed price.

HOW IT WORKS

STEP 1
You send me a completed commission form. I will provide a price estimate for your idea.
STEP 2
You make a partial payment upfront before I start working on your commission. The exact payment will depend on the complexity of your commission. I will send you an invoice through PayPal. This payment will cover the time and effort needed to create the initial rough sketch. It assures that you are serious about doing business with me and indicates that you indeed have sufficient funds to pay for your commission.
STEP 3
I make a sketch and send it to you within 1 week. If you have a deadline for your commission, let me know, and I will determine whether I will be able to meet that deadline.
STEP 4
Once the sketch has been approved, I will send you an invoice through PayPal for the remaining cost. After you have paid, I will proceed with the final artwork.
PLEASE HAVE SUFFICIENT FUNDS BEFORE REQUESTING A COMMISSION! I do not tolerate late payments. If you are unable to pay the remaining cost, your commission will be immediately discontinued.
STEP 5
Be prepared to wait for the final artwork. I typically deliver within 1-2 weeks after payment has been made, but particularly complex commissions may take longer.
I may send you intermediate work steps so that you can request corrections if necessary.
Significant and/or numerous revisions will require additional compensation.
STEP 6
I may post your commission on social media and/or include it in my online portfolio. Please specify whether you do not want me to do so. Otherwise, I will assume you do not mind.
