Commission Prices & Examples 2022
Check out this page for my ToS & further information. By ordering a commission, you signify that you have read and agree to my ToS (with exceptions where discussed).
See current commission list here.
Commissions are currently closed! I'll be aiming to re-open them sometime in 2023 but my schedule is insane lately.
Pixel Art
Pieces of small art done in a pixel style; if you don't specify the size you want, I typically go with whatever I feel is best. More complex characters usually work better with a larger size, as it allows for more detail. Human characters will often have very oddly sized canvases since they're so much taller than they are wide.
These are nice to decorate your online pages with, and come with a simple animation (like the examples featured) for no extra cost. I also do glows and 'sparkling' animations. I don't do stuff like walk cycles - that's a bit too advanced for me and will take a long time and just look bad.
If you want to use these as an icon, let me know and I'll figure out what size is reccomended for the website you're on! DeviantArt now uses 100x100 icons.

Emblem
Price varies heavily on style & complexity! Orders of multiple matching emblems may receive small discounts. I'll provide a quote after receiving your order form.
Varying styles of emblems meant to represent things such as political factions, family heraldry, character classes, religious orders, etc. Main styles are fully painted and rendered emblems, medieval-heraldry inspired crests, highly graphic stylized emblems, and "pinwheel" emblems done with blocks of colour and symmetry tools.
Please provide a description of what you're looking for and what style you'd like it to be done in!

Examples
Symmetry Portrait
A lined, fully coloured and shaded headshot of your character done in a head-on view using symmetry tools. As a result of the process it's a lot quicker (and as a result less expensive) for me to complete than a regular headshot.
Characters with entirely asymmetrical facial features (ie where I would have to draw each side of the face entirely without using symmetry tools) may cost a bit extra.

Examples
Lined Portrait
Lined, coloured, and intricately shaded bust drawing of a character of your choice. You can tell me what type of pose/expression you’d like, or just leave it up to me to decide. I’ll send you a sketch to approve before I start lining, so if you want any changes made, please try to mention them then.
Examples
Colourable Base
Optional traits (such as horn/wing variations) can be added for extra charge, depending on complexity.
Lined and shaded fullbody template that can be re-coloured for future use. Good if you're running a closed-species group or need a consistent template to use for designing a set of characters from the same species. Can be shared with others or kept private. You will receive a PSD file and a transparent PNG file of the finished base. You may sell 'adopts' made with commissioned bases from me, however you cannot resell the right to just use the plain unaltered base.
Optional traits (such as horn/wing variations and other alternate features) can be added, but large numbers/extensive ones may raise the price a bit!

Examples
Lined Fullbody
Complex characters will incur extra charge.
Lined, coloured and shaded fullbody drawing of a character of your choice. You can request a specific pose or expression, or just leave it up to me to decide. Please note that characters with especially complex colours/design elements may increase the price.
Things that may incur a complexity charge:
Things that may incur a complexity charge:
- Extremely detailed patterning that will need to be hand-drawn.
- Feathered wings.
- Complex scaling/armour designs.
Examples
Custom Design
+ $10 USD each for additional sketched reference elements
+ $15 USD each for additional lined & coloured reference elements (not fullbodies)
+ $25 USD each to get a fully lined, coloured & shaded image of design
In its most basic form, I will create a fully-coloured sketch original design for you. (See above for the cost of extras).
You can either leave the initial idea for the design up to me, or request a specific type of creature, send me a colour palette you like, show me some cool photos or even make a whole pinterest board of images to inspire the design (do not include any NSFW images in design reference)! I will not create copies of other artists' designs, however.
My design commission process is as follows:
Interested in ordering a design to be done on a pre-existing template/base? That will be cheaper; leave a note in your commission request and I'll give you an adjusted price!

My design commission process is as follows:
- After receiving your order I'll check in with you multiple times throughout the design process, so please be sure to provide a method of contact you check semi-regularly (at least once a week).
- First with rough sketches to get the basic idea out; you can select what you like and I'll continue with that, or give me feedback on them and I'll make a different rough sketch that takes that into account.
- Once that rough sketch is done, I'll do a few colour concepts, ask for your feedback, and once everything's been decided on I'll get to work on the final design sketch & final colours.
- Once the final sketch is complete I'll send it to you for final approval. Once you've given the go-ahead/any final edits have been complete, I'll either proceed to formatting the design for display or start working on any additional reference elements that you added on to your design order.

Examples
Reference Sheet [CLOSED]
For basic reference sheet, see information below for cost of add-ons.
A detailed reference sheet showing off the different design features of your character. The price on this varies a lot depending on what you want.
The basic form includes a fullbody, coloured (but not shaded) drawing of your character with a matching colour palette and optional size chart showing them compared to a 6ft tall human, on a 'parchment' background (see second example) or a patterned background (see first example). This is 55 USD.
Characters must come with at least some pre-existing art (if uncoloured sketches, please provide a colour palette for me to work with!)/a detailed written description; if you want me to design a character from scratch, you'll need to buy a custom character design from me. (See below for details on that.)
Now, what if you want more than the basic? I'll add extra full-body drawings (with shading) for 40 USD. I'll add extra (shaded) busts (or highlights of different features, like wings or hands) for 20 USD. If you'd like labels describing different areas of the design, these are free - I'll add them if I feel they're necessary, but if you'd like more, just let me know!

Examples
Full Illustration [CLOSED]
Price varies on fullbody/headshot and how complex the backgrounds/etc will be.
A lined, full-colour, cell-shaded illustration with a painted background done to the peak of my ability. This is the most time consuming and complex of the commissions I offer, taking between 5 and 14 hours to finish, and thus the price depends entirely on how complex the illustration is going to be.
I will provide a set of thumbnails for you to choose from based on what you wanted in the illustration (these will be sketchy and won't reflect the final level of polish; they're there to get ideas out rather than look good), and update you at each stage of completion (sketch, lineart, colour, shading, background rough, and finished version for final approval) so that you can point out anything that needs correction before I get too far into the image, and so that you're aware of how close it is to completion.
Like the scene sketch, extra characters and certain background elements (complex architecture, machinery, etc) may increase the price.

Examples
Fantasy Map [CLOSED]
Price varies heavily depending on how large an area I'm painting and how many details you want added. I may charge significantly more if you ask for something very large!
A fully-painted, full-colour map that mimics the look of satellite images you could find on google maps. These are very time-consuming, hence the price, but very fun to make.
If you're interested in getting a complex map commissioned from me, I highly recommend you do a basic mockup yourself! Even if it's just some scribbles on paper or something you've generated on an online fantasy map maker (I personally recommend Azgaar's), having even just a very basic reference to go off is a lot easier to convey ideas such as locations & borders than text can be.
I try to add little details around each map marker to give it some character, so if you want this type of map, be sure to include a little blurb or some notes on each! Even just "[location name] - farming village" is helpful, since I can make sure to add little patches of cropland surrounding it! Please also provide things like genre, technology levels, etc so I can theme things like the compass rose, fonts & legend accordingly.
If you order this, please make sure to watch your messages! I'll be asking questions & sending in mockups frequently to ensure that the map is going in the direction you'd like it.

Like the "satellite image" map, price will vary depending on complexity. Maps of large cities are the most time-consuming in this style as I need to block in all the shapes of buildings/streets/etc.
Simpler, sepia-toned (or greyscale) maps. These are a lot quicker to do, but I think they're still pretty fun to look at, and as a result they're less expensive than the above style. I think they usually work best for maps of locations like cities or islands.
I won't use the same 'interface' and border as in the examples (since that's for a personal project - though I can do something similar if you want!); provide some notes on the setting and the genre/themes present and I'll work with you to design something that matches!
The examples I provided have numbered locations as well as text labels; this was for simplicity's sake for myself, I have a separate sheet with expanded information on each point of interest included beside where these maps are displayed. It's up to you if you'd like to do that as well or if you'd prefer the full name of each location to be on the map! Provided at least that they can fit there or on a legend.
