COMMISSION INFO (Discounted because I suck!)
4 years ago
General
After conducting an independent review of my body of work, it's been discovered that I'm not very good at what I do! And thus, the pricing should reflect that, so I've put some slight discounts on here because when you say 'mommy I want furry art' and mommy says "we have furry art at home" I am the furry art you have at home. And you got it from grandma who found it in a weird thrift store that exists only in her town of 103 people, and it was handcrafted by the pastor's shut-in adult son with a neurological disorder than the family is desperate to hide from the congregation, fearing their judging eyes.
SIMPLE STYLE
The style I most often use for things like porn work, it's the style most of you probably associate with me at this point. With its more simplified process relying more on line work rather than fur and shading, it was designed to allow me to finish a drawing more quickly before my motivation is inevitably crushed by constant reminders of who I am and what I do. Although cheaper and faster, it offers fewer distractions from the glaring mistakes likely to be present such as crooked faces, improperly proportioned bodies, and unnatural looking poses.
1 Character: $30
2 Characters: $40
3 Characters: $50

WHIMSY'S SUGGESTION: Oh, you like my pencil work? It's apparent you've never seen good pencil work. Consider commissioning this artist instead: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/tanutanuki
COMPLEX STYLE:
In this style I attempt to cover up my shortcomings with a tedious blanket of fur on the character. As a result, this style is functionally useless on furless characters such as lizards, where I could only be saved by my actual drawing ability. Still, sometimes the trick works, and people are led to believe I draw in a 'painterly' style. The result isn't necessarily better but it takes more time so on principle, I should charge a little more for it. Most people recognize they're not getting much for their money and just go with the other style.
1 Character: $40
2 Characters: $50
3 Characters: $60
Background: $5 for simple, $10 complex
Example: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/44220116/
WHIMSY'S SUGGESTION: If you want truly good high-quality-style furry art, there's no cheating it, you have to get the real thing. Your followers won't be fooled if you post my stuff to your gallery. Yes, real art is expensive but until you're lucky enough to find an underappreciated up and comer working for less than they're worth, consider giving this artist a look: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/akineza
Backgrounds: To be discussed as needed but if you think I'm bad at drawing furries, wait'll you see me try and draw the straight lines associated with inanimate objects. Best to pass on this.
ABOUT ANIMATIONS:
The moving pictures are a fascinating little wrinkle in this fandom - it doesn't matter how bad an artist you are, if they're sexual in nature, people will generally eat them up. Still, even a mediocre animation takes a lot of time and effort to put together, effort I struggle to conjure up anymore. So, you're free to ask, I'll listen to the suggestion, and then I'll almost certainly say no. So certainly, in fact, that I'm not gonna bother pricing them here.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFO
I DON'T WORK FOR RIGHTWINGERS: Even if my shitty art is what you fascist fucks deserve, you're not even getting that.
I DON'T LIKE SPARKLEDOGS: And if I did, all those colors and markings would be beyond my meager abilities.
COMMUNICATE ON AN ADULT LEVEL: If I can't tell if you're a native English speaker and it turns out you are, you're really pissing me off. Maybe I can't draw but I can damn sure read and write and don't easily tolerate those who just plain won't.
I ONLY TAKE PROJECTS THAT INTEREST ME WHICH IS FEW: If I'm lucky enough to run across somebody bad enough with their money to not only blow it on furry art, but blow it on my furry art, you'd think I would have the gall to be choosy. And yet, as the impeccable machine of perfected self-fulfilled failure that I am, I am just that. The fact is I don't like most furry art themes or characters. Generic sexy-faced dogs with human hair do nothing for me and I have absolutely no interest in trying to unearth the introspective appeal to their character. I'm not saying I'd succeed even if I did, but I'm not even interested in making the attempt most of the time. In short, expect me to often say no, especially if your character is of a very garden-variety furry-fandom design.
So that leaves just one question left - who's ready to settle for Whimsy?

I really like that, it's the main reason why I watch.
