At exactly 6 am tomorow ( Thursday ) morning, my 88 hour work weeks will officially come to an end. Thank God. I've been without a day off for over a month now and I'm exhausted and cranky as all get out. Don't get me wrong, the paychecks have been fecking phenom, but there comes a point where money is no object; sleep is. So not only am I looking forward to putting up my feet, but I have so many errands and general life stuff that did not get done during that time simply because it was impossible.

Also, I'm taking an itty bitty vacation at the end of the month. It's only 5 days, but I'm planning simply to stay at home, recoup, and work on art and commissions. So look for uploads becoming a little more regular in the near future.

Thanks to everyone for their warm and kind thoughts on my last entry, and for your continued support of my art and general creativity.

The following may change at any time. As commissions take up more and more of my time, prices may increase. Changes may be made also as I encounter commissions that bring up things I may have forgotten to mention.

*Please expect anywhere from several weeks to a few months depending on complexity and other factors in anticipation of your commission. I believe in producing quality work, and often do a lot of prep work such as character studies or several drafts of an idea before what is then the final, completed commission. Any and all additional prep work for your commission is given to you free of charge*

Base Prices:

Badge Option 1: $20 - Mixed media, color badge size 2.5 by 3.5. Comes in a pre-punched, reusable soft plastic badge holder

Badge Option 2: $30 - Mixed media, color badge size 3 x 4. Laminated onto heavy, color cardstock and hand-punched.

Pencil Sketches - $25 for one character - These are pencil sketches done in blue and gray pencil leads. They aren't 'clean', ie., there will be a lot of build-up of construction lines. Additional characters start at $5 each.

Clean Ink - Cleaned up black and white pieces start at $35 for a single character. Additional characters are $7 each.

Digital Colored Pieces - $50 for one character, with additional characters at $10 per character. These are done in Photoshop.

Traditional Hand- Colored Pieces - $60 for one character, with each additional character being $15 each.

Backgrounds start at $10, and vary depending on complexity. And any other add-ons or type of artwork is always negotiable or open for discussion ( like a simple profile view of a character to show markings and stuff colored digitally would be less than the normal digital prices ).

Content:

I'm basically a 'Rated R' artist. Violence and gore just short of things like disembowlment are fine. No pornography. Nudes of both sexes may be depicted with sexual organs visible, and may be drawn cuddling or passionately kissing another of either sex, but no 'insertion' or intercourse may be depicted.

I cannot be commissioned for licensed characters for legal reasons.

I can and will draw humans and/or anime style.

Payment:

Payment is required up front. I prefer paypal, but other methods are accepted.

I'm typing this up rather quickly, so I apologize if anything is left out. Thanks!!!
