Estimate waiting time for different comms, a guide
4 years ago
Heya!
First of all, I'm surrently "half" open for commissions. I'll post info about full opening VERY soon, since I'm getting prepared for a proper return now~
That's not what this journal is for though!
I've decided to post some estimate times for each type of commissions of mine so you'd know what to expect! I will update these every few months since it strongly depends on the current availability, number of commissions i have at the moment, etc.
If i warn you that you need to wait some time for the first WIP it means I'm putting you on waiting list now, since I have too many commissions at the moment - the time count starts when you pay and I'm sending you the first WIP.
Most of these estimates are 'pessimistic' since I don't want to disappoint you with longer wait afterwards. If my queue isn't too crowded at the moment, you'll most likely get the art sooner. Some orders can be completed even within one day, but that's the case with the simplest ones mostly.
Very simple commissions: icons, speedpaints without background
I usually complete these within 1-2 painting sessions, so it's from 3 days to one week most of the time. 2 weeks should be max.
Simple commissions: simple speedpaints with background, simple mixed media, smaller sets of stickers, small reference sheets, simple floral portraits.
From a week to 4 weeks max, if something unexpected occurs, I'll let you know.
Complex commissions: floral portraits, complex speedpaints, fullbodies, simple traditional art, most reference sheets:
From 1 to 4 weeks usually. Might be 4-8 weeks in case of more difficult commissions, you'll be warned if for some reason it'll take longer.
Complex illustrations : digital illustrations, mixed media ones, difficult traditional art.
I'm really careful with these, so I prefer to warn you it'll take longer. From 4 to 8 weeks usually, up to 12 in special circumstances. Sometimes it takes shorter time, but I prefer to warn you beforehand, since I need a few difficult sessions to complete these.
