Alright so I finally started watching Transformers Prime and holy ffffff it's the greatest thing ever. Or one of the greatest things ever i've had to flop around with as far as a Transformers universe is concerned. I want to draw them ALL OVER THE DAMN PLACE but I must learn their ways, because they are very complicated if you get past all the rounded parts and what not.

And I say this because if you didn't know by now I am a little OCD when it comes to details. This is my power.

Wheeljack is a beast, lol. Reminded me a lot of what Drift would be, i'm sure that bot will show up eventually and Lockdown too.

Need some femmes, give me some Slipstream and we're good to go. Oh ho ho, robo ladies. C:

Did I just admit to liking them something fierce? Meh, it's been apparent for awhile. Do ho.

And traditional pictures...sheesh, it's been awhile. Let's see if this thing i'm working on now will be the fruits of the labors...or something.

Hope you all had a Happy Easter! I still need to go gather candy on sale...feck.

Yes. The best subjects for journals ever have returned.

Slow as I am, i'm working on trying to finish commissions and hate how slow i'm going, but my brain is still being stupid in a way. I hate having to try and find the complete motivation I did have, it's like sometimes it completely clicks like in 2009 and around 2010, but 2009 is when I did it myself, and I really want to get just capture that again. DAMN YOU BRAIN!

Anywho-sits...apparently this computer and all it's power cannot comprehend PhotoshopCS5 when i'm using a 400 DPI image in 16 Channel. But considering how much crap I throw all over the layers, even if i'm using very small amounts of them, i'm not surprised. I'm left wondering if a stronger video card might be better, because this thing has a 6gb Ram DDR3 wtf ever and a bunch of other craziness, it should not be being ridunkulous...and quite literally, I don't use many other programs. BOGGLES ME.

But yes. Quite. Now to post newest commissions. I have to slap around my own stuff soon, looking at some of the colors being thrown down on these things makes me pine to see my own characters frolicing in lala land, I tell you what.

Also, I want to try out this Copic Multiliner SP pens like a beast...really wanting to smack around real media again because the digital is starting to make me rage like back in summer 2010, so I guess we'll see how that flies.

Also, good song, OneRepublic - Marchin On : http://youtu.be/UHvgAJe8bvM

Songs tend to power me, and after things calm down, lyrics help me out a lot. This is one of those, always finding them on accident.

Have a good one, you crazies.

And to those on the Commission Queue, keep watching it, I hasn't forgotten about you all, lol. I got one more big one to mess with after this last one...I will definitely be doing slots in smaller portions when all of these are cleared up! Craziness!

BOTCON 2011 will be mine. >8V

I must draw more things and finish commissions and illustrations. I've been dead lately, but slowly I return from my slumpy poopoo land. Maybe. Kinda.

Also more stupid Transformers. I love them.

Actually made it through the first episode of Prime, YAY. Yes, i'm that far behind...but honestly, I love a lot of the characters including the humans. I will eat Raf's face off he's such a cute little child. It's Chip Chase done right...unless he screams courage at some point then I might have to throw sticks at him.

Ah yup. I must play with the TFP style soon. Feck.

there was today.

Going to put stuff together, push back the tide, and doodle.

After I walk of course, because it's nice out.

Also my phone is dieing, I won't be needing it much longer anyways - should just get with the times and get a track phone.

If for any reason any open up, I will update right away.

I will be doing more commissions after these works are completed and I have some recovery time, so if you missed out and really wanted a hit, rest assured it will be up again.

In any event, also tossing this up here because happy times...

IDW is releasing a new comic series based on that giant monstrous, well, King of Monsters and if anyone remembers a a few weeks ago I mentioned being like, busy for a week or something...yeah. They had special cover deal going on for some comic book stores and I ended up helping with doing lines and some colors for the covers! Check it out~ and if you are wondering, basically did up a few of the buildings being crushed with linework, lol. It was fun. Matt Frank aka :devKaijuSamurai: did the template of Godzilla's foot and quite a few of the other images if you check out the article! So many awesome artists too, here is a direct link to his post with all the covers including everyone who helped work on the project! http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/#/d39x5px Yay! Anywho, here is the link to information about the new series: http://www.scifijapan.com/articles/.....ring-godzilla/

That is all! Will update the pending work and such!

Yup. Commissions. Offering full blown colors this time as well, BUT keep in mind...that's the high up stuff.

UPDATED TOS/FAQ: http://deludedcon.livejournal.com/51697.html

5 slots on FA.

IF you are interested and have read the above, leave a comment here, i'll PM you and talk about the image in question and finalize things with you there.

Any questions, you can ask here and i'll try and answer to the best of my abilities.

Also, before anyone asks...no adult art. Sorry!

Just to clear up the other.

I could have just have easily edited another journal but no. CLEAN SLATE.

----

Commission FAQ. Good stuff.

♦E-mail is Deludedcon [a] GMAIL DOT COM .

♦After consulting about image inquiry and finalization is completed on that front, payment will be made. I only accept Paypal in $USD. I will give you my Paypal address once things are on the ball, will get a sketch down, get the ok, and start murdering said image.

♦I accept and prefer Paypal. For those on Deviant Art, I do not at this time do artwork for DA Points.

♦Artwork is done digitally. Traditional work is on hold for the time being.

♦I will make note of the number of slots open on both FA and DA at any given time depending on my my preference.

♦At this time I will only do ONE image per person to be fair. Basically put, no multiple image commissions on one slot just by one person.

♦Due to this being one of my major ways of making money, I will not be doing many trades.

♦As for turnaround, I take my time.

♦Examples will be provided if you need something to look at in specific concerning any of the art styles/work offered below. I will be posting examples on each eventually, however. Like doing one of those neat Commission page things...BUT not right now!

Strong points:

•Transformers
•Dinosaurs
•Dragons
•My Little Ponies
•Fantasy beasts, monsters

•As for coloring, I prefer coloring Transformers. Shiny.

Not so Strong Points:

•People
•Clothing
•Weapons (WIP, THIS I plan on working out.)
•Vehicles (WIP, same as above)
•Backgrounds (WIP definitely)

Content:

•Much appreciated that people do not get offended that I will not draw certain things. 8D

•I like fight scenes and interaction scenes.

•I WILL NOT DRAW ADULT ORIENTED IMAGES. Closest thing might be something very clearly SUGGESTIVE but that's about it. I like suggestive, provocative pin ups and romantic, seductive art but nothing that just screams, for lack of better terms, 'PORN'. Yes, some may argue I used too, and probably still do but i'm not offering so please do not ask me. I'll know right away you haven't read through this if you ask me about any form of erotic imagery.

•Romantic CanonxOC I will not do. I have nothing against people doing this, this is just my preference. I prefer to do OC characters, or redesigns of Canon.
If you have any queries that concern content that isn’t listed here, do not hesitate to ask.

•CanonxCanon is also something I will not do, UNLESS there is ample support for this. I do not draw slash/femmeslash pairings when it comes to Canon characters. Why? Simple. They do not belong to me and also is something I am not into as a fan.

UPDATED Commission Pricing

So, i've been toying with this for awhile really - back in November of 2010 I ended up doing a small test with commissions and they are quite a bit of work.

As I said in that original FAQ which was posted on FA, the prices were subject to change, and change they have.

I will also be offering full blown colors, these take the longest and are the most expensive. You have been warned.

Also, additional characters and backgrounds in an image WILL alter the price. PM/E-mail for details and exact charge.

***

MLP:FIM

Want your TF OC or just general OC done up like one of these? Yay Ponies.

This gets a separate section. Pricing on these is different then the normal work as they are easy to do and turn out. This is for single characters, additional characters price will change accordingly.

$7 full body sketch, $ 15 Full body Lines, $20-25 full colors depending on detail/complexity/Simple BG.

***

Now for actual normal Commission work pricing. Prices are handled on simple to complex basis. Transformers are complex, no way around it. Heavily detailed dragons, dinosaurs, armored characters also fall into this category, PLEASE keep this in mind. I will quote you on the actual price.

SKETCHES

So sketches. Pretty easy to do, and very fast - done up in Photoshop with the pencil brush, these are the cheapest. Single character/no BG...and if there is something specified, the pricing can be negotiated. I normally sketch in blue and alter the coloration in Photoshop to be a darker blue or gray.

$7-10 for head busts/torso. Simple character, Complex character. Transformers are complex, no way around it.

$15-20 for full body shots. The more complicated the character gets, well, the higher the ante gets.

I can and will consider doing shaded up sketches if one wants, just ask and i'll give you a qoute.

These prices are listed for SINGLE characters.

•Examples•
- Gallery with a ton of sketches:
TF: http://deludedcon.deviantart.com/gallery/24795032
Not so TF: http://deludedcon.deviantart.com/gallery/23592513

LINES

So, you want the sketch lined? Well, this is where it gets a little crazy... This basically goes from sketch to refined sketch so I can put the lines down, and depending on detailing and what not, the price crawls upwards. I am very very obsessed with my lines, just throwing it out there. This isn't to say it will be ridiculous, but...

$15-20 for busts/torso. Quite literally, detailing for me comes in with the inks.

•Examples•
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4717877
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4719065
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4750704

$25-40 Depending on the detail, this is the new price for full body linework. My last bout with commissions basically proved how long and ardous this can be, SO, if you want something like this, this is the pricing. It is up to my descretion as to the final price on your character. Dragons, Dinosaus, and Transformers will be in the higher range though.

•Examples•
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4769691
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4737730
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3964341/
-http://deludedcon.deviantart.com/gallery/25751785#/d37n04t
-

Linework that contains backgrounds, multiple characters, etc, will be far higher. The prices here are for SINGLE characters.

COLORS

Instead of just flat out making a price, this is how these work. Depending on the LINEWORK option, you basically add these prices to it for colors.

+$15 for CG flats. This includes designs and color holds/lines depending on the linework in question.

•Examples•
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4737746/
TBA

AND THE KICKER. Fully rendered images

Fully rendered craziness. THE WORKS. This is the stuff that takes forever. The coloring on these is full out shades, lighting, cell/soft cell, whatever you want to call it. This mess of lines and colors is the hardest to deal out, i'm not going to play around with this stuff.

+$25-30 Busts

•Examples•
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4014231/
-http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3495128/
-http://deludedcon.deviantart.com/gallery/25751785#/d301xa5

+$35-40-50-60 FULL BODY*

*THIS price CAN and will change depending on how complicated/complex an image is. This stuff I can not stress enough is usually what wracks my brain, so if you really want one of these, then by all means. These also take the longest to complete, obviously.

A fully rendered/colored image with a background and multiple characters for example will probably run well over $100 USD.

•Hopefully this was comprehensive and not too confusing. If so, again, PM/E-mail with any queries.

I sure do like posting things late at night. I guess it's to hide the fact the mecha are running around the throngs of fur. Then people find me...zomg.

Also ugh this commission listing thing is durp. Oh well...it's close. Woo.

Yes, you heard me. Don't fight it.

EDIT OK. I'm tired, I was going to put up Decepticons being awesome including more horrible OCs but that will wait til later when i'm more sentient.

Also clang. wait not you can't see it ever. FUC-

♥

Some stuff is so going to go down. And by that I mean commissions.

Yes. Disgusting horrible commissions done by yours truly. You know they are terrible, don't lie.

Anyway, just redoing the pricelist...i'm still going to keep it at a limited number as i'm NOT going to over do myself, even if i'm pretty friggin' doodly fast.

Also, probably opening up full colored rendered images, that will probably kill me. They will be expensive as they take a long time to do.

Also, if you are getting the Godzilla comics...I will have to list the stores when I get the OK, BUT...yeah.

That was fun.

I had a list of people that were interested when I re-opened, but when I moved back home I lost it. ><; I'll probably be doing mostly Transformers related stuff honestly, so I guess we'll see how this goes. I like rendering color on mechanical things anyway. More clang clang clang, you know.

Pro work.

It kicks my ass.

Nice to know my new years resolution got destroyed quickly, LOL. Who'da thunk. As for what it is, i'll keep it under my hat sorta until it is released.

Now to fall back on the one I didn't make...

Ugh.

Also Transformers. THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST.

Sorry I don't update here as often. Must of my slag (hurhur) is on DA.

OK. Back to work... *cries blood, stabs self in eyes*

May be opening up commissions soonish too. I may have said that before but yeah - good chance. Though i'm not sure how apt i'll be to opening them up here...I feel mostly like drawing horrible Transformers. And maybe some freakish ponies. It all depends.

New year, had to go with this.

Been meaning to do so for awhile...but yeah. A lot has transpired, it's time to kick it up a notch one could say.

In any event, will probably port SOME of my images from my old account, but this is basically where all my newer work will be hosted from now on (obviously).

Will probably be posting commission information as well, an UPDATED FAQ on that, and those who did inquire back when I did my commissions and were not able to get on the list, I've got a list somewhere (hopefully) so when I start up again, will have that set up for you lot.

In any event, I must work on my personal projects to work myself forward with inking with *gasp* ze brush. SO, will probably see a lot of durpy things that will be basically dinosaurs and transformers and some other random stuff thrown in.

Probably a lot of Transformers, just sayin'.
