EDIT: Well I'm blocked and it seems they're calling for sympathy about me harassing them. FLY MY MINIONS!

Help me teach them why art theft is wrong.

Please read ALL of the following information before applying for a commission this round, it applies to everyone.

---

Terms of Service - I have revised my Terms of Service and all future commissioners must please note a large change. This is the introduction of the 'additional charges' terms. Most are straight forward and common with commission artists but one I will detail here to hopefully stem any confusion.

- A 'ref image' charge will be added for failing to provide a character reference that clearly shows all character details and colours in one image. Specifically a character reference sheet is an image designed to show all aspects of your character with easily selectable colours (flat colour or providing a colour chart) where all markings of the character are visible. (Exceptions made for Character Reference commissions and case by case for Artistic Freedom should you want the artist to play with the character design.)

To explain this in extremely clear terms, if you do not have a character reference you will be charged up to $10 AUD extra per character that doesn't, EVEN if you are commissioning someone else's character. This also applies to ref sheets that are unclear (missing details, inconsistent markings over views etc.) This is due to many instances over the years where I've been pulled up on a colour, markings or accessories on a character that weren't clear or consistent over the 3 - 4 ref images I was given. Also it's impossible to colour pick for markings on a fully shaded character.
For the sake of being blunt:
Reference Sheet: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19664120/ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/19691722/ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12308128/
NOT a Reference Sheet: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14168536/ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13441471/ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7755396/
There are dozens of free character templates out there for anyone to use as well as even more friendly artists willing to make one for you. If "I can't afford a reference sheet" is your excuse then I guarantee you there are ref sheets available for the same price you would pay for any commission of mine (I've genuinely seen decent refs offered for $10 or less), low quality is better than nothing. Or... you can commission ME for one.

Please make sure to read my ToS before applying, there are other small changes. I know this isn't a popular decision but complaints will not change my mind.

Commission Prices - I have rearranged my prices something crazy! Small price changes have been made, some were actually lowered, none are all that noticeable (even I can't remember which ones I changed). Also as you should know, I have a few new commission types available. These do not have examples yet but there are some in my queue so I'll work on providing examples too. (Those people please don't panic about not seeing yourself in my queue, I'm waiting til I can re-arrange my trello so the categories fit my prices. You're on the bottom anyway... sorry.)

"BUT WHERE ARE THE CON BADGES AND AVATARS?!" you may cry. All general commissions (that's all full detail, cell shaded and flat sketch) are available as con badges, and all head shots will be suitable for avatars. With con badges there is now an option on the form, so rather than select a background for your image you can select to make it a con badge. Simple eh? If you want, little ferals and chibis may be badges as well, just specify in the notes at the bottom of the form.

The Process - I have been wanting to do this for SOOOOO LONG!!! SO LONG! I'm still not convinced I'm popular enough to but meh. From now on when I open commissions I will not be offering 'slots' as per usual. I will be opening for a specific period of time and then choose the commissions I want to do from the applications submitted. If you miss out one time you increase the chance of being chosen the next time. All applications not chosen will be deleted so if there are long descriptions for your commission and you want to try again after not being chosen, I suggest you save that info somewhere safe. Sometimes I will post a small list of things that might have a greater chance of being chosen (cause it's stuff I feel like doing). This won't guarantee you a slot but it will raise your chances.

Thanks for reading, I know it was a lot. Now down to business.

COMMISSIONS OPEN

ToS - http://www.silvixen.com/terms-of-service.html
Prices & Applications - http://www.silvixen.com/commission-prices.html
Queue - http://www.silvixen.com/queue.html

Commission applications are now open and will remain so for the next 24 hours.
This time tomorrow people whose commissions I have chosen will receive a confirmation email and an invoice. If you do not receive an email you are most welcome to try again next time.
If, for any reason, I am not comfortable with the commission you've applied with I will let you know personally so that you don't waste any time applying with it a second time.
People who miss out will have an increased chance next time around so don't feel discouraged if I don't pick you this time.

Please note the length of my queue, it will limit the amount of commissions I choose at this time.

Things I feel like drawing: Anything, no preferences this round!

To submit an application click the appropriate 'apply here' button on my price page (link above).
If you have any questions you may comment below or send me a note.





Because I'm inconsistent and I know I've got a busy weekend ahead.

I got enough done yesterday to justify opening these slots. These are all that are available for now, please don't ask me for any other type of commissions.
There are no examples of these commissions yet so I need to do at least one of each for my prices. I'll take 2 of each, comment below to claim.

1. Cell Shaded Headshot $30 AUD - OPEN


2. Flat Coloured Sketch Waist Up $20 AUD - Taken


3. Flat Coloured Sketch Head Only $10 AUD - Taken


No Backgrounds!

Please comment with your ref and image details (I have no forms set up just yet.)





This is more of a heads up than an announcement.
Before my commissions open again I'll be doing a massive overhaul on how my prices are arranged on my site and how they relate to each other. This will also mean I'll be altering my forms so those who are used to them may have to look twice next time they apply. At this stage I can't confirm if I'll be changing my prices at all, it'll depend how things look once I've moved stuff around.

The basic idea is to add more range to my commission options without making things too complicated. Everything will be organised (for the most part) into sections that relate to the detail involved rather than the contents of the image. For example all full detail commissions (full body, waist up, head shots) will be moved under one section and one form. This will create options for things like cell shaded head shots, different varieties of coloured sketches etc. Chibis and Little Ferals will come under one form, avatars and badges may also fit under one form too. I'll have a better idea of how my prices compare to each other and will be able to raise or lower them accordingly.

I know I change this stuff around a lot but I still haven't reached a point where I'm happy with my set up so I simply ask you all to bare with me while I work this out. Again commissions will remain closed while I work through my queue. Potentially I may open for one every second weekend or something (as my money is running dry). However soon my attention will have to be given to convention prep and other projects as well.

Anyway thanks for reading.



Just a heads up to my commissioners that I may not be getting much done this week.

Thank you for your continued patience.
