Will you draw my character?
Maybe. It takes a lot of time to do character artwork and I never have the time to do anything in color for free. So I might sketch something out, the surest way to get art of your character is to RP with me. I don’t mean to be greedy but the better I know the character the easier it is to draw them.
You asked for character information, when can I expect art?
Don't expect anything from me unless you've commissioned me. Any and every bit of un-paid artwork is time away from work I could do to help pay my bills (Or in some cases, pay the server's). Please do not nag me for free art, it will only make me more determined not to do it.
Do you take commissions?
Yes. Commissions are usually open, though the turn around on them isn’t usually quick. I work on top of being staff, trying to find time to RP, and trying to scratch out something extra with my art. All payments must be made up front to my paypal (Which I will send via PM when commissioned).The rates are as follows:
- Sketch: …….…….... $10 USD (Pencil on paper)
- Inked: ……………..... $20 USD (Black and white linework)
- Colored: ………....... $45 USD (Usually prismacolor and ink)
- + $15 USD (US) Mailing originals
- + $30 USD (International) Mailing originals
- Character Sheet: … $60 USD (Full body of character with a small set of expressions)
Thats it. I pretty much want free reign to do anything from a bust to a body shot of the character depending on what I feel works best. They may or may not include backgrounds. If you absolutely must have a background or a particular pose or multiple characters it’s usually an additional 20.
I have made a little form, if you want character artwork you'll need to fill this out. I still don't guarantee artwork for anyone unless commissioned. Also remember that images, be then anime, photos, whatever, are always helpful!
Code:
[b]Height:[/b]

[b]Build/Weight:[/b]
(Built like a lumber jack? a body builder? a twig?)
[b]Eyes:[/b]

[b]Hair:[/b]

(Keep this simple. If your character is a snob, bully, warrior, then that's all I really need.)
When buying a picture from me, you must state your intentions for how you wish to use it. You are obviously free to post it on your own personal website so long as due credit is given along with a link to my tumblr (sentaipink.tumblr.com). If you plan to distribute the picture in the form of posters, t-shirts, or any other such media (for example, in online stores), there will be an extra charge for the right to do so. Also, if you're asking for a commission that includes your own character(s), the image stays under a shared copyright -- You retain the copyright for your own character(s), whereas I, the artists, retain the copyright of the image created. I will not deliberately redraw your character(s) without your prior consent. In return, I must ask that you please use my artwork only in ways previously agreed upon.
