~ Our Masquerade ~


~ * ~

Welcome to our eternal masquerade, an art shop dedicated to the gothic fantasy attire and your stunningly beautiful characters.

We are not quite like other art shops in that we design your outfit for you.

Come and pick your theme, choose your colours, and we will create a masterpiece for your character and dress them in it.

~ * ~

The Fine Print:

1. We ask for creative license for their outfit, so we do not require references for their attire.
2. We will require references for your character - their hair, their eyes, their face.
3. This is an art shop for waist up singles only. We may offer more later on through auctions.
4. It is not first come first serve - we pick out clients carefully.
5. Our work is a labour of love, so we take our time. Please allow us at least 2-3 months to finish your piece.

~ Our Offer ~


~ * ~

We have two options for you...

The first is for you to have full creative control over your commission.

Pick your own custom theme and colours, and we will work with you to create your masterpiece outfit.

~ * ~



Our Price for Custom Themes and Colours:

▪ Custom Lined CG Style Waist Up ~ 1.5M
▪ Custom Lineless CG Semi-Realism Style Waist Up ~ BRIBE ONLY

~ * ~

The second is to pick from our featured themes & colours.

We will offer one of these periodically at half price (750K) up for lottery.

Register your interest with us and we will assign you a number to be chosen by the random number generator.

Winning number will win the featured theme commission.

*This option will be in the Lined CG Style only*

*We reserve the right to reject the commission at the lottery stage if we feel we can not draw your character*

The second option is not available at this time.
