Welcome to my art shop ☕


[OPEN] [CLOSED] [HIATUS]
Sept 21, 2016 Reopening shop. All former patrons get first dibs, cos I'm sorry.

Checklist: subject, style, size, settlement (negotiate)


■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■


References can be found on my deviantART
Also on my OneDrive, where styles are sorted and all that jazz.

Rules and otherwise:
»Follow Gaia ToS
You may request more than one artwork at a time (please use separate trades).
You may request an alteration to the actual artwork or the image size in the future as I try to hold onto all my .psd's, .sai's, and .psp's.
You will not alter image or remove any signatures or watermarks I have placed without my permission. That is the path to stealing, pal. If you are the one that requested the artwork, you may ask for alterations but I will always have my identification somewhere on the piece (however small it may be).
You will not use my artwork posted here or elsewhere unless you are the receiver of said artwork or you've gotten my permission to do so. However, I would much rather cater a new image for you if you intend to use my artwork for a roleplay as I have an intense aversion to people using my characters that way. It's like someone else using your photo for a dating website or something. Feels weird, man.

»You do not need to subscribe to the thread, I will submit the artwork here and PM you when finished so you don't miss it.
»If I do not respond within 48 hours, I probably saw it and cannot respond at the time. I will try to respond to requests as soon as I can because I'm impatient myself so I can sympathize.
»If you don't mind freebies, I end up really getting attached to a character sometimes when I'm stuck staring at them for four+ hours on my screen, so I may or may not throw some extras your way. If you've asked for an OC or something and I like your avatar, I just might secretly sketch it for fun <w< (you'll get to see it, secret's out in the end!).
»All giftart (of my avatar, OCs, or favorite something or other if you feel like stalking about) will result in an art-trade whether you like it or not~

»And most required of you is patience. I don't work with slots, I do what I can at the time. I will not finish the trade until I'm finished with the drawing so do not worry. If it's more than two weeks and I haven't started, I'll renegotiate with you and lower the price.
I've also got this annoying sort of talent that likes to appear for a few hours and go whoknowswhere for a week at a time so it might take me awhile to get things right.
You might notice alot of my work seems rushed and unfinished. That's because drawing is only a hobby for me and I don't have to finish for me. I'll get a new motive before finishing the last one. I will much more focus on your requests, though. Earning your digital money and respects is a bit of the push I need, hahaha.

SUBJECT

Will draw...
(I've got a fear of failing the things you see in your head so to get as close as possible, follow these guidelines... unless you, for some reason or another, trust me to throw caution into the wind and fly a kite)
»OCs: Picture reference if you have it (and I wouldn't mind a brief history lesson (I'm a writer and roleplayer, so this sorta thing interests me)), colors (will accept a swatch if you make one (image, RGB, or hex, url), name, distinguishing features, personality, body type (height, shape/weight, possible deformations), ethnicity if applicable, and just about information you think I should know to get your characters just right!
swatch sites I suggest -> O | O | O
»avatars: (this includes SecondLife and videogames with customization options, such as RPGs and MMORPGs)
Please let me know if there are any distinguishing characteristics you see in you mind when you look at your avatar, because we're all pretty standard here. If there is anything such as: marking/tattoo/birthmark/scar, altered eye or other facial feature not available in an item (say you just liked the color of something), alterations in general (change in wing size? length of a skirt?), bust size if you'd rather be flatter or more voluptuous, if you'd rather have them skinnier, athletic, or filled out, height, personality (for pose and expression aid). These things make the avatar a little more you, y'know? (even if it's just the inside you, 'cos I'm sure we're not all this crazy awesome). Also, since Gaia flips images for forum posts, tell me which way the avatar should be facing for their details to be accurate (this is especially good to know if you've got other avatar art and you don't want any to be mirrored).
»fan-art: Series title and character name, please. If I cannot find it, I will ask you for assistance.
»couples: Loins don't matter (see OC and avatar)
»small groups: (see OC and avatar)
»genderbends: Will not genderbend a copyrighted character.
»game sprites: Original for RPG Maker, etc, and edits of existing sprites, granted you're the owner or have permission
»anthropomorphic (furry)/animals: Although I'm not all that adept with them, I will try. I've got a few, albeit, older, drawings of my own characters, so take a look. I don't upload often, so ask if you want to see something more recent.
»monsterfolk: please, please, please
»Pokemon: (optional) Let me know the natures and secondary trait of the Pokemon if it is one you've caught personally. It will help with the personality (If you want it to, anyway. I have a thing for naming my Pokemon very fitting names based on what they are). Also, if they are shiny, that'd be good to know. If you've got a specific location in game series you'd like it based in, I'll do that to. Or if you'd like me to draw it (as best as I can) in the Pokemon style instead of my own, I'll give it a shot but you've got to let me know ahead of time.
Also will accept game sprite requests. Full teams get pricey.

»Digimon/Monster Rancher/ Neo Pets/ etcetc
»Minecraft Skins: As obnoxious as making these is, I'll do it.
»Mature content: Don't step on the ToS, gore is fine with me though. Shoulda found me elsewhere~

I have trouble drawing, but will still try if requested: realism, some animals/anthro, robots (will try hard 'cos friggin' I love 'em), backgrounds of any kind (architectural and landscape), large groups. I will let you know if I'm having issues with your request and we can work something out or put it aside until I'm able (in the interim, you could always request something in its place).

REQUEST STATUS

I'll try to work on these in the order I've received them. No guarantees (my interests and talents are fleeting). Final work will be posted both this thread and sent to your PM inbox so you do not have to follow the thread and you won't miss a thing. Final works will be hosted on OneDrive (and maybe deviantART) and WIPs on photobucket. Let me know if you cannot access either of these websites and I can email the image(s) instead.

ANY PREVIOUS REQUESTS ARE STILL VALID, IF YOU SEE THIS, AND STILL CARE ABOUT THAT THING FROM BEFORE, I'LL DO IT. I've lost the original files, sadly. My HDD clicked one final tune....

PRICE



Prices are temporarily negotiations only. Inflation has ruined the fun, guys, making it unfair to the ones that don't throw their wallets at the site, and my usual prices are far too pathetic for the virtual fatcats.

RLC
I use PayPal, PM me for email address for bug me on tumblr/email for negotiations.


GOLD
▼Discounts: +half price for each additional character, art-trades (full or partial discount), baton-pass* (see affiliates), repeat offenders (as I get sorta used to drawing your character after awhile, y'know?)

▲Increases: If I have too much trouble drawing the thing like mecha, need to buy/borrow supplies (alcohol markers' increase included in prices below), dramatic poses or complicated interactions, backgrounds

prices increased on
09.21.2016 prices reflect my actual commission prices, USD->GC->gold
08.03.2017 slight increase

I am not asking for physical money here, just showing the comparison for the sake of pricing. This should be fine with ToS, since I'm only charging gold.

STREAM

I stream at Picarto, both digitally and traditionally.
I tend to work on things fairly biased, so if you're around for me to pester with questions, I'll work on yours sooner, y'know?

I do play music and take requests, though I might not heed to them. I mostly play things thematically, so upbeat, downbeat, weeby, ska, videogame OST, etc. I apologize for ads if they happen....

AFFILIATES

Any art shop may become an affiliate. Wouldn't mind an art-trade for the heck of it, you awesome artist, you~
Any other artist may join my little baton-pass idea just below, given you're willing to put in some real effort.
User Image freebs -> OwO
User Image My best buddy, Solomon's Art Shop
(my uber-talented best bud; will collaborate if you'd prefer either of our style, linework, or coloring (ex: my style, Solomon's colors; ex:Sol's style and my lines)
User Image My friend, Saxen's Art Shop
User Image Campire's Chibi-tacular Stuff
Shops I Like

User Image User Image shadow summoner ally's and Flower Paint's traditional art shop

🍩Baton pass: If I or one of the other artists fails a request, we've somewhat pacted to pass along the request to the other person with a discount. The original artist admits defeat, shows their failed mess of an attempt, informs the requester of the pass and they will then decide if they want to reconsider a different request or accept the new artist. One of us should be able to get it right, haha~ Payment gets transferred to the one that picked up the torch like a bro.
