SNAPS, YOU GUYS. IT'S ART.

Okay, but seriously, joking aside. This is an ART shop. Run by possibly one of the most boring people you'll ever see here, man.

RIGHT NOW!

November 22, 2006

We are now CLOSED for the holidays!

We'll reopen once all commissions are finished and trades completed.

COMMISSIONS PENDING.

COMMISSIONS DELETED AS OF 3-15-07

March 15, 2007

Seeing as I overwhelmed myself last fall with this, I've cleaned out all the commissions I previously had. Sorry, guys D: TOTALLY FEEL FREE TO REQUEST AGAIN.

But, things are different this time. Rather than just taking whatever comes, I'll now be having a certain number of slots open for each kind of request. So it's first come, first serve. Once the slots are filled for a category, you have to wait until another one opens up. D:

Here's how it goes:

SKETCHES

8 slots for Sketched Head Shots
6 slots for Sketched Bust Shots
4 slots for Sketched Torso Shots
2 slots for Sketched Full Body
5 slots for Sketched Chibi
2 slots for Sketched Couple

FINISHED

4 slots for Finished Head Shots
4 slots for Finished Torso Shots
2 slots for Finished Full Body 1 SLOT OPEN
- puddinmuffin -
4 slots for Finished Chibi
1 slot for Finished Couple

As requests for each category are made, I'll edit this and add the username onto it, that way people'll know how many other slots are open o/

ORDER FORM.

I realized very quickly I should have put this in here, but I forgot XD; When you PM me with an order, please use the following form from now on:

Username
Sketch or Finished
Headshot, Bust, Torso, or Full body
If you have a special request, put it here (chibi, couple, original character. If you have an original character, please provide a detailed description)
Coloured or not

I will reply to you with a price ESTIMATE and an estimated time of completion. ORDERS WILL NOT BE COMPLETED IMMEDIATELY. Also, the finished price may vary from the estimated, depending on the effort and time taken.

As for the actual money trade, for those of you ordering, I would ask that you please wait until you see the picture finished before you begin the trade. That way, if you decide you don't like something, I can change it, or the price can be lowered or raised from the original estimate.

ARTIST INFORMATION.

1. I work in a restaurant on the weekends from Friday to Monday with swing shifts. There's no telling when I'll get a break. The best time to catch me for commissions are between Monday and Thursday.

2. Just because I say I don't have time, please, by all means, send me a request over the weekend and I'll try to have it done by Monday.

3. If you decide you're more interested in just looking at my artwork rather than buying a commission, then please visit the following:

http://akat16.deviantart.com (originally all purpose -->NOW fanart) || http://scarring.deviantart.com (ORIGINAL artwork)

4. I generally respond better to nice requests rather than demands. RE: If you are rude to me, I CAN and WILL be rude back.

COMMISSION INFORMATION.

SKETCHES.

Sketches are the cheapest here. What are they? Basically, an unfinished work, uncoloured, quick doodle. Examples? Sure.

Example 1 Example 2

How about pricing? Let's see then.

Headshots

Example

Headshots, like the ones in the examples, will run for 200gold. Nice, cheap, but still nice sketches.

Bust Shots

(Example)

Simple, clean bust shots are from the chest up. Depending on the amount of detail in the picture, bust shots will run from 230gold to 500gold.

Torso Shots

(Example)

Torso shots aren't much more expensive than bust shots, running only at 500gold to 550gold, depending entirely on the amount of detail and the pose (if one is requested).

Full Body Sketches

(Example)

Full body sketches are the most expensive, but not a whole lot. Again, depending on the amount of detail in the avatar, they can run from 550gold to 750gold.

Exceptions can and will be made from commission to commission. Details will need to be discussed via PM.

FINISHED ART.

What a jump from sketches to finished art, eh? Anyway.

Finished art is the more expensive here and when you start getting up in the gold. I spend much more time on finished pieces, as well as the colouring, so you're paying more for the time and effort rather than the product.

Colouring

I generally don't like to colour, but for commissions, I'll go for it. The colouring medium will also determine the price. For commissions, I'll only do some lazy CG colouring, probably no shading. Just nice, flat colours.

Finished Headshots

(Example)

Ignoring the fact that that's a Naruto art ENTIRELY, just the finished headshot. It's a finished headshot, done in micron pen inking and prismacolor markers, touched up in Photoshop 7.0.

Headshots like this will cost from 800gold to 950gold.

Finished Bust/Torso Shots

(Example)

Finished and coloured bust/torso shots will cost you just a little bit more. Again, inked with micron pens, and colouring medium will depend on my mood unless you request a certain medium.

950gold to 1050gold.

Finished Full Body Shots

(Example is TBA)

Full body shots are one of the most expensive things in this shop. A normal full body finished piece can start at 1060gold all the way to 2000gold. I know it sounds like a lot, but when you take into account the amount of detail each avatar has, the time it takes to sketch, ink, then colour each thing, it builds up.

SPECIAL REQUESTS.

Want to make a special request? SURE! By all means!

Couple Shots

Example 1 Example 2

Not many examples of couple shots, but there are some. You can scour my galleries more if you want to find any others. Couple shots range between 1030gold and 1100gold.

You'll have to tell me if you're requesting a sketch or finished piece, what kind of piece (headshot, bust, torso, full body), and provide an image of both avatars.

Chibi Art

Example

Chibi art is really popular~ And feel free to request it! These are about as cheap as sketches. Again, please tell me whether you want a sketched chibi or a finished chibi. These will probably always turn out to be full body pieces. ....They're chibi, c'mon. Chibi art will go for 120gold to 200gold, depending on the amount of detail.

**EDIT Original Character Art

I didn't realize this was really popular! But if you'd like to request it, then DEFINITELY ask for it!

What I would need for this is a detailed description of the character (hair, clothes, eye colour, any accessories they have, etc). Also, just something I like to keep in mind while I'm sketching, if you have a personality worked out for the character, please tell me that as well and I may can work that into the piece. ;D

These, depending on the detail given, will range between 200gold to 2500gold.

Why such a wide range? Because you're more than welcome to ask for your OC as a chibi, or as a finished piece. It all depends on what you're asking for.

Yes, actually I do! As long as there's a detailed description and a little bit of personality explained, I'd be more than happy to.

Aw! Don't let that stop from a request! Believe me, as long as I've got a description to work with, I can do it for you. The personality is just something I like to keep in mind when I'm designing my own characters.
