I know

it can be

daunting to approach a stranger and

just, like,

hire them.

then

you don't

even know how

much art costs,

and there's 

negotiating,

and that

blows.

So, I

made this

fun guide

to make

things

easier!

So now,

if you wanna hire me to make you some art, all you gotta do is follow

the steps

below!

if I

did a half-

decent job,

you should

have your

own original art in no

time!

hiya!

Since

you're reading this, I'm gonna guess you're curious about commissions!

Luckily, for

you, I do

Those!

Well,

usually.

sometimes

I'm busy.

Step 1 - Pick a Size

Select the size you want for your commission! This will effect how much detail and content can fit into your piece. Think of "small" as a comic panel, "medium" as a half page, and "large" as a full page spread!

Small
$69

4.5x6" Bristol Board

postcard-sized.

 

Great for single-character portraits, but not so great for pieces with lots of detail, background elements, or characters.

WEBSITE ASSET - COMMISSIONS - MEDIUM SIZE - COLORS!.png
WEBSITE ASSET - COMMISSIONS - MEDIUM SIZE - LINES!!.png
Medium
$119

9x12" Bristol Board

A little larger than standard letter paper.

​

A good size for small or simple scenes. One to two characters fit comfortably here, and it lends itself to both portraits and full body shots well. A good balanced size, as all paper should be.

LArge
$179

11x17" Bristol Board

The stuff comics are made on. Equivalent to two sheets of letter taped together.

​

Great for big, explosive scenes, splash pages, covers, or group shots! Recommended if you want lots of elements in your piece.

Step 2: Pick what you Want!
WEBSITE ASSET - COMMISSIONS - STEP TWO - COLORS.png
Step 2 - Pick what you want

choose who you want me to draw! Each commission, by default, can include a single character, a simple/indicated background, and a line or two of lettering. I'll try to honor any requests I can, such as poses, camera angles and design suggestions, but will ultimately err on what I can make work on paper. There are some examples below, so you can get some ideas. if you'd like a bit more than the basic commission, see step 3!

Step 3: Additional Options!
WEBSITE ASSET - COMMISSIONS - STEP THREE - COLORS!.png
Step 3 - Additional options

Here you can add extra elements to your commission. The prices are determined by the size you picked, and will be added to the total cost of the piece. Choose as many as you like, but keep in mind that the more is added to the piece, the longer it may take to complete.

Shipping!

Digital file..................Free!

Domestic (Us)..................+$9

international...............+$19

by default, commissions are scanned in high-resolution and sent to the client as a .png file. if you also want the original artwork, pick this option!

Complex Lettering!

Small............................+$14

Medium..........................+$29

Large............................+$49

Anything more than a few words in a balloon or a note. block lettering, titles, lots of dialogue, blurbs, stuff like that. 

Extra Characters!

Small........+$29(2nd), $19(3+)

Medium.......+$49(2nd), $29(3+)

Large........+$79(2nd), $49(3+)

You can add as many characters to the piece as you want, but more characters means more time and energy spent. 

Character design!

Small............................+$19

Medium..........................+$29

Large............................+$39

if the character, item, or location you want me to draw doesn't have sufficient reference for me to call on, it takes extra time and work to design.

Extra Background!

Small............................+$19

Medium..........................+$49

Large............................+$89

Cities, perspective shots, lots of stars, basically everything that's any amount of detailed is going to take a lot of time and effort to draw in. 

Revisions!

First Revision..............Free!

2-4.........................+5% Each

5+........................+10% Each!

I try to be lenient on this one, but I do need to be compensated for extra time spent. Percentage is calculated after all revisions are done.

Digital Coloring!

Small............................+$29

Medium..........................+$59

Large............................+$99

Hey, now you can get your commission in color! if you pick this option, I can't send you a hard copy, simply because my printer isn't very good.

Likeness!

Small............................+$29

Medium..........................+$49

Large............................+$69

if I have to draw a real person's face from reference, this is gonna apply. it can be really time consuming to get faces right when I've never seen them in person.

Deadline!

Determined on a case-by-case basis.

​

if you need this piece by a certain point, please tell me and we can figure out if it can be done in my schedule and whether it will require me to prioritize the commission.

Step 4: Email Me!

if you'd like to add an element to your commission that I haven't listed here, let me know and we can figure out a price!

Something Missing?

Step 4 - Email me

Finally, follow the link below to the contact page and send me an email with what you'd like made, including all the options you picked. I'll get back to you as soon as I'm able so that we can start! Due to my fluctuating schedule, unless you have a specific deadline for the finished commission, I can't make any promises on how long it will take me to finish, though I almost always get it done within a month of starting. 

​

Some disclaimers:

The prices listed on this page are based on how difficult and time consuming each element would be for me execute. if I deem it necessary to do so, I may alter them to suit each individual piece. Don't worry, I won't do it without discussing it with the client first.

​

Payment for commissioned artwork will be due up-front before I start working on it, up to $200. if the piece costs more than that, the remainder of the fee will be due upon completion, along with any additional fees for alterations and revisions. Payments are accepted through Venmo and PayPal. 

​

I reserve the right to refuse any commission I see fit. I'm almost certainly going to turn down anything pornographic, racially/culturally insensitive, racist, homophobic, transphobic, or any kind of boot-licky. Unless explicitly agreed upon elsewhere, I retain all rights to any artwork I create.

​

Everything written here applies strictly to private/personal commissioned artwork. if you are interested in hiring me for professional work, you can get in touch with me the contact tab.
