Commissions
If you're reading this then you're interested in commissioning some artwork or character designs! :D Please read everything, and I am contactable on DeviantArt if you have any questions that aren't answered here.Please note: I've tried to provide prices in three fairly common currencies. They were correct conversions at the time of updating (July 2023), and I have rounded up to closest fair numbers. Please be aware that I am trialling Artistree for commission management, which adds platform fees during the payment process. So the final price you pay will be slightly higher than what is seen here.==STATUS: Open ==

Contact
Best place to find me will be DeviantArt or ToyHouse, where I can be messaged with any questions that might not be covered here :)So what about 18+ art and themes?
This might be an option in the future, which will likely have its own landing page and a slightly different set of TOS. I am not an 'adult artist' by any stretch but I can offer 'romantic erotica' if thats what people might be interested in.Why don't you draw [insert fandom, theme, specific media reference here]?
As mentioned briefly above, its an artistic capability thing. I don't want to take on a commission and then find that I can't create the best possible outcome. So I'd rather be honest upfront :) If you'd like an established character/fan-character drawn in my style then I can do that, but right now, I don't want to offer artwork where characters have to match an established style.What about a black&white or lineart option?
Potentially in the future. A lot will depend on how popular the commissions become and what people want. I am flexible and happy to take feedback, and as mentioned, I've tried to go for options that people might be looking for more regularly rather than offering everything under the sun. If people get in touch and say 'you should deffo offer lineart only for this amount' then I will take it on board :DWhat about artwork that is intended for ARPG?
Good question. I appreciate that artwork of this nature has to fit an intended purpose, like a prompt or story event, and also has requirements to meet. There is a possibility that I can introduce a special pricing structure for ARPG work in the future, but it would come with that addendum that it will not be the same as commissioning a fully detailed pic.Are you open to trades (art, character, etc)?
I most certainly am. Depending on my workload, I do like to leave some room for trades as I do love to receive artwork of my characters, and I also like certain adoptables/closed species too :) Simply drop me a message on ToyHouse or DeviantArt to start a discussion. Please don't be offended if I don't accept a trade though, I have to balance the time taken to make art with what is being offered, etc.
