$500 -- Character Design
Includes: coloured 3-point character turnaround and colour chart.
- This will generally take 14 to 28 days, depending on speed of email responses to questions and number of additional materials requested.
- Design will begin with a session of questions and back-and-forth between artist and you, the client, to figure out what direction to go with the character.
- Communication will continue throughout the course of the design process, but generally will slow down once all details have been finalized and the only work to be done is clean-up and colour.
- Clients may choose to include one alternate colour variant, free of charge.Additions: Props* (+$50/ea.), Costume Breakdown (+$50), Alternate Outfit (+$50), Additional colour variant(s) (+$10), Pinup/Character Illustration (+$100)** Prop includes three different views of the prop aligned on a single sheet.All work will be packaged as a 72dpi .PNG, 300dpi .PNG, merged 300dpi .PSD and a 300dpi .PSD with layers intact.

More Examples:
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How do I pay? | All commissions will be paid via Paypal invoicing. |
| I don't have a Paypal | I cannot take your commission. |
| I can't pay the full price now, can I pay later or in installments? | You may either pay the full price upfront, or pay half now and half upon completion of the work. |
| Can I get a discount? | Prices are non-negotiable |
| How many commissions are you taking? | Not more than 5, I think. This might change. |
| How do I know you've received my application? | You will get an automated confirmation email when you complete the Google Form, I will send out confirmation or rejection emails as soon as I'm able and in-order-of-receipt. If you don't respond within the first 48 hours of receipt, I'll contact the next person in line. |
| Do I need references? | If you DON'T have any reference already, it's easier on me if you have a mood board, pinterest board, faceclaim, voice claim, anything already set-up to share with me. It is not a requirement, but it does speed up the process and help clarify your vision. |
| Reference? For a design commission? | It's easier to work from a visual photo pin-board than from written descriptions! I don't expect you to have a design for the character already, but I do hope to have some sort of visual material to pull from. |
| What's a good reference? | Anything! An actor/model for face, maybe photos of a body type you have in mind, a cool rock that gives you the character's Vibe. Leaves? Any sort of inspirational or physically-descriptive material helps. |
| Free additional colour variants? | One free, since I know sometimes we want more than one colour scheme for our characters! And it's hard to settle on one, sometimes. Basically, you get one bonus coloring pass, if you want it. |
| Pinup? Character Illustration? | Those neat action-shots of the characters listed in the gallery. The base price covers only a 3-point turnaround, not a neat, shaded illustration. |
| What if I lose the final files? | All finished and in-progress commissions are uploaded to a google drive folder, so long as you have the link or the same google profile, you will be able to access and re-download the files as needed. |
| I have a question that isn't listed here | Email your question to me at [email protected] |
