Prices and Main Menu

Overview, Standard Commissions

Keys: I = Icons, HB = Halfbody, FB = Fullbody

For additional keys, please see my wiki.

All commission types are now CS (Colored Sketches) at base price, an additional fee is required if line art is desired. Prices may vary depending on complexity.

Type Base Line art fee PWYW rendering (minimum)
Icons $35 $10-15 $10+
HB $65 $15-20 $15+
FB $95 $20-25 $20+

Line art fee may increase if props or other details are added, these are TBD (to be determined) based on a number of factors.

PWYW (pay-what-you-want) rendering have a minimum required to differentiate from regular tips. Tips below the minimum will only have slightly cleaner sketch but none of the rendering. This typically works in 3 tiers; - Basic - Custom - Spectacular, Example 2

This is 100% optional, and based on tipping and/or membership support. Please ask up front if you are interesting in this.

Define, Custom Backgrounds

All commissions come with a basic background, free of charge. Transparent backgrounds can be provided when asked and are also free of charge.

  • Tiled patterns | example
  • Abstract shapes and patterns | example
  • Skies, clouds, weather or season themed scenes like lightning bolts, rain, snow, auroras, falling leaves etc | example

Define, General Illustration

  • Detailed illustration style scenery such as city-scapes, indoor or outdoor environments and scenery | example
  • Scenes that may require a foreground, even if the background itself is blurry
  • Scenes and environments that directly interacts with the character(s) such as furniture

Drawing Restrictions

Keep in mind I am a SFW artist! so genitals will never be drawn.

I have a list of my preferred themes or prompts listed; on my Wiki here if you’d like to see a more detailed list. If you want a TLDR of what I loathe drawing, please read this post

Encouraged Prompts and Themes

Overview of Themes

We have a nice little starter list of a few common themes we enjoy doing. This is not an exhaustive list but it’s meant to give an idea of some themes I genuinely enjoy working with. If you as a client (commissioner) do not have a solid idea, you are always more than welcome to pick a theme here!

A helpful curated list by, the artist:

  1. Coffee / tea or hot cozy drinks | Example
  2. Harnesses / muzzles or reigns | Example
  3. Drool / blood like substances or slime | Example (sfw)
  4. Aggressive / manic / crazy expression and Mawshots especially if there’s sharp teeth! | Example
  5. Weird or unique species / monsters (canine and laggomorph hybrids exempt.) | Example
  6. Hypno eyes | Example
  7. Bones / decay / nature and bugs!
  8. OCCULT! anything witchy or related to the occult | Example
  9. HALLOWEEN even off season! | Example
  10. Candy gore / Light gore | Example

Do keep in mind I am a SFW artist. I don’t shy away from mature themes (clearly.) So suggestive stuff is totally okay. Even some artistic nudity or pin-ups within reason.

Just ask if you’re unsure! Reminder that we accept payment via Paypal invoices, and now Ko-Fi!

Additional Notes

Theme of the Week

A special weekly event hosted exclusively on Telegram. This will be various themes selected by the artist, and will have special priority and feature a minimum of one free bonus add-on (also selected by the artist.) These will be limited slots, and not all entries will be accepted.

Character Re-designs and Adopts

There is a special promotion (off the menu) for anyone who asks me to re-design a character they own, or if you’ve ever adopted a character design from me. If you choose to commission me with these characters, I will offer a 3-tier special offer. Think of this like a “stamp card” you get 3 cool upgrades. You also have priority for Theme of the Weeks, if you want to participate in that. Please ask about this if you are interested.

Ready to commission me? Or want to contact me and inquire about a commission? Please follow the instructions in the dropdown menu below.

Contact me on Telegram for the fastest responce time. If you don't have Telegram, you can DM me on Mastodon, Bluesky, or Ko-Fi

Ko-Fi DM is a little odd. It says you have to pay to DM me, but this is false. You can inquire about a commission for free, without sending me any money. Sadly Ko-Fi keeps changing things, and they dont document anything, so you're on your own there.
Commission Rules and Guide

🗨️ How to Commission?

📋 I will need 3 main things, from you:

  1. - Your character ref. (you don’t need a whole ref sheet. Just share what you got, or be very detailed if you don’t have any art yet. I will automatically deny AI references.)
  2. - Your valid paypal email.
  3. - Details about your commission. (do you want an icon, half-body? What expression do you want? What’s the vibe? Etc.)

You can select from our prompts if you prefer us to choose for you. Or let us surprise you, and grant us full creative freedom!

Don’t forget to read Terms of Service and let me know that you read it, and agree to it. If you have questions about it please ask before finalizing payment. Need to know how that works? I will provide a Example Invoice before sending out the official invoice to make sure all details are correct.

end.
