Commission base prices for those who are curious! Please note that these are BASE prices. If your character has five hundred accessories, twenty fur colours, horns, and bat wings, expect the prices to be a tad bit higher. Please note me if you are interested in a commission, and we can discuss a more specific price.

Commission prices are in US dollars.

What I'm decent at:
*Feral or natural animals (including pets)
*Anthropomorphic/furry
*Most machinery and equipment
*Natural Backgrounds
*Most fantasy critters

What I suck at:
*People. Commission them at your own risk.
*Very realistic mechs

What I won't do:
*Graphic sexual situations
*Overly religious or political themes
*Hate propaganda or other offensive themes
*Most trademarked characters, unless the character is altered in some form. For example, I would draw Final Fantasy VII's Sephiroth as a wolf, but not an outright copy of Simba.
*Another person's personal character without their permission, unless it is a gift for them.

Please note that I reserve the right to reject a commission.

Fancy Paper Traditional
I have a HUGE pile of fancy papers and other items to use with traditional work! Since there is little to no background work for me, these are a cheaper alternative to the above traditional commissions. I don't charge extra for cutting and pasting the image. Some of the papers I have include:

*Matte metallic finishes
*Paper with leaves, flowers, or flecks of paper money embedded
*Glittery and shiny paper
*Semi-transparent paper
*Hand-pressed bark paper
*LOADS of paper printed in various designs such as flowers, fairies, Oriental patterns, maps, forests, water... well, name it, I've probably got it!
*Tons of other textures. Just ask me what I have in stock, or with a specific request
*Also, I have small gems, ribbons, stickers, and pressed flowers that I can add to the image, as well as glittery, pearl, and metallic paints.

These are typically $25 per character, each additional character $10.

Totem Animal Commission
This is something that could potentially be fun. For no extra charge, I will add your totem animal into any of the above commissions. The only catch is that I will choose your totem animal. Please be aware that this may involve me asking you to take an online personality test and/or answer some questions about yourself. I do respect boundaries and will not ask you anything uncomfortable or personal (I'll do my best, anyway). I just have an interest in totem animals and would love to do an analysis sometime! Please note that you can not change your totem once s/he has been chosen. Please note me for any questions you might have.

PAYMENT, SHIPPING, AND OTHER BORING CRAP

Payment
Payment through money order is preferred, but my partner is setting up a paypal account. Please note that use of paypal may incur additional charges and/or limitations on shipping. I've been screwed by Paypal before, so I'm wary of using them. Just note me, and we will work something out. If you are Canadian, I can take personal cheque, which takes ten days to clear.

I can accept payment either up front or in two portions as follows: at least half of the total cost less shipping up front before any work is done. The rest of the balance is to be paid upon successful completion, before the work is mailed (if traditional work is to be shipped) or the original file is e-mailed and posted (for digital work).

Shipping
I will calculate shipping to your location, depending on what mailing method you prefer. Please keep in mind I live in Canada. Shipping within my country or to the states is relatively cheap, overseas can be a bit more pricey depending on how quickly you would like to receive your work.

I am not responsible for loss or mutilation by the post office. As such, it is up to you to determine whether you want insurance or not. If you are paying through paypal, your items MUST BE INSURED.

Other Random Things You Might Want to Know

I will give you an approximate completion time when you are commissioning me. If you need something by a specific date, I'm sure that we can work something out.

I will keep you updated on progress. The first major step is the sketch. You must approve the sketch before I continue working on your image. After the sketch's approval, I can not make any major changes to the character(s). Same goes for the chosen colour scheme, if you want a traditional piece.

You have every right to ask for progress reports or progress scans as I go.

Thanks for reading! If you have any questions or are interested in a commission, please note me!
