Are you looking to bring your original characters (OCs), fan art dreams, or comic book ideas to life? Look no further! I am opening commissions for a variety of art styles and projects, from character design and illustrations to full-fledged comics. My goal is to collaborate with you to create compelling visuals that perfectly capture your vision. I am passionate about helping you tell your stories through art, and I am committed to delivering high-quality work that exceeds your expectations. Whether you have a detailed concept or just a spark of an idea, I am here to help you develop it into a stunning piece of art.
What are Open Commissions?
Open commissions signify that an artist is currently accepting requests for custom artwork. This means you can directly commission me to create a piece tailored to your specific needs and desires. This differs from adopting pre-made designs or purchasing existing artwork; with commissions, you're involved in the creative process, guiding the artist to bring your unique vision to life. The beauty of commissioning art lies in the collaborative journey. You, as the client, have the opportunity to directly communicate your ideas, preferences, and expectations to the artist. This ensures that the final piece is not only visually appealing but also deeply personal and meaningful. Think of it as building a bespoke artwork, where every detail is carefully considered and crafted to your satisfaction. Whether you're seeking a portrait of a beloved character, a dynamic illustration for your tabletop game, or a sequential narrative for your personal comic project, commissioning empowers you to materialize your artistic aspirations. This personalized approach to art creation makes commissions an excellent choice for individuals seeking unique gifts, visual representations of their original characters, or simply a piece of art that resonates with their soul. The process typically involves discussing your concept with the artist, providing reference materials, agreeing on a price and timeline, and receiving regular updates as the artwork progresses. This allows you to provide feedback and ensure that the final piece aligns perfectly with your vision. The result is a one-of-a-kind artwork that you'll cherish for years to come.
Character Design Commissions
Do you need a character design for your story, game, or personal project? I can help you create a unique and memorable character that embodies your vision. I specialize in designing characters with distinct personalities, compelling backstories, and visually striking appearances. My character design services include: initial concept sketches, multiple iterations and refinements, detailed character sheets with front, side, and back views, color palettes, and descriptions of personality and traits. The character design process begins with a thorough consultation to understand your needs and preferences. We'll discuss the character's role in your story, their personality, their visual style, and any specific features you have in mind. I encourage you to provide reference materials, such as images of characters you admire or descriptions of the world your character inhabits. This helps me get a clear understanding of your vision and ensures that the final design aligns with your expectations. From there, I'll create a series of initial concept sketches, exploring different poses, expressions, and visual elements. You'll have the opportunity to review these sketches and provide feedback, which I'll use to refine the design further. This iterative process ensures that we're on the right track and that the character is developing in a way that you're excited about. Once we've settled on a final design, I'll create a detailed character sheet that includes multiple views of the character, a color palette, and a description of their personality and traits. This character sheet serves as a comprehensive guide for future artists or collaborators who may be working with your character, ensuring consistency in their visual representation. Whether you need a heroic protagonist, a cunning villain, or a quirky sidekick, I'm confident that I can bring your character to life with a design that's both visually appealing and deeply resonant. My passion lies in creating characters that not only look good but also tell a story, characters that viewers can connect with on an emotional level. Let's collaborate and create a character that will capture the hearts and minds of your audience.
Original Character (OC) Commissions
Bring your Original Characters (OCs) to life with a custom commission! Whether you have a fully fleshed-out character or just a spark of an idea, I can help you visualize your OC in stunning detail. I am passionate about collaborating with creators to translate their mental images into tangible artwork. The beauty of commissioning OC art lies in the ability to finally see your beloved creations come to life in a visual form. After pouring hours into developing their backstories, personalities, and appearances, seeing them rendered in a professional artwork can be incredibly rewarding. It's like watching your characters step out of your imagination and into the real world. I offer a range of OC commission options, from simple character portraits to full illustrations with dynamic poses and backgrounds. If you have a story or setting in mind for your OC, I can create artwork that reflects that world and helps to tell their story. We can collaborate to develop unique poses, expressions, and outfits that perfectly capture your character's personality and essence. Do you have a favorite artist whose style you admire? I can also work to emulate specific art styles to create a piece that feels cohesive with your overall vision. The process of commissioning an OC artwork typically begins with a detailed discussion of your character. I'll ask you questions about their personality, appearance, backstory, and any specific elements you'd like to see in the artwork. It's helpful to provide reference materials, such as written descriptions, mood boards, or existing artwork of similar characters. The more information you can provide, the better I can understand your vision and bring it to life. Once we've established a clear direction, I'll create a series of initial sketches to explore different ideas and compositions. You'll have the opportunity to review these sketches and provide feedback, allowing us to refine the design until it perfectly captures your OC. From there, I'll move on to the final rendering, adding details, colors, and textures to create a polished and professional artwork. Throughout the process, I'll keep you updated on my progress and welcome your feedback. I believe that communication is key to a successful commission, and I'm committed to working closely with you to create an artwork that you'll cherish. Let's collaborate and bring your OCs to life in a way that you never thought possible!
FanArt Commissions
Do you have a favorite character from a movie, game, or book that you'd love to see in a unique piece of art? My FanArt commissions are perfect for celebrating your beloved characters and universes. I can create stunning illustrations of your favorite characters in dynamic poses, emotional scenes, or original scenarios. I am passionate about capturing the essence of the characters and worlds that inspire us. Fan art is more than just drawing a beloved character; it's about expressing your connection to a story, a universe, or an idea. It's a way of celebrating the characters and worlds that resonate with you and sharing your passion with others. When you commission fan art, you're not just buying a piece of art; you're investing in a personalized expression of your fandom. My goal with fan art commissions is to create artwork that not only looks beautiful but also captures the spirit of the source material. I take the time to understand the character's personality, their motivations, and their relationships with other characters in the story. I want the artwork to feel authentic and true to the source material while also adding my own artistic flair. The possibilities for fan art commissions are endless. You might want a portrait of your favorite character, a dynamic action scene, or a scene that never happened in the original story but that you've always imagined. You could even commission a crossover piece, bringing together characters from different universes. The process of commissioning fan art is similar to commissioning any other type of art. It begins with a discussion of your vision, including the character you want to see, the pose, the expression, and the overall mood of the piece. Reference materials are especially helpful in fan art commissions, as they allow me to accurately capture the character's likeness and costume. I'll also ask about your personal connection to the character and the story, as this helps me understand what makes them special to you. From there, I'll create a series of sketches to explore different ideas and compositions. You'll have the opportunity to review these sketches and provide feedback, ensuring that the final artwork aligns with your vision. Once we've settled on a design, I'll move on to the final rendering, paying close attention to details like lighting, texture, and color. I want the artwork to be visually stunning and to capture the essence of the character in a way that you'll cherish. Let's collaborate and create a fan art piece that truly celebrates your fandom.
Comic Commissions
Do you have a story you've always wanted to tell in comic form? I offer comic commissions for a variety of projects, from short stories and character introductions to full-length comics and graphic novels. Let's work together to bring your story to life with sequential art! Comic commissions are a unique and powerful way to tell a story. Unlike a single illustration, comics use a series of images to create a narrative, allowing for greater depth of character development, plot progression, and emotional impact. Whether you have a complex epic tale or a simple slice-of-life story, comics can be a dynamic and engaging medium for expression. The beauty of comic commissions lies in the collaborative nature of the process. As the writer, you provide the story, and as the artist, I bring it to life visually. We'll work together to develop the characters, the setting, the pacing, and the overall tone of the comic. It's a partnership that combines your creative vision with my artistic skills to create something truly special. My comic commission services include: script consultation and storyboarding, character design and background design, penciling, inking, coloring, and lettering. The comic creation process typically begins with a script. If you have a fully written script, I'll review it and provide feedback on its suitability for a comic format. If you only have a story outline or a concept, I can help you develop it into a script that's both engaging and visually compelling. From there, we'll move on to storyboarding, which involves creating a rough visual layout of each page. This is a crucial step in the process, as it allows us to plan the pacing of the story, the composition of each panel, and the overall flow of the narrative. Once the storyboard is approved, I'll begin the process of creating the final artwork. This involves penciling (creating the initial line art), inking (adding depth and definition to the lines), coloring (adding color and shading), and lettering (adding dialogue and sound effects). Each step requires careful attention to detail and a commitment to bringing the story to life in a visually dynamic way. Whether you're creating a personal comic project, a promotional comic for your business, or a gift for a loved one, comic commissions are a powerful way to tell your story. Let's collaborate and create a comic that you'll be proud to share with the world.
Pricing and Process
My pricing varies depending on the complexity of the project, the level of detail required, and the number of characters involved. I offer flexible payment options and am happy to discuss your budget. The commission process typically involves: Initial consultation to discuss your project and vision, price quote and agreement, initial sketches and revisions, final artwork delivery in high-resolution digital format. I am committed to providing transparent pricing and a clear and straightforward process. I believe that communication is key to a successful commission, and I'll keep you updated on my progress throughout the project. I'm also open to feedback and revisions to ensure that the final artwork meets your expectations. The initial consultation is a crucial step in the commission process. This is where we'll discuss your project in detail, including your vision, your goals, and your budget. I'll ask you questions about your characters, your story, your preferred art style, and any specific elements you'd like to see in the artwork. The more information you can provide, the better I can understand your needs and create a piece that you'll love. After the initial consultation, I'll provide you with a price quote and a timeline for the project. If you're happy with the quote, we'll sign an agreement that outlines the terms of the commission, including the price, the delivery date, and the usage rights for the artwork. Once the agreement is signed, I'll begin working on the initial sketches. These sketches are rough drafts of the artwork that allow us to explore different ideas and compositions. You'll have the opportunity to review these sketches and provide feedback, and I'll revise them based on your input. This iterative process ensures that we're on the right track and that the final artwork aligns with your vision. Once the sketches are approved, I'll move on to the final rendering, adding details, colors, and textures to create a polished and professional artwork. I'll keep you updated on my progress throughout this stage and welcome your feedback. Finally, the artwork is delivered to you in a high-resolution digital format, ready for you to use as you wish. I'm dedicated to providing a positive and collaborative commission experience. My goal is to create artwork that you'll cherish for years to come.
