Commission Request and Inquiries Form

Welcome! Commissions are open!

►Single Character (Sepia/Grayscale): US$280. This price includes things such as: animal companions, mounts, familiars, wings and intricate costumes! It also includes limited simple bases/backgrounds and/or pre-drawn backgrounds (see below). If you have a very complicated request. or a want a full custom background, we can negotiate an additional fee. But normally this won’t be necessary. All of the examples on this page would cost just the base price.

►Single Character (Full Color): US$380. Same as above - just in full-color. Any of the pre-drawn backgrounds below can be colorized for no extra fee.

►Adventure Party (Sepia/Grayscale): US$200 per character (minimum 3). Hire me to draw the whole squad! Same as above - companions, mounts, familiars, wings, complicated costumes are all fine to include. I draw each character separately the same as I would for a single character commission. I also arrange the party in a 16” x 20” group shot on a pre-drawn background (examples below). Original backgrounds and complicated requests may cost extra.

See the FAQ below if you’re looking for more info.

Name *
Please describe very briefly what you're looking for. I don't need detailed character descriptions yet, just a general idea of what you'd like me to draw. E.g. "I'd like a single character, no background. She's a Tiefling barbarian with a wolf companion".
Thank you!

Waiting list
The wait time is currently about 2 months, hopefully less.

Payment methods
You can now pay with PayPal or major credit card. You can alternatively use E-transfer if you live in Canada and/or your bank allows. Once I have your character description I will review, and give you a final price. For single characters I require payment in full before starting the art. For adventure parties I require half up front, and the other half once I complete the rough sketches to your satisfaction. If you’re not comfortable with this I understand, but just know that I’ve had over 200 satisfied customers so far!

Image Sizes/Formats
I’m currently only offering one size for commission characters: 8” x 10”. Technically 8.25” x 10.25” - I added an extra 1/8 inch around the edge to make framing a little easier. You will be sent high-resolution files of the art in .jpeg and .tiff formats. Adventure party size is 16” x 20”. Some clients have printed out their art at larger-than %100 size and have had good results.

“Will I be able to ask for changes to the art?”
Yes. When I start your drawing, I will first do a rough sketch and present it for your approval. At that time you will be able to ask for adjustments to the design. Once I’ve completed the drawing, further changes may be difficult or impossible, and I may need to charge an additional fee. But that rarely happens as all your adjustment requests get sorted out during the rough-sketch phase.

“How much for a bust?”
It is the same price as a full-figure drawing. In the same 8” x 10” format. But the drawing is zoomed-in so there will be more fine details showing. If your character has nothing special going on below the belt ;p why not consider a drawing of the upper body only?!

“Can you draw my sci-fi/horror/Warhammer 40k/cyberpunk/steampunk/post-apocalyptic/historical/super hero character?!”
Absolutely! D&D characters have become my niche, but I’m more than happy to branch out from that.

“Can you draw my homebrew monster, or big bad evil guy?”
Absolutely! It will normally cost the exact same as a character drawing, unless there are special considerations. Let me know what you’re hoping to get and I’ll let you know.

“Can you draw my sexy, nude, furry, NSFW character?”
Sure! Let me know what you’re looking for, and I’ll tell you whether or not I’m blushing too hard to draw it properly.

“Can you draw our Dungeon Master?”
Not really. Normally I don’t like to draw players in their civilian clothes. I can draw a likeness of an actual person if proper photo reference is provided. But, to represent the DM, I’d rather draw his/her primary NPC or BBEG.
