EMERGENCY COMMISSION-ERS NEEDED!! LOWER RATES!!

Tue Mar 25, 2008, 11:34 AM
EMERGENCY COMMISSION-ERS NEEDED!! LOWER RATES!!:

Here is the story.. I saved some money for tax preparation this year and .. well.. underestimated how much it would cost as I did not remember that last year I had a coupon or such. Thus.. I ended up just a -bit- short for my upcoming bills..

SO - I'm offering 2-3 slots for Emergency Commissions.. I haven't done personal commissions in ages and am not sure if I'll be bringing them back in the future, so if you'd like art done by me - this is a good opportunity for you! ^^;

Also, these slots are for considerably less than my usual rates.. Only $40 for a 2-3 character, full-body shot, digitally-painted piece with a simple to moderately-detailed background! : O

The reason for the reduced rate is because: A. I need the money -now- when I usually only accept payment after the piece is done, and B. I really -REALLY- appreciate it!

Here's how it'll have to work..

1. Note me TODAY if you are interested. Please include a description of what you would like done. (Please read the will and won't list below before noting.)

2. Once I note you back with the O.K., send the $40 to my paypal account. (It's just my normal gmail address - I'll note it to you if you don't have it.) THIS MUST BE PAID BY 4PM EST WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26TH!! (So I have time to transfer it to my bank account before bills are due..)

3. I give you my sincere thanks and we get to work on any additional details of your desired image. I like to work with a lot of details so be as descriptive and include as many reference images as you like!

4. I do the image for you! Note, I will probably have to start after March 31st as I have work I need to get done before then, but after that, I'll be sure to get it done within the next few weeks - as soon as I can. : )

5. When the image is done, I can make it into a print if you'd like. I can set it up to the base cost for when you purchase it and then either raise it to a normal print rate or take down the print afterwards - completely up to you. I just ask that I reserve the right to post the image in my portfolios - crediting you for the character ownership, of course.

Slots:
1. :iconaceinit: - Details pending. (Thanks again, I always love working with your characters!! : ) ~ <3)
2. [Still Open]
3. [Still Open]

What I will and won't do:
What I WILL do: Any original characters who do not fall under things in the "wont do" list you come up with, including fan oc's - providing they -are- completely original. (I.e, if you made a Star Wars character that's a jedi with wavy purple hair named Jedera, that's fine. Making Obi-wan's evil twin or 'some guy who happens to look just like Han Solo', would not be fine. ; ) )

Also, in your pose description, be as specific and active as you like! I really enjoy playing with poses, so please feel free to have some crazy fun poses for me to try out if you like! Don't feel limited to any sort of standard character design shot poses, ok? : )

What I WON'T do:
- I will NOT do pornographic imagery. I also prefer to not do even artistic nudity unless it really -is- artistic nudity and not soft-core porn.. You characters -can-, however, be somewhat scantily-clad and in somewhat of a hot pose - just not 'getting it on' with other characters - as it were. (Romantic kissing, etc. is fine - hopefully you get what I mean.)
- Ok, here are a couple "wont's" that I mean absolutely no offense by, but these are just not my thing:
1. No traditional witches/warlocks/Harry Potter-esque characters. Other types of magic users are fine. Lodoss War/Lord of the Rings Elves/Legend of Zelda-types are completely fine. (Yes, succubi are fine. - I know that's a weird line, just.. is how I feel.)
2. I prefer to not have to do romantic scenes of gay/lesbian couples. As I said before - absolutely no offense meant - I'd just prefer to not.

So, please let me know if you are interested A.S.A.P.

Thanks guys - I hope you are having a wonderful week!




Also,

Still Looking for work otherwise..:

You will notice some images are targeted at a specific studio. I would love to be a part of that studio and have made a portfolio for said studio at [link]

However, I am definitely willing to work for a professional studio other than UDON. If you represent such a studio, please note me if you have a project you would like for me to work on. I always take great pride in providing the most professional-quality work I can and have never broken a deadline. (You can ask Michael Westerman, CEO of Americanime Productions about that. He is referenced on my resume at the link above.)

[If a representative from UDON studio (I can dream) or another interested and stable professional comic/illustration studio has visited this gallery and is interested in hiring me, please feel free to take a look at my portfolio and resume via the link above. That portfolio has an additional section with of Sequential work samples - both professional and personal. I also have a cover letter to send you if you are interested.]



P.S. - Be sure to check out :iconclayscence:'s contest - you can find details here: [link] : ) <-- Now in the judging/voting phase.

Payment sent. Let me know if it doesn't go through. I'll send the description for the commission as soon as I have enough time off to sit down and write it up.

And if you still have space, I may take one more as well.

Oh - sorry I didn't respond to this sooner. I was just checking the top of the comments here..

If you would like another one, there's still a spot and it would of course be appreciated. (And though I said the deadline for pay was 4pm, it should be alright any time before midnight, I was just picking a time I knew I'd be able to come on and check before too late since I have to go in to work for a few hours tonight.)

And yes, the last payment went through just fine. Thank you so, so much! (And thank you for figuring in the paypal fee. Not many people think to do that - thank you!)

In response to your other comment - just note me the description when you have time to write it out - I look forward to it! You know I always enjoy working with your stories and characters. : )
