Hi! Thank you for the lovely comment. In answer to your query, yes I have been doing commisions for the past year and a half now.

Again thank you.

    I charge on a case by case basis when it comes to private commisions depending on how much detail and how complicated the piece is and also on the deadline. Otherwise the gaming companies I usuall draw for pay anywhere from 150 to $550 dollars for a piece.

        Believe me it came as a shock to me when I got my first offer amount on a commision from a gaming company. I still feel somewhat taken aback when I get a commsion.

            Strictly graphite or charcoal art although they do keep asking for ink and color.

                You my friend hit it right on the nose on that one. I had one client actualy ask me to do a full blown oil painting after I mentioned that I dabbled with oils at one time.

                  *dies* NO FRIGGIN WAY. Oils is NOT something you buy when the person doesn't know how to use them properly yet. They are sooooo difficult to get the colours right!!! Oil anything makes me go nuts.

                  Curious- what does a $150 commish buy you?

                    Look through my gallery and check out my Scal Mail piece. Also the size of the piece is a factor.
