So… you want to commission me? Great! I could really use the money. No, seriously, I need to pay the bills!

Now, below the break is going to be a lot of tl;dr stuff about the process, what you get and all that rot… but to summarize it:
You contact me via DA note, Tumblr message or email and tell me what you want
I accept the work and you send me the payment via PayPal
Once I get payment I begin work.
I will send a WiP for corrections (does not apply to sketches) at the appropriate stages and will continue work after receiving feedback.
When work is complete, I will send high-resolution images and *.psd files.
If you asked for originals, I will send them out on the next Monday or Friday

Extra information and stuff
What I will do – almost anything really. I guess a better explanation would be what I won’t do. I am willing to do some ecchi stuff, but no hentai of any sort. It is not that I am prudish, I just don’t feel comfortable drawing smut. A basic rule of thumb is that if it will require an ‘Adult’ filter on DeviantArt, I may not do it…but because different people have different perspectives on this sort of thing, do not hesitate to ask. It is entirely possible that depending on the subject matter I will do it with no problems or that I could be talked into doing it for an extra charge or something.

Backgrounds – unless a background of some sort is requested, I may add one free of charge if I want to. If a background is requested, a simple background will be included free of charge. If you want something more than a basic background, let me know and we can talk.

Turnaround Times - I can’t see the future and sometimes silly things happen that take me away from my desk and/or computer or otherwise interrupt my ability to work. In addition, I cannot predict or anticipate workload. I mean if I get 3 or 4 digital color drawings, it is likely that there will be delays due to corrections and the like. That said, here are the expected turnaround times:
- Sketches – Your work *should* be done the same day (likely within an hour or two) of receiving payment and will be emailed to you when complete.
- Drawings – Your work *should* be done the same day (likely within an hour or two) of receiving the correction guidelines and will be emailed to you when complete.
- Digital Ink – Your work *should* be done the same day of receiving the final correction guidelines and will be emailed to you when complete
- Digital Color – Your work *should* be done the same day of receiving the final correction guidelines and will be emailed to you when complete

Mailing – In an effort to avoid multiple runs to the post office, I will be making mail runs on Mondays and Fridays. If necessary, I can also go on Wednesdays as well. Again, mailed images will include all thumbnails, sketches and WIPs.

Payment – At this time, I am only accepting PayPal (I will send this information when I accept the work) with payment in advance. I have heard a lot of horror stories about checks and I am not sure how I can process credit cards through PayPal (or if it’s possible in the first place!). Work will begin when I receive payment.

Communication – I will do my best to be as open and communicative with you as possible throughout the entire process. In addition, feel free to contact me via AIM, Skype, Steam, DeviantArt note, Tumblr message or email.
