Commissions (CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE):
OK so...I forgot that I was going to start up commissions like a while ago. But anyway, maybe if I open a few slots that will help me to get me out of my artist's block. I am just unsure of prices...suggestions? Comments? Questions? Plz?

EDIT:
So I'll open up some slots for now, details on commissioning me will be rather unofficial and unprofessional until I decide whether or not the demand for them is high enough to take it to the next level. If you REALLY want a commission, please please note me anyway and I will open a slot.

--Mature content: Partial nudity/Nudity is fine but will cost more depending on how much. Violence is fine, nothing charged.
+NUDITY INCLUDES: Sexual themed content. The expression and situation is key here. If you want your character making a sexy pose, there is an additional fee. How much your character is clothed will also determine the fee. Non-sexually themed nudes, however, go under the category of full nudity.
+NUDITY DOES NOT INCLUDE: For example, your character having fun at the beach in a bathing suit. When it does not pose sexual content, there will be no fee for having less clothing.

> Partial Nudity: Add 1-9 range on exposure amount.
+ Character with sexual content/situation/theme with or without part of clothing removed.

Sexually themed: [link]

Nonsexually themed: [link]

>Full: Add 10
+ Full body nudity (Please ask me about this in your note if you chose this.) Sexual or not sexual situation.

-Payment: Paypal only basis and if I know you IRL well enough, checks through mail.

-Style: I am currently on a NO fanart basis, apologies, I have a high preference to OCs. Nothing against fanart, my drawing hand doesn't like it lmao. Though I may open it up eventually, once I get a more practiced hand at drawing other's characters. They will also be drawn in my "style."

-References: Please specify exactly what you want, references are highly accepted though not required. A basic description, however, IS required in order for the completion of the commission to your liking.

-Requesting: Please send me everything via note. Also, please specify form of contact, whether it be through notes on dA or on AIM/MSN, after placing your order. Half of commission price is required to be paid before work on the commission can be started. Once commission is complete, remaining half is expected to be paid promptly. Failure to comply will result in blocking from my page and refusal of future commissions. If there's any questions or problems with that, or anything else, please comment. Thank you.
