Full payment is required upfront before any work will begin• For Illustration pieces only: I will send you at least one WIP sketch to make sure the art is headed in the right direction• The process is not first come first served. Pieces are chosen based on how well I feel I can portray them and how much they inspire meThank you for reading!
What to Include in your Commission Application:Your local currency (so I can send the appropriate bank details)Commission Type
Character Name
Race
Age (or the human equivalent for elves and elder races). Broad estimates are fine eg 20s, 30s
ClassA concise summary of personality and desired expression. For me this is one of the most important things for deciding if and how to portray a character! A sentence or two is all that's needed. It's perfectly ok to ask for a neutral expression.
You can add a little backstory if it helps you frame the mood, but no big paragraphs of text please!AppearanceSkin colour
Eye colour
Hair colour and style
Accessories
Scars
Outfit
Pose (only for bigger pieces and illustrations)References
• These might include previous art you've commissioned, Pinterest images, screenshots of characters in-game, WoW dressing room links, or other art that inspired you (but don't ever use someone else's OC design as your own! It's a huge no-no to copy someone's character)• Note anything that might be difficult to see in references, particularly scars• In-game lighting in screenshots can alter the colour of everything drastically between different locations. Give your artist references with neutral lighting, or provide colour swatches for each feature• Faceclaims are extremely useful. These are photos of real people who resemble your character. The final art won't be exactly like the reference but gives an invaluable stepping off point in knowing how you visualise your character• Don't worry if you have no art yet or can't find the perfect matching picture. A reference does not have to match every aspect of the character! You might provide one picture for hair, another for eyes, another for face shape, another for expression and so on.• If you have a particular scene in mind for an illustration, MS paint doodles are perfect to show what you had in mind for pose and composition• For accurate colours (eg for eyes or skin) you can use hex colour codes, Pantone swatches, even screenshot a nice colour you found in Google :DSending ReferencesOne of the best ways people have sent me refs is via Google drive or in Google docs. Put all the images in one character folder to make it easy to navigate and there's the option to add notes to any picture too. (Make sure to turn permissions on for viewing to save time, it lets me see the pictures without any delays. <3)
