For examples of my previous commission work, please see THIS GALLERY.
I will draw most anything you want, whether original or fanart characters, with some exceptions. I will not draw:
Tattoo work (not comfortable with the idea)
Cartoon superheroes or Dragonball-Z/Pokemon characters
Devils or satanic themes, people with horns, red dragons
Occult symbols/rituals or pagan/mythological themes
Very buff, muscular, or bald characters (just no good at it)
Explicit sexuality or same-sex couples
Logos and designs
Guns/robots/machinery or complicated building/city settings
Real-life portraits, such as your friend, pet, (though I can sometimes be persuaded, depending)
WHAT YOU GET
Progress scan/s of the drawing will be e-mailed to you for approval before your commission is finalized. The original drawing can be shipped to you upon request (shipping/envelope fees apply). If you commission a digitally-painted work, you will receive a web-decent file, and also have the option of requesting the original lineart plus a high-gloss print shipped to you (shipping/envelope fees apply). You will be allowed to post the image for your own personal and non-profit use online, including the right to crop or alter it for signatures, headers, backgrounds, etc.. If you wish to publish the image outside of the internet or to use it to make profit, however, that will require an exclusive or joint-copyright license fee outside of the commission rate. I will not send large, full resolution files unless a license has been purchased.
PAYMENT and SHIPPING
All work must be prepaid (I do accept payments, please ask for details). Paypal is PREFERRED, though I also accept Credit-Cards, Money-Orders and Personal Checks. Mailed artwork is sealed and shipped flat in a cardboard envelope.
You can contact me through e-mail: saimain@yahoo.com; or or AOL Instant Messenger: Faerens Song. If I accept the commission, I’ll give you my address and things can go from there. :)
