It's true, on this day I've turned 35. So ancient, so old. Ah well.
In more important news, due to hours being cut at my job I've decided to try out tackling a few commissions per month to help shore things up.
Please refer to my previous works for the quality of my art and my current capability as I'm ever striving to improve my work. So here's a few notes to keep in mind: 1: My job takes priority. It's my main means of funds, and is a five day a week job that can often leave me quite tired. That said, if I accept a commission from you, it will have my undivided attention while I'm at home and am able to work on it. 2: As of currently I will be taking 2 or 3 commissions a month. While I want to be able to take on as many as I can, I need to figure out what my limits are, so starting out with a small number is the best way to go on this. If I find I can take more on, then I will. 3: This isn't a first come, first serve thing. Even if I'm full up on commissions, don't hesitate to send me commission suggestions. I'm just starting out so who knows if I'll even get the full two or three a month. 4: You must have a visual reference for the character(s) you want commissioned. I know some artists can work off of a text description, but I can't, no matter how detailed or well written the description is. 5: I only accept payment through Paypal, no exceptions. Maybe some day in the future I can try an art trade, or collaboration, or raffle, or something, but this is to help with home stuffs at this point in time. 6: I sketch my drawings on paper first, then do linework/coloring using an art program (currently some version of SAI) on my computer. This is important to note because before I go to work on the linework, I will send pictures of the sketch via email (or Skype/Discord when available) to make sure everything is where it should be and look as it should, roughly. Sketches are the rough work, and where I can alter the picture if need be. 7: As of now, my rates will be $30 for a full color, simple shading (again please refer to my previous works) +$10 for each additional character past the first (current maximum of two total characters, please). I can do simple backgrounds, as of now, at no extra charge. 8: If commissioning a character that belongs to someone else, please let me know so I can give proper credit to the character's owner. 9: No animations, icons, or pixel art. Just drawings. 10: In addition to #9, I won't do art of the following nature: Vore, Gore, Scat, Watersports, Gas, Toddlercon, and possibly some other things that simply aren't coming to mind at the time of writing this. When it doubt, it never hurts to ask! 11: To contact me regarding a commission, pm me either here or on my Deviant Art account ( http://raikoo2.deviantart.com/ ) with the subject: Commission Request - 'Your name here.' . This will help me keep my notes more organized.
I thank you all for your time and patience. And even if you aren't able to commission me, feel free to spread the word because every little bit helps. - Raikoo.
