My rules and guidelines for art commissions.
THESE PRICES FOR THESE PIECES ARE BASED ON PERSONAL, NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY.

This means that the commissioned images are not to be reprinted en mass and/or sold in any way (e.g. logos, stickers, buttons, calendars, books, comics, posters, prints, advertisements, etc.) unless it is by me. I also reserve the right to use any commissioned piece to promote myself, be it by online posting, selling prints, etc.

Please keep in mind that I am NOT a graphic designer. I will no longer take commissions for logos.

Prices for commercial pieces will vary much more and quotes will need to be requested of me on a one-on-one basis.

ALSO, these are merely guidelines. Image complexity, size, subject matter, etc. all affect the pricing of things. If a character of yours has complicated scales, fur, or feathers covering every inch of his/her body expect the prices to be higher.

Please note that I would like these guidelines to be followed! While I won't necessarily turn your offer away, it will be much easier for me if you adhere to them.


Main Subject Matter
:pointr:Fantasy Creatures
:pointr:Animals
:pointr:Anthropomorphs
:pointr:Humans


Please be warned that I enjoy having a little bit of artistic license with my work. Do not expect me to completely change my style or my technique to accommodate what you want. If you don't like my style, get someone else. Detail regarding commissions and what is expected/wanted can be helpful, but too much can be overwhelming.

THAT SAID, I reserve the right to decline any commission I wish, for any reason and at any time before payment is made. Do not take it as a personal affront, for I probably do not mean to be rude, but if I do not feel that I would gain anything from completing your commission, I will not do it.

Mediums
:pointr:Digital (Photoshop, Alchemy)
:pointr:Marker

:pointr:Acrylic Paint
:pointr:Sculpey (Polymer clay)
:pointr:Charcoal
:pointr:Watercolor & Gouache
:pointr:Colored Pencil
:pointr:Oil Pastel
:pointr:Oil Paint
:bulletred:I am probably missing a few here, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

PRICES

Prices are made based on what I deem a fair trade for my time. If you feel they are too expensive, please remember that this is my job and how I make my money. I try to make sure you get a piece that was well worth the amount you paid for it.

A NOTE CONCERNING PROFESSIONAL FREELANCE WORK: The prices listed below are for personal, non-commercial images only and not the basis for any professional freelance work. For quotes concerning these, please contact me with any questions and with as much detail regarding the proposal as possible and we can certainly arrange something.

FLAT RATE PRICES
:bulletred:These are the base prices for my commissions. I will absolutely not go under these amounts unless I feel it is necessary.

:bulletred:Pencil or digital (Photoshop, Alchemy).

Pictured: Pencil


:pointr:Clean Line art - $30+

:pointr:Pixel Art Image - $10+
:bulletred:Photoshop, MS Paint. Price depends on complexity.

Pictured: MS Paint


:pointr:Sculpture - Price quote upon request
:bulletred:Because sculptures pose a greater challenge and take more time, effort, and materials than most 2 dimensional creations, prices may vary greatly.

Pictured: Approx $40, +$15 for shipping. Piece was done a LONG time ago and my skills have improved since then. ;3

:bulletred:All Prices are based upon the piece containing one major subject, which means if you want to add more subjects it will be extra. Little animals and other small things aren't considered "major subjects" unless the sheer number of them deems them so.

Extra Major Subjects
$20+


:bulletred:Take into account that the prices can vary depending on different circumstances and the complexity of the commissioned work! So if you have any questions AT ALL please email or note me.  

Please note that the price of a piece will be discussed between the commissioner and I until a satisfactory amount is chosen.  

If you want a traditional piece and would like the final to be shipped to you I will be adding a shipping charge that can range anywhere from $2.50 to $30+ depending on the size and weight of the piece. Obviously, heavier, larger things will cost more to ship. I also tend to put tracking on things I send.


PAYMENT

ALL PRICES ARE USD.

:pointr:I will be accepting payment by means of PAYPAL, as well as checks, cash, and money orders sent through the mail.

:pointr: The payment method will be the following:

For PAYPAL Users: I will send a "Request Money" email to YOU first.  Which will then require you to send me the reply payment.  

For Cash/Check Senders: You will need to send me an email at WorenTiger@gmail.com or a Note through dA requesting my Address.

:below::below::below::below::below:
Due to the nature of this work, refunds will NOT be given unless it is requested within 24 hours of receiving payment! I cannot stress this enough! Please be SURE you can commission me before doing so. I know things happen, but by commissioning me you are obligated to pay the amount I require.
:above::above::above::above::above:

What Commissions I Will NOT do

:pointr: Portrayals of illegal activities, sexually explicit imagery, excessive gore, hate images, rude or slanderous imagery, offensive imagery, etc.

How to Commission me

:pointr: The first commission method is by noting me at my DevianART account.  The subject should read "Commission" or at least have that word in it.  This way, I can easily separate these notes from any others I receive.

:pointr: The second method is to email me at my Google Mail account, WorenTiger@gmail.com and once again make the subject say "Commission."

:pointr: IN YOUR NOTE/EMAIL I will NEED to know what the subject of the commission is going to be and any other details you would like included. This means, poses, clothing, accessories, character descriptions, etc. I cannot make you an accurate quote without it!

By sending me payment, you are agreeing to all of my terms.


MORE INFORMATION


:pointr:I reserve the right to change any and all matter within  this information page at any time and without warning.  

:pointr:I also have the right to refuse to deliver a commission if payment is not received in full.

:pointr: If you're interested in commissioning me, I hope you found this information helpful!  

Thanks for checking me out!
