AWESOME, so over the summer, I'm going to open commissions and that's ALL I'm going to be doing until I go off to university in September (well that and working of course but that's different).

**EDIT**
For a limited time only I'm taking commissions at HALF PRICE Just to get the ball rolling as I've had very little interest so far. So have another look through the price list and see if you like the looks of anything here! I'm now FREE from school, I'll be getting those trades done ASAP and then I'll have the summer FREE

I've updated my commission price list so hopefully it's a little more understandable than my last one was, too. This time around I'm working on a time-based structure, working on a work rate of £5/hour (that's only slightly above minimum wage in the UK, but less than I get paid at work, so count yourselves lucky!). Of course, this means that prices are negotiable so get in touch with what you want and I'll give you an estimate.

Without further ado, here they are!

Sketches
1/2 hour to 1 hour
£2.50 - £5.00 ($4 - $8; €3 - €6) £1.25 - £2.50 ($2 - $4; €1.50 - €3)
Examples: [link] [link] [link]
- Base colours on request only
- Each character drawn separately (this means you'll pay for each individually). They will be drawn together upon request only

Recolours
1/4 hour to 1/2 hour
£1.25 - £2.50 ($2 - $4; €1.50 - €3) £0.60 - £1.25 ($1 - $2; €0.75 - €1.50)
Examples: [link] [link]
- Simple: a recolour of one of the two templates above
- Higher prices may be charged for the addition of wings, accessories and the like, removal of scarf/bell etc. (ie. changes made to the base)

Flat colours
1 hour to 2 hours
£5 - £10 ($8 - $16; €6 - €12) £2.50 - £5.00 ($4 - $7; €3 - €6)
Examples: [link] [link] [link]
- Simple flats with plain, solid lineart
- Can do lineless if you prefer but this will reach the upper end of the pricing

References
1 1/2 hours to 2 1/2 hours
£7.50 - £12.50 ($12 - $20; €9 - €15) £3.75 - £6.25 ($6 - $10; €4.50 - €7.50)
Examples: [link] [link] [link]
- Pricing depends entirely on the character
- Like flat colours, but extra details added eg. different views of the facial features, accessories etc.
- Will include any information you provide or I can make it up
- Can design a character if you like, either personality, history, physical or a combination (more might be charged for those)

Cel Shading
2 hours to 3 hours
£10 - £15 ($16 - $25; €12 - €17) £5 - £7.50 ($8 - $12.50; €6 - €8.50)
Examples: [link] [link] [link]
- Either soft or precise cel shading, with a flat colour background
- Coloured lineart upon request (ie. specific to markings), otherwise all one solid colour.

Painted Images
4 hours to 5 hours
£20 - £25 ($33 - $41; €24 - €30) £10 - £12.50 ($16.50 - $20.50; €12 - €15)
Examples: [link] [link] [link] [link]
- Multiple multiple layers of shading
- No effects added for the base amount (ie. no playing with styles, just paint not dual brush etc.)

Adding Things/Extras
- Extra characters: add 1/2 the price of your commission, but only the one you want the extra character in
- Extra shading (eg. flat colours, lineless but shaded): add 1/4 of the price of your commission, but only the one you want the extra shading on
- Background (basic patterned colour): add £5/$8/€6 £2.50/$4/€3
- Background (soft scenery like snow): add £10/$16/€12 £5/$8/€6
- Background (detailed scenic): add £15/$25/€17 £7.50/$12.50/€8.50
- If you have any other requests, ask and I will give you an estimate for price.
- I'm happy to crop or create an icon for you, just yell.

Formats
- All the above are for digital works, in any program that I feel like using - and I fancy doing a lot of experimenting over the holidays. If you have any particular preference, however (eg. Photoshop, Oekaki), let me know and I'll do it in that specially.
- Traditional media can be requested and I will post the result to you but will request a £1.50/$2.50/€1.75 charge for postage.
- A small, user-friendly, watermarked version will be posted on deviantART. To obtain your full-sized image without a watermark, just ask, I'll send it.

Payment, Perks and Promises
- All payment will be done through Paypal if possible (I'll note my address to you, make sure you include your username when you pay).
- Cheques or postal orders will be accepted only in certain circumstances.
- Your commission will be sketched before I ask for payment. I will not complete it until I have received payment.
- If you asked for a sketch or a recolour, I will wait for payment before even beginning.
- Finally if you order more than one thing at any one time you will receive a 10% discount on all of the cheapest items!

That's it, hope that's easy for you to read through. I'll update again in a few weeks with details about my rerunning summer competition (which I will be stricter with). Meanwhile, feel free to note me if you are interested in commissions!
