Kentard's Art Commission Thread~

Hey everybody~!
I believe most of you would know by now that I do concept work and art for SK-related stuff.
Truth is, I'm stone broke, and I do need some CE.
I will be offering my artsy services to everyone in the community who's willing to pay, so here's some basic information:
Current Works
- Boringsmasher's Commission (600 CE)
- Ndogten's Commission (500 CE)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample Works
For those who are asking whether I'm worth the cash, here's some of my sample works:

Payment Issues
All issues regarding the payment of commissions will be handled through my SK account, Kentard.
All confirmed buyers will be informed via this thread, so do check back frequently for updates.
If you are a confirmed buyer, please send me an in-game mail to the IGN Kentard within 7 days, including your email address (please do not post it on this thread for privacy reasons). I will promptly reply with my own email for ease of contact, and payment details will be confirmed in that mail.
Please note that all confirmed buyers will be required to make a deposit of 50% of the original CE requested for the commission.
In the event that the commission is not delivered within the stipulated deadline, another in-game mail or email will be sent to you regarding a full refund.
In the event that the commission is completed and the buyer defaults payment, your name will be publicly blacklisted on this thread, a report will be made to the administrators, and the CE deposit will NOT be refunded.
Copyrights
Once a purchase is completed, the buyer has full rights to the purchased work (it's only fair given that they paid for it), however please credit me (at the very least) for the original work.
The buyer is allowed to modify the work and sell the modified work, only on the condition that my name is credited for conceiving the original work.
Types of Commissions
1. Auctions - I will occasionally auction off completed, watermarked works, and the highest bidder within the stated time period will be notified as a confirmed buyer. All bids must be at least 20 CE more than the previous price.
If the bidder does not respond with an in-game mail within 7-days, the work will be sold to the next-highest bidder.
2. Requested Commissions - I will accept all Spiral Knights related commissions, as well as a few unrelated ones (depending on the content). Please ensure that all requested commissions have content that is legal and non-offensive.
Please note that in the event that there are too many buyers, your commissions will temporarily be put on hold; however do not fret, you will be informed if I am working on your commission.
All prices are at the discretion of the author (i.e. me, but as a general guideline, character portraits are at 200-800 CE, or its equivalent in CR, depending on the detail required.)
Also, for more awesome artwork:
Please check out my good pal Heroineforhire's commission page right here! Feel free to commission from her if you'd like a change in style; just for reference, here's one of her recent samples:
Bombtastic by Heroineforhire

Also, a new commission for bombers to share the love~
This one goes at 400 CE too~

LOL, totally agree there. This is the right way to sell artwork. "Other guy" take note.

Will also be accepting offers for other commissions by request if anyone's interested~

Here is what my character looks like.

I will be requesting this service of you!... but I will be getting a little more CR's first, and what I'd like you to draw.... :3
As a fellow artist (At least an under resourced and under practiced one) I absolutely support this thread! Never mind the fact that you draw quite well... ;D
~Tsu

Thanks for the order; would you like any other details in your commission?
Any specific pose you want me to draw your character in?
Otherwise I'll be starting on the piece, and an in-game mail will be sent to you.
@Tsu: Soon; but many thanks for the support~ :3

So, i just got My commission thingy, and its amazing... i thought I'd post a link, cause i really like it... sooo...
I am truly tempted to turn my entire monitor sideways so i can get the whole picture in all its glory! ... but then i would be smashing things in SK all wonky like... :/
~Tsu

I'd like to commission a rather complicated work of art, and we can talk pricing in accordance with the difficulty it presents to you.
I'd like the following models posed, back to back, with the second model (Vog/Skolver) wearing a Recon's armor (I can get a screenshot of the armor for you if needed)
First Model Screen:

Hm... what do i want?
Oo oo i know!
I want you to draw a character wearing the following :
Helmet : Spiral Tailed Helm.
Armor : Tabard of the Coral Rose.
Weapon : Callahan
Now, accessories on my characters drawing :
1. Fancy Scarf
2. fancy Vertical Vents
3. Fancy Valkyrie Wings
4. Fancy Bomb bandolier
And i want you to put him in a really cool position, hard to describe... kinda like have him look like he's sliding in and is pointing his callahan right at you and about to fire :D
Now of course don't make it right now, i don't have the money yet.
Just be ready, as soon as my debt is paid off i want this :3

Here's the picture he drew for me: http://www.flickr.com/photos/61299046@N07/6881784854/in/photostream
And Here are some reference photos for my next commission. Since it's a little more detailed, I'll pay 600 ce.

I want one! Are you still doing these?

I'm a little tied up right now, but feel free to send me your commission requests; I'll get back to them in about 2 to 3 weeks. :D
@Demidagaz: Feel free to send me a mail in-game, and I'll name a price for the commission. Do send some sample pics of the characters for reference; alternatively just name the equipment you want me to draw.
Also, I'm updating the "Current Projects" with the Forum IGNs of those who have made the CE deposit so far; do check back frequently!
And one more thing; please support my good pal Heroineforhire's commission thread over here!

Just sent you a mail, thank you :)

Sorry for the delay, was caught up with other works.
@Xairathan: Your work should be done in two days or so; I'll send you a mail again when it's done.
@Diamondshreddie: Eh, why not. :D Just send me a mail in-game with your description and I'll work out the prices from there.

I Would like one as well ^_^
should i just mail you in game what i want? :P
Thanks ^_^

Sure, just send me a PM in-game with your description (facial expression, poses etc); preferably with a list of equipment and reference pictures, if any.
I'll determine the price from there.
Thanks again~!
UPDATE: I've completed Xairathan and Aemicus' commission.
Still awaiting deposit payment from Demidagaz, and I'll get started on his after Mawashimono's.

Thank you, Kentard!

Did you get my mail with the deposit? I sent it the day you mailed me ingame. :)

Yup, got the deposit~
I'm working on it right now, so everything's good. :D
Update: I can also commission forum avatars (for other forums, of course), banners, bookmarks etc. if you like.

Ok... when i saw what you made for Aemicus...i just have to buy a picture from you NAOOOO!!!
Ok, What Serell wants :
Character wearing the following siting down in an alley against a wall with a broken heart painted on it wih me pointing my gun at my head with an emotionless face yet with a slight hint of sadness :
My characters color, violet
Armor, Tabard of the Coral Rose
Helm, Spiral Tailed helm colored to match my tabard.
Don't show shield
Gun that i am pointing at my head, Callahan
Accesories on my character :
Fancy Vertical Vents
Fancy Flower
Fancy Scarf
Fancy Bomb Bandolier
Just tell me how much CE you want and i'll send it to you through mail :3

I'd like this done whenever you have the time. It's not a full-knight picture, but rather one of those 'motivational' ones.
I'm looking for a Dragon Scale Helm, facing forward (towards the viewer) with nothing but a pair of Vertical Vents poking out of the helm, and the words "Vertical Vents are EVIL" framing the picture.
IGN: Xairathan
Thanks! :D

@Serell:
I'd say somewhere around 600 CE, given the detail involved.
Do send me an in-game mail with a 300 CE deposit and your email so I can send the finished product over, thanks~
@Xairathan:
Sounds good, I'll send you an in-game mail once I've gotten some commissions done with.
Should cost only about 200 CE since it's fairly simple, though.

600 CE? Sounds good :D
I will do so soon

I want one, if not a lot more arts please !
Ill mail you my email address ingame.

Sure thing, just send me your intended description (including any character screenshots and a list of equipment), and I'll reply with the estimated price of the commission. :)
Again, all in-game mails to my mule account Kentard, please~

Sent a mail ingame, if you would like a Screen shot just ask ^_^

Done with St-Leone's massive 1.2k CE commission; will be working on the other two.
In the meantime, feel free to commission other works if you like~
I can also do non-SK-related works, but an extra cost may be incurred for more detailed works.

Thank you so much for the wonderful work Kentard! :D

Just send me an in-game mail with the details, and I'll reply with the prices.
Again, do send all mails to Kentard, and include any character screenshots and a list of equipment (if applicable).
:)
a better artist and a better thread than the last time I saw this. I wish you success.
