Important update: I've opened up ONE slot. You can commission up to three images per slot. I've also hiked up my prices considerably, in the hopes that I can get more CE per image, and also that I won't have as many commissions to tackle. I'm going to finish those commissions I have agreed to do for the original stated price, so if you have a commission waiting, don't worry. ^^

2kCE per character for a more simplistic image (Characters may appear unfinished/sketchy, simple gradient or solid colour background.)
2kCE Examples:
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/mycharacter.png

3.5kCE for the best of my abilities per character. (Characters won't have sketch lines if I can help it, and you'll have a background that resembles something. Poses will be as you require, and energetic.)
3.5KCE Examples:
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/hunterr.png
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/knight3.png

The commission doesn't have to be your character, but I do want to keep this Spiral Knights related. :3 I can do group or double images, but be prepared to make a good offer for it. I'll also attempt a simplistic background, which can be seen best on my completed work.

Slots open:

Tdlob's two images- Waiting on first half of payment for first image.
Jade's reserved spot - Will begin sketching shortly - Half paid upfront for both commissions

Completed work:

Bettit - http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/bettie-3.png

Wat. That drawing is amazing. How much would you want for a coloured drawing like that, except maybe only half as amazing?

Hey Toxic - Ideally, I'm not

Hey Toxic - Ideally, I'm not sure. The drawing I showed is the quality of art you'll be getting, so I can't half the quality, haha.

I don't know how high or low to charge, but I wanted to get around 400CE/36k per image to begin with at least. I'm sorry if that's high. I can do lineless and make it more realistic than this cartoony version, but it was just an example.

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 16:54

Tevokkia

Aheh ...

I dropped you a line in-game with an offer. Hopefully your ign is the same as your forum name. ^.^;

Lazy color reference (I didn't really have the time for shading) for Bettit, the gremlin character, plus some non-colored references. (The bandage over her eye is optional- the injury happened recently in the roleplay and it will eventually be replaced by an eye patch. So either a regular eye, a bandage, or an eyepatch are appropriate, depending on what you feel like drawing.) If you're more comfortable drawing her with her coat on, it's the dark grey thing draped over her knee. Pretty plain jacket with no trim or hood, and rust-colored patches on her elbows. You don't have to make her as tattered and messed up as in the color picture if you don't want to. Do you work better with just references or with personality information?

For the couples pic, here are the descriptions, in case you use SpiralSpy to get 360-degree references. Otherwise, I can grab screenshots and post them, too.

Tev:
Cobalt Personal Color, Almond Eyes, Extra Short Height Modifier
Valkyrie Helm with Cool Flower accessory, Valkyrie Mail with Prismatic Valkyrie Wings accessory
Optional shield and weapon: Grey Owlite Shield and Final Flourish

Sol:
Cobalt Personal Color, Determined Eyes, Extra Tall Height Modifier
Helm of the Fallen, Ash Tail Coat with Cool Valkyrie Wings accessory
Optional shield and weapon: No shield, Gran Faust (preferably stuck into the ground)

Something cute with a little bit of a background ... I don't have anything really specific in mind.

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 13:43

Tdlob-Forums

I've dropped you a message in-game.

As soon as I hear back from you we can hammer out the specifics.

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 14:00

Elysian

I'll get in game now. :3 And

I'll get in game now. :3 And Tevokkia, that will be no problem. I'll begin work on both images tomorrow as I've got up really late today (I'm ill xD). I recently found SpiralSpy so I can do the armor and accessories myself. xD I work better from an image reference, so thanks for throwing up the references of Bettit! If you have any requests for a pose you'd like her to be in, I can do that. Otherwise I might sit her on a log. xD

And Tdlob, I'm gonna go on and check my mail now.

I've also just finished another image , as a test to get a hang of the Spiral Knights chibi style. xD;

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 14:08

Tevokkia

Feel better!

Haha, no specific pose request for Bettie, although she is a demo and carries around a big backpack,so you could have her sitting on that, instead, if you wanted (if you do that, it's got pockets on the sides and is patched up like her coat and hat).

No hurry on the images, especially since you're ill. Hope you feel better soon!

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 15:28

Elysian

Hey Tevokkia, I've just

Hey Tevokkia, I've just realized I can't send you a mail over these forums. xD; I've done the sketch of the first one, just tell me if you want anything changing. Please note I'm trying to stick vaguely to the spiral knights chibi-esque style like my examples, but if you want something else other than the sketch below, I can try. :3

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/bettie.png

Also, for your couple image what pose do you want them in? :3

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 15:55

Tevokkia

Aww, I love the little sketch of Bettit. ^.^ Very cute, and really looking forward to seeing it finished.

Ermmm ... I didn't have anything in mind, but Sol seems intent on having an updated version of this picture I drew when we were just starting out. So a pose similar to that would be lovely. They can be standing or sitting, or whatever (and if something else seems like an awesome idea to you, go ahead and do that instead. I like surprises).

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 17:29

Elysian

Alright, I'll make a version

Alright, I'll make a version of that. xD Just don't forget to update your first post with the weapon and shield Sol has. :P I'm glad you like the sketch, I'm going to give her a forest background hence the random squiggles in the background. xD; I'll continue working on this tonight but it will probably be finished tomorrow. ^^

Also added another example, just trying to refine my style and make it suit the Spiral Knights art some more - http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/knight3.png

Also an update on Bettit/Bettie -

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/bettie-2.png

I'll make her look less cat-like once I get back to it tomorrow, and refine the shading more. xD;

Sun, 07/08/2012 - 17:31

Tevokkia

Okay, I texted Sol at work so he won't forget and got the shield/sword thing up.

Also, I'm dying of cute over here. ^.^

... you work much faster than I do.

Well, I'm going to bed now. xD; Thanks, I've been drawing all night. :3 You draw great though, I can't seem to wrap my head around backgrounds and details. xD; But I guess practise is helping. :3

I'll also begin your sketch of the duo tomorrow. I've accepted the energy transfer now that I'm partway done with one image, so there shouldn't be a long wait until the duo is done. (I find I'm much better at knights than gremlins :3)

Edit: Done - http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/bettie-3.png

If there's anything you need changing let me know. I'll be happy to change anything on the image, as I'm not sure if I got the right helm or if you think it's too bright etc. It's Crown of the Fallen right? XD;

I made some changes from the reference Spiralspy came up with, like the wings on the helm and the wings in general. Let me know it it's okay!

It's beautiful! You don't need to change anything. ^.^ Can't wait to show Sol when he gets home.

Thank you so much!

Nice Drawer = Make me a good Picture or 2

Hello! Saw your pictures you have drawn! They are absolutely AMAZING!
Wondered if you could make a picture that has the new Shadow Lair Snarbolax with the green effects instead of the red ones.
And a Knight that has the following Equipment:
Barbarous Thorn Blade
Crest of Almire
Snarbolax Coat
Fractured Mask of Seerus
Unclean Aura
Purple Colour(Normal Colour)
Sad Eyes.

And the knight is like Attacking the Snarbolax somehow.
If you mix it together maybe you got better idea on how it gonna look.
Well i want it as a Wallpaper and the figures(Snarbolax + the Knight is on the Right Bottom Corner with the Wallpaper Resolution: 1280 x 960.
With also Green backround(Grass etc.)
Maybe add some tree's etc. Well if you could make this i would be glad and i could pay 300 CE maybe? Can higher if it's to low.

Thanks, Nanocash!

No problem Tevokkia. I'm

No problem Tevokkia. I'm happy that you like it. ^^

Also, Nanocash I liked the idea but the offer isn't enough for a wallpaper featuring two characters, sorry. For what you are asking, of a wallpaper quality (I assume with a good background too), I'd look for more around 1.5k-2KCE and upwards. Sorry if that's too high, but it would take me a very long time. xD;

I've replied to all other mails in game and look forward to hearing your replies.

Please note that with all of these requests coming in, getting everyone's commissions done will be difficult. Some images will be more 'refined' than others, but all images will be finished to your liking and to the standard of the images I've finished so far.

Profile Picture

How much would it be for a Profile picture on like Skype with this:
Barbarous Thorn Blade
Crest of Almire
Snarbolax Coat
Fractured Mask of Seerus
Unclean Aura
Purple Colour(Normal Colour)
Sad Eyes

It depends if by profile

It depends if by profile picture you mean a headshot. I could do you a waist-up image for your picture if you like, but it'll still be like 300CE, sorry.

Edit: Working on Xairathan's image decided to do a rough sketch in pencil - http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/quicksketch.jpg

Hey Toxic, commissions are

Hey Toxic, commissions are currently closed until I can get most of my current commissions done.

After that, I will be raising my prices substantially, as I feel that 1kCE = $2 = underselling. I can work for IRL money on images that take me 20 minutes to complete for more than that, so I hope you can understand where I'm coming from.

Edit: Sketched out jade-rabbit's duo. Gonna have them fighting/getting ready to fight the roarmulus shadow lair twins if that's okay. xD;

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/duowip1.jpg

Another edit:
I've updated the first post with the finished work of Jade's duo, then I'll begin Xai's second dragon knight image after receiving half upfront.

Tevokkia

Aheh ...

Just in case you haven't seen it, the commission you did of Sol and I was just featured on Twitter by SK, and will probably be up on Facebook in the next couple of hours, so you may be getting a bit of extra attention. ^.^

Probably would have been a LOT of extra attention, but the link to your thread was on my post of your Bettit pic, not that one.

Hehe, thanks Tevokkia xD! Lol, it doesn't matter, as commissions are still closed until I finish these lot. :P But I do appreciate all the lovely comments!

I'll alert you once I re-open the commissions again, Jade, but I'm going to be using the new pricing you've thought up for me. :P If you want a bigger version of the back to back duo for your wallpaper, just mail me ingame and I'll send one to your gmail. :3

Edit: Begun Xai's character feeding Chromalisks

Edit: Went ahead and finished it XD

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/rebecca1199/knightdragon2.jpg

In the end I only painted in one Chromalisk because I felt the others looked derpy. xD;

You making bank yo!

First one will be my Proto set.
Spiral Tailed Helm
-Divine Flower
-Divine Ribbon
-Regal Vertical Vents
-Glow eyes
Spiral Brigandine
-Divine Wings
For this one if you could tie in the Moon Rabbit folklore because that's what I based my name off of. Also remember bunnies are AWSOME!!! Soooo add some bunnies

Second one will be the Sheriff and I again (ref to fist commission) will use the same outfit as before. Make it something [bliss] [bliss] [bliss] [bliss] [fancy lady friend][!] hehe no you don't want to know what I was thinking. Anyways, make it cute maybe a tad bit naughty. Sleeping together ummm not really sure on the pose i'll leave it to you on that part. I'll be happy with whatever you come up with. As long as it isn't me eating his intestines because that isn't very... romantic... err yeah ._.

Tell me if that's kinda what you had in mind!

Move over, there's bubble-wrap to be popped!

How much would a picture from a thread made two years ago? What? You can't get one? That's absurd! I demand refunds for all these necros. I don't care how old it is, I still think I can get pictures from it. I DO, I DO, I DO THINK I CAN GET A PUTTY PICTURE!
