What would you like to order?

Just like silly Apple Juice over there, I also divide my work up into three sections: Sketches, Line-art, and Colored.

I’ll try and get some better reference pictures up eventually, some of these are older drawings.

Feel free to check out my deviantArt gallery for more of my work, or if you want to request something similar to what I’ve already done.

Things may change around, as I’m still trying to figure everything out, so I apologize in advance for any inconveniences that may cause.

Sketches

I am usually a pretty messy sketcher, so these will be no where as neat as a colored or line-art piece, but overall the actual content will be about the same.

In sketches, you would have a basic black and white image, completely traditional except for maybe some editing to clean up the image on the computer. I can also color the image with a color of your choice, one or two colors max.

Cost: $3

Line-art

Here, I take those silly messy sketches, scan ‘em in, and outline them so they’re all pretty and neat~

Two types of line-art too, as one might assume from the pictures above. The one on the left I simply used a filter on my computer directly onto the sketch I scanned in. In my opinion, I like this one better, but only when it’s smaller. When you make the image larger, it starts looking strange and warped, so this is good for smaller images. The picture on the right is where I actually go into an imaging program and outline the sketch, so it’s all clean. I can also color the lineart this way. It’s probably easier to tell the difference here.

Cost:
$4 (Computer Linearted)
$3 (Filter Linearted)

Colored

Finally, we get to the pictures that don’t make your eyes bleed~ These ones are all cleaned up and colored in on the computer.

Usually my colored in pictures are softer or “blurry”, but I can try sharper images too. I can color in the lineart, or leave it as black, depending on what the picture is supposed to look like. If you have an idea of a mood, or personality you want the image to have, it’d really help me out~

Cost: $5

Sketches vs Lineart vs Colored

Here’s Orange Juice, in all three varieties~

Extra Characters/Backgrounds

The prices listed above assume that you don’t want a complex background (simple color or gradient backgrounds don’t count as complex) and have only one character in the picture. If you want two people in one picture, multiply the price by 1.5 (add half of the price to the total again) If you want three people in one picture, double the price.

Complex backgrounds, such as actual scenery, will cost around a dollar, maybe two if it’s a very very complex or challenging background.

Confused yet?

Sorry for all the confusion on pricing. Feel free to ask me what your particular commission you have in mind would cost. If you have a deviantArt account, you can note me (~ilovebluejello), or send me an email (fruitycafe@yahoo.com) if you don’t have an account there. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Here's a page that should hopefully help with the math: Pricing Chart
