Commission prices and types by Shana

Commission prices and types

Shana

This submission will have all the important information to consider for a commission. It will have commission types, the corresponding prices for each type, the written information to do the commission and the restrictions I have to work a pic. This journal will be used as the oficial reference for anyone that wants to commission me in the future n__n

** COMMISSION FORM** ESSENTIAL POINT, READ WITH CARE PLEASE

For every new commission you want to request with me, you have to fill out this form with all the corresponding information so its easier for me to have the information I need ready, and its also to make it easier for you because you know what exact information is needed n__n

This is the form, please read it carefully and if you have any doubt please note me.

  • Characters name: The name or names of the chars for the pic you will ask.
  • Media: in here you place what kind of commision you like (sketch, inks, traditional color, digital color, etc)
  • REferences: the most important references of your character that are useful for me to do the pic correctly.
  • Idea: in here you place the idea you have for the pic, a pose that you have in mind, a specific body image, etc. If you dont have any particular idea or you decide to give me artistic freedom with your commission, I can come up with something nice for you. ARTISTIC FREEDOM WARNING: if you decide to give me artistic freedom or a general, simple idea of what you want, I will design the pic and the poses from scratch and based on what I come up with your idea, so any detail change will be done as long as it doesn’t involve the fact of RE-SKETCHING a pose from zero. *Discount: if you are aiming for a specific discount ( seasonal or special discount) please add it here so Im aware you are willing to apply for a discount, because Im human and I may forget there are discounts for some things without intending to. If you have a FREQUENT COSTUMER VIP CARD please add in this space the Costumer N°. that your card has so I can verify the data and give you the appropriate discount n_n
  • Email: I need an email to which I can send the preview and the finished product once I have it. I ask for an email that is constantly used, or at least active. *Paypal address: I need your paypal address to send a payment request once the sketch is fully approved so I can keep going with the pic n___n

All new commissions will be treated via FA NOTES, and afterwards via email for the previews and final deliveries.

If you don’t like to use FA notes because you are not in the site often and you prefer to use email instead, you can reach me at shanas.atelier[at]gmail.com this will be my official commission email and will be checked daily n___n

If you have doubts regarding this restriction please feel free to ask!

If you have any doubt regarding an idea or pose, you can always ask and Ill let you know if Im comfortable drawing it or not.

For adult pieces, I have the right to decline an idea or pose or commission if Im not comfortable with it. Ill try to be as open minded as I can, but if I don’t like something Ill let the commissioner know to discuss how to change the subject.

EVERYTHING ELSE THAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS LIST IS MOST LIKELY I WILL DRAW IT, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ABOUT IT n___n

IMPORTANT! ALL TRADITIONAL COMMISSIONS CAN BE SHIPPED TO YOUR HOME ADDRESS

The shipping methods can be 2 ways:

  • Via normal postal service, this type of shipping takes more or less a month to arrive to the destination (time can change according to your place of residence and continent) and has a tracking number to see the status of the package.

*Private shipping service that takes 5 days (time can vary on your residence place) to arrive and has a tracking system number . The price for this method will be discussed directly with each commissioner.

If the commissioner wants the original piece shipped to his/her home, then we can discuss the shipping price according to the shipping method that is chosen. If the commissioner doesnt want the original shipped, then the digital scan will be delivered and I will keep the original traditional drawing.

PRICE LIST
I will separate the 2 medias I use for my commissions so that its easier to find which media you want and the correct Price ok??

NOTE: please take in account that when the image has 2+ characters, the character with the less difficult design will be the one included in the base price (this goes for all commission types in my list)

Species such as:
*Dragons
*Chakats/Taurs
*Multi limbed characters (in here enters the chars that have more than one pair of wings, 2+ tails, etc. If you have any doubt you are free to ask)
*Characters with a truly complicated fur pattern

Will automatically be charged with the highest price specified in the extra character category of the commission type you choose due to the complexity and the time the design takes when drawing it .

IF THE COMMISSION INCLUDES ONLY ONE CHARACTER AND IT IS ONE OF THE SPECIES MENTIONED ABOVE THEN I WILL CHARGE $10 EXTRA TO THE BASE PRICE BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY.

Crowd commission : 5 or more characters in the same image.

Costs are variable depending on quality. See below for more information.

I have been evaluating this for some time, and indeed multi-character commissions are very time consuming because of the amount of characters and the poses that tend to be more complex than normal commissions. So commissions that have 5 or more characters will be included in this type of commissions. The quality of the image will be the same as normal commissions of the type of quality you choose. (For example, if you want a crowd commission of a full color quality, it will be the same full color quality I use for normal images of 1, 2 or 4 characters). There wont be any quality change, just the quantity of characters permitted in the same image.

RESTRICTION ON THIS TYPE OF COMMISSION

Only DIGITAL MEDIA will be available. Traditional media wont be available for this crowd commissions because of evident lack of space.

PRICES:

Each media will have its own base price and additional character price, so I will make a list of each quality for better consultation:

Digital sketch :

*Monochromatic sketch : $45 (base price with 5 characters included)
Extra character: $9
Additional bg: $5
Restriction: in this category of commissions, I will only work with visual references of the character. No new designs with only written data will be candidates for this type of commission.

*Colored sketch: $65 (base price with 5 characters included)
Extra character:$12
Additional bg: $8
Restriction: in this category of commissions, I will only work with visual references of the character. No new designs with only written data will be candidates for this type of commission.

Lineart: $100 (base price with 5 characters included)
Extra character: $10 - $15 (according to the difficulty of the design)
Additional bg: $10

Simple digital color: $135 (base price with 5 characters and a simple bg included)
Extra character: $15 - $20 (according to the difficulty of the design)
Complex background: extra $20

Full digital color: $180 (base price with 5 characters and a simple bg included)
Extra character: $20- $30 (according to the difficulty of the design)
Elaborated Background: extra $25 - $40 according to the difficulty of the idea or the amount of details it might contain

All of my restrictions, taxes and discounts apply to this commissions as well, as long as you fulfill the requirements, so if you are planning on requesting this type of commissions be sure to check all my rules so that you are not caught off-guard ok??. If its a discount it will be applied after the final price is given, and if its a tax, it will be added to the final price.

Reference sheet: $50 (base price)
This price includes a front and a back view, along with 2 additional bust images/face shots of your character. It also can contain information you want written and a small color pallete if you wish to have it. The sheet is delivered in flat colors with a simple background.
Any additional face shots/bust images will incur an extra charge of $5
A side-way view can also be added with an extra charge of $10
Example: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8231944/

New Character Design Commission : $15 -$30 according to the complexity of the design

There are cases that people want a visual image of their char but don’t have the economic possibility of purchasing a reference sheet, so this option is very handy because I can do the proper design based on images that contain details you would like your char to have or only by written information.

The price includes all up to 4 preliminar sketches with the proper corrections and additions. It also includes up to 2 flat color previews for the design to be completely accurate to your desires.

Any extra previews of sketch or flat color will have an extra charge of $2 per new correction. All this can be discussed with the commissioner directly once the situation poses itself =P

The image is delivered in flat colors with clean lineart and it’s a good reference to give to other artists as a reference image of your char and avoid having to pay extra (because some artists don’t work with written data, only with visual references)

ICONS

Roundie icons: $10 each
Example: http://www.furaffinity.net/full/7196701/

*** EXTRA TAXES AND FIXED DISCOUNTS ***

NEW CHARACTER DESIGN TAX
Price: $10 -$25 according to the complexity of the design
NOTE: This tax DOESN’T apply for the “NEW CHARACTER DESIGN” commission, only for the rest of the commissions listed.
This tax is charged when you request a commission and you only have written information (no visual design reference) of the character you want for the commission.
For this tax you get the preview sketch of the commission and 2 sketch changes to get the design to your liking, and one flat color preview so you can check that the colors match what you want for your char.

Any additional previews or changes will incur an extra $3 charge per change/preview.

RE-SKETCHING A COMMISSION TAX

Price: $10 - $25 according to the number of characters and complexity of the pic

This tax incurs when I sketch the commission idea based on the information or base image the commissioner previously sent when the information was requested. If the commissioner wants a complete change of pose that came up after they see the sketch, this being different to the original information I was provided with, he/she will have to pay this tax additional to the final commission price already settled.

The reason for this tax, is because the already done sketch is a work that won’t be finished and all the time, handwork and material that I spent on it will be unpaid, so it’s a loss for me as an artist.

In exchange for this tax, you will receive a clean scan (or clean digital sketch, depending on the media I worked with) of the already done sketch as if it were a different commission that would enter on the "Sketch" format commission

FREQUENT COMMISSIONER DISCOUNT

Percentage you can obtain by purchasing commissions with me: 10% from the total price of the commission

To be a frequent commissioner you will have to purchase at least 3 commissions with me (starting 2013). The 10% discount will apply starting on the 4th image you buy and upwards. This VIP card will have a life span of 2 years from the moment you get it. After it expires you will have to purchase again 3 images to renovate your card =P

To prove that you are a frequent commissioner, once you reach the status requirements you will get a small personalized VIP image card from me via email that will award you the 10% discount on your future commissions. So please, when you are already a frequent commissioner, when you request a new commission just let me know your VIP number to track you down and give you your discount n_n

Images that dont apply to get this discount: Adoptables and Iron artist challenges (With adoptables you are purchasing the design, not a commission. With Iron artist challenges, the prices are already highly discounted)

SPECIAL DISCOUNTS: -10% from the total price each

*Fairy/Angel female chars: I love to draw fairies and angels, so any person that requests a commission including a fairy or angel female character will automatically earn this discount. It doesn’t matter if its fur or human.
SPECIAL DISCOUNT: if it’s a single character commission that has a female fairy or angel char in it and the theme of the commission is related to fairies or angels (for example, having the char in blue skies flying, or resting in a spring, etc[remember this are only example, it doesn’t have to be that idea specifically]) then I will give a 15% off the total price of the commission.

*Housecats: this discount only applies if the image contains only housecats in it (regardless of gender). A single character commission with one housecat in it applies as well for this commission. it won’t apply if it has a housecat and another character of a different species. Tigers, lions, cheetahs and other “big” cats are not included in this discount.

Antique/elegant party dresses : this discount applies only for single character commissions, obviously only females are allowed. The trick in this commission is that I will be the one choosing the dress style and model that the char will be using. The commissioner will decide if she/he wants an antique or party dress, but aside from that I will choose everything else *w. In the case the commissioner has a specific dress in mind and have a reference for it, he/she can send it over and I can take into consideration using said dress n__n

*Nekomimis / Kemonomimis: I love this kind of designs! X3 human girls with fluffy ears and tails are lovely to draw!! This discount applies to any human (male or female) that has a complete human body with ears and tails (regardless of the animal species you chose for the ears and tail). But there is a catch for this discount: the image must contain only nekomimis/kemonomimis, or at least outnumber by one the number of furries in the image (to make this clear, if you ask for an image with 4 chars, and 3 are furry and one nekomimi, then you wont be able to ask for this discount. But if you ask an image where there are 2 nekomimis and one furry, then you will get the discount =P) Any question regarding this discount, please send me a note so I can clarify it n__n

  • Humans: I am starting to get really fond of human designs, so I will be offering a 10% off for images that contains only human male and female chars in it.

SEASONAL DISCOUNT S: -10% from the total price each

  • MARCH: Flower month
    Only female characters can apply for this discount. Maximum of 3 chars per image
    The image will be done according to the favorite flower of the commissioner. The character(s) will be miniaturized and will be interacting with the chosen flower (she can be on top, hanging of it, on one of the leaves, etc. whatever it inspires me in the moment)

  • JULY : Mermaid month
    This discount isn’t exclusively for defined mermaid characters. If you want to use this discount you only have to let me change your char to a mermaid only for the commission(s) you ask in this particular month. It can be fun if you want to see your character in a different form =P. Both genders apply for mermaid transformation XD

Several discounts can be accumulated in one commission, as long as the requirements are fulfilled.

COMMISSION “POINT SYSTEM” REWARD

This point system is to reward all my commissioners with a chance to get something free as a prize for their support in my art n__n

To gain this points, you have to commission me any type of commission listed in my prices and for each $5 USD you spend in any of my commissions you earn 1 point, so the more you buy, the higher amount of points you get and you can get a free pic quite fast =P .

This points CANT be used to reduce a normal commission’s price. They are solely for the purpose of getting you a completely free image, not to discount prices of normal status commissions.

You can get something as simple as a 1 char sketch, and as high as a simple color image of 2 chars with a simple bg, it will all depend on how many points you want to save so you can exchange them for bigger prizes.

The highest quality is simple color, and the maximum amount of chars is 2, so in case you have more points than the highest prize you can get, don’t worry, you can save them for another image, or spend them in the moment for a second image if you have enough points =P

The points don’t expire, so you will always have that chance to get something free at some point n___n

All the costs for this images can be seen in here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9913507/

Things you have to consider for point commissions:

*This images don’t have a preview sketch, so when applying for one, be very specific because you wont be able to check for mistakes or changes.
*For this type of commissions, there is no applicable discount of any kind (no VIP, seasonal or special discount) . The prices are set and cant be discounted.
*Upon delivery if you see any mistake on your characters or a missing detail you specified on your information then I will do the proper changes without a problem. But changes such as not liking a color I used, or something you didn’t specify in the data and now want changed wont be done because, in escence, they weren’t mistakes on my part.

Images that dont apply to get points: Adoptables and Iron artist challenges (With adoptables you are purchasing the design, not a commission. With Iron artist challenges, the prices are already highly discounted, so it would be unfair for me to give points to an already big discount =P)

Well, for now this is all =P any kind of update will be done in this journal.

Hope this submission is of help for future commissioners and also for my normal commissioners as a guide n___n
Any kind of doubt or question you can always note me and I will gladly answer. Any suggestion is always welcome ^^
