Commission Reference by Xathoa

Commission Reference

Xathoa

~Bust: $10
~Waist Up: $25
~Full Body: $50
~Color (Includes shading in color. No flat colors or cell-shading): Add $5
~SpeedPaint: $50 to $60 (look below for details)

~Backgrounds: +0 for colored/transparent or +$10 for more detailed ones
->Colored/Transparent: This is for no extra cost. (For colored, I will use plain colours, or color my own gradient to it. You choose the colors you want. You also choose the shape you'd like it to be, as well as the relative size of the shape to the drawing. Or you could just have the colour on the whole of the background. I can also place characters [colored or not] on a scroll background if you wish.)
->Detailed: Add $10 to the cost. ('Detailed' Backgrounds are supposed to give a vague idea of where a character is when I draw them. I do most of the detail on the character itself though, as not to take away from the main focus. Examples can be found in my gallery.)

~Character Count: 2 characters increases the character price. I do not go above two characters currently. (Bust: $10 turns to $18. Waist-Up $25 turns to $45. Full: $50 turns to $90.) Doubling characters also doubles color price $5 to $10.

~SpeedPaint Details: When you pick this option, you'll be slotted in for the next SpeedPaint day available (I do one SpeedPaint a day). You'll pay $50 for a full body character with colour (or my attempt at that in what I can do within one hour). It will only have a white background (like my other speedpaints) and -maybe- a simple background IF I have time to do so. You'll get the speedpaint as the final product for the $50 you paid. You also have a choice here; You may add an extra $10 (making the total $60) and I'll fix it up and give the fixed-up version to you as well. That would mean for $60 you get two drawings; The SpeedPaint and the fixed drawing from the SpeedPaint. After the SpeedPaint is done, I'll be uploading it immediately. Of course, I'll message you too, unless you request not to be messaged.
Rules: You must give me a picture reference (or two) of the character that best represents how the character looks. (be that your character, or something else entirely) You cannot ask for two characters in the SpeedPaint. You cannot ask for a background, as that will be decided by me and time. You may decide to pay for both the SpeedPaint and the Re-Drawn SpeedPaint before I start. The payment must go through before I slot you in for a Speedpaint day! (I don't want to work on a speedpaint you'll be paying for just to find out you don't want it anymore- or won't be paying for it...) You may also decide to add $10 after I finish, but only 10 days after it was submitted/ordered. The title of the SpeedPaint will be of the day I drew it. The re-drawn SpeedPaint will have your character's name as the title (or what you request).

~Miscellaneous: I can do other things as well, and I'll generate a price for the work and time into it, usually also based on the base prices above.
->Sketch Page: $70 for colorless, and $72 for color added. Generally these will be up to my digression on how they're formatted and drawn. I will probably do at LEAST one full body. Chances are, I'll do several sketches of a fully body, half body, and even some expressions (usually based on a character bio/description.) You can ad 2$ for color; that WILL NOT net you the whole sketch page in color. Instead I'll pick and choose drawings on the sketch page to color. May or may not have shading in the color. (which is why it's not the full $5)
->Reference Sheet: $110. This includes color. I'll need any and all information pertaining to the character. I'll do back and front, and any details that make your character special. Expect Several WIPs and questioning for preference.
->Icons and Avatars: Icons and avatars will be charged in the same sense of a bust formatted picture. But when you deliberately ask for an icon I will make sure it fits within the dimensions of a square. (unless otherwise noted) The PX I can use can be either 100x100 to 500x500. PLEASE ASK for which dimensions you want. (my current avatar was done from a 100x100 size). Coloring an icon will be $3, while backgrounds will add $5. Describe the sort of simple background you want, be that flat color, or elements representing the character (or an element they use), or whatever. Animated Icons (blinking and smiling or whatever) will incur extra fees depending on the complexity. (it will be negotiated- but know the prices will be much higher than a static picture)

What I will do:
~Original Characters
~Avatars from different websites
~Feral (regular animals)
~Your own creations
~Anthro (scaly, furry, feathered, bug, or whatever)
~Human or any variation (elf, fairie, mermaid, orc)
~Fantasy
~Natural (Artistic) Nudity
~Mild to dark blood and gore
~Fan Art
(Be wary when asking these of me, because I'm not very good at them, but I will attempt them)
~Mech or robotic things
~Children

What I will not do:
~Explicit scenes (porn)
~Explicit blood and gore (basically gore-fests)
~Chibi

I will receive payment through paypal only, please. It's rather trustworthy.

I can also personally stream the commissions for you. While ordering something from me, just request it. I'll need your local time zone (examples EST, GMT, or -5, +10, or maybe even a major city near you), and I'll use a time converter on a website to figure out when best to stream for you!~ You might need to tell me when you'll be free as well. But yeah, don't hesitate to request; I'll do my best to make it possible. (Feedback is easier to get from you, the buyer, as well~)

Reasoning for my prices: My prices are the way they are for several purposes. I tend to stay in direct contact with anyone who commissions me- asking for their opinions on how progress on the picture is going, and if they're happy with it. I ask for changes, if needed, and am willing to change things and help make-up or design things on spot. I keep communication so you know how your art is going, and you have a direct influence on how something is drawn. I want you, the commissioner, involved. I tend to give several WIPs to choose from in the beginning, as I think choice is good, and you get to pick what matches and defines your character (or idea for the picture) best. so given the amount of time and care I put into my drawings, my price should reflect that.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me (message/note or comment)!~


Purchasing from me means you agree to these conditions:
1.) You will not resell my work. They are for your personal use only.
2.) I still own the artwork. In saying this, I can show it as an example or use it to further advertise my own works. I will not sell your work to anyone else, however. Once made for you, they are also yours.
3.) You may place the art anywhere you want (including printing it). However, I highly recommend not uploading it to your own gallery. I would like people to favorite it off of my account, so I can continue to do more art for anyone else. (if you do upload it, PLEASE do link me and give me credit.)
4.) Reminds me, when you show it to others, do give me credit somewhere, please.~<3
5.) Do not save, show around, or sell any WIPs I show you. They are Works in Progress, and are not meant to be the final piece I sell to you.
6.) I want to make sure you've read these rules. For both of our benefits. To do so, when I ask what the code for reading the rules are, reply with "It's Gorram Shiny". (I can change it at my own time without notice.)
7.) Enjoy please~<3

    What would a speedpaint ( similar to https://www.weasyl.com/submission/184552 ) of my character Kastiana in her hatchling form be? https://www.weasyl.com/character/10120

    • Link

      I wouldn't do a speedpaint for commissions, only because it'd feel like I'm copping out on someone.

      But if you mean by that style, with thin lines and sketchy-ness, I could do that.

      It depends on what you'd want.

      If you want her full body be draw, it'll be $20. If you want color added, the total would be $25. Then it depends on what kind of background. Detailed or simple. I Assume Simple would be more to your liking, which adds no extra cost.

      She's a beautiful character, by the way.~

        I'll definitely have to get one sometime soon :)

        • Link

          I'm looking forward to drawing her then!~

          Just send me a message/note/thingy when you're ready and prepared!~
