character artwork

Social media icons, headshots, busts, portraits and illustrations are all lumped in to "character artwork". I'm pretty flexible and find most things can fit into the following options:

Chibi
$25

Extras
Props, complicated clothing/armor, and extra limbs (excluding wings, which do not incur extra charge) start at +$10 depending on the complexity.

something else?

Do you have something in mind that doesn't quite fit into the other options? A really-high effort meme, a PNGtube avatar, or a cover for your music CD? If you have something a little different or more specific that you'd like to see in my style, feel free to drop me a line!
I'll let you know if I think it's something I can do and we can discuss pricing.

Stickers & Emotes

Digital-only stickers/emotes, intended for instant messaging apps such as Telegram.
I can also make emotes for apps such as Discord or Twitch. They take about the same amount of work so I price them the same, but emotes have to be legible at much smaller sizes than telegram stickers, so please let me know what platform you'll be using them for!

reference sheets

While I absolutely love making ref sheets, if you don't have an older ref sheet and this is your character's first one, please bear in mind this is not a service to design a new character from scratch and provide as much detail as possible! This can include a detailed text description and visuals for specific markings or inspiration. You can use free websites like coolors to generate a palette that includes the hex codes for the colors as well!
If at some point you would like to change your character's design, please feel free to reach out and we can arrange an edit for a ref sheet I've made for you-- not for free, but much cheaper than the cost of a new one!

miniature painting

Miniature painting is actually one of my favorite things to do! I've been painting miniatures for over four years now and find it extremely rewarding to bring characters to life in the real world in this way.
At this time I am only interested in painting one or two miniatures at a time, with more of a focus on bringing a character to life as opposed to painting an entire army. If you already own a mini you'd like painted, then you can just have it shipped to me, but if it is a model that you would like to have 3D printed, I am willing to 3D print the object for you for a small fee if you can provide me with the STL of the object. I use the AnyCubic Photon Mono, which has a maximum build volume of 165 x 130 x 80mm.Feel free to ask for a quote on a piece at any time! Here's how my pricing for miniatures works, as it is different from my usual artwork:
Commissioner pays for shipping or non-refundable 3D printing fee. Then once I receive it and work begins, I calculate how long the piece took to complete, and then I invoice for the final amount plus return shipping and send the completed piece back once it is fully paid for. Of course we will discuss what the maximum potential cost for the piece will be before anything is shipped, so that you are not billed for more than you are expecting to pay.I price my work by the hour and by the size of the base (approximately). Most "Small" pieces, about as the size of a typical tabletop RPG player character, take me around 3 hours total of work. Turnaround time is about 2 weeks to a month.

terms of service

Payment Procedures

before payment

The commissioner (henceforth referred to as "you") must provide the following to the artist (henceforth referred to as "I" or "me") :- Visual reference of your character (unless you're commissioning a reference sheet because you don't have one, which is understandable)
- Description (or reference if applicable) of desired pose, facial expression, mood, etc.
- Your preferred e-mail address to receive invoices, if you are not already contacting me via e-mail or your preferred invoicing address is different from the e-mail address through which you have contacted me

payment procedure

- Once the commission price is agreed upon, I will send you an invoice via PayPal. (You do not require a PayPal account in order to pay a PayPal invoice)
- Payment is required upfront in full. Work will not begin until the Invoice is paid. Exceptions can be made for projects that exceed $300, for which I will accept short-term payment plans.
- Once the invoice is paid, any changes to the commission which would decrease the price of the commission cannot be made.
- Payment must be completed as soon as possible; failure to do so may result in a loss of your slot.
- If multiple people are to have characters in a single commission (a group commission), ONE person is responsible for paying the price of commission. It is up to the group to determine how they wish to split the commission before choosing one of them to serve as the Representative of the Commission group (henceforth assumed to be you). This creates a more streamlined line of communication between the Artist and the Commission Group.
-If commissioning a painted miniature, instead the commissioner will be invoiced and expected to pay once work is complete, and the finished work will not be sent back until payment is complete. This is because this work is priced by the hour.

refunds

Refunds, full or otherwise, may only be provided under the following conditions:- Work has not been started.
- I am not able to complete the commission within a reasonable timeline.
- Partial refunds may be given at my discretion depending on how much of the commission has already been completed.

you, the commissioner

- You must be 18 years of age or older to commission me. If you are below the age of 18, your parent or legal guardian may commission me instead.
- You are not to send a payment before an agreement on the total price is reached, and may only send it through my invoice once it is sent to you.
- You may not claim to be the artist of, edit, or reproduce my artwork. Commissioning me does not entitle you to commercial license of my artwork, nor may it be used for NFTs or other such cryptocurrency tokens.
- You may resize or crop your commission IF credit is placed somewhere appropriately visible. For example: "icon by @butterball_moo" in your Twitter bio if using my work as your Twitter icon. Furthermore, I would be happy to resize and crop for you in order to preserve the image quality and you are welcome to ask.
- You may re-upload the commission on your own accounts if you also provide a link to this page (my carrd) or to the most applicable of my social media handles (e.g. @butterball_moo on Twitter) in the upload's description.
- You may request that your commission only be uploaded/sent to you privately. Otherwise, I reserve the right to post it with the rest of my art as part of my portfolio.

i, the artist

- I reserve the right to decline any commission.
- If asked, I will give updates on the commission's status, such as estimated start or completion dates or changes in previously established timelines.
- I reserve the right to cancel a commission and issue a refund (if applicable) if I deem correspondence has become exceedingly rude or hostile.
- I reserve the right to upload completed commission pieces onto the sites I use, unless you have requested to keep your commission private.
- I reserve all rights to what I create and may use commissioned artwork for promotional purposes or as seen fit, unless you have requested to keep your commission private.

"Adoptables"

- You may not claim to be the artist of, edit, or reproduce my artwork and/or use it for commercial use. Do not redistribute artwork without the watermark or signature, if it has one. While you do have full rights to the DESIGN upon purchase, your rights to the artwork ITSELF is limited as outlined above.
- Designs may only be resold for the amount they were originally bought or less, UNLESS additional art of the character is being included. Gifts or trades can only be regifted or traded.
- You may make any changes you like to the original design after purchase. However, a link back to me in some way, including the original design somewhere, would be appreciated.
- Do not trace, make edits or alterations to an image I have drawn. If you change the design, please make a new piece of artwork for the character without editing or tracing the art from me.
