Commissions update!

***

Status: Open!

***

First of all I don't want to bite off more then I can chew and wind up not being able to complete the commission...So before commissionning me, just please have a look at my gallery and make sure that what you want is something I can actually do so you can get your money's worth.

I'm not that strong at doing backgrounds, but if you really want one we can discuss it, and I may refuse if I find that it's something too complicated for me.

I mostly do characters, I can do animals...I can do one of your characters if you provide a good reference, it can be fan art of famous characters, with references of course but again! MAKE SURE that I'll be able to do what you commission me for, and know that it may take a while...I can be quick at times, but on some other times I can be quite the slowpoke, so be patient...

If I find that I'm not able to do it I will discuss it with you so we can compromise so that you can get something that you'll like, and I won't have my head torn off.

Clean blue/graphite pencil sketch: 20$
Example:

Cleaned sketch, outlined in Photoshop, no color: 30$

NOTE: This is PER character! If you want a second character, add up the cost of one character for the particular type of commission you need!

As for payment:
I request payment once the preliminary sketch has been approved . Payment will be sent through Paypal only! For the commission itself, I will upload a sized down, watermarked version to Deviantart only if you allow it, and I'll figure out a way to send you a full size, full resolution, unmarked jpeg file. I keep the PSDs, sorry! I can't print out your commission and send it to you through the mail, unfortunately. For now, the full digital image will have to do!

Here's the paypal account: mclaudeparadis@gmail.com

As for queuing I will only take one at a time. Once a commission is done I will write a new journal entry,

So I think that's about it....I'll update this journal as I progress. If you commission me, feel free to ask how it's coming along I won't mind, as long as you don't get pushy! I'll provide you with many previews if you ask for them and I'll modify things if you request it.

Thanks!

COMMISSION SLOTS

Anyone here occasionally suffer from shingles? I know it,s probably weird to have it at my age, but I've had the first outbreak when I was six, and it's reared it,s ugly head 3 or four time until now. I think this is the reason I've been feeling sick. And right now I feel the usually affected area tingling/burning/stabbing.

I'm not sure if it will rash or not yet...the only time it ever rashed really bad was the first time I got it... Any of you guys know of anything I can do to lessen the discomfort?


Update:

Got some codeine pills from the pharmacist, she tells me it should relieve the burning, but she said it,s strongly recommended that I see a doctor tomorrow...so I gotta be at the clinic at 8AM, hoping there'll still be room cuz they only take 20 people, and wait two hours for the doc to actually get there X*D

I,m just hoping I won't be stuck with that crap for a month like back when I first got it at age 6...@3@

I think I caught a cold...feeling like crap at the moment...XD I'm hoping I,ll be better by wednesday, as I'm working on Thursday XD

Back from the Oz, I had a total blast! But I believe I'm most certainly suffering from jetlag because I've now gone roughly 30 hours without any sleep @_@ Work's gonna be fuuuun! I'm gonna nom on a crapload of brainz XD

Got here yesterday morning, and so far having a huge blast! We already checked out loads of places and I took tons of pics....and magpies...OMG they're so cute! and I've yet to see a kangaroo as well (the dead one we saw on the side of the road doesn't count T^T )

Some pics should be up soon on my friend's DA account!

UPDATE!

I went to the zoo two days ago, saw a load of animals, took a crapload of photos and yesterday I saw my first wild kangaroo while hiking in the hills around Boo's neighbourhood, it was most awesome! We also had dinner at a japanese retaurant yesterday, the kind where the chef cooks your stuff in front of you and all (the guy was awesome handling those spatulas! ) And after dinner we went and saw Distric 9 (I dosed off a little at the beginning but I saw everything still XD) and it's a really good movie, I recommend it!
