artcesius / bust + full / USD + CSC + sP
Replies
When asking for a commission, please make sure that you post the following information: what you are interested in commissioning, what currency you prefer, and any visual references you have, and any other pertinent information I should know.
terms of service
A sketch of your commission will be sent to you for approval. Full payment is due upon completion of the piece, through trade.
Price may increase proportionally to the complexity of the piece or for any additional requests. Please ask if you have any questions!
Prices are subject to change. Style may vary from the given examples. I have the right to decline any request.
bust examples
flat color | 5USD, 500CSC, 60mil
detailed | 10USD, 1000CSC, 120mil
done traditionally with Copics and digital editing (see example above).
fullbody examples
detailed | 25USD, 2500CSC, 300mil
done traditionally with Copics and digital editing (see example in the BUSTS section).
Q: How long will it take you to finish?
For busts, it should not take me any longer than a week, unless otherwise stated. For fullbodies, it
shouldn't be more than two weeks, unless otherwise stated. Please be lenient with me! I'm still a
full-time student, so I have real-life commitments. Q: Why don't you accept USD? Q: Do you do pet overlays/animals/etc.? Q: Will you do anything humanoid? Q: Will you draw a background for my piece?
Sorry, no. I can do flat colors that complement the color scheme - we can discuss this - but I won't
do detailed backgrounds because I don't feel skilled enough to do so to my satisfaction.faq
Yes! I figured out how to send invoices through a personal PayPal account. USD is now accepted!
I'm not skilled with drawing animals, so unfortunately I have to decline any requests of that nature.
The line blurs here, but generally the answer is yes. If I decline any request despite the subject being
humanoid, then I don't feel skilled enough to depict the subject to my satisfaction. I'm sorry.
slots
Note: Up to three pieces may be commissioned per slot.
My goodness, I love your art, especially the bust you did of Yuzuru's HA! I'm definitely interested in commissioning you but I thought I'd ask first -- was that also done using copic and edited digitally, or was that completely digital? :o

thank you so much! i really like that one too - yuzuru's ha portrait was done all digitally, but unlike the other digital portraits i did this one with no lineart. i just sketched it out and didn't feel like meticulously lining the sketch, given all the details, etc.
sure thing! what are you most interested in? do you have visual references that you can link me?

i reserved a slot for you! do you have a visual reference you can link? if you have any other preferences that are more specific, please feel free to tell me!
. She has obsidian hued skin with white hair, half in a bun the rest down reaching just past her shoulders; long ears stand out with strands of hair tucked behind them. She stands 5'4" and is slender in build. She has bright amber eyes lined with black with long lashes, think emo couture, but with the finesse of Instagram beauty gurus. She has a very light blush that creeps across her nose. She has a thin face with defined cheekbones; no intense highlighter needed. Eyebrows are thin at the ends but thicker more towards the center of her forehead, black in color. On her left side (face, neck, chest) are burn scars; they do not affect her eyes or mouth. I will enclose an [URL=http://s36.photobucket.com/user/Sam_Ash/media/facial_burn_scars_by_bloodonfire_zpspmxxu5er.jpg.html]image[/URL] that best describes it, but if you are sensitive to burns or blood, I implore you not look. A black <a href=)
hood adorns her head, allowing a faint view of her face
A brown cloth wrap clipped with a feathered fur ball covers her shoulders and hangs loosely over her small chest. Light leather colored olive covers her stomach and is half tucked into brown leggings. A light brown strip of leather fashioned into a belt covers her waist with a small pouch hanging to the side used for potions and herbs. A black leather strap with a dagger wraps around her left thigh, always ready to cut a bitch. Dark brown boots over ankle height with fur wrapped around the top have the leggings tucking into them, dirt crusting the bottom and side of the soles from stomping out her haters.

thank you so much for the references and the detailed description! i can tell you've put a lot of thought into your character (is it for D&D? i have a half-elf rogue for my current campaign) and i'll do my best to reflect that consideration in my artwork.
just to confirm things, i'll send you a sketch of the work in progress piece within the next few days in return for half the payment in CSC as a security measure. we can discuss semantics through smail (i.e. if you want something changed, or a different expression, or some of the colors aren't right).
Thank you very much for your response! :) Are you open to doing that kind of commission? I am okay with detailed copics, if not.
i'm open to both! i usually just work based off of customer preference ^o^ i'm assuming that you'd prefer the digital style for a detailed bust? i'll replicate my process that i did for yuzuru's HA.
do you have any visual references? and thank you!
Just wanted to pop in and say you have an amazing art style! Best of luck with everything! :)
yes! Please refer to this page
^-^ id love to order for a csc slot, detailed bust <3 and im fine with half payment for the wip first!
Yes, I'd like a digital detailed bust (and a fullbody without lineart, if possible.) Is it okay if I send the references via PM instead? :)
Sorry for the late reply, I still have half a month of final exams left djhfjdhs
i'll put you down for both, and PMing the references is fine! also i hope your finals go well! the weeks up to finals are brutal and i wish you luck!! during exam season i always stress eat like five bars of chocolate a day lol
Thank you very much, I'll need it! There are a few subjects with very brutal finals, we were told, so I really have to up my studying ante. I used to be the opposite during exams, I wouldn't eat until I'm done. But since last year I started to become a stress eater LOL
I'll send you a PM shortly. :)
hi! i tried mailing you before, but your inbox is full. i just need your approval of the sketch before i can continue with this piece! please let me know if there is anything that ought to be changed, etc.
wip
thank you!
hi there! im so sorry for the uber latereply. i fell sick over the weekend and havent been able to get on the comp much as well due to work ;w;
could you keep the hat on the head instead?^-^ he can still do the tipping hat motion but preferably not showing his top of the head hee ;; and as of right now the torso/bust looks slightly huge compared to the head D; is it possible to thin him out slightly <3 tyty im sorry im being a prick
is it too late to also request it to be lineless? :0
yeah i gotchu!! xd the torso was a bit big but i meant for the jacket to follow the motion of his arm, like a stiff suit blazer. i totally see where youre coming from though! do you want me to make his shoulders narrower? im on my mobile phone right now, so i cant make the changes you requested right away.
you can totally request for the final piece to be lineless! also i hope you feel better now ouo
I looked back at the old sketch, and I decided I really didn't like it, based off of your feedback as well as my own opinion. So I redid it, tailoring it (hopefully) more to your satisfaction! Once again, please let me know if anything should be changed to your liking, and I'll happily do so! :D
after you approve the sketch, and whenever you're ready to make the first installment, the trade lot is
