Commissions Journal. by *lizjowen on deviantART

_{Guess what guys? I am now going to start doing commissions ^_^
I've decided to help my parents to raise money for university and college, which both cost a bomb >.< I have't really got a job, so gathering money is pretty hard. So I'm offering cheap prices so that I could (hopefully) get more commissions in order to help my family ^_^
My commissions shall be fairly cheap during the holidays, but when the holidays are over and Sixth Form starts I shall raise the price. This is because sixth form is a hard place to be, and my studies would generally come in the way so I'd have less free time. But the free time I have shall be spent on these commissions.

Okay! Here are my 'commission rules':</b>
* What I will not draw: Mecha, extreme blood and gore, battle/fighting scenes, offensive materials, animals.
* What I will draw: Anything else that has not been included above. This means I do Yaoi/Yuri, slight ecchi but not hentai, fan art...just ask me what you'd want me to draw and I'll tell you whether I could do it or not ^_^

* Because it would be my work I have the right to upload commissions onto DA.
* All commissions I do here are for personal and non commercial use. So I do not wish to see my art on anyone else's site.
* You commissioned me because you like my art. It would be upsetting for me if you suddenly decide right after I start colouring to withdraw your money. I'd be so upset that I won't give your money back, because - as said in commission method below - I had done the sketch and you agreed to it. So therefore you liked it and wanted it done.
* It may take me a while to do your work, so please do not keep writing comments/notes saying: "Are you done yet?" It doesn't help. In fact it would only slow me down due to pressure
* As you can see, I do not do sketches or linearts. This is because I would feel reclined to finish it.

The commission method:
* You pay me half of the full price first, then I do the sketch. I take a picture of it - because I do my sketches traditionally - and then send it to you via email.
* If you like the sketch you then send me the other half of the full price. You would also tell me what colours you'd like me to use.
* When I've finished your commission I shall send you the original version, with only my signature - not my website - on it. It would be at a printable size.
* I shall place it up on my DA site for all to see but at a smaller size.
* And we're done!
