-opened boutique

NEW!! Prices are up because of several reasons:
My computer died, I bought a mac, and now I don't have photoshop on my computer. I do have some old version of photoshop on my mom's laptop, but my scanner was hooked up to my old PC... sweatdrop It's complicated. At the moment, if I want to scan something I have to scan it into one computer, then transfer it to another and it's just too much work.

~~RULES~~

One: I won't draw anything past a mild PG-13. Meaning:
No nudity
Nothing past light kisses
nothing TOO gory. When you describe the commission to me before we settle any deals, I'll tell you if it's not do-able. Yes, I do couples, and yes, I do gay couples. For some strange reason I've been asked to draw lesbians a lot, so by now I'm pretty much used to any weirdness. wink

Two: There is a down payment of 5000G for anything past 20000G. Anything less than 20000G you pay half the payment up-front.

Three: PLEASE type so I can understand you, and don't be rude or piss me off, 'cause then I just wont do it, period. (Or I'll actually do it and NOT give it to you, wheee) The likelihood of this happening is only possible if you've got less than 90IQ. stare

Four: Any payments you make are FINAL. Don't ask me for something if you don't have the money, and don't expect your money back if you 'change your mind'. Chances are I've already started work on it, and I won't give you the actual un-watermarked version unless you pay the full price.

Five: Please no quoting the front page!! xp

Six: Any and all watches on your avatar will be set to Hammer Time in the drawing, unless you request otherwise!! xd

Seven: New rule!! If you've got something to say, say it nicely. I won't tolerate rudeness. I'm doing this for GOLD, not actual money. If you want me to take you seriously when you throw a hissy fit over a late commission, try paying me real money.

Uhh, rules are subject to change within DUE REASON. I'm not going to go a-wol on you, but I'd like to see that my art goes into honest hands. domokun

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Thadine is my username, though my real name is Renee (with an accent). I live in (sunny, preppy) southern California, with my mom. I'm nineteen and I'm currently attending jr. college... because it's something to do, really. sweatdrop I've been drawing and taking art classes all of my life, and I hope to major in some kind of art, if not studio/fine art.
I've been taking Japanese classes since I was 13, but I'm not fluent! Anyone who has taken a high school J-class will know it's not very intensive. I had a (semi-private) tutor as well as high school classes, though, so I consider myself pretty good at it. Last semester I took J-class 201, but this last semester I couldn't fit the only class available into my schedule. Thus, I took French. Which, besides the fact that I like French, sucked. razz
As far as drawing techniques and favorites go, I favor the macabre and surreal.. but I also love fantasy, drawing angels (wings are awesome, yah?), and practicing drawing the human proportions. I'm fairly good at landscapes, too, and I took a watercolor class focusing on flora and fauna a while back.
I work in traditional mediums just as often as I work in photoshop, though it takes me longer to finish. I'm pretty fast, though! My favorite method of making art is to listen to a song over and over again and try to draw/paint how the song makes me feel. I'll often do this for hours at a time without eating, hopefully finishing the piece in one go.
Anyways, that's me! Links to my blog and deviantart are below:

Here you can also find what's been going on in my life recently. My weblog has some stuff in it, but it's mostly entertaining anecdotes and rants.

Previous Commissions and Sample Art!

These are previous commissions, i.e. anything that I've done for gaia as far as avatar commissions. These date back to when I first started gaia, so some of them are pretty old. mrgreen

CONTEST SUBMISSIONS:
WARNING: Some of these are NOT work/school safe. They're not too graphic, but some do have blood and/or are mildly disturbing. (You can kind of tell which ones are... lol.) The first three are for the Personification Contest (Fear, Nightmare, and Madness, respectively), and the fourth was a collaboration between me and a friend of mine, Kissitbetter. We won second place for that contest!! heart

What I can Commission for You!

Yeah, I know, it's expensive... sorry. I don't want to be overloaded again. But this way you can expect the best out of my work, since it's worth so much.

15K Package:
- full color (optional)
- transparency (optional)
- 500x500 pixels
- original character option

This package usually comes in the form of waist-high, or if you'd like to shave off a chunk of the price, I do head-shots, too. If you want more than one character/avatar drawn, however, you'll want the 30K Package.

30K Package:
- full color (optional)
- transparency (optional)
- 500x500 pixels
- couples option
- fully customizable
- original character(s) option
- full-length body pose option
- group option

This package has a number of options; it can be of multiple characters/avatars, couples, full-length body poses, etc. If you want a group in a full length body pose, though, it'll cost an extra 3k, reason being, I hate drawing feet. xp

If you'd like anything bigger than that, it's obviously not for your avatar. If it's bigger than 750x750 I expect no less than 50K for it; if it's under that and bigger than 500x500 I'll expect 30K.

Prices are subject to change, but once you order you keep the price that we agreed on, of course. If it gets to be more of a demand I might raise prices, but other than that..

If you ordered from me, just PM me... if you haven't paid me in full, that's fine, you don't need to. The wait was just too long for me to expect that. If you already paid me in full, expect one of the two packages listed here, even if you ordered something smaller. biggrin

OPTIONS
This is my explanation for the options available in the packages and what I can do for you. biggrin It's good when you tell me specifically what you want, so read this!

transparency option: this option means your image background will be transparent, meaning the image background will not be simply a white square. This is good for different color backgrounds on your profile pages and such. However, the transparency GIF form takes away some of the smoothness of the edges. Also, if you want an OC drawn, I suggest not doing the transparency.

Color option: Again, if you want black and white, or just a sketch, you can go with that. A sketch will cost you at least 5k less, because a lot of the work goes into using photoshop, re-inking, etc.

Couples Option: If you want a couple drawn, than you'll need this option. I can do a number of poses, and if you have any reference pictures, I'd love to see them.

Original Character(s) option: This means I'll do an OC for you. Often enough if you ask me for a character sketch I'll ask a lot of questions. A description is necessary, and references would be a help.

Full-Length Body Pose option: This option is only offered in the 30K Package simply because it's a bigger challenge for me to make the entire body proportional and it's movement/angles correct.

Group Option: Much like the couples option. You should explain to me what each person's relationship is to the other. 3nodding

Standard Procedures for a Commission

Here I'm going to walk you step by step though what goes on when you request a commission. That way, you'll know exactly what you're getting into, and you won't get confused! (That's only if you read this.)

First Step to getting a commission is putting in a request here at the minishop with the orderform below. Ask any questions, and if you're still up for it, state you want a commission and what package you want, and a rough idea of what you'd like.

Second Step is I'll reply in the thread. I'll confirm what package you want. This is where you'd describe to me what you want it to look like, and any pictures you might have. (Extra pictures if it's your avatar, if any.)

Third Step is I'd confirm I can do so.

Fourth Step. Now, you wait, for the approximate time I told you, and only AFTER that should you PM me saying, "Hey is it done?!" of course, if you just want to chat that's fine. (Keep in mind if it's smaller it gets done faster. Especially if I'm not drowning in commissions.)

Fifth Step! After that I'll give you the SAMPLE watermarked image. You'll pay the whole payment, and then I'll give you the un-watermarked and tastefully watermarked versions, plus the transparent version, if wanted. Then we're done. Not so bad, huh?
