RULES

There are a few simple rules to follow:

• 1. Be polite.
  
  
• 2. Try to express yourself in a way that a non-naitive Englsih speaker would understand you. This includes - but is not limited to using correct spelling ("you" instead of "u" - "you are, you're" instead of "ur", we're not talking about typos here but purposefully wrong spellt words) and grammar.
  
  
• 3. Read through the first page carefully, before asking any questions. There is a FAQ a few posts down the page, too.
  
  
• 4. Use the orderform. Post it to this thread. Don't PM me your order.
  
  
• 5. Don't beg
  
  
• 6. Have your PMs enabled, so I will be able to PM you your picture
  
  
• 7. Don't buy anything you can't afford.
  
  
• 8. Don't make me feel like talking to a wall. Please read through the Rules, Ordering Info, prices and FAQ at the very least, if you want to order.
  
  
• 9. Don't fill out the "In a nutshell" line on the orderform with descriptions of poses, etc, you want your avatar to be drawn in. Such things belong in "anything else". Please also refere to the FAQ!
  
  
• 10. Don't stretch the page, leave rude comments, quote entire posts from the front page or do anything else that would offend any other shop owner, too. (Common Sense)

- Monochrom: Monochrom picture, please specify which color(s) you'd like it to be, at most two, and if you chose two please specify one as the "dark color" and the other as the "bright" color. If you don't specify any color, I will do what I feel like.
- Regular Color: Full color, cell-sade like
- Simple Soft Shade: A soft shading that takes more time and thus is more expensive

Also you have the option to add a simple gradient background to your image. Say so in the "Anything else" caption in the order form and specify the 2 colors the gradient should include. This does not change the price.

- the size of the picture
- the quality of the line art
- the difficulty
- and the style prefered
To order a coloring please fill out the order form, describing the kind of coloration you'd like (soft, hard (note: the samples in the shop are "hard" whereas most of everything you can find in my deviantart gallery (http://el-chupacabras.deviantart.com/) is "soft" wink , the colors that should be applied, etc.) and the price you would offer for the coloring.

Templates: I also do templates for minishops (breedables), they cost more and you'll have to give me your e-mail address so I can send you the template as a psd file. To order a template coloring give a sample of the line-art and offer a price. Also descrbe the way you'd like the coloring to be.


Specials:

If you want anything extraordinary, like two versions of a picture (like the two couple pictures in the samples, one with a bone helmet, the other without), say so in the "Anything else" caption of the order form and offer a reasonable price for your special in the "Price" line. 3nodding

- RANDOM OBJECTS - (like weapons for example): If you don't want to have a character drawn but some sort of object describe the object and offer a price. 3nodding

Also: If you have any other extraordinary comission, just post it to the thread! heart

Ordering

This is the procedure this will go:
1. post your order to the thread, using the order form.
2. start the trade after I confirm your order, if there's anything unclear, ask in the thread or PM me.
3. After you started the trade you will be put on the waiting list. (the first five people get their picture in less then 10 days, the next 5 will get theirs in less then 3 weeks, and everything after that has to wait. So check the waiting list, before ordering so you know how long the picture will take. 3nodding ).
4. When you are first on the waiting list I will do your pic.
5. After I finish the picture, I will confirm the trade and send you the finished picture via PM.
6. You confirm the trade. Failure to do so in the next 7 days after recieving your art results in being reported.

Order Form (use this):






FAQ

Question:What's the "in a nutshell" in the orderform for anyway, and why do you insist it should be filled out correctly?
Answer: It's actually a pretty important part, because it tells me the core of what you feel your character expresses. If - for example - I were to see an avi order and the avi looks like the biggest sissi I've seen in my life, I will draw it like that. If, however, the "In a nutshell" line says "strong, badass, dangerous", I will draw it like that, and not like the biggest sissi I've ever seen, simple, ne? Guess what happens when the "in a nutshell" line in this theorethical case wouldn't be filled out, or be filled out with something like "up front please"? Right, the biggest sissi I've ever seen in my life - up front. This is actually help to make both our lifes easier, to help the understanding, and for me not to lose focus on what's important about the character.

Question:Can I tell you which pose I want the chracter in? Will it cost extra?
Answer: Just go ahead, doesn't cost extra. But please keep in mind, that you might end up with a better picture if you leave the pose picking up to me. 3nodding

Question: Does it cost more if my avi is packed with stuff (otherwise known as "cluttered" wink ?
Answer: No. The downside may be, that so many details in the pic might not make it look that good, though, and some thing may seem funny.

Question: Is there anything that you will not draw?
Answer: I will try my best as long as your character is vaguely humanoid. And as long he picture rating is PG-13, for anypictures above that => Pm me for Real Life Commissions.

Question:I'd rather like a commision like a pic I saw on your deviant art main account (http://el-chupacabras.deviantart.com), and not a doodle, how do I order?
Answer: PM me for a Real Life Commission. (by the way, RL commissions come in printable high-rez size).

Question:Hey, thanks for the picture! May I resize it? Or maybe put some sort of text on it? Or integrate it into some sort of design?
Answer: Yes, of course! After you recieve your comission you can always feel free to resize the picture, put tags, speaking bubbles and whatever you like on it. Any none artistic edits are 100% fine with me, as long as you don't claim the actual picture as your own

Note to self: the next three banners are for the special offer (mainly). They come in three different sizes and are hosted at Photobucket, so you can simply replace them, when the special offer changes without changing the url. Please remember to a) create new banners for future special offers and b) to upload them at Photobucket account of old minishop!

Feel free to use these banners, too. When the special offer changes the image will be replaced, but the img url will stay the same. 3nodding
