Thanks to a really wonderful new friend of mine, for a short time I'm going to be offering collaborated commissions with lineart and inking by myself, and wonderful digital colors by my new friend `rydi1689! Her gallery is full of beautiful digital art pieces so go and check her out! The funds for these commissions are going towards a small trip/ late honeymoon for my husband and I since we're financially pretty strapped, but are really hoping to attend the New York Comic Con/Anime Festival in October 2012. We've never been on a trip together and this is an event and place that we've always wanted to go to. (Neither of us have ever been to New York City even though we only live a few hours away, and neither of us have ever been to a major convention before.)

We're still keeping commission prices as affordable as we can since we know that most people out there are also a bit behind financially, but any help is extremely appreciated. Please Note: These commissions are only going to be available for a limited amount of time since `rydi1689 is on break from school, and once she is back in school she will more than likely be too busy with her studies for art, so if you really want one of these commissions then let one of us know right away so we can give you an open slot! The commission prices are as follows down below:

Full-Body One Character Picture with Simple Background - $10 (+$1 for a more detailed background)

Full-Body Two Character Picture with Simple Background - $12 (+$1 for a more detailed background)

Full-Body Three Character Picture with Simple Background - $14 (+$1 for a more detailed background)

Any more addition characters in the picture add $2 to the price, and another $1 for a detailed background.

Mecha / Robotic Full-Body Pics - $14 + $2 per character for Mecha and/or Robotic characters (Because of complexity).

Anthro characters are the same price as human characters, unless they are thoroughly detailed, in which case there may be an additional dollar or two added onto the final price. Show us references of your characters in advance so we can see their complexity.

PayPal: My PayPal address is still ewilcox77_68@hotmail.com, so that is where all commission payments should be sent to.

Things that I will not draw: Absolutely no graphic hentai (some nudity and intimacy are allowed, but nothing drastic or explicit), graphic fetishes (something playful or harmless is fine, but nothing explicit, like S&M, etc.), strong yaoi or yuri (hugging or hanging out together closely are fine, but that's my absolute limit on those, sorry, and absolutely no incestuous pairings), graphic gore or violence (blood is OK, entrails are not), and of course, absolutely nothing that is hateful towards a certain group (aka nothing racist, sexist, homophobic, etc.).

You can either comment on this journal or Note either myself or `rydi1689 if you are interested in one of these commissions. As I said before, I'll be extremely thankful/grateful/appreciative/excited for any sort of help that I can get towards this trip, because going on it means a lot to us, so thank you in advance to those of you who are willing to help! Also, we are both negotiable on prices if you are a little strapped for cash or want to do payment plans, I promise that we won't bite if you want to discuss it! Also if you order more than one commission, we'll shave a few dollars off of the second/additional ones and give you a good deal. I do prefer if you can pay up front or at least give half of the payment for the commissions (just because of the actions of past scammers), but if you talk with us I'm sure we'll work something else that everyone will be happy with.

I'll be opening five slots for now, but I can always do more if we generate enough interest in these:

Collab Commissions Slot #1: ~azarah - One Character Commish [Unpaid]

Collab Commissions Slot #2: ~LadyIverin - Ezio Auditore (Assassin's Creed) and Hot Pants (Steel Ball Run) in a Venetian-style setting. [Paid in Full]

Collab Commissions Slot #3: *LuigiUser - Himself, Princess Daisy and Princess Peach [Unpaid]

Collab Commissions Slot #4: *LuigiUser - Himself, princess Daisy and Princess Peach [Unpaid]

Collab Commissions Slot #5: Open

Also, here are some examples of `rydi1689's gorgeous coloring, so you can get an idea of what the finished product will look like after we've finished it. Go to her gallery and give her some love too, she really deserves it so much!


(Go check out the rest of her gallery too, she has many, many many gorgeous pieces in there! )

(PS: I'm trying to avoid Journal Skins for a bit because I've noticed all of my journals have been cut off really badly and I'm starting to wonder if that's what's causing it, so let's give the blank one a try. ;<<)
