EDIT:

I have to do this 10 features thing againz, other wise :iconconstantine2530: won't put me in hers.

First ten people to post on this journal get features. Simple as.


Excuse some minor formatting issues, I am really not good with this journal service


You know what this is?
This is your lucky day!
For this geological era only you have the chance to commission me to draw whatever it is you want.

I've been wanting to give your folks this option for a while, but I never felt confident enough in my art. But now I do. So here it goes.

:: First of all, what do you get? ::

You get a piece of art in my unique style delivered straight to your email inbox or, if you buy a pen and pencil work, shipped right to your door. I shall send you a high resolution version, suitable for printing, and a low resolution picture, for viewing comfortably on the PC. I withhold the right to use copies of the piece for my personal or corporate projects.

:: What styles do you get? ::

My work comes in three styles
Pen and Pencil

Full Colour
[link]
soft shading
[link]

And of course it all comes in the mildly quirky Crusader style of representation. I'm just talking about colours here. I do not do manga style, marvel style, or anyone else's. I do my own.

:: What is the Pricing Plan? ::

Here's the fun part, where I talk about money. (moneh!) You will find my rates surprisingly good value. For the benefit of most I shall use US dollars for the rates here, as you should all know the exchange rate from your own currency to it (although it does appear to be plummeting in value).

For a Pen and Pencil picture, the rate is $5 plus $2 for each additional character and $5 for a background.

For a Full Colour picture the rate is $10 plus $5 dollars for each additional character and $10 for a background (unless I use a photograph, in which case it is free).

For a Soft Shading picture the rate is $20 plus $15 dollars for each additional character and $5 for a background (although it will be block colours, not fully shaded. Pictures can still be used as a background for free.)

For comics like Jayden and Crusader or Privateer a special rate can be organised, depending on the complexity of the comic. It would probably be a surprisingly large amount, it can take anywhere from 4-12 man hours to get a nice comic together (at minimum wage where I live that'd be between $40-$120 dollars)

I place a $10 surcharge on all fanart. I will do it... but I wont like doing it. (aside from the extra $10!)

If you wish to have your Pen and Pencil shipped to your home I will require you to tell me beforehand, other wise it will probably have the reverse covered in physics notes or similar.

:: How Would You Pay? ::

Currently, I don't even have a bank account. Thus, for the moment, that means no paypal option. For the moment I am going to ask for checks, or cash, in the mail to my address.

Adrian McIlroy Speed (Crusader1089)
Greensleaves,
Reading Road,
Harwell,
OX11 0LU
England.

Do not send me junk mail. I, or more accurately my parents, will hunt you down and crucify you.

I would add that this will make people in England the people who have less to spend on these, to begin with, as flying mail to distant parts of the world can get rather expensive.

You also have the option, for the moment, of paying me in the form of a subscription. Warn me first however, as I would much, much prefer the money.

Once I open a bank account with a decent amount of cash in it I will start a paypal account and you can commission me without sending your money half way around the world.

While I understand I could get... well, zero offers, I will be ready and willing whenever one of you wants something. Questions? Note me, or respond here. Or email me at adrian.mcilroyspeed@fsmail.net (checked infrequently).

Dude...you only have like...15 watchers...0___o


I have almost one hundred and thirty, and even I wouldn't ask for money for a personalized story. I get requests, and I do them before my watchers are now my friends.
You're talented, but not so much that I would pay 5 bucks for a drawing. No offense.
