Design Service Inquiry
A couple of things really quick: I'm very much looking forward to hearing about your project! Before you invest your time filling out this questionnaire, allow me to briefly discuss my approach to client work and what kind of projects I take on. I want you to have your eyes wide open as to what kind of professional service you're soliciting.

First, this questionnaire is an involved process because it allows me to collect and document as much important information as possible in order to prepare us for a successful project. I want to be able to do my best work for you!

There is no budget field on this form, nor do I display any rates for design services. In our preliminary discussions, I want us to concentrate on the project goals and what will enable excellent results. I take pride in doing great work, so that's what I focus on, not trying to compete by way of price.

It's very important to me that I am using my time well, so I have to be very selective about the clients that I take on. If you have a small budget, you and I might not be a good fit for your project. If you don't have a clear idea as to whether your budget is small, you and I may not be a good fit.

If your focus is on working with an experienced professional dedicated to crafting something that will be effective for your needs, and if that's something you're willing to invest in, you and I will likely be a great fit for the need of your project.

Who are you and what are you about? Please link to your social media profiles and briefly explain what kind of illustrations you need.
Art Commissions
I offer tailored commissions for individual consumers. Whatever we settle on, format wise, each illustration comes with a timelapse video, and a non-narrated full-length video of the production of your commission. Pretty sweet deal, right?

Bear in mind that all commissions you solicit from me are subject to approval. I generally don't work with material that exceeds a PG-13 rating. Excessively sexual, vulgar, crude, shocking, or violent subject matter is likely not going to pass muster. Also, right to refuse service and all that.

My commissions are a service that is strictly available only for existing characters with established designs for non-commercial purposes. If you would like help designing your character, or have a commercial purpose in mind for your art, I'm happy to help you via the "design services" section of this questionnaire instead.

I don't display rates or prices up front because I'm working to make something special for you that exceeds the commodified norm of the commission market. I make use of a contract that protects us both when you engage my services so we both know how to get along with each other and how to proceed if something bad happens.

As long as you're cool with that, let me know how I can help you!
Which social media platform did you come from?*
What's your handle there?*
Do you want your commission to be public or private?*
Public means that I'll share it on the social media platform you came here from, as well as feature it here on my site. Private means that, while the content is still hosted on my site, it will be made private between you and me. Only you and anybody you give permission to will have access to your request. I may also make certain requests private at my own discretion.
- Public is okay!
- Please keep it private, thank you.
References*
Please link to any references available for your characters so I know what I'm doing for you. Write "Check Attachments" if you're uploading instead of linking.
If you can't link to your references, feel free to upload them here. (optional)

Max. file size: 256 MB.
Drawing Requests
When you make a request you get a single 12"x12" character illustration, a timelapse video, and a non-narrated full-length video of the production of your request. Pretty sweet deal, right?

Bear in mind that I can't guarantee your request. Between my tight margins of time and personal code of integrity, not every request submitted can be produced.

Bear in mind also that I generally don't work with material that exceeds a PG-13 rating. Excessively sexual, vulgar, crude, shocking, or violent subject matter is likely not going to pass muster. Right to refuse service and all that.

As long as you're cool with that, let me know what you'd like to see!
