"you wear my face; I bleed, I bleed"

I'm ready, I'm rested, I'm refreshed! And I'm completely charged to take care of your new ideas and characters!! I truly believe that every character is awesome and original and deserves to be shown with their own story! And I'll try to help you with this in a way that is more convenient for you! You just pick one below ;)

✨ PRICES:

- USUAL STYLE (for cases, when you just want to see your character in a simple setting; sketchy and undetailed)

- ILLUSTRATION (for cases, when complex composition / lighting / realism / details are important)

❗ the price doesn't depend on the number of characters, but on the number of details/complexity

- SIMPLE STYLE (for cases, when you just want to see a simple version of your characters and nothing more superfluous)

- CONCEPT SHEET (for cases, when you want to present your character, their outfit and props)

* you can find more examples on my page by the commission tag ** a helpful post describing a right order for your refs

✨ DEADLINES: After you DM me with a brief description of your idea, I’ll tell you the approximate date when I’ll be able to proceed with your commission. But the average deadline is from 2 weeks to 2 months. ❗❗❗Always warn me in advance if I need to draw art by a certain deadline❗❗❗

✨ PAYMENT:  What: USD or RUB When: full pre-payment (when you sent me the email and we approved the art idea) Where: Lava.top (support payment via PayPal)

✨ PROCESS: You write to me in private messages on Tumblr, briefly tell me your idea of our future art, what style and what slot you want (full body / half body / bust). Then I give you my email address and you send me an email (with your Tumblr name as the topic please) with all necessary references (your character's face claim, their pose, clothes, background etc.). You describe the idea of the art in details, where it takes place, and other things that I need to know so that I can base the sketch on all that info, because after you approve the sketch, I don’t change art much in the further stages of the work, just some details. I send you the payment link on my Lava.top page. Send you the sketch. After you confirm that you like the sketch, I finish the work and send it on your email😊

✨ OTHER: - I don’t correct the art after you approved the finished version. - I don’t copy other artist’s work. - I publish every commission on my social media, if you don’t want it to be published, just let me know. - If you’re not sure about the composition idea, I can suggest you several Blender scenes with different poses/concepts/angles for extra $5 for each and you pick the one you like the most. - For significant corrections or a lot of small ones at any stage of work, an additional fee may be charged (this doesn’t apply to some small adjustments or details witch I missed). There are 3 free changes at the each stages of the work (sketch, finished version), further - from $5.

And of course I can't skip to say a huge thank you to those who commissioned and continue commissioning art from me! It means a lot! For real! This is not only material support, but also moral one, saying that I’m not wasting my time and energy in vain, that I’m moving in the right direction, that people like what I do! I can't tell how inspiring it is!! 400 commissions! I’ve never imagined that one day I would draw so many art for others! Just.. wow!! Thank you again so much for trusting me bringing to life your ideas! I truly appreciate it!😌

I think this is it, right? If you have any questions, feel free to DM me ;)  

For the splash art, I want Enigma to be the one guiding her hand to prick her finger on the needle.

Almost reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet, but here they both decide (or is it he who makes the decision?) to sleep forever in eternal bliss.

Or almost like an inverted Adam and Eve thing where Adam is the seducer.

Idk, just brainstorming

(How to commission artists)

So! Are you having trouble finding an artist to commission and are wary of the DMs that strangers send you when you make a post that vaguely describes your struggles? You’re in luck! Here you’ll find some tips on how to find an artist to commission and how to avoid ‘artists’ who are being deceptive in their offers. I will go ahead and state I also do commissions but on occasion I’ll seek out friends to throw money at for art as well. Here is some tips on what to do:

Check out the artists portfolio: Most artists will keep a consistent style regardless of how much time has passed. Ensure that all the art they’re showing off is something they’ve made themselves and if something seems off trust your instincts and don’t be afraid to investigate further. Reverse image search should generally find stolen artwork though privately posted art isn’t easy to locate.

How long has the artist account been active overall: If the account is relatively new but draws extremely well it may be an artist who remade due to issues or just a beginner starting their journey. Check to see what the oldest piece was and compare it to something recent.

The method of contact: If the artist messaged you directly out of the blue be suspicious of why if you never interacted with them. If they immediately pressure you into commissioning them it is perfectly fine to decline and find someone else. Don’t feel forced into payment. It is up to you to decide not them.

Search around: Relying on artists to contact you first is a risk that may lead to scams. There is many ways to find artists who are open to commissions just search around or check tags that artists may use!

Gen-Ai use: Always ensure the artist you pick isn’t just tracing AI generated imagery.

Payment: Ensure all payments are done via trusted methods.
