  • "Quick" options only need a very short description (or none) and are finished in a couple of weeks. These must be paid in full before starting and include only one progress update before being finished.
  • "Portrait" focuses on the character while environment remains simple. These may take about one to two months to finish.
  • "lllustrations" are fully detailed scenes and take a minimum of two months to finish.
  • Additional "main" characters may add 50%-75% from base price. If a character needs to be designed from scratch there will be an additional fee.
  • Here's a sample of stages and updates I send during the process! Changes can be made during Thumbnail and Sketch stages. After those, corrections are very limited.
  • I send up to three Thumbnails, then I'll send a link to a PayPal invoice which can be paid in full or in halves. The remaining amount should be paid after Sketch stage is finished.
  • If you've got a limited budget and are not sure if I'd accept your request, do send me an email anyways so we can start talking :D

Subscription

If you like my artwork enough that you want to give me money directly, you're awesome and can send a one time donation via PayPal HERE!

Or you can subscribe as if this was Patreon (with less fees) and join my Discord server. You don't need to talk to anyone ever, not even myself. Either way, I'll think very positively of you in silence.
Also, you'll have priority for commissions: request a slot at anytime (via email or DM), see offers/discounts before I post them publicly and access Subscribers-only offer.
Two days after payment has been processed, I'll contact you to the email linked to the transaction with an invitation link to join my server. Or you can message me first to my email [contact@valentinapaz.com] with your discord handle and I'll add you!
