COMMISSIONS

Regular Commissions

Celshading


Portrait $250
Illustration $350


Painting


Portrait $500
Illustration $750


  • "Portrait" focuses on the character while envirnonment 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 may be an additional fee. I can give a quote once all necessary details have been discussed.
  • Here's a sample of stages and updates I send during the process! Changes can be made during Thubmnail, Base and Clean Sketch stages. After those, corrections are limited to color and materials.
  • I send up to three Thumbnails. After one is approved I'll send a link to a PayPal invoice, which can be paid upfront or in halves. The remaining amount should be paid after Clean Sketch 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

Notice: New slots will be open/started in mid-late June.

Speed Commissions

SpeedCel


SpeedPaint


Bust $95
Half $165
Full $215


  • These are less detailed versions of the options above, and are finished in two weeks or less after being paid. To keep up this speed there're some limitations:
  • Payment must be sent in full.
  • Up to three characters are allowed per picture. These will double or triple the base price.
  • Description has to be very short and general, a couple sentences at most. Or none at all and leave everything up to me!
  • No progress updates, revisions or corrections (unless I made a mistake that was very obvious.)
  • Characters need to have one or two clear visual references.
  • "SpeedPaint" focuses on the character only, leaving environment elements nearly abstract.
  • "SpeedCel" are mostly based on scenes from a variety of movies and tv series.

    • To order a slot send me an email to contact@valentinapaz.com or fill out this form!




    Leave empty to give me full artistic freedom!
