Please be aware that prices are for reference only, individual pieces will vary depending on complexity.

prices listed are based on an image 7 X 10 inch big, 300 ppi resolution. (2100 X 3000 pixels)

ALL commissions will be private, i will not upload the image anywhere unless the client agree.



1. How much does a commission usually cost?


Character busts like this one  Commissions: Nazomi bust by Wen-M is $100, in color.  


Single, full-body character with no background:  

- in gel pen, or digital sketch, conceptual stage like these  Birtday sketch: Kionji by Wen-M
one of these is about $73, depending on complexity



- in digital color sketch style: starts at $125 and goes up according to amount of detail

this is a $125 sample: Birthday sketch: Alcanzana by Wen-M (2100 X3000 pixels)

this is a $210 sample: Commission: Shinchou by Wen-M (2700X3600 pixels)

two characters in this range of details Commission: Mikhail and Yavriya by Wen-M (3600X3600 pixels) would cost about $360:

for the sake of scale on price and detail, something like this Anima: forest lights by Wen-M  (5100 X 2400 pixels) would cost about $1,200 (yes, i know...)


-in digital ink and clean style like this commission: Erienne by Wen-M would cost about $310 for each character, with no BG, the BG you see here is a previously used BG. inevitably something this clean takes more time to do...so theres no avoiding the price being higher.


2. What is the commission process like?

a) Contact me with a note here and we'll discuss the details

b) After the details are ironed out, we'll confirm the commission. partial payment will be required to start the process. This deposit is not returned if a sketch is emailed to the commissioner.

this deposit is 50% of the full amount (deducted from total price later) payment amount under $100 is paid all up front. 

c) Client confirms that they like/dislike the sketch, and decides the next step of the commission.

     in the case they dislike the sketch, they can cancell the commission.  

     in the case they like the sketch but wants some changes; The remaining of the estimated price is paid in order for the remaining work to be completed.

     A deadline is agreed upon between me and the commissioner.

        
d) commission is completed and emailed to commissioner

  

    A full quality 300 dpi jpeg image is emailed to commissioner.  commissioner reviews it and ask me for any editing, reasonable editing is complemented without additional payment. How much is "reasonable" depends on the pricing and complexity of the image itself.  

3. payment methods
    Only paypal payment is accepted at this time.  please let me know who you are when you pay and let me know where to email the image when its done.

4. commissions I do not accept simply because I am no good at them.

yaoi
yuri
nudity is ok, but not with any matured content/concept

5. do you do tattoo/weapons/item commissions? what are the pricing on those?
the prices on these vary depending on complexity

weapons/items (on various size, since they come in many sizes by their type, all at 300 dpi resolution)
in sketch form: $11 and up, in digital color: $52 and up
sketched weapon sample:  weapon sketch sample by Wen-M digital colored weapon sample:  Anima: summoner daggers by Wen-M items sample:  Anima: Rings set 1 by Wen-M

tattoos (typically at 6X9 inch, unless smaller/bigger size is needed)
$83 up, requires full payment before any work is done.
tattoo I've designed:  Tattoos. no 6 by Wen-M tattoos. No 7 by Wen-M tattoos. no 3 by Wen-M
