Details:
It's difficult to put a specific price on the future, so I've only listed approximate prices here. Your actual price may be higher or lower depending on factors such as desired level of detail, the subject matter, and just what exactly you'd like me to do.

If your commission totals under $50 (all prices are USD), then I require $5 of that total in advance. If the total is $50 or more, then a $15 advance is required. I only do this to discourage any mock orders; it is not an extra charge. Once I have finished with your commission, I will send you a preview for your approval. If you are unstatisfied and feel that nothing can be done to fix the picture, you are not required to purchase it, but the advance payment will be forfeit as fair payment for my time.

Once your commission is ready to be shipped, I will package it and take it to the USPS to find an exact shipping total (including any delivery confirmation or insurance if you want it). This will be added to your final total, and payment will be requested at that time. I take anything through PayPal, money orders, and cash by mail AT YOUR OWN RISK. No checks (keeping track of everything while waiting for them to clear is too much hassle, sorry ^^;).

I require at least four weeks starting from the time that I recieve your advance payment to complete the commission. The wait may be more or less depending on the waiting list and other factors. If you need a rushed order, please let me know in your e-mail and we can work out a rush fee dependent on how difficult it will be to complete your request in the amount of time you need it.

I won't do fan art in order to avoid any possible legal complications. However I will take fan characters, as long as they aren't rediculously close to the original characters (i.e. if your "character" looks like Zoro with four swords and red hair, forget it). I will do any of my own previously made characters, any characters that you hold copyright to, and of course, I can create original characters just for the commission. Further, I will do adult (horror, violence, gore, sex, etc.) content, to the limits of my personal ethics. Just present me with your idea, and I will let you know if it's acceptable.

I reserve the right to present a copy of your commission to the online community. It will have "Commission Work" clearly printed across it, and will be used for show and example purposes.

  • Delivery confirmation/insurance (recommended): yes or no?
  • Any questions you may have

About the Artist

My nickname is Mika, and I'm a 20-year-old art student. I hope to graduate with a bachelor's degree in art, specifying in graphic design. My trump cards are colored pencil, computer graphic, and watercolor paint. I also dabble in Japanese ink painting (sumie), charcoal, marker, and anything I can get my hands on.
