A place to start

You don’t need
a perfect
reference sheet.

HeroForge screenshots. A Pinterest board. Three paragraphs of lore and one very specific coat.

Send what you have. Part of my job is figuring out how those pieces fit together into a character that feels like yours.

Let’s work out the details
Pine Nut’s early linework, with handwritten notes about tools and the companion’s design.

Before you ask

A few
good questions.

Something else on your mind?

Tell me in your request ↗
How long do commissions take?

It depends on my current queue and the complexity of your piece. I’ll give you an estimate before payment. Hard deadlines need to be discussed first and may require a rush fee.

What references do I need?

HeroForge screenshots, clothing references, Pinterest boards, old sketches, or written notes all help. Tell me which details need to match exactly and which are just inspiration. You don’t need a polished reference sheet.

How many revisions are included?

Two revision rounds during the sketch stage, plus minor color and detail corrections during rendering. Major changes after sketch approval may cost extra.

Can you design from a written description?

Yes. Tell me about their appearance, personality, outfit, and must-have details. Scattered notes are a perfectly good starting point.

Do you draw non-human characters?

Yes. Fantasy races, anthro and furry characters, creatures, and monsters are welcome. Please ask first about especially unusual anatomy or highly complex mechanical designs.

Do you draw NSFW?

I accept adult NSFW at my discretion, generally with a +150% to +250%+ surcharge depending on the content and complexity. Please describe the request before payment. Explicit or fetish content needs to be discussed first.

What will you not draw?

I won’t draw sexual content involving minors or characters of ambiguous age, sexual violence or non-consensual content, sexual content involving real animals, extreme gore, hateful propaganda, or NSFW depictions of real people. I may decline anything I’m uncomfortable accepting. See the terms for the full subject guidelines.

Can artwork be used commercially?

Yes, when discussed and purchased separately. Commercial use adds 100% to the artwork price. Tell me how you plan to use it. Personal commissions don’t include merchandise or resale rights; NFT and AI training uses are not allowed.

How does payment work?

Once we agree on the scope, quote, and estimated turnaround, payment is due in full before I begin. Submitting the form doesn’t require payment or guarantee a slot.

What files will I receive?

A full-resolution PNG through a download link without image compression, with a transparent version when applicable. Layered or source files aren’t included unless we specifically agree on them.
