Commissions: Bonus Features/Costs

Dear Patrons,

This Patreon has slowly but steadily been growing. Thank you for your support and please let others know too!

I have recently learned some advanced tricks and techniques from industry veterans like Nyl, Prime3DX, and Rigid3D - I shall be incorporating this knowledge into my future artworks, one of which will actually be posted later today. With this increase in quality, I think this is a suitable moment to talk about some bonus features and pricing of my commission work.

As I'm sure you all know, all the tiers except the basic "Ensign" tier are entitled to request commissions from me, every month, at no extra charge. Now, please let me describe both the basic and bonus features (at extra cost) of such commissions -

• Character(s) with clothing and expression(s): Free.
• Scene lighting: Free.
• Character(s) standing pose(s): Free.
• Character(s) pose(s) other than standing: £1.5 extra per character per pose.
• Scene background (highly recommended): £1.5 extra in total.
• Environmental assets (like bed, chair, handcuffs, and other props): £2.5 extra in total.
• Accurate clothing fit (physics-based): £2.5 extra per clothing item per pose.
• Personalized assets (like special make-up, hair, skin, body moisture, body hair, etc.): £1.5 extra per asset.
• Multiple camera angles: £1.5 extra per angle.
• Work-in-Progress (WIP) updates: £0.5 extra per update.

Here, "Free" means that the corresponding cost is already included in your monthly Patreon subscription fee. Even if you "deck out" everything (considering 1 physics-based clothing item, 1 personalized asset, 1 extra angle, and 2 WIP updates), my commissions start at £20, which is still below the current bare market minimum of £21. Websites like Reddit will even take down one's art job listing if one advertises commission work at a rate less than £21 (It has happened to me) since Reddit claims that such a low price hurts the art industry. I disagree - It is my vision to provide quality artwork at prices below the current trends since I believe (especially, as a broke student) that everyone should have the financial means to get a commission. Think Xiaomi VS Apple!

If there are any of you who would like to upgrade to a higher tier and request a commission, please message me about it so that I can guarantee that I can make the commission with suitable quality, before you upgrade.

If there are any of you who are entitled to a commission already (and want it) but have still not informed me what they want, please message me.

I shall keep this post updated (in case I make any changes) and as always, I thank you all again - both old and new Patrons - for your continued support!
