h'ok, been tossing this idea around for awhile, and finally decided it was a good idea. so, take a look and see what'cha think.

Requests
not anymore, sorry.

Trades
ill still do trades now, but since im trying to raise a little money, id really really prefer commissions.

Commissions
ok, this is a new thing for me. im going to study abroad next semester for about 5 months. im going to china, and the airfare alone is easily over $1000 per person. yes, my parents are covering huge things like travel, but i dont want to rely on them for anything but that. hey, my parents are already putting me through college; im going to take care of everything else myself. so! if anyone wants to contribute to the "get inu to china and back alive" fund, id be most happy. ive never done this before, so bear with me. ill try to include examples if i have them.

Graphite:
-clean sketches: $1 - $3 [link] , [link]
-finished pieces (bg or not): $5-$10 [link] , [link]

Ink:
-lineart: $3-$6 [link] , [link]
-finished piece: $5-$10 [link]

Color: colored pencils
-one character, no bg (work great as tshirt decals!): $8-$10 [link] , [link]
-multiple characters, no bg: $10-$12 [link] , [link]
-any number character, partial bg: $12-$15 [link] , [link]
-one character, bg: $12-$20 [link] , [link]
-multiple characters, bg: $15-$20 [link] , [link]

Comics: multipanel, color or b/w
-b/w, one page, any characters: $3-$5 [link]
-color, one page, any characters, no bg: $5-$10 [link] , [link]

Animations: short
-cost totally depends on how involved it is, and the fact that i have to go through a friend to put it all together. ive only ever done one animation, and have one in the works. [link]

i will never ask for over $20 unless its something crazy like [link] that will take me a month.

think that about covers it. and now for some caviats:
-payment- ill get a paypal account if anyone takes me up on this. or ill take check or money order.
-digital file will be emailed to you.
-completed commissions are totally copyright to you. do whatever you want with it, tho id appreciate credit.
-what i will and wont draw:
- will draw: humans, animals, anthro, fantasy, violence, whatever.
- wont draw: sex or anything related, gratuitous nudity. (i reserve the right to reject commissions)
-has trouble drawing: buildings, vehicles, interiors, spaceships, etc.
-human-ish things tend to be more anime style.

note me if interested. please try to be as descriptive as possible if you dont have a reference image. i generally try to be timely with things i owe people (as in a few days at most), but i am in college. however, if i think there will be delays, i will tell you as soon as i know.

oh, one final thing and then ill stop. im not sure about shipping (US only, sorry). im not sure how much it is, but i can check if you want it shipped to you. the cost will go up to compensate, however.

so there we are. any takers?

omgoshness, I'm so blind D8 I didn't know you were taking trades as well -is stupid- v.v 'Cause I can't convince my dad to give me any money to send, cause I don't trust sending money via snail mail.

So, maybe we can do an art trade?

well, he's a character of mine, but I'm no good at drawing paws. e.e He's kinda like a gryphon, but he doesn't have wings, and he happens to be falcon and jaguar. Do you want me to note you with the details? And what kinda image do you want in return? ;)
