THE DEVIL'S IN THE DETAILS
If you are interested in me doing a sculpture or painting for you, please don't be afraid to e-mail me. We can talk about it. I'm extremely flexable and all prices are negotable. One point I need to make: These are original pieces of art, not a casting or reproduction, so the price is going to reflect that, plus the time and material, and the shipping is considerable also. Size and complexity are the main determinants as far as price is concerned. I'm using the sculpures on my web page as a reference. Most of them are around 8 to 10 inches high and are moderatly complex and would be priced between $100 to $150.
Gag...wheeze...choke....pass out
!
WAIT! Don't leave yet. I think these are
reasonable for originals and I am not making much off of them when you
consider the materials and the hours of work involved. If you don't believe
me pop over to Gremlins in the Garage
and look at the prices of unassembled, unpainted, cast resin kits that
are one of hundreds or even thousands of kits just like it.
See, I ain't some cigar smoking guy from Jersey lookin'
to separate you from your cash. Besides, I can do anything you want (within
reason), just give me an idea of what you want done. The more detailed
the better for both of us. Sketches, descriptions, sizes, colors, the more
the better.
As far as spooge content is concerned, well, I prefer
to keep it R or less. Not that I won't do R, or even X, but there is a
point where I will refuse. Extream violence, especially against children
or women won't even be considered, nor will pedophilia(sex with children),
rape or what ever else a sick mind can come up with. I have no problem
with nudity or sex among consenting adults( human or otherwise, I am a
furry, remember).I prefere doing "cheesecake", more than that
and my comfort level goes down and I enjoy it less. I'm open for whatever,
but a little taste goes a long way.
DON'T ASK ME TO VIOLATE COPYRIGHT LAWS. If you
want a anthro' female mouse lying suggestively on a piece of swiss cheese,
that is a ok. But Minnie Mouse (© ® and anything else to Disney
(please don't hurt me)) lying on a piece of cheese is not okay.
If I do a sculpture, or any art for you, remember you
are buying the art, not the right to copy it and resell it. So please don't.
Recasters are scum.
Don't expect to get your artwork instantly because I
gotta work for a living, sleep, eat, clean up, shower, do laundry, you
know, live.
I'm going to take a picture of any art I do and keep
it in my portfolio (so maybe I can quit my day job and do this for a living)
and maybe put it on my web page, so consider yourself warned.
Now the really bad part: I have to be paid
at least 1/2 up front before I start on any project!
(Hello?.. where did everyone go?...all I hear is crickets)
The reason is simple, there is a great deal of work
and materials involved, and being vastly underemployed, I can't afford
for you to change your mind. I'll do what I can for you to make things
right, but I can't do all this for nothing. Best to make sure I know exactly
what you want before you send your money.
Having said all this, I don't think I have to worry about
actually having to do any commissioned artwork. :)
