Hey folks! I’m mollyjames, and I specialize in bringing your original characters to life; no reference required!*
Prices listed are per character. I do not offer discounts for including multiple characters.
Comic pages are 6x9in at 600 dpi. Please bear in mind the space you have available when ordering a page. Most comic pages average 5 or 6 panels, and usually cap out at 9 small panels. You may order additional pages at $250.
Free space: pay me to draw art I wanna draw. You wont have control over what I draw, but you will get a special thanks (if you want)
*I mean, a general idea of what you’d like is always helpful, but if you’re not sure, I’ve got no problem winging itHere’s what I need to get started! Include this in your first email to [email protected] and things will go quicker:Order type:
Character name and references:
Short description of personality and expression/pose you want:
Paypal email:
How you want to be credited as the commissioner:If you are ordering multiple characters in the same order, please make sure your references are labelled correctly!If you are ordering multiple order types with the same character, you can send it all in one email chain (e.g., one icon and one colored sketch).If you have multiple order types involving different characters, please send a new email chain for each (e.g., one set of icons, one model sheet, one group order).For model sheet orders, see starting prices here.For everything else, see starting prices here.For multiple characters in a commission: I usually add on a discount of ~20% off if characters are interacting or overlapping in some way. However if your characters are in a line-up or you ask me to create the composition in a way that can export each into an individual image, this discount will not apply. Or if their poses are especially complicated (like a wrestling hold).Estimating a group commission: Let’s take an example of 6 characters for each applicable order type. For icons, that would cost 87 USD (18 for the first, 15 for 2nd-4th, 12 for 5th+). For limited portrait, that would be 185 USD (35 for the first, 30 for 2nd+). For colored sketch, it comes to 330 USD for a line-up (no overlapping at 55 USD each), or potentially 264 USD with overlapping. For full renders, it’d be 630 USD (no overlap at 105 each), or potentially 504 USD (with overlap).For full body group orders, additional discounts may apply if there is some background elements obscuring some characters. These will be considered on a case by case basis.DO NOT SEND MONEY BEFORE I AM READY TO BEGIN. Any payments sent outside of the paypal invoicing system will be considered a generous tip.These commissions are for personal use and are purely non-commercial. No reselling, using in advertisements, or reprinting for wide distribution. You may print it for personal use on a smaller scale.I maintain rights for self-promotion (posting online).There is no obligation to remain in the queue if you have not paid yet and may drop out when needed. Rescheduled orders are moved to the end of the queue.If you miss emails when your order comes up, I will send two reminders. If I get no word back, I will remove you from the queue. Future commissions may require you to pay fully upfront regardless of order type and queue length.It is your responsibility to submit adjustments before the next workday. I will continue working without you otherwise.I have final say in what constitutes “reasonable changes.”Refunds are only given of the difference of the “unused” standard rate, including administrative work.If you do not provide a means of crediting you as the commissioner, it will be credited anonymously.How to Order
