Weasyl is here
DeviantArt is here
~ Do you just do Flight Rising stuff?
No! Send me your other characters, too.
~ What's taking so long?
I work full time on the 3rd shift. (1am - 7am), along with other freelance and my own personal projects. I try to work on commissions every day, but things happen, and the only sure days I am able to work are my days off.
3D work is an entirely different beast altogether. Please, for 3D art especially, allow for at least a month for completion.
~ What do you base your prices off of?
I base it off of the average time it takes me to complete a piece, rounded up to hour for the sake of buffer on complex characters.
Painted images take a full day of work, and as such site currency is not a viable payment for losing an entire day to a commission.
~ Why are your prices so expensive?
I'm just going to direct you to the following links. These artists have a much better response than anything I could write. They're really good reads for people who are making art and people trying to commission artists.
Beezeeart, lots of helpful link

~Why is 3D work so expensive??
Same as above, except 3D takes longer, requires different software, and a different set of skills that took special training.
