Commission Status: Closed

Last updated: November 5th 2022



🆕Click the above Ko-Fi link for Ko-Fi Commissions!Hello and thank you for checking this out! Below is listed the general pricing of commissions intended for personal use only. I am currently not yet confident enough to tackle any commercial use projects. Terribly sorry for that!Prices listed are USD only and I accept payment through Paypal.Invoices will be sent upon completion of the sketching phase of the project once you are satisfied with the project thus far (I can send it earlier upon request). I will require a minimum payment of half the total cost during this time; though full payment is fine as well! Otherwise, the second half can be paid once the project is complete.Contact Info: [email protected] / @nateharmonica on Twitter (DMs not always reliable)

I don't forsee a long waiting period between projects, but I must ask for patience as I do work full-time and only have so much time in the week for drawing; so please bear this in mind if your project requires a deadline! A week in advance should suffice as long as the project is not terribly complex.
Prices are subject to change depending on the amount of interest.


Chibis + Creatures

$20 - $30
Cel-shaded. Usually little detail. Comes with transparent and white backgrounds (or solid color of the customer's choice).

Price varies between character complexity. The first three examples are $20, the fourth is $25, and the last three are $30.


Bust

$30
(+$15 per additional character / +$5 for addition of a small companion)
Comes with transparent and white backgrounds (or solid color OR gradient of the customer's choice)

The first piece is a $35 example, as it includes a companion. The last piece is a $45 example.


Half-Body

$50
(+25 per additional character / +$5 for addition of a small companion)
Comes with transparent and white backgrounds (or solid color OR gradient of the customer's choice)

Half-bodies start at the head and end at the waist or mid-thigh. The first four pieces are $50 examples. The other two are $75 examples.


Full-Body

$70
(+$35 per additional character / +$5 for addition of a small companion)
Comes with transparent and white backgrounds (or solid color OR gradient of the customer's choice)

Full-bodies are, as the name implies, from head to foot. The first three pieces are $70 examples. The fourth is $105 with the inclusion of the second character. The fifth example is $110 with the inclusion of a second character plus a creature (assuming there was no background).
**NSFW pieces can be reduced in price if the character(s) involved are not wearing clothes OR the full price can be applied to the addition of a background.


Additional Charges

"Painting Style"
+20% of the total cost

Pieces will be cel-shaded by default. "Painting Style" utilizes more colors, blending, and shows the brush strokes. This is more time-consuming and requires additional fees as listed above, but it is an option if you like this coloring method more.Example 1: $66 ($50 for half-body + $5 for companion + 20% ($11) for "painting style"
Example 2: $48 ($30 for bust + $10 for bg + 20% ($8) for "painting style")
Example 3: $90 ($50 for half-body + $25 for additional character + 20% ($15) for "painting style")
Example 4+5: $42 ($30 for bust + $5 for bg + 20% ($7) for "painting style")


Backgrounds
+$5 - $45

This is kind of a tough one to gauge as I'm not totally confident on backgrounds. A $5 background involves vague details while a $45 demands excessive detail, or the background is the primary focus of the image.Example 1: $5 (Utilizes several colors and meant to look like spotlights)
Example 2: $15 (There's a bit of detail with the moon, stars, embers, and different colors, but not terribly complex otherwise)
Example 3: $20 (Somewhat detailed due to the flowers in the foreground + trees and sky in the background)
Examples 4-6: $45 (Background is the primary focus and/or includes tons of detail)
The second example under "Painting Style" is a $10 charge with the vague shapes of a lake in the background.

About

Heyoo. You can call me Nate. I like drawing and playing FFXIV. Sometimes I play other games too, like Pokemon and other Final Fantasies.Anyway, I'm not that interesting, but feel free to check out the art I poop out from time to time. That makes me happy. I also enjoy RPing so feel free to hit me up on that sometime.‼️‼️ Though I keep discourse to a minimum on main and prefer not to actively use this title, I am technically proship and I will unfollow/block antis/fanpol or anyone who elevates the voices of their ideals. It's okay to be uncomfortable or have traumas but don't tell people how to consume fiction. The block and mute functions are free.

Contact

Twitter is still my main go-to, but I'm being a bit more active on Tumblr again as well.

About the Shrine™

The Zenos Shrine is... well... what happens when you love a character a Normal Amount. Before you ask me A N Y T H I N G please for the love of all the Twelve, Hydalen, and Zodiark the One True God read this first.

Q: How long have you been at this?
A: Well, Stormblood came out in 2017. It started with the collector's edition figurine and went downhill from there. It was only a kiss... it was only a kiss...
Q: Where did you get ___?
A: Okay, this question is the entire reason I made this FAQ. Do not ask me this question. Do not ever ask me this question. As stated in the previous answer, this has been an ongoing project since 2017. Probably about 85%-90% of the things pictured are no longer available for purchase, and even if they were, how am I supposed to keep track of everything? I've been nice in the past and tried to google a few things for people, but this really is a tremendous waste of my time. Sorry, I know this is rude as hell but I'm... tired. I can try to compile some recommended shops sometime if people are interested but otherwise just check etsy, check storenvy, check redbubble, ebay, follow XIV merch accounts on Twitter, follow MY Twitter if it comes to that! I always RT the shops I buy from.
Q: What about [insert] plush??
A: Literally every plush was a pre-order that took half a year or more to get here. Rare exceptions are ones found on etsy and ebay.
Q: I love that tablecloth! What about that?
A: Good news! That's one of mine. You can find it here. This one is the scarf option.
Q: ...okay but where did you buy the lights?
A: Target.
Q: If I see any new merch get posted that you haven't retweeted, would you like me to DM you?
A: I kind of only prefer this if you're my friend. The people who are close to me typically already know which artists I'm purposely not supporting, and if they don't it's much easier to have that conversation with them than someone I don't know very well.
Q: I noticed you bought something from [insert artist] and you probably shouldn't support them in the future because-
A: Stop. I don't care.
Q: What about [insert artist] that I happen to know has ideals that conflict with your own?
A: Yeah there's a couple of those products in here. Those purchases were either accidental or regrets. Ah well. Ya live and ya learn.
Uhh I think that's it unless any more questions pop up. Ok truthfully, most of these have never even been asked but I wanted to nip a few things in the bud while I was at it.

Here's a few places to look to get your collection started:etsy
eBay
Inprnt
Redbubble
Yahoo JP
