Commission and Alter Samples

All card alters are custom quoted and may vary from the starting price based off the medium used and/or the image requested.

I don't do "artist's choice"  because I might choose something you don't like.  The alter is for you, not me, so it is very important for you to choose what the alter is. Please always give me a description of what you are wanting.  What you "see" when you think of an image may not be the same thing I "see" when thinking of something.  If placement on the card matters, sending me rough doodles helps immensely.

Please keep in mind that I don't do overly sexual or violent images or quotes.

Front alters can be in the art box only, the text box only, or a combination of the two. Please let me know what you do and don't want covered on the front of a card if it's important.

Alters on proofs can be on either the front or the back.

Alters can include characters, objects, background changes, thematic styling, clothing changes, and other themes that are meaningful to you.

Alters can be in different mediums:

Sharpie sketches on the front or back with or without metallic or other highlights. - These are less detailed and not always suitable for all alters, but look really great with the right image.

$75+     Sharpie sketch on front of card.

$95+     Sharpie sketch on the front of a card with metallic/color highlights.

$120+   Sharpie sketch on the back of a proof.

Color paint marker (like POSCA)  - Medium level of detail and color choice.  Markers only blend a limited amount and aren't ideal for subtle details but can be eye catching.

$150+   Change/add either a character OR the background.

$225+   Change both the character and and the background.

$300+   Color marker full art on back of a proof - generally has little or no background color.

Oil - Highest level of detail and color choice.  This allows for fine details that marker doesn't and can have any colors in the image.

$200+   Add/modify a character or object(s)

$250+  Change background

$325+  Modification to character AND background change (art box or text box only)

$200+  Extension - no background change

$300+  Extension with background change

$475+  Full front, or back alter

Prices listed are starting estimates for a requested alter and are a good guide rather than an exact quote. Complexity of image, number of objects/characters, and size of alter will the vary commission quote.
