Commissions (with Examples)

Journal Entry: Tue Jan 9, 2007, 4:35 PM
I am now accepting commissions for non-commercial artwork.

Based on how long I expect a commission to take, here are some price estimates. These prices may vary if your request is particularly tricky or complex in some way.

Pencil Sketch
One Character: $15
Each Additional Character: $15
Abstract BG: $5
Full BG $10

Pencil Shaded
One Character: $30
Each Additional Character: $20
Abstract BG: $8
Full BG $20
(example)

Inked Lineart
One Character: $45
Each Additional Character: $40
Abstract BG: $20
Full BG $35
(example)

Inked with Block Colors
One Character: $50
Each Additional Character: $40
Abstract BG: $20
Full BG $35
(example / example / example)


Cel Shaded
One Character: $75
Each Additional Character: $50
Abstract BG: $30
Full BG $45
(example / example)

Moderate Rendering
One Character: $100
Each Additional Character: $60
Abstract BG: $30
Full BG $45
(example)

Fully Rendered
One Character: $140
Each Additional Character: $80
Abstract BG: $40
Full BG $65
(example / example)


Half the commission fee will need to paid up front as a deposit. At the moment, I am only accepting payment though PayPal.

After receiving the deposit, I will do a very rough sketch and then show it to you for approval. If you accept it, I will finish work on the commission. If the rough sketch doesn't look right to you, I can do another one and you can select between the two sketches.

After I finish work, I will send you a low-res version for approval. At this point, you can ask for small alterations to be made. After I receive approval, you can send the rest of the commission fee and I will send you the complete, final version.

Commissioned artwork may be used by the buyer for non-commercial use only, such as for a personal website. If you want to use it for commercial use, you will need to purchase the rights to the image which will cost extra, depending on the extent of the rights.

Please send me e-mail at commissions@dovsherman.com request a commission.

Dov, have loved all the work I've seen of yours. Hopefully soon we may see more. I wish you the best in all your endeavors and may you see the benefit of what you give.

Well, at least she's OK physically and that's important; it goes some way to relieve some of the worry we are all feeling for her. I just hope she doesn't get exhausted to the point of breakdown. I know how hard it is for anyone to get work like this as my sister is an illustrator. I do wish both Dove and Jade much success and happiness, and that we'll see both of them back here soon.

We love you, Dove, take care, honey...

Claire

Thank you for posting this, Deadeyeii

Glad to hear he is ok overall. Thats the bad thing about the net. When a person disappears, there is not way of knowing what happened.

Thank you very much for that news! I just wanted to know that Dov is OK. I am a huge fan and wanted to help Dov, if there was any need, since Dov did such a great commission for me right before disappearing.

This was posted on Sticky-Site back in September. I hope this helps answer some questions.

"For anyone curious about Dov/Dove's whereabouts, this message was posted to the Otaku World forums by another artist and friend of Dove's, Jade Gordon, at the end of June:

"Well, Dov and I have had a really hard time making ends meet for a long time (years), so we've both been trying to dedicate ourselves to paying rent, and keeping up survival (and truth be told, Dov is far more able to gather an income, and I generally don't have enough suceess to make a difference). That takes an enormous amount of energy and time. I think there comes a time when no matter how much there is a desire to work on OW, it becomes impossible when so many other more immediate needs have to be dealt with.

Dov was also in school for a few years, and graduated in March. Part of the graduation process for the school we went to is a really intense portfolio preparation, and by the end, you literally are only sleeping every 30 hours or so because no matter how much you've prepared, there just isn't enough time in a day to meet the requirements. The last time Dov updated the site was because at that time, I had a job, and was supporting Dov temporarily to allow her to take a break from school to catch up on everything.

During school, she learned a new sort of programming, and was working on some projects with that, and they ended up being useful for her portfolio and potential jobs. So, there are a few Add-ons out there by Dov for a popular game, and that took some of her time.

Immediately after school, Dov was offered a job, and has been working 12 hour days. It doesn't leave Dov time to do much else but sleep. The big deadlines should come to an end shortly, and a normal schedule may return, or maybe the contract will be over and Dov will be back to looking for stable income, we don't really know yet.

So, between the stress of school, bills, and work, not to mention many issues of Dov trying to support me when I'm unable to work or pull in any sort of income, Dov has hardly even been willing to look at OW, and I don't think she's checked her e-mail since last year (I only found that out myself a month or so ago when I tried to e-mail her).

I don't know what else can be done, as I'm certainly in no position to help with things that would free Dov up right now, and it'll be months before I can possibly get disability or other tools to help me be less of a burden.

I wish I had better news for everyone, and that I had any sort of power to help. At least I can say, Dov is alive, and physically well."

I hope I haven't violated Dove's privacy by posting this, but all of us have been worried about her to some extent or another and I figured this might help calm some people down.

Dove, we love your work and we all miss you, I hope you update this site at some point telling us how you are doing. We miss you at Sticky-Site too.
