commissions
by ghost
thank you for your interest in my commissions! in this carrd you will find pricing, examples, and my terms and conditions. please follow the links to the information you seek! by commissioning me you agree to all information within this carrd, so please read carefully! :)current commission status: open!
please provide as much info about what you want from your commission as possible! you can receive up to two changes to the sketch before you will be charged a change fee, so PLEASE know what you want and how to ask for it before you commission.
change fees will be determined on a case-by-case basis depending on the type of commission requested, and no more than three additional changes will be permitted. if you request more than the two free changes, you will be notified that further change requests will incur a fee, and be required to pay the full commission price, including change fees, at that time before further work will be done.
i reserve the right to refuse commissions and make changes to these terms at any time.
tips appreciated but never required. 💕
please have an email or social media you check often to provide correspondence, so that i may check in with you and also to send and receive progress and reference images.
payment will be by Paypal, Zelle, Cash App or Ko-Fi in which buyer pays any and all applicable fees, which are not included in base commission price. buyer will be informed by preferred contact of all costs&fees, as well as provided a rough, watermarked sketch (likely a photograph of my ipad for protection of my work) for approval prior to being asked for payment. once sketch&price are agreed upon, no refunds will be offered and no further work will be completed until paid in full.
buyers may pay commission prices over $100 in two parts, but no work beyond the sketch will be completed until it is paid IN FULL. turnaround from full payment received can be up to six weeks, unless otherwise discussed (i do not currently have a visible queue site to provide, but if buyers would feel more comfortable with one i can attempt to figure one out. forgive me i'm an old man and don't know how a lot of this works haha).
if you have payment restrictions or would like to work out a payment plan, please let me know ahead of time. we are all broke nerds and i would love to work with you in a way you can comfortably afford, but i too am a broke nerd who needs to make dollars.
THANK YOU!! 💕
by commissioning me you agree to all terms, including those subject to change at my discretion. please refer to this page before commissioning me, and again before paying for your commission, as no refunds will be offered once the agreed amount is paid and work has begun.

pricing is subject to change based on individual commission requests, but things that will most certainly incur additional cost are things like heavy amor, intricate character designs (i'm looking at you ffxiv characters /affectionate), challenging poses, little to no references, and minimal communication/"artistic license" type requests. legit i'm here to draw what you want, pls give me all the information.
you will be informed of all costs from base price to additional fees for extras prior to invoicing, but feel free to ask questions at any time, i love to yap. :)
also i am so sorry all the examples are persona or helluva boss i get brainrot and that's all i know how to draw wwww for more/better view on most of my art (the images on carrd are so very small), check out ghost.hotel.art @ instagram !

i am quite new to this type!! for the time being these will be limited to hellaverse art only, as the style is quicker and my current brainrot so more enjoyable for me. this pricing has a degree of wiggle room, but is priced high to start bc the idea of getting paid to draw a comic is mildly terrifying to me and there is a LOT involved, from paneling to scripting to actual art which frequently involves backgrounds.
$120+/page (max 6 panels)
this cost is the price of a full-body art plus a background at the sketch level, but in comics it includes flat color as a bonus (see the final image in the gallery above for reference, flat color means no shading and this applies both to the characters and the background).lineart + $30/page
shading (in color or b&w) + $60/page
detailed backgrounds limited to 1-2 panels per page and are subject to additional fees, i'm trying to pay myself a fair hourly here lol
additional panels managed on a case by case basis.

all commissions can have a simple color splash background included at no cost! buyer must request a color/colors, sometimes i forget to ask and if you don't remind me i will assume you do not want this.
$50+
this cost is additional to the existing base commission price, and will increase based on complexity and perspective. i am still pretty new to building characters into environments, so i am willing to work with people to make this an affordable option. i delight in the chance to practice, but they are very time consuming. additionally, if you add a background to your commission it can add up to two weeks onto the completion time of your piece.
Original Characters
i'm honored you trust me to draw your brainchild! these do however affect price, as they frequently involve some form of design creation to be drawn and i can't just google a bunch of different angles to figure out how they should look. design elements and complexity (i'm looking at you ffxiv au ra) will incur an additional fee not to exceed 50% of the pricing tier of published character works, to be determined by me. these additional fees will be communicated prior to work beginning and are non-negotiable.

i'm not gonna post any visual examples here bc i am too lazy to censor everything but i draw for helluva boss i definitely am OK with nsfw. i have full body, waist-up, and comic examples at the ready, you need only ask. if you commission me for this option you are certifying that you are 18+ and have a maturity level necessary to discuss sexual themes in art so i may draw you your smut effectively. this doesn't incur any extra fees and will scale based on the type of commission requested and the number of characters involved.IF YOU GET NSFW ART
for the love of god do not mention it anywhere when paying me!!! it'll get me flagged bc we live in a dystopian hellscape where people are afraid of sex in media.
