Hello all

Just kicking off a wee thread to offer my services    I'm a traditional artist (illustration/portrait), and available for commissions, or pony trades! I've (recently) primarily done MLP illustrations, and portrait illustrations of special animal friends for people. I do do more than horses(!), just recently I've done a wee dog for someone, but as that's currently in the post and the person who requested it hasn't seen it yet, it'd be a bit rude of me to stick it up just yet! For details about commissions, see below, or PM me with any queries!   


Commissions are: open
Mediums: ink/watercolour pencil
Cost: $38NZ per illustration, or a trade of ponies to that equivalent value (include cost of your shipping of them - I wouldn't charge that on top!)
Payment: I accept Paypal (or if you are NZ, direct payment into my bank account). Or... ponies in my mailbox! Want List: http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,287202.0.html
Shipping: Shipping (and packaging) is generally included in price, but some exceptions apply for overseas trades if over a certain amount. In the case of trades, you ship the ponies, I'll ship the picture, and no monies are exchanged!


Other important stuff: I work on very good quality paper, and take a lot of care when packaging the artwork to minimise damage in transit. Currently artworks are sized 18x26cm. Turnaround (once all details are finalised {i.e. specifics buyer would like included, photos provided to work from if applicable etc}) may take a couple of weeks (excluding shipping). I will keep you posted on progress!


Lastly, I do keep electronic copies of all my work, and reserve the right to use completed works in my portfolio. Artwork must not be duplicated or used for commercial purposes without my permission, or by prior agreement. Heavy sounding stuff, but just safeguarding everyone! (I really am very friendly!)

Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff.
