Tanker (tangk'er)n. 1. A dusty, grease-covered, dirty, bright eyed, fuzzy faced, beer-drinking, underrated, over-worked, oversexed, little s%#* who can take a Tank and do more battlefield damage in ten minutes than a grunt squad can do in an day.

Greetings! If you have come to this page, then you’re looking to commission an artist, or so I hope. Well you’re in luck, for this is a list of artists who accept commissions, their prices and some details of what they will do and how you can pay them. This is the second page of artists you are able to commission.

All prices are quoted direct from either the artists journals, websites, or direct from them. They’re in no particular order. These are all excellent artists, and they would not be in this list if they were anything but.

Note: Some information has yet to be determined, and this journal is a living document. In other words, it changes every so often, due to changes in price, additions of aritists, information, etc. So if you don't see the information you’re looking for, just go ask the artist in question.

The one thing I don't maintain on here, is if the artists are currently open or closed for commissions or how to contact them. Those change so frequently that it's better to just go to their page and check for yourself.

If you would like to be added, please feel free to ask. The more information you have available, the better, and if you can provide that information in the handy format seen below, that would make things a lot easier for me and for your potential commissioners/clients.

Help put the word out also. Add the link to this journal somewhere in your own journal. Here is the link for you to copy: [link]

There is another journal out there that is in the same vein as this one. Please, by all means, check out those artists as well. Some are posted there that aren't here, and vice-versa.

And now...onto the artists!

These are artists I'm considering commissioning myself, or are artists who have requested to be placed on it. They are NOT in any order what-so-ever. It's as I found them. Cept for me. I'm just tossed in there because I should be.

What he/she does:
Not Stated.

Prefers:
None Stated.

Styles?
Not Stated.

Tools of the Trade:
Not Stated.

Price?
Probably one of the more specific price lists out there. As stated by her journal:

Price depends on the content and complexity of your comission.
Will draw realism, semi-realism, anime, etc.
Will draw PG-13 and tasteful nudity. No porn or excessive violence.
Can't do mechs or the sort
Super-detailed bust lineart: $5
Waist-up lineart: $7
Lower-thigh and up lineart: $8
Full-body lineart: $10
If you don't want it inked, you can subtract $3
If you have a freakishly detailed outfit, up to $3 will be added.
If you want a colored picture, multiply the cost of your lineart by 2.
If you want two characters, multiply by two again. Three characters, multiply by 3.
Backgrounds cost more money, depending on detail.
So, if somebody were to want...
4 characters waist-up, colored would cost 7x4x2= $56
Send a note or post on this journal if you want something, and be sure to give LOTS of details on what you want.
Don't pay until she lets you know that she has time to do yours. She'll be working in the order that she gets requests. When you make an agreement, she wants you to pay her half the price. When she finishes the picture, pay her the rest.

Payment:
She accepts paypal and snail-mail cash/checks. Paypal is at kanshou_inuyasha@yahoo.com

What he/she does:
She can take two commissions at any one time. Variable on amount of time she has.

She does not accept commissions of licensed characters (eg. Teen Titans, Legolas, Sailor Moon etc). This applies to characters belonging to other artists, unless consent is given in which case she would need an email address of the artist so she can contact them and confirm their approval.

Nor does she accept imitating someones style or changing her style.

Prefers:
She is willing to do anything from character portraits, scenes, and concept art to realistic portraits (eg. of a member of your family). Also open to trying new things and all you have to do is make a suggestion when you commission her and both the client and the artist may talk about it and maybe come up with something to suit your needs.

Styles?
Her artistic ability includes but is not limited to human-like beings of any kind (eg. elves, mermaids, people with additional cat ears/tails etc). She can also draw a variety of animals, but this must first be discussed before she agrees to anything.

Tools of the Trade:
She works n both Traditional and Computer Generated artworks.

Traditional:
watercolour, coloured pencil, lead pencil, mixed media (eg. markers, watercolour and gaouche)

CG:
Open Canvas, Adobe Elements

Price?
As varied and as broken down to provide her commissioners as much variety and ease as possible, she even shows how much she would cost in Euros, US Dollars, and British Pounds. From her journal:

What he/she does:
What, you thought I'd leave myself out of this thing? Well...I did. But this is a NETWORKING journal...so it makes sense that should be in it so that there can be a little...I dunno...networking involved.

Anyways, I work mostly in photomanipulations, short stories, and coloring of already created linearts.

Prefers:
I prefer to do photomanipulations, as they're easier for me, as well as short stories, but I have no problem coloring a lineart for you. I can also photomanipulate as many images as you want from your own gallery into a wallpaper sized image, though price will probably vary depending on the number of images you request to be used.

Styles?
I can color in cell-shaded technique, or in a more realistic style that is better used by =deffectx.

Tools of the Trade:
Paint Shop Pro 8/12
Ulead PhotoImpact 8/12
Wacom Graphire tablet
Microsoft Word

Price?
There are three things you can commission me to do; Coloring, Photomanipulation, and Writing.

Coloring job:
If you want an image colored, for about $15-20 you can commission me to do so.

There is no difference in price between cell-shaded and the =deffectx style of coloring. Quality difference maybe, but for now I can do either style as requested.

Photomanipulation job:
Prices will vary depending on complexity, but I'm not looking at it being more than $50 at the very most. More likely it'll be in the $5-$35 range (and even more likely to be in the $5-$10 to be specific), but I'll work that out with you when you commission me.

Writing job:
I will take a $10 commission to write a roughly 4-5 page short story of your character.

Payment:
Paypal, potentially money orders via Western Union

Just about any kind of digital sketching and coloring, although he retains the right to deny a commission due to the request dealing with something he will not do, such as drawing nudes or hentai.
