ENTIQUA

Status: Working on April queue. May waitlist full!
June comms TBA (may take a break)

Hello! Thanks for checking out my comms!To commission (or waitlist), please contact me via twitter or bluesky DMs, or email me at [email protected].
Discord is also an option - tell me your discord name via one of the above methods and I will add you!-- You may also DM me via tumblr or instagram, though I may not notice immediately.
-- Note that until bluesky DMs add image support, image communication will need to take place via another platform.WAITLIST INFOA waitlist is available for approximately 1 month's worth in advance (ie. If I'm working on Jan comms, I will have a Feb waitlist).
Note that the waitlist month refers to the month I aim to start the commission, not necessarily when I will complete it.
It's okay to waitlist even if you haven't decided yet what your request will be!

**There's a chance I may accept commissions of these categories depending on what the specific idea is. No harm in asking!Regarding commission types that are not listed below (ex. character reference sheets, simple animation) feel free to send a message and discuss it with me!

ILLUSTRATIONS

Prices listed represent the base price.
There are two options for colouring style (examples below) which have the same price.Complex designs and backgrounds will increase the price proportionate to the complexity.
• There may be additional costs for add-ons (weapons, props, alternate expressions, etc).
• For non-humanoid designs, I will discuss the pricing with you further!+90% price per additional character, maximum 4 characters per illustration.
• ie. 3 characters, bust = $80 + $72 + $72
• This will be decreased if appropriate for the composition (ex. a character is partially obscured by another).Chibis are fullbody and Style A colouring by default.

Colouring Style A / Default
• Standard lighting and shading.
• Simple background (flat colours, gradients, patterns, shapes) or transparency.

Colouring Style B / Atmospheric
• Atmospheric lighting and shading. May include effects (blur, chromatic aberration).
• Atmospheric background or simple scenery such as skies.
• Somewhat experimental - let me know if there's a specific piece I've done that you'd like the colouring to look similar to!

EMOTES

20 USD per emote.
32 USD for two characters in the same emote.Emotes can be of characters, objects, text / including text, etc.
Complex designs will not affect the price - they will be simplified to maintain legibility.448 x 448 pixel size.
They may be used freely for Twitch and Discord.I don't offer animated emotes, but it is OK to have someone else animate an emote I've drawn!

TERMS OF SERVICE

Payment upfront via Paypal invoice after final price has been agreed upon.Completion is expected within 2 months maximum after payment (typically 1-3 weeks but depends on queue and life obligations).
• You will be notified ASAP of any circumstances that could result in delays.
• I may work on personal art between working on commissions - this helps prevent burnout, thus ensuring the best quality work! Please understand that I am not neglecting your commission and will always aim to complete it within the above timeframe.
• If you wish for your commission to be completed by an early deadline, a rush fee may be applied depending on the timeframe in order to keep it fair for others in the queue.I typically send 2 progress WIPs for approval - the pose sketch and the lineart.
• After you have approved a WIP, I will not accept major revisions to that step without a fee (ex. changing the pose after you have already approved the pose sketch).
• Minor revisions and revisions that are of my own error (ex. missing a detail in the ref) are free of charge.I will not accept requests for refunds after the lineart has been approved. If a refund is requested prior to this, I will refund proportionate to the amount of work completed.
• If I am unable to complete the commission, I will refund in full.Commissions are for personal use only unless otherwise discussed.
• You may post the finished artwork on social media, use it for your icon / header / stream or server assets, print it for strictly personal use, etc.
• For commercial use (anything that generates profit, such as reselling as merch) the price will be 2x the original price.By default I do not publicly post commissions on social media. If I wish to, I will ask for your approval first.
I may use your commission as an example/portfolio piece. Please let me know if you would prefer me not to!Feel free to contact me anytime if you have questions!

tell me about yourself!

i'm a chinese canadian artist from metro vancouver! i've always loved art and games and i've been doing commissions since 2018.

can i repost, use, or edit your art?

reposts with credit are OK! i encourage it, especially if it's somewhere i don't post myself (reddit, facebook, etc).
DON'T repost without credit.using my art for icons/headers is perfectly fine (unless it's the same icon as me). credit is appreciated but i don't mind if you don't, just don't act like you drew it yourself.
please ask me if you wish to use my art for other purposes - i will generally allow it as long as it's strictly for personal use and credit is given.please do not edit or modify my art unless you've asked me first.if you want to use an artwork that is a commission i've drawn, please ask permission from the original commissioner.lastly, i'm honoured you'd want to use my art! always happy to see my stuff out there in the wild.

what do you use to draw?

clip studio paint (pro, version 1) and a 10+ year old wacom bamboo create.

tell me about your interests!

my fave games/series include zelda, xenoblade, kid icarus, metroid, hollow knight, okami, and mother 3.outside of games i love yugioh zexal, madoka magica, link click, arcane, and metal fight beyblade. i'm unlikely to post about them here but i'm always excited to meet people who like any of these!
