Basic Action Super Heroes!

Hey, all! Just popping back onto the BASH boards as I'm actually getting back into gaming again. And with my return comes...new art! Doing some new & different stuff here, more cartoony, but hopefully y'all will enjoy...!

I've had a few inquiries about commissions lately... The cartoon style here run $25 for a single-character illo. The more illustrated (and weird) style runs a few bucks more, since it takes longer (see my other thread for samples).

First up...my namesake! The strange & otherworldly Comet Man!

Bring on the Bad Guy! In this case, the Cartel hitman known as...Razor!

LOL
I really dig your style!

Do you do work (commissions or solid gigs with supers game companies) for anyone currently?
If so (or if not), how would you do requests? Time/Pay, etc...

Can't say I have anything for you now (if that's an option) as I'm not in a position to buy, but I'm always excited about neat artists I dig. To keep in mind for the future (hopefully near!). hehe

Nice. Keep the samples coming!

I don't actually do any RPG work at the moment, but I have been getting some inquiries lately from small-press publishers, so I'm throwing some more of my doodles up on the internet so more people can check them out.

Requests/commissions/etc. are pretty easy...people tell me what they're looking for and I try to draw it! OK, maybe it's a little harder than that... I try to make sure a client is happy with the design, etc. first, and send them a scanned pencil drawing before I ink. Then the coloring is done with GIMP on the Mac. Payment is usually up front, and I send the completed illo via email at whatever size is requested. I try to keep my rates fair, for the amount of time that goes into the work, but I'm a terrible businessman, and generally give discounts to small press people, indy publishers and the like.

Also, since I work the "old-fashioned" way (pen & ink), I do have the B&W drawing available if the client wants to pay the postage to get it. They're sometimes pristine, and other times have white-out splattered on them...

I'll do that, and thanks!

Very cool.
I would totally be interested in hearing your pricing. As noted, I'm not open to spending a load on art right now for potential product ideas I have - BUT if the price was right I'd love to ask for a tester character image from you to see how it comes out and how you work with the creator. (that's so interesting to me)

I'm also very interested in seeing more of your work if you have it up anywhere.

Thanks again!!

And for those of you missing my normal illo style...fear not! It hasn't gone anywhere, I just like experimenting with new things a bit (which explains why I have far, far too many RPGs).

Hey! Nice looking work! I dig both your styles! Keep up the good work!!

Btw, $25 is very reasonible for commissions!

Thanks! Glad you're digging the 'toons!

Here's on of my wife's characters, using a new coloring technique I'm mucking about with.
