Dudebulge's Commission Info (2019)
🕑 Added 2019-09-15 04:07:19 +0000 UTCCommission Process:
1. Contact me through the email listed above- dudesdrawings@gmail.com regarding the commission work you would like me to do. This is just an introductory email, I don't need reference materials or anything at this point. I will let you know when I am able, if I will accept your project. Remember, if I can't at this time, that doesn't mean I can't in the future. This would be the email where you just outline what you would like from me, be it a full body character, portrait, etc. and who the character is.
2. Once I let you know if I am going to take and start on your commission, I will require reference materials emailed to me. These could be character sheets, movie stills, images of background if applicable, details of special tattoos, etc. You don't need to go crazy with them (unless you want to!). A clear face image and body pic are usually enough in most cases. The only time I wouldn't require reference from you is if we're designing a new character from the ground up and only have text to go from. Also, any pertinent details you would like included for example: certain body parts as the focus of the image, expression of character(s), etc. If you prefer my chibi style, more cartoony or realistic proportions, you can call that out too.
3. I will create a rough draft within a few days of receiving your references email and send it to you for approval. This is the time to determine ANY changes you would like made that show up in the rough sketch phase. For example, you don't like the composition, and want to try something completely different. I will do up to 2 rough drafts. If there are smaller changes that need to be changed at this time, do call those out too. I do not like this phase to take a long time as it can end up wasting hours and hours. To avoid that, be clear with me in step 2 regarding what you want. I don't like to guess, I like to know what my client wants from the get-go. Of course, you can ask for my input too, I want you to be happy with your finished piece after all! Once the rough is approved by you, I will verify pricing with you and send you an invoice. Once I have received payment in full I will move to the final stages. From the point of received payment, I will take up to 60 days to complete your order.
4. You can check in on my progress sporadically, but please don't overdo it. (If you ask me twice in one week how the commission is coming along, yup, that's too often, lol.) I will update you automatically at phase ends: end of inking stage, end of flat color phase, and one more time after adding values. (Assuming you've paid for colors and/or values obviously) After that you can expect your finished piece! :D When you get your update emails with attached works in progress, it is completely fine if small adjustments need to be made along the way, please make sure to call them out so I can fix them for you! Example: Hey D.B., my guy's eyes are supposed to be red and these look pretty yellow!
Additional Information:
Patreon is my biggest focus in my professional art career and requires the vast majority of my time. This is why I require up to 2 months for each commission I take on. I also hate to feel rushed on works, especially premium projects like these. I will get your piece done in the promised amount of time, possibly earlier, but please just be patient and accept that it will likely be closer to 60 days.
You mention 'simple backgrounds' but what does that mean? I mean something that's not overly detailed or time consuming. Examples of simple backgrounds include: an open grassy field, a blue sky with fluffy white clouds, a blanket on top of a bed. Complex backgrounds are ones that will take me a large amount of effort to complete like, cityscapes, dense forests, a stained-glass window, etc. Complex backgrounds cost a bit more, as you might expect. Free backgrounds are ones that are just a simple flat color or color gradient.
Similar to complex backgrounds are especially detailed characters. Mechanized limbs or robotic bodies, detailed, individually feathered wings, things of this nature take much longer to draw, ink, and color and have an extra expense due to this.
And Finally:
Don't let this wall of information daunt you! If you have some money burning a hole in your pocket and would like original artwork done by yours truly, please get in touch! I don't bite, and can promise to be professional (and friendly!) throughout the experience. And if you have any questions for me regarding the process, or subject matter, or anything else you think *could pertain to your commission, just ask! Thanks for reading, and for choosing me to make you a custom illustration!
-D.B.

Ah, I love this! 💕 I will check all your drawings too 😍

Here's a link to a small bio of all of my crew members. My Pokemon gallery on FA has the most Cosmic Cruiser Ho-Oh stuff in one place. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/25790289/
Tiger
Oh yeah, now I see that he is Grady the Gogoat from your space opera! Where can I check your space opera?
Tiger
Grady? Nice, I didn’t know he had a name! I also didn’t know he had a prosthetic arm. Did you have more drawings of him other than the sauna one? Yeah, I’d like to ask you my good duelist paladin!
Dude Bulge
Yup, that's Grady. ;) I have 2 commissions on my plate currently, but I'd be happy to draw your fella in the not-too-distant future. Just pop it in an email.
Tiger
I meant the guy in a sauna with his towel on his shoulder. He is showing his beautiful butthole which I loved a lot! He is hot and cheerful! (You posted it on your twitter.) He is not a pockemon in my campaign. He is an oath of the ancients paladin swashbuckler!
Dude Bulge
Ha! Old Grady? How interesting. Prosthetic arm and everything? Is he still a Pokemon in your campaign?
Tiger
Love this. I am using your gogoat as my dnd character and I’d love to have more of him! 🥰
Roque
YES
Dude Bulge
Yep, that's totally fine! I'll be curious to know what I'm comfortable drawing outside of my normal comfort zone too!

If we have questions about how comfortable you'd be doing certain kinks would you be open to chat via DMs as well? Or via Gmail? Didn't have the cash for commissions right now but was thinking of asking so i had an idea what to get in the future
