Default Xander's Wallpaper and Sigs Commission Thread

Heya folks

Given I get bored at home and I need something to constantly keep me busy, I thought I'd start doing commissions. I can't draw at a professional level, but I have access to good programs to make quality wallpapers, sigs and avatars.

Avatars: Unknown price for now.
Forum sigs: 5k for now.
Wallpapers: 20k.

Status: Open for commissions.

1.

5.

What happens when you order a commission:
- You send me the stuff (in this thread, in PM, via instant messenger or email - PM me here for details);
- I work on the project, may post previews;
- When I'm done, I'll PM you with a watermark, smaller-res'ed version (especially wallpapers);
- You pay me on GW;
- I send the full version without the watermark and everyone's happy . I may request email addresses since my PhotoBucket account likes to resize anything higher than 1024x768 on full quality.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

If you decide to hire me for commissions, I will need the following things:

- Screenshot of your character(s) if it's a GW-related wallpaper. Please, make it stand out... and lighting matters a lot when taking screens.
- Resolution.

Optional:
- General style if you have a rough idea; dark, swirly, with flowers, stars, tech... etc.
- Colors if you want specific colors.
- A background if you want a certain background for your commission.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Examples:

Non-GW Wallpapers
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...-080521-15.jpg => Done for a friend.
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...op17-07-08.jpg => My own laptop's design.
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/C4DWall3.jpg => Random C4D-only wallpaper.
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/31-07-08.jpg => My current desktop theme, in C4D and CS3.
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...oodPreview.jpg => Calista Blackblood commission.

GW Wallpaper previews (for now):
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...renPreview.jpg => Namiren commission
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...oyPreview4.jpg => Scorpion Boy commission

Sig previews (for now):
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...SigPreview.jpg => White Lies commission
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...SigPreview.jpg => Marty Silverblade commission
http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...XanderSig1.jpg => My own sig, not a preview.

Working on avatars.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Misc. Information:

On average, a wallpaper takes me around 1-3 hours; even though sigs are smaller, it's going to take me roughly the same time. With my IRL situation and time zones, don't expect me to do something as soon as you order a commission, I'm not on my computer 24/7, and I've got ADHD so I'm uber-easily distracted. (See, I said I'd work on my avatar but I'm not, I'm rewriting this post x]).

While I'm waiting on details for commissions, I'll simply work on the ones I have details already... just so I'm constantly busy and to avoid getting clogged within all my stuff. No one will be forgotten! As soon as I have details/pictures, I'm simply going to switch projects.

I'm available to deliver final versions through email, AIM, Yahoo!, MSN Messenger and XFire. PM me on Guru for details, or in-game if you happen to see me.

Aww, now I feel kind of bad for what I paid you when back when I got my first wallpaper.

If you like doing the wallpapers, could I have another one? :3 I'll pay you a little extra considering the first one's still as awesome. Is another black dye ok?

Talking :p

Could i have a sig done?
Ill post the pics wen i get home

Edit: Ok here are the chars id like to have included :P

http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...on/gw004-1.jpg
http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...on/gw008-1.jpg

id like the sin with a bow in the at the very left bottom corner with the other sin next to him.
Could the background be white, that turns into black along the length of the sig? Like have a white background behind the chars then fade into black for the writing at other end?

For writing in the top right hand corner could you put The Black Rose Rebellion, in white on the black background and in the bottom right corner, still in white on the background: White Lies.

as for size, my forums dont have a restriction, just try and get it to fit all to fit without it being to big :P

Hope a slot opens up, and also hope that this is enuf info :S

Don't feel bad about last wallpaper, haha =]. Was a different thing :P. It's still sitting in storage because I generally try to keep one to test colors when I get new equipment, so don't worry 'bout it.

I've started with Apohysis right now but really, as I said, I don't mind switching. I'm just using it 'cause it was what I did last time and I had no other details.

Gonna go back at it now

It's pretty! Very nice work Kusandaa, bit of a pitty about the sizing issues XD Got worked out quickly though.

I should get back to those models, pencil leads don't get worn down by themselves. *googles Calvin Klein*

Alright, I've decided to open my commissions for avatars as well. I'm about to work some on my own, see what I can do, then either later today or tomorrow it should be up. I'm going to rewrite the opening post a bit and MAYBE, MAYBE mod my prices a bit; something to include avatars as well - I still haven't figured a price out.

Until then, here's what I've done so far. They are previews because the people have gotten their full versions which I often sent in emails to prevent resizing by PB. If I send things through links, I URGE you to save them on your hard drive as I'll eventually clean up some stuff. At most they're saved on my hard drive, but yeah... better be safe then sorry :P.
