Sent a reply a little while ago, you're pretty close to the front of the queue ^_^

In short: no. It would be unfair on the peoeple who have been waiting weeks (months soon) if I let people start paying their way to the top.

Put me down for the full deal, character painting and background. Don't care how long the wait is.

Put me on the waiting list.

Let me know when it is my turn... Everything on it etc. I want to print it in > A1 format. So it will need to be in high res. Let me know if this is possible.

It's hard to say, what with cancelations, and the fact that my work rate isn't set in stone. But a conservative estimate would be 1 person per week (in fact, I am usually working on 2-3 images, and they usually get finished every 2 weeks or so...)

The list now stands at 32 (with you being the thirty second Pumusq), so that's 32 weeks, approx 8 months...

Sounds kind of crazy when you say it like that O_o

Those of us who have to wait so long do get a bonus from the time though.
All this drawing over the course of 7 or 8 months is sure to improve his skills even more, so our characters will look even better!

I've been putting it off, but I think the time has come, as of now, I'm freezing the queue. If anything changes (like people drop out, or I somehow increase my working speed) I'll reconsider. I want to say a massive thanks to all those who've shown an interest, demand far exceeded my expectations and feedback from the people I've done work for has been great.

I'll still be updating the thread with previews of all the commissions I finish, so that people who like my work can still enjoy it .

[Edited first post to reflect the current change]

nope, and nope.

My dervish and paragon are now fully equiped. And most of the new armours aren't that much better than the old ones (may be getting vabbian warrior and ancient ranger though... we'll see )

Most of the money at the moment is going towards buying all the new nightfall skills for each of the 10 professions. Curse my UAX addiction.

Just for a change, removed all commission previews! :O

Not to worry though, they are now to be found in my lovely new "Art" thread, here:

FROM ART THREAD:

Fox, would you be open to doing 3 different commissions for me (not all at once obviously, maybe spaced out over a few months but 3 none the less)? I'd like one picture per chapter of GW that gets released (featuring a new profession) and you're the person I'd like to do it. I'll pay full price (or extra) for each.

Only if you want to of course.

EDIT: This could be pushing my luck, but I have a template I have done up of an A2 page complete with character box (for the painting), chapter logo and character info (name, age etc) which I would like to get printed with the picture to frame and hang. Before I spend any more time perfecting it, do you do 300DPI resolution images and custom dimension (length/width) images?

FEEL FREE TO IGNORE THE BELOW INFO UNTIL YOU ARE UP TO ME

Just because I wanted you to have something more concrete to churn around in the back of your mind (and I don't want to forget between now and when my commission is done as I am known to do):

New Info:

Actual pixel dimensions I would like (at 300DPI):

Width: 4566
Height: 6056

Here's something I thought of:

Perhaps you could do the painting in a higher resolution (say, 1200DPI) and I could import it on my computer as 300DPI and it'll be the right size.

As far as I'm aware, A2 comes out at 23x16 inches, your pixel measurements are little under that.

A 300DPI A2 image should be around 4800x6900, I believe. Doing an image at 1200DPI would be somewhat impractical (19200x27600 pixels!) and ultimatly pointless if you were going to scale it down. Basically, I'd either need to work at a lower resolution (like around 100DPI) and scale it up, or just paint at a much higher resolution than usual. Both of them have their drawbacks; scaling up may result in a lower quality image, and painting in a higher resolution, just means it would take me longer to produce a work than it usually would. Also, I realised that you'd already posted in the thread before it got locked, and thus, you're already on the waiting list ^_^ (4 from the end)
