Thinking of Starting a Comic...
And so here we are.
What do you guys think I should do?
Doing Commissions :D
Hello everyone!
For those who do not know, I go by the name TehFinalBoss on the internet, otherwise known as Romanesis or Roman for short. I have decided to start opening up commissions for digital artwork from busts to full body pictures, examples of which I will provide below.
Since this is my first time ever doing online-based commissions, I will start small with three spaces for people to email me their ideas for pieces. I operate on a first come first serve basis and will immediately post when spots have been filled, as well as tell those who have emailed me after that time so everybody knows. Prices past the labeled ones are all negotiable when it comes to including multiple characters and specific details. For Simple Sketches however, I require full price upfront.
Simple Sketch:
A simple gray pencil-like sketch of an idea for which the customer can base their work on or whatever else they desire to do with it.
Price: $1 for bust, $3 for full-body, price increases on the number of characters or detail desired.
Pure Outline:
A clean black outline of desired idea with no sketch lines to be found. Line-art essentially.
Price: $3 for bust, $6 for a full body, price increases depending on number of characters and detail desired,
Outline w/ Color:
Colored piece with solid colors only, no shading whatsoever.
Price: $6 for bust, $10 for full body, price increases depending on number of characters and detail desired.
Color w/ Cel Shading:
Colored piece with cel-shading only.
Price: $8 for bust, $13 for full body, price increases depending on number of characters and detail desired.
Color w/ Full Shading:
Colored piece with full, blended shading.
Price $12 for bust, $20 for full body, price increases depending on number of characters and detail desired.
What I Am Willing to Draw:
I am willing to draw anime characters and art of things from shows listed below.
RWBY (I will accept these more than any other sort of fandom)
Red vs. Blue
Minecraft
Adventure Time
DC and Marvel Comics
Katawa Shoujo
Creepypastas such as Slenderman, Jeff the Killer, Ben Drowned, Smile Dog, Laughing Jack, the Rake, Zalgo etc. as well as anything Lovecraftian in horror etc.
Mighty No. 9, Shovel Knight, Yooka-Laylee, Banjo Kazooie, Glover, Super Mario Brothers, Super Smash Brothers, Kirby, Sonic the Hedgehog, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Metal Gear Solid, Megaman, Megaman X, The Last of Us, Bloodborne, Dark Souls, Demon's Souls, The Bioshock Series, Kingdom Hearts and other video games.
Fairy Tail, Naruto, Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Dragon Ball Z, Soul Eater, The Devil is a Part Timer, Soul Eater, Death Note, Akame Ga Kill, Evangelion and many other anime.
I am also 100% open to the drawing of OC's from these fandoms, as well as gender-bends and shipping of all sorts. If you have a specific fandom in mind that is not listed above, please let me know during the email and I will see if I may try to attempt it. If you ask me to draw something like, the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz, I'd do it. At the same time, the shows and games above are things that I am MOST familiar with and would be more likely to accept as an order.
I 100% refuse to draw anything charged by politics or social justice so this includes things like feminism, GamerGate, atheism, gay marriage, gun control etc. I don't need that kind of flak coming down on my head from any side and chose to remain 100% neutral. Any piece that I feel hints at racism, sexism or any other prejudice will be turned down in an instant. Also, due to this being my first time with commissioning, I will not be excepting any ones that depict graphic sexual content of any sort.
Negotiation:
The set prices are the set prices and I will not change or go below those set prerequisites when negotiating on how a piece should look or what it should include. That being said, I would like to get your vision to be as close as possible and I will ask specifics about the piece and character such as attire, weaponry, positions, setting and background, number of characters, etc. If you could provide all of this information right at the beginning, I can get to work on a sketch almost immediately for you.
Payment Method:
My commission email will be tehfinalboss64@gmail.com and you can contact me there with your orders. I will also use this email to converse on specifics with your pieces. The payment method I use will be through Paypal on a different email that I will give to the customer once a deal has been struck and a sketch has been approved.
I operate on a half-now half-later pay basis in that once I email and show the rough sketch of their commission and they confirm that it is what they want, I will ask for half of the payment sent to my Paypal right there. Once the piece is 100% I will ask for the rest of the payment and immediately email the finished piece once it is confirmed to be in my account.
I reserve the right to repost and show off all commissions as they are my work, and if posted on any website, should it be by the customer or anyone else, I must be credited in some manner, preferably a link to my tumblr, deviantART or what have you.

Thinking About Doing Commissions.
SPEAKING OF MONEY!
I am currently deciding whether or not I should get into doing commissions. I believe my skill is high enough to warrant getting into that line of work, but I have absolutely no idea on pricing and paypal usage so I am still working it out. I will be open to drawing as many different mediums and characters and series as possible in order to better my skills and abilities and such. This is what I have so far.
The two spectrums are usually depending on the size of the piece and the content included with in it. Small pic to really large pic.
Sketches: $5 to $10
+Outline: $10 to $20
+Color: $15 to $20
+Cel Shading: $8 to $12
+Regular Shading: $10 to $15
+Background: $5 to $10
if anyone does commissions and has experience in this, let me know how I can get started. Even if you haven't I'd still like to hear your opinion. Thank you in advance
Heading to Otakon 2014 :B
These next four days will have little activity as I will be heading to Maryland for Otakon 2014!
Friday I will be cosplaying as G-Man from Half-Life but updated with actually good hair and blue contacts instead of white.
Saturday I will be cosplaying as Mecha Sonic from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. This is the main one and I hope it goes well and stays intact, but I will be bringing junk to make repairs just incase.
Sunday I will just be bumming around as the Tenth Doctor
I'll have the wrong sonic screwdriver unfortunately but who cares? xD
