BGs, Sprites, and Illa Artist! [Closed]

#1 Post by DarkChibiShadow »

Hi everyone! I'm DCS!

I'm a sprite, background, and illustration artist for hire.
Please e-mail me if you're interested in any of my services.

E-mail: colinxzain@hotmail.com

I can work for half payment up front, half payment later, or will installments-- but I absolutely do not work for free.
That said, I am absolutely willing to work flexibly or for less if your project is to be commercialized later with cuts given to team members!

Other places to find me:
Deviantart -- Tumblr (18+ Only) -- Itch.io -- Weasyl
My regular commission prices if you're interested!

Textbox Portfolio: https://imgur.com/a/OFt2Gcc (Updated 06/30/2018)

I am absolutely OK to make R-18 work! B/B, G/G, G/B, or any inbetweens are all fine by me! Just talk to me about it privately!

Backgrounds: ($50--$80 USD, depending on complexity) ((However; A simple pattern can be $30--$40, for example, a starry sky.))

Other services:
I can also help with basic coding in Renpy, UI development, logo development, things like that!
Prices can be discussed for anything miscellaneous.

11/09/2018: As of right now, I am not longer available for "full-game" commissions (aka, commissions where I draw just about everything for a game).
I'm still willing to draw busts + CGs, as that helps the style stay consistent; but otherwise I would rather just draw busts and/or busts+CGs OR just the backgrounds for a game. Thanks for your understanding.

Hope to hear from some of you soon!

Oops, I love One Piece.
(Also, it's just easiest to use them as an example since two of my completed VN's right now are fan games!)

DCS is a great artist who's produced some fantastic work in both sprites and backgrounds for my game; they've shown consistent patience and a willingness to work with me as a commissioner in a way I truly appreciated, so I feel like my game is much better for having brought them on board. They're a truly fun person to work with, as well, and I can't recommend them enough!

(I recommend hiring them so much, in fact, that I actually signed up for a forum I usually lurk on to personally vouch for the fantastic job they've done and continue to do with the materials I ask for. Seriously, it's been a blast to work with them!)

Just popping in to say that it was absolutely wonderful working with DCS. Everything was super high quality and done in a more than timely manner.
I could not have asked for more from an artist, and I sure know I will be hiring DCS again in the future. :)

Darn my bad memory, I kept forgetting to do this but I want to say that DCS is an absolute delight to work with. They are friendly and understanding, often have very creative ideas and create amazing works <3 Very communicative and always deliver on time as well! I'm going to work with them again and always looking forward to see their lovely art >3
