Commissions are now open! I am hoping this will motivate me to paint more. Right now I am offering digital paintings only. I might offer traditional work in the future, though.

Here is how it works:

• You contact me via dA or email and let me know the details of your commission and any references* you want me to use.


• I will tell you the price and send you a rough sketch of the image.


• You send me one half of the payment to ensure that you are serious about ordering and not ripping me off.


• I will continue your commission once I have received the payment and will send you (size-reduced, watermarked) updates as I work.


• You may request changes at any time, however I will make major changes only in the beginning stages, and minor changes in the later stages. If the changes significantly increase my working time, the price of the commission will go up!


• When I am done with the painting, I will show you a size-reduced, watermarked version of the final image.


• You send me the second half of the payment.


• Once I have received the payment, I will send you the image as a high-resolution, non-watermarked JPG file suitable for printing (or other file format of choice). Optionally, I can also send you a printout by mail, but this will add printing and shipping costs.

The artwork is for your personal use only! You may not redistribute, sell, upload or reproduce it in any way without my written permission! I retain the copyright for the artwork, so you must purchase a license if you would like to use it commercially. I reserve the right to post the finished product in my art galleries.

I also reserve the right to deny a commission for any reason.

*I am capable of finding suitable copyright-free reference pictures for most subjects. However, if you provide the reference you'd like me to use, it will greatly speed up the process. If the final painting is supposed to look very much like the reference you give me, you must own the copyright to the picture or have permission to use it (unless it's public domain/CC licensed). I may ask for proof. I will not draw copyrighted characters (Disney, Anime, etc.) unless it is your own character and you are the copyright holder.


Price guide

The price depends upon the size and complexity of the commission. Below are some examples of complexities, however these are just very rough guidelines!

An image with one figure and a simple background that would print to A4 size (approx. 8x12 inches or 2480x3508 pixels) at 300 dpi would start at €40. If you want a smaller image, it would be cheaper, a bigger one more expensive (obviously). I can paint almost any size, I just take A4 as a starting point because it's a commonly used size.

simple background, single character: €40-80 at A4 size

What I paint

I specialize in realistic paintings with attention to detail. On request I can also use a more "painterly" style (less detail), but I will not draw caricatures, comics or manga. I particularly focus on painting:

• Animals, pets, wildlife, anthros


• Humans and humanoids


• Fantasy creatures

If there is anything you want that is not in the list, just ask! Currently, I will not paint Robots, mechs, cars, etc.


Payment options

I accept Paypal payments. Payments in Euros (€ ) are preferred (Paypal will convert it automatically for you), but you can also send US Dollar, IF we have previously agreed on a USD price.

If you live in the EU, you can also make a bank transfer (€ ). All banks in the EU will transfer money within the EU for the same fee as it's within the same country, so it should not cost you if you don't pay for that. If you are unsure, please ask your bank how they handle it.
