@emcheeseman's trading card commissions

All commission spots are filled for now! Thank you! If you missed this round, stay tuned — once I work through the current batch I’ll reopen requests again.

Thank you for your interest in commissioning me! I'm bringing back an old favorite with an updated design: character commissions inspired by collectible trading cards. I draw the art and you provide the text. It's fun!

Quantity is limited so I can maintain a sustainable workload. I am currently ONLY taking personal commissions in this style, but hope to offer a broader range at different price points in the future.

examples





info
  • The price per card is $220 USD.
  • Original characters, D&D and tabletop characters, BG3 and video game PCs, FFXIV characters, and everything in between are all welcome! I am more comfortable drawing humans, elves, catgirls and similar fantasy creatures but will do my best with animal/alien features. Intricate designs/outfits/props/armor are all good but may be simplified a bit to suit my style.
  • Visual references are required (artwork, screencaps, a pinterest board, or assorted references of hair/armor/etc)
  • I accept payment via PayPal only (see Terms section below for more info)

each card includes
  • color illustration of a single character
  • info box with their name, title or basic info, stats, and a short description
  • accent color (your choice, or I'll choose one that coordinates with the artwork)
  • simple background (again, your choice or leave it up to me)

terms
Below are my terms for personal commissions, i.e. custom artwork for personal use only that may not be reproduced, resold, or used for commercial or promotional purposes.

  • Payment. I handle payments via Paypal invoices only. Payment must be made upfront, in full, before I begin your commission.
  • Process: After we have agreed on the commission’s specs and the invoice has been paid, I will send you a sketch for approval and revise as necessary before completing the full piece. When the piece is complete, you may request revisions and final tweaks. Once everything is wrapped up, I’ll send you the final high-res file.
  • Rights: You may use the completed illustration for personal use only, e.g. as an icon, phone wallpaper, printed for your own use, etc. The image may not be reproduced, resold, or used for commercial or promotional purposes. I retain the image’s copyright as well as the right to display the image in my portfolio and on social media. (If you prefer to have your commission remain private, I am happy to honor that.)
  • Timeframe: The speed at which I complete your commission depends on my workload, but I'm estimating 3 weeks from the time the invoice is paid. I'm willing to discuss a deadline if your commission needs to be completed within a certain time frame (e.g. in time for someone's birthday) and re-prioritize my commission list as necessary, within reason.
