An update about my commissions

I've decided that my pricing list needed to be updated, and I've slightly increased the rates, for the very simple reason that I've been spending a lot of time on my most recent commissions and my income isn't proportionate to the amount of work. It's sad, but true. I really want to keep my rates low, but I've come to a point when I realized that I've been seriously underrating my own work, especially comparing my pricings to the average for digital art.

Fireflies

Fireflies.

Photoshop + Wacom + a couple of references for face & bust.

The face is referenced to a girl whose pic I found on Google, but unfortunately can't remember exactly where.

It started as a sketch, went far, and I think it isn't finished yet. As a simple portrait, it's good the way it is but... when I have time, I'll probably add a wider background, some sort of a scenery. Oh, I also guess she kinda resembles Daenerys from Game of Thrones, but that wasn't my intention.

All the characters don't belong to me, but to their respective creators.

Peter Bishop

Peter Bishop, Fringe. 

 I'm finally catching up on Fringe, I'm currently on season 4. I know season 5 is the last one, so it's time to celebrate, I guess. I will miss Fringe. This show has some of the most compelling characters I've ever seen, especially Walter and Peter.
