Hey.
So you made it to my commissions page.
Name's DankShamwow, or Sham for short.Prices depend on resolution (64x64, 128x128, 256x256, etc.)
Commissions will take a few days on average, and a few weeks at most. Sometimes, it might only take hours. It depends on the project.
Do not be afraid to ask for progress updates!A sketch of the design you wish to see will be requested, as well as general ideas for the colors. This sketch doesn't have to be high-quality, I just need to be able to understand what you want.
Prices:32x32 or less: Starts at $50
Minecraft Skin: Starts at $50
64x64: Starts at $70128x128: Starts at $150256x256 or greater: Starts at $300The first number is the number of pixels horizontally, and the second number is the number of pixels vertically. You are not limited to these sizes, but prices will be based on the total area of the piece.Pricing is based on a $25/hr rate. The given numbers are the lower boundary of what anything of that size will cost-- for example, even if I don't take two hours to make a 32x32 sprite, it will still be priced at $50 because of the time spent discussing the project, waiting on feedback, etc.This hourly rate is tracked via this Aseprite plugin by Kacper Woźniak and is fairly accurate, as I tend not to leave a project file open if I'm not actively working on it.The minimum payment will be collected up front after references are provided & before work begins. After the time spent on the project exceeds what the minimum payment will cover, the hourly rate starts to come into effect.
Fullbodies or Characters:
Highly detailed, complex designs. May have a few props, but this could increase the cost of the art. This encompasses anything below the shoulders in a design, and may not work well in lower resolutions.
I can also make a Minecraft skin of your character if you provide a design with side and back views.
Icons:
A simple headshot or bust of a character, or could be something completely different. Low-detail, and perfect for an icon for social media or a character token.
Weapons & Other Items:
These can have a lot of different resolutions depending on the weapon type.
Examples of My Emotes:
I have made emotes previously for Twitch Affiliates/Partners, as well as for use on Discord. These projects are either done in batches or in single orders.
Other Stuff:
I am willing to make game assets as well.
See some of my other work below:
What I Won't Do:
-NSFW
-Lewds
-Gore
-NFTs. Don't even ask.
-Anything I don't feel that I can do properly.What I Will Do:

-Flowing clothes/fabric
-Furry
-Gradients (These don't work super well, but I have techniques for simulating them)
This doesn't mean that I won't do these, but it will result in something that may not be up to the usual standard of quality. Please keep this in mind before commissioning.How Do We Get Started?
Just send me a DM on Twitter or on Discord (my handle is @DankShamwow on both!) and we can discuss things in DMs.
