Hey there, and welcome to my art shop! I'm a digital artist from NYC, and have a passion for graphic design! All my work is hand drawn and of great quality, and I do my best to satisfy all your artistic needs!

Prices/Time frames:
Server Logos (includes icon):
$30 1 week.

Avatars:
$10+
1 week.

Store Icons:
$15+
<1 week.

Misc:
Price and time frame depend on the project.

What I offer:
Hand drawn, high quality artwork including server logos, avatars, and icons, though I can do some other tasks if needed. My work is some of the cheapest on Spigot and MCM, yet still very high quality. I always put the customer first and I will always do my best to make sure you're satisfied with your piece.

What I don't offer:
Non hand-drawn artwork/graphic design (thread designs, vector art, etc). I don't do renders or things like that, so if you want any of those things I'm afraid I'm not for you.

Vouches:
(On my Spigot thread HERE.)

Contact:
- PM.
- Discord: Undead_Guppy#8391 <- MESSAGE ME ON HERE FIRST.

Ordering process:
Primary Order -
When you either P.M me or D.M me on Discord, I will get back to you within 48 hours. If I for some reason don't, I guarantee I'll have a good reason for it. After we find a good time to converse, I'll ask you for some basic server information (name, color scheme, theme, gamemode, etc.) After I get that, I'll encourage you to provide a few ideas on what you would like the logo to feature. Specificity is better, and it allows me to make something much closer to what you'd like. If you are feeling a little bit stuck on the creative process, I can offer some ideas, and we can discuss which one you like the best. This is will be the one used to make the sketch. I will give you an estimate price based on this idea.

Sketch -
I will get started on a "decent" quality sketch based on the idea we agree on. This sketch will be rough enough that I'm not wasting my time on it, but so it gives a good enough representation of the final product. Don't be surprised if the sketch isn't the highest quality, trust me it will be modified heavily later on. After I complete the first sketch, I'll show it you for feedback, and we can discuss any larger scale changes you'd like me to make to the design, and I'll do my best to change them to suit your needs. At this point I'll refine the price I estimated earlier based on any changes.

Line Art -
After I get the sketch approved, the actual final product starts. At this point, unless you have a high reputation (I'll decide on this) you'll have to pay 50% of the payment we decided on before I actually start. After this payment goes through, I'll get started. I will do my best to update you on the progress, and can make minor changes along the way. Keep in mind that minor means minor; if you want a drastic change after I've started it may raise the price. Assuming all goes smoothly, you should be shown the final line art of the logo (basically just the logo lines without the colors). Now we just confirm a little bit more about the colors so that everything is clarified for the next stage.

Coloring -
After I have approval for the line art, and confirmation of the colors you'd like, I'll start on the colors. Usually I'll start with base colors, show you the piece, then move on the shading, show you the piece, highlight, show, etc. There's not a lot to this stage, though my coloring methods can change a little depending on what kind of style you'd prefer.

Final Payment -
After the color has been finished, and everything has been approved, I'll send you a lightly watermarked version of the piece. To receive the final piece without the watermark you must complete the other 50% of the payment. After that payment is received I'll send over the finished work, and the deal is complete.

Terms of Service:
You MAY NOT chargeback any money you've payed me. If you want to request a refund, we may be able to work something out, but you are not permitted to just chargeback without valid notice or reason. If you do so, I'll dispute the chargeback, and file a report against you. If you request any major changes after the line art/colors have started, I can refuse them if it would increase the price outside of your budget. As I said earlier if you want any serious changes made you'll need to request them during the sketch if you want assurance that they'll be implemented. You may not resell my work without my permission, so if for some reason you would like to you must message me first. You may also not claim my work as your own (yes, people have done this). Keep in mind that there are some rules of common sense and certain things that are not permitted that are not included in these terms of service, but note that I can refuse any project, and overall have power over the transaction. I will do everything I can to keep you safe in this process, but I also must be careful myself. These conditions can change at any time, and by commissioning a piece from me you agree to all aspects of them.
FUN STUFF (READ ME):

- If you are a reputable plugin developer (up to me to decide) and would like an icon for their premium plugin, shoot me a PM, and I'm usually open to trades.

Nevermind. It's against the rules to link to competitor sites, but apparently, MCM doesn't count Spigot as a competitor "at this time".
Alright, well I read the rules, I suggest that you reread them too.

1.23 Do not discuss, link, or promote sites which could be considered to compete with MC-Market.
Alright, well if Spigot isn’t considered a competitor site, and I’m only using it for my vouches, etc... I’ll wait until a staff member had a problem with it.

Can a staff member clean up this thread as this user is basically post farming at this point?

You seem kind of spiteful, also that's a lot of text to read. You have to keep in mind your target demographic and the natural demographic of MCM.
I’m not meaning to come across as such, I’ve simply had some poor experiences with users in this community and am trying to get to the point. And given the circumsgances, I believe my responses to that user were warrented.


And thanks for the feedback on the text, I’ll consider changing it. Truthfully it’s more important to work with people who can at the very least read rather than making a quick buck off those who cannot, and for now I’m willing to accept that it may limit me.

You came off hostile while the user was just trying to be insightful and misunderstood a gray area.


It's not the fact that people in this community are illiterate but rather your price geared towards 16 and under, and our attention span couldn't care less about that big blob of text. If you want clients who are serious enough that they will read I suggest upping your prices by a lot.

Thanks for the feedback, and I'll definitely consider that. But a selling point for me is the low prices I offer, so I consider it a minor trade off for a client to do some reading. Although, most of my information can be summed up in my business card, so it's not a huge deal if a user reads the entire thread. Once again, I'll definitely consider modifying the design.

Your business card is a little small to see the work, but in a book I was reading, he actually lost clients because he was pricing too low for the business he was trying to work with so they went to a different designer.
