May commissions are now closed!  I filled up in under 12 hours, thanks everyone!  If you didn't get a slot this time around, no worries!  I will be opening more slots in late July, with work to begin in August.  If you already have an invoice from me, feel free to keep it on hand for the next round as it will still be valid.

If you are interested in getting a custom sculpture, I recommend putting in a quote request in advance.  This way, you know the exact amount you need to pay on the day I open for commission slots and you will better your chances at getting a spot.  To read my full policy and pricing information, head on over to my website.  PLEASE do not submit commission requests through deviantArt.  I have a form on my website that sends requests to my e-mail and helps me keep organized.

Limited slots will be available in July 2013.

Materials and Tools

My larger sculptures are made using Aves Apoxie Sculpt and/or Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam.  My maquettes are constructed using Super Sculpey, a polymer clay.  I also work with Monster Clay and create molds/casts from these sculpts.

My armatures consist of household aluminum foil, as well as aluminum armature wire.  I paint with Delta Ceramcoat craft acrylic paints, using both an airbrush (for larger pieces) and hand brushes.

Concerning Sales

If a piece is for sale in my gallery, it will state so in the description.  If it does not mention being for sale, it was either a custom piece created for someone else or it has already been sold (or I am just not selling it!)  Please do not ask me to remake any pieces in my gallery; not only is this boring for me to do, it defeats much of the purpose of owning an original.  I do not mind sculpting the same character again, but it needs to be in a fresh light.

A Note About Questions

I get a LOT of questions concerning my techniques and materials.  Before you ask me a question, PLEASE check my tutorials in my gallery to see that it isn't answered there first.  I put a lot of time and effort into those and they explain a majority of what I do.  If you have material specific questions, try googling it before asking me about it.  There is a lot of good information about sculpting materials out there that is probably a lot more detailed than what I could tell you.

Also, please keep in mind that when I am responding to one of your questions, I am taking time out of my busy day to explain a technique or idea that quite possibly took me years to develop or figure out.  About 10% of the people that ask me questions acknowledge that I even answered them.  I am almost completely self taught and I learned through a LOT of experimentation.  And I still do.  While I don't mind answering questions, I do ask that you please take the time to read my tutorials and the descriptions of my pieces before asking.  I think that is a fair exchange of me taking the time to reply to your question.

Group Requests

While I appreciate the motion,  I do not accept requests to unthemed groups.  Quality control is of no importance to me, but I do not see the point of being part of a group that has no specific theme.  Please don't take it personally if I decline your group invitation.  I welcome themed group invitations, regardless of quality control.
