Terms & Pricing

First and foremost in order to buy anything from Blue Gorgon outside of our Art Shop you must contact me directly but please read through this page before you do. I handle everything personally and on a case by case basis.

I accept Paypal via billing@bluegorgon.com (preferred) or money order. Prices can change without notice, but the prices listed are applicable the day you order. All orders are on a first come, first serve basis, so patience is appreciated.

The Art Shop is now open! Posters, cards, mugs, shirts, the whole shebang. Keep checking back, more to be updated all the time!

All Blue Gorgon artwork is copyrighted to me unless you are purchasing usage rights for a custom piece such as a logo, but I retain the right to be credited and to use the image in my portfolio and gallery.

I do give permission to use images from this site (with the exception of commissions) as links to Blue Gorgon as well as personal, noncommercial icons and avatars so long as credit is given.

For commission pieces I specialize in snakes, fantasy, mythology, monsters, and other animals and anthropomorphic creatures but subjects are not limited to these. I do commissions of personal characters from games like World of Warcraft, and obviously Azeroth and all it's creatures belong to Blizzard. The same applies to any other game or fandom and it's respective creators.

I also do commercial work such as logos and other commercial designs. These do cost more due to being used for a profit and giving full rights of the work over to the client. Please see the chart below for pricing.

I also reserve the right to turn down a commission because of subject matter or being too backed up, but as always please contact me and ask. Never hurts to check, I'll see what I can do for you. :)

How the process works is you give me a description of what you want as detailed as possible, and I will sketch a very rough concept thumbnail, possibly several. I e-mail the rough sketch(es) to you for approval/suggestions before I move up to a more detailed version. Once I've moved on from the sketch, the window for revisions has closed. Here is the basic outline for commission pricing. Two or more subjects refers to additional characters aside from the assumed one.

Keep in mind these are only estimates, and the actual price will depend on what you want and how complex it is.

Materials	Rates	2 or more subjects	Detailed Background
Pencil	$10 and up	+$5 per extra subject	+$15 and up
Ink	$20 and up	+$10 per extra	+$15 and up
CG Color	$30 and up	+$15 per extra	+$15 and up
Commercial Design	$300 includes art and art usage.	n/a logo is one subject, however further works for commercial use will average $13 an hour	n/a logos are better suited to background flexibility

I do require a nonrefundable deposit of 1/3rd the agreed price because I've had my share of abandoned commissions in the past. In the event of an abandoned commission, I reserve all rights to the image and may continue with the piece, however I wish, as well as sell prints. Paid in full commission pieces are not sold as prints without the permission of the client, however, I always reserve the right to include the piece in my portfolio gallery as an example of my work.

If you change your mind or decide not to continue with a commission after discussing ideas with me, please let me know! I won't be offended and I completely understand the need to go with an artist that best suits your needs and style. But please understand that I need closure, and to know that I shouldn't be waiting to hear back from you. Communication and honesty go a long way, don't be afraid to let me know what's going on. :)

I also eagerly request that you send pics of commissions that you've had tattooed. Tattooing is the highest form of flattery for an artist, imho, and I love to see them! I also realize that you still have to pay another artist to actually give you the ink, so if your commission is purely for the purpose of a personal tattoo, talk to me about a possible discount.

Currently all breeding projects are on hold. I don't know when we'll be able to get this show on the road, but it won't be for some time. Till then, take a look at our Links for active breeders!
