Ok guys,

Some exciting news... I got a job at a video game company as their concept artist.
This isn't freelance... I am working in house and getting paid to make video games.
I am so stoked!!!

There are a few things, however, that I will call "adjustments".
The job is more than 2 hours away so I have to commute... which means I am staying in an apartment for 3 nights and 4 days away from my wife and kids. It hurts and is taking some time to get used to but the job is good and it will help my wife and I not struggle so much to keep our family afloat. Money isn't everything, but you can't live on nothing either.

For all the people I owe commissions to... PLEASE... Please let me get adjusted in the new apartment so that when I get off of work Mon, Tues, and Wed night I can work on commissions.
I will not be working on any artwork Thurs night, Fri, Sat, and Sundays because that is my family time. There is no furniture or computer in the new apartment yet and I need to make it a condusive working environment to get the best artwork from me to you.

I thank you all for your well-wishes and understanding the situation. Just be assured, you WILL get your artwork!!! Thanks!

Pete

Hey all,

-Feeling good... I lost 14 pounds in a week and a half!!! It's amazing how much more energy you feel when you aren't carting around those extra pounds.

-Conventions I will be drawing at are listed below.

-Tekkoshocon's artists alley staff were very acceptional people. They made sure the artists were comfortable and happy.

-The next con will be SteelCity Comic and Toy con [link] in Pittsburgh.

-COMMISSIONS ARE STILL OPEN!!!

---------------------------COMMISSIONS--------------------------

Commissions are OPEN!!!
-How it works-
All commissions can be done either Digitally or Traditionally.

Digital: On an 11"x17" (or your preference) file with 300-500 dpi (pixels per inch) for maximum resolution and quality.

Traditional: On an 11"x17" lineless comicbook paper. Artwork is shipped after confirmation of street address via email. Shipping is figured into commission price.

PRICES (these prices are for a one (1) character commission. More than one character will be negotiated.

quick sketch = $20 example: [link]

clean pencil = $30 example: [link]

inks = $50 example: Digital: [link] Traditional: [link]

digital colors = $80 example: [link]

Background = $10 - $50 depending on detail
example: ($10-$20) [link]
example: ($30-$40) [link]

Prices for comic pages/sequentials must be negotiated differently than these commission types above.
Also the same applies for Original Character Rotation Sheets.
The base price for an Original Character Rotation Sheet line art is $60 where you get front, side, and back cleaned line art of your character.

Remember, the more you buy... the less you pay.
I give generous discounts to those who buy in bulk. It's like a thank you from me.

I am ready whenever you guys are!


-------------------------PAYMENT-------------------------

I accept PAYPAL, check, credit card or money order. Once payment is received, I will begin on the requested commission.

I do ship traditional images if asked to.

My preffered delivery method is to send high resolution images via email.

Hey Matt, (winner of Kiriban)

I will do your quick sketch prize at Nekocon this weeekend while you chill at my table for a little bit. I have some things to wrap up this week. So see you then.

To all of you others... there was a mistake and I was at Manga NEXT this passed weekend. They surprize-called me on Friday and asked me if I wanted an unclaimed table... so I jumped on it.

I had a good time, as usual, at Manga NEXT. The crowd is small but always good quality of people. A few clients and friends made my weekend better. was at the table with me and he is one of the coolest guys to chill with. I tried to bring something back for my sons like I normally do when I go to cons but couldn't really leave the table because the traffic was slow and I needed to make a sale any chance I got. I did do a few really cool commissions that I asked the clients to scan and send to me so when I get them, you will see them. One of them is in the gallery now so check it out.

Time to go food shopping so my fam has some stuff to eat before I leave to Virginia this weekend for Nekocon.

Take care all and chat soon,
Pete-

I will be at Nekocon in Virginia Nov. 7-9 and the Video Game Expo in Philly Nov. 21-23.
