You think it's impossible? Well, after my previous conquest of 83 critiques in 14 days my energy ground has risen up and so I think this 60-commissions-in-12-weeks goal is quite reasonable. Here's an example of Slytherin's excellence for your viewing pleasure:

And I have tested my endurance with all the contests I've joined & currently joining! I've also seen some artists on Fiverr have done like >600 commission works in just over a few years so I think my target is quite reasonable. Just pray my fire will always on tempered with a highly effective cooling system - lo and behold, you'll find a creator most productive!
 

The project is starting today, May 15, 2017 to approximately August 15, 2017. My plan is to finish at least 5 slots in 7 days (on fire!) but of course there's that possibility of schedule stretching for whatever unpredictable reasons so the deadline is not strict. I realize the success rate & timing of this project would depend on the flow of the order so I'll promote this via any means necessary.

 Serious cat is serious!

For this theme, I'll fly your cat into space, or make them the wisest creature on Earth. It will be the works with mystery, depth, wonder and awe the focus characteristics. I'll do a lot improvisations either on the colors or some objects in the references given to match the theme, so I highly suggest you know what you're looking for (make sure you have a good idea where to put the space background) but of course we can discuss everything beforehand.

There will be 5 price range which designed to increase every time the order reach 12 slots. The reason is simple: as I paint more artworks my skill & style will be getting better and thus the value of the works.   But you can be sure that I'll do my best whatever level my current skill is at and whichever the price range.

1st - 12th client $10
13th - 24th client $15
25th - 36th client $20
37th - 48th client $25
49th - 60th client $30


1st - 20th client $10
21st - 40th client $15
41st - 60th client $20

The client numbering based on total client queue, not order per style.

Commission will be done on A4 watercolor paper, scanned in 300 dpi.

Transaction/Payment

I accept payment via:

1. Payoneer

You don't have to have a payoneer account, but if you want to pay via paypal, then I suggest the next options below.

2. Paypal 

I just got my Paypal account verified on May 20th! Feel free to use this, wait for my invoice before you pay please (same with Payoneer).

3. Fiverr

You need to have a fiverr account as a client, joining is free.

My fiverr account:
Slytherclaw Padawan's fiverr

The fiverr gigs:
Mystery &  Cozy Kitty
Folk-Art Kitty

Paid up front, only then I start working. There will be no refund once we have agreed on the commission to be done - you've sent the reference, the money and I'm doing the work in progress. I work using traditional mediums so I'm afraid there's not much room for revision unless in form of digital enhancing (color adjustment, etc) via Photoshop, so make sure you have a clear idea about what you really want me to paint. You can tell me beforehand if you don't like a certain color or object, and so on.

If you're Deviant Art member (or NON member, you found me/this journal from the great wide internet) and willing to pay via Paypal or Payoneer, send me a note (for Deviant Art member) or email me (for NON member):
slytherclaw.padawan [at] gmail [dot] com

If you are a fiverr member, found me via fiverr.com, please send me a private message that you want to order before deciding to buy a commission. My clients don't come only from fiverr, all will be listed in the Client list journal. I'll add some info to the gig, like: "reserved for [fiverr client username(s)]. for more info please contact via PM, thank you. ", then I'll notify the clients that the slots are open specifically for them.

If there's a completely new order/client coming I'll notify them about this project, show them this journal, and list them as my client on the next queue if they're still interested. For "Folk-Art Kitty" style there will be a separate gig because the price is different, but the order queue still based on the client list _{(always PM first before commissioning! )}.

As this is not an ordinary commission project - I'm running an intense MARATHON taking 12 weeks (probably more but hopefully less) so please be patient while I'm working on your orders, though I'll be entertaining you with additional games during the project if you're a Deviant Art member (joining is free, wouldn't hurt ).

The list of the clients is here: Mega Cat Commission Project :: Client List

To ensure focus & quality I'm going to limit 2 order maximum at a time, probably lasts for 3-4 days depending on the clients' order/discussion, only reopening it again after they're finished. So the client list would be helpful to put you on the right queue.

License Agreement

 The commission works are for personal use only, I'll be keeping the commercial rights for the original. As for the commercial rights for the digital format will be discussed with the clients (details below).

When you're ordering a commission, you're considered to agree to these points:

. Your cat photo must be fully owned by you or public domain or being given a full permission from the original owner to be used as a reference for this commercial project. The clients will be responsible shall any problem arise regarding to the usage rights of the reference photos.

. You are allowing the derivative product of the photo - in this case cat painting by me in physical form - to be sold commercially either to you or the open market if you're not interested to buy the original.

. You (Deviant Art member or not) are allowing the derivative product of the photo - in this case cat painting by me in digital form at maximum 80% of the full image resolution (you'll be keeping the 100% resolution) - to be incorporated in stationary pack design as bonus goodies/giveaways  (so it's also already modified; details about goodies will be explained below) shared among all clients participating. If you're not a Deviant Art member I'll send the gift to you via email but there will be extra mini games I'll be holding via Deviant Art, reserved only for the clients of this project so non-members will miss it. As I said, joining wouldn't hurt.

But If you think this commission-result-sharing isn't fair  (you want to keep your kitty to yourself and of course my portfolio) then you're free to NOT order a commission from me at the moment.  This commission project is kind of cat-worshiping celebration.  I might be opening another ordinary cat commission gigs once this project is over, you're still interested that is.

What will be discussed:

I'm planning to sell the prints out of this commission works BUT if you don't want me to you can just tell me.   At the end of the transaction I'll ask this to all clients whether I may use the derivative product of the photo - in this case the cat painting by me in digital form - to be sold commercially by me as Deviant Art prints and also in other sites outside Deviant Art.

If you don't respond within 7 x 24 hours after the main transaction is finished I'll take it that you agree that I may sell the prints.

What the clients will receive:

1. Full-resolution cat painting in digital format with artist's signature (not watermark), painted in A4 paper, scanned in 300 dpi. In Deviant Art I'll be posting the one with a watermark on but for the client I'll email or give them the link to the unwatermarked version.

2. Random giveaways in digital format (printables) ranging from simple bookmarks to full monthly calendar based on total 60 cat paintings in digital format, maximum 80% of the total image resolution, unwatermarked. These bonuses will be given to clients through raffles & games I'll announce every 5 or 10 slots finished, so while I want everyone to win something not every client will receive all of these. But I'll make sure every client get some freebies.  

There will be also project pre-launch games for all Deviant Art members to promote this commission, so yes, let's let the cats rule!

Contact and News Update

Got questions? Or can't wait to commission me? Send me a note or comment on this journal (or go straight to this journal, comment to be listed as client: Mega Cat Commission Project :: Client List) or via email: slytherclaw.padawan [at] gmail [dot] com.

This is my first commission & marathon project (still willing to try nevertheless!) so I'll be open to input & change for the better. Feedback & critiques are welcome.


As the project going on this journal will be regularly updated, I might also post any progress or change in other new journals so for a Deviant Art member if you're going to be a client it would be convenient if you watch me for the moment. If by any reason you decide to unwatch later it's 100% F.I.N.E. A-OK by me.
