As you guys all saw and figured out yesterday was my birthday. First I want to thank everyone for the well-wishing. I'm not as active on DeviantArt as perhaps I should be and I don't know many of you personally but the thanks are well appreciated. So is the anonymous Premium account that someone granted me! I have no idea who you are but thanks... now I need to figure out how the premium actually works and then I can take advantage of it.

I also want to say that I'm actually open for commissions, I've already completed one and I'm still working on the other. The ground rules are pretty much the same as in my last post. I won't do artwork for ideas, objects, and things under copyright and trademark because I don't want to have the legal bothers. In other words, I won't do fan-art. The only exception is if you have clearance from the original creators of said material. Good luck on that.

Second, I don't have a fixed price for things. I'm open to negotiating on prices and I can give you a quote based on the scope of work you'd like me to do. If its a large project it can be broken down into pieces and priced per component. Payment is via Paypal.

I'm also open for contract positions as an artist for game development projects or doing graphics for games. I've had one or two offers in the past for such things and I'm open for them now.

If you want to approach me for commissions work, shoot me mail at Norsehound@gmail.com. Talk about what you want to do for the project, list some parameters, and I'll correspond with you on getting the work done. I also typically send updates of the work in progress, since I WILL charge extra if you change the parameters drastically on me when approaching completion. On the other hand, such correspondence guides the project to the satisfaction of the client.

While arting I also want to ask if I can use the work for my portfolio. While part of the reason for taking commissions is money, the other is recognition and portfolio work.

Again, thank you everyone for the birthday wishes. Happy holidays!
