Eclipsing Art
Artist, Memer, and lover of cute things
Hi, I'm Kate! I like to draw a range of cute and pretty anime-inspired styles.
If you're interested in getting something custom made, let's get in touch!
COMMISSIONS
Offerings and prices are subject to change. If there is something in particular you are interested in and don't know what it falls under, just let me know and we can work it out. Thanks for your interest! You can contact me via email (preferred, for visibility) or DM on social media.
Payment
Currently I accept Paypal, Ko-fi, or Venmo. Payment information will be given during discussion. I typically ask to be paid upfront, though for $100+ commissions, we can work out a half upfront payment if that is more comfortable due to the longer time it'd take for me to work on more complex artwork. If for whatever reason I cannot complete the work, I will refund if I have not started.
How To Commission
Send me an email at [email protected] (or DM me on social media, but there's a risk I won't see it) with the following info:1. What subject you want - with refs would be best! If you don't have refs for a character, having similar photos is helpful too. If you have a specific pose in mind, finding a photo is best but if you wanna be jank and draw a stick figure I'm not going to say no to that.
2. What kind of commission type; fully rendered, sketch, etc. whether it is full character, partial, multi character
3. Intended payment method (Paypal, Ko-fi)
4. Any other comments like special notes about when you need this by (particular date, or flexible). You don't have to tell me what it is for but if you think it'll be helpful for me to know that to add any artistic decisions for it, that's fine. Also maybe include best form of contact for you; I'll just respond to email by default, but if you prefer DM on twitter/ig/discord then I can do that.I may have follow-up questions! Please don't pay me until we agree on something!
Unless otherwise noted because of my schedule (or because it's a really complex piece), please alot 2 weeks to receive your artwork! A lot of times if it's a relatively simple piece you get it within a week, but 2 week is standard to allow for anything else I have going on (I work full time 😔). I may send sketches during progress to receive feedback.
Commission Types and Prices
The following table contains baseline prices for various commission types. The different prices for each line of the table indicates bust, half-body, and full-body illustrations respectively. e.g. XYZ costs 10/20/30 means a bust of type XYZ 10 while a full-body illustration costs 30. Please note that, again, these are baseline prices and if the subject is more complex in some manner, urgent turnaround time, etc, the price can be a little higher since it would take more effort, time, or affects my prioritization and scheduling. In most cases though, they have not really been much different.Commercial use: Price adjustments are expected with discussion. This grants the commissioner full rights to the art and permission to use for monetized endeavors (however I retain the right to still display in my portfolio after it is public, unless specified otherwise). This multiplier can be discussed and modified. Examples:
- music album art or book cover illustration
- professional organization promotional art
- gaming studio asset
- art for physical and digital merchandisingNon-commercial note: For clarification, the following are examples that do not fall under commercial use. You can post to social media. Crediting me somewhere at least once would be appreciated.
- DnD campaign character illustration
- social media banner
- wall art to hang at home
- Twitch/Discord emotes for use in chat only (not for merch)
- stream background
- character reference sheetI understand there could be instances where it may seem blurry whether there is a commercial aspect. If you're not sure, let's discuss and come to an agreement on something that works for both of us :)
| Type | Description | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Full Render | These are fully colored, fully rendered pieces. They are neat, with shading and lighting and details. Really great for illustrative pieces or nice detailed poster style to showcase your desired character! Please note this price does not include complex backgrounds (see backgrounds section). | 100/150/200 |
| Simple Color | These are a bit simpler than the fully rendered tier. They have minimal, shading and do not show too much detail. Pretty decent for if you want a nice colored drawing but on a budget. | 50/70/100 |
| Sketch | Sketches tend to be rough but can be great for depicting a great idea you have! Sketches can be simple color fill or tinted lines/areas instead of just black & white lines. | 25/35/50 |
| Emote | Simple icons that can be used on your profile avatar or Twitch emotes/badges. | Simple - 15 Shaded - 20 |
| Backgrounds | All prior listings are under the assumption of minimal or simple background. Color fills, patterns, lighting gradients, simple props and sketched simple backgrounds are free. More complex background pieces may require further discussion on pricing. This can be anywhere from a small $30 bump to a couple $100s more. Highly illustrative pieces will usually have a large background cost because of the composition and rendering effort. | Varies |
| Multiple Characters Together | Above prices are for single character. There is a discount for additional characters in the same piece. Additional character is ~3/4 of the price. If you are looking for a very large cast of characters, this scaling may be affected and it is best to discuss. More than ~6 characters interacting in a single drawing is out of my comfort zone and I may recommend you to find another artist. | (see description) |
Below are some examples of art and what they would roughly correspond to in the table above. Please check the Gallery tab to see more examples (emotes, stickers, etc). Especially for more full render illustrative pieces.

TERMS OF SERVICE
General
Refer to my past/works/examples to know what kind of art I can deliver. If there is something you see that does not seem to be listed, let me know and we can discuss it.
I have the right to refuse a commission. This is an agreement of a product/service and payment for both parties.
A full refund will only be granted before sketch has been delivered. In the case that the work is cancelled partway though, a partial refund can be done.
Commissions usually take around 2 weeks, but may take as long as 1 month depending on content and my schedule. I will let you know a clearer estimate once we agree on subject and payments, and I will contact you in the event something came up that may affect the schedule (e.g. emergency, illness)
Commissions are for personal use (Twitch Emotes/Icons/Profile/Banners/Visual asset for your website are fine) unless stated otherwise. Please let me know if you intend to use for commercial purposes, like book cover, merch, advertisement, etc. so we can work out modifiers or special payment contract.
This personal use clause applies to the artwork at any stage, such as sketches or works in progress pictures that I may send to you.
Examples of appropriate use: desktop wallpaper, printing for yourself and family (not selling online or in person), profile picture on social media, asset for your website, profile page. Essentially, there can not be any distribution of the artwork on merchandise or other products such as games. Clients may not edit, claim, reproduce, or profit from noncommercial commission. Unless stated otherwise.
You may not use the artwork for NFTs and other similar crypto projects. It is against my values and I do not wish for my art to be used in that way.
Similarly, do NOT use my art for AI projects. Do not feed my artwork into a genAI model.
All art must be credited if displayed in your online gallery, profile page badge, etc. If you have more than 1 asset from me, just crediting 1 time somewhere is fine. Links appreciated, but at minimum something like "Artwork by Eclipsing" or "Emotes by Eclipsing".
I preserve any and all rights to the noncommercial commission (e.g. - distribution, reproduction, promotions). In most cases, that will mean using it as part of my portfolio and promotions. For things like your original character, for example, I will not put that on merchandise because you still own the character idea.
The commission work I create may be displayed, and credited. If I use your original character illustration as a portfolio piece, I will credit you on social media. If you require a NDA or a delayed posting schedule (e.g. for VTuber reveal, for long term project), please state this upfront and we can work this out.
The commission work may be livestreamed or posted as a finished video on such websites like YouTube to document the drawing process, unless it is agreed upon beforehand not to.
Designing a new character from scratch may result in additional fees due to design iterations.
Commercial use commissions will cost more. Please specify and we can come to an agreement.
