Do you take payment plans or have any “Terms of Service”:
First payment will be 2x the price of the figure (figure + down deposit) + shipping to me + PP fees if I am going to buy the figure from the store. If I am being sent the figure from the commissioner or from the store the down deposit will only be the price of the figure + PP fees.
Second payment will be the remainder of the commission cost + shipping to the commissioner + PP fees.Allow 2 – 6 weeks for the figure to be completed. Larger and more complex figures will take longer to paint.
A clear idea and/or reference photos is greatly appreciated, but I can work with something like “silhouette/scenery of x” or “space-themed.”
I have a lot of paint, rhinestones, and glitter, so I can work on anything from simple pieces to bright flashy ones.I reserve the right to refuse a commission for any reason.

While more of a lurker on the forum, I am responsive to PMs and emails, so if you have a question about something those are the best methods of contacting me.Another dragon is done!
This curiously-colored dragon is called Hologram. It was used to test out some holographic foil transfer sheets I had bought from ebay. While they didn’t work out as well as I would have liked, the areas with the foil still look pretty cool (lower half of body, wings, horns and spinal plates). The belly is painted with Dragonfly holographic paint and the rest is just Sparks paint over a black base.
Excess foil sheets and paint will be used to make some Christmas ornaments to minimize waste.
I think the foil transfer sheets would work much better on a smooth surface like the sushi cats. Might do that in the future…
This is kinda Cool! Maybe the PYO Uni would work better with the sheets too.
IN SEARCH OF MY NEXT GRAILS:
Black Peacock & Butternut Adult Poads
Kickstarter 'Rainbow Tiger' Bantam Dragon*~*~*~* Ela_Hara: The DragonKeeper *~*~*~*
*** Come visit me on deviantArt at http://ela-hara.deviantart.comOh wow! Nice dragon! I love your work!

Oh wow, that’s really cool! I’d never have even thought of using foil sheets, that’s such a neat idea, and it looks really cool too!

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Thankyou.:) The foiled areas look really nice irl, my camera phone just can’t capture it properly. Hopefully whatever comes from round 2 of using transfer foils ends up even better than this one.
Finally started working on the lava dragon again.
I wasn’t sure what to do with some of the body parts so it ended up sitting around in WIP limbo for a bit. Right now I’m not even sure if I’m going to keep the mouth and nose as they are…. but I’m worried if I paint over the mouth with black the nose will stand out like a big red and yellow thumb…
Glad to see the lava dragon again, he’s so cool looking. I’m very familiar with WIP limbo, I spend a large amount of time there as well, so I know how that feels! Haha!

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Thanks. He’ll get done slowly but surely.
Also the edit I made to the post didn’t save so i’ll put it here – the camera picked up more red than black on the mouth so the blending isn’t showing up well.
Well, I finally got around to trying to foil a sushi cat and…..
Like any cat, this one refused to photograph properly. There’s a lot of holographic spots that the camera just refused to focus on.
Looks kind of like shattered glass, though I was really hoping for more of a solid foil, like a decoupage (I think that’s the word I’m looking for…).
Since it didn’t come out quite as envisioned I might do a reverse silhouette sort of thing.
