Finish:

If you ask for a sketch, I will render it in pencil
on paper.
A lineart is very clean, inked, black and white lines.
These are ideal for coloring. Be sure to check the different
'inking' techniques I have on offer.
Base colors are blocks of color being added,
into lineart. They are not shaded.
Cel shading will result in anime or cartoon style
shading, with cleanly defined, unrealistic shadows.
Airbrush shading is more photorealistic, with softer
interaction between light and shade.
   

Layout:

A headshot will cut off at (at most) the top of
the shoulders or the base of the neck)
A bust shot will cut off just above the stomach.
A waistshot can cut off as low as the thighs,
depending on your preference.
A full shot encircles the entire character, and is
for all shots containing most of the character. If a picture
stops just above the feet, for example, that is a full shot.

Inking:

Manga (pen) inking is my USUAL technique, and
creates a more natural line
.
Digital comic inking is similar to manga inking, but
creates a different atmosphere.
Anime inking can create very fine lines. These can
be used to give the effect of a television shot.
Lineless arts are also an option for airbrushed
characters only. (There is a price increase for the use
of this technique, please consult the price chart)

Background:

Sketched backgrounds are rendered on paper with
pencil.
A background can be finished in lineart. A lineart is
very clean, inked, black and white lines. Check the different
'inking' techniques I have on offer.
Backgrounds can be cel-shaded, much like characters
are.
Airbrush shading is more photorealistic, with softer
interaction between light and shade. A background done in
airbrushing will be lineless (unless otherwise requested)

Extra:

I can achieve a 'copics effect' with the computer;
this can only be used on cel shaded works.
I can use authentic copics to color a picture; this is currently
only compatible with cel shaded art, as well as traditionaly drawn lines
(pen). (There is a price increase for the use of this technique, please
consult the price chart) I will only use this technique if the artwork is to be snailmailed to you.
I can add a comic book style to an image if it is cel
shaded or airbrush shaded.
Manga shading (tones, solid black and white) are an
option. They are the same as 'base colors'.
