Crafting commissions
General
You have a design. You have patterns. And now?
Don't worry if the project is still a bit too advanced for you, that's what commissions are for after all.
If you need a weapon, armour set or any other prop, just let me know.
For crafting I can only work with ranges in the beginning, but you will receive a full and transparent bill at the end of the project.
In general it would go like this:
- Message me with character, prop, fandom, your size/ prop meassurements.
- Do you want any electronic in your prop? Fog, speaker, lights?
- You send me references.
- I'll research the prop in depth and get back to you within a week with a price range.
- You pay Part 1.
- I send you progress pictures.
- You pay Part 2.
- I ship the prop.
Payment can be done in two different splits.
- Material cost only.
- Shipping plus work time.
- Minimum range amount.
- Remaining amount of the finished range plus Shipping

Examples for commission WiPs can be seen down below. All prices are ranges and estimates and ultimately depend on your project. Inquiries are free and non-binding.
Electric fees are always added depending on project size and are rated at 10€/20€/30€/40€/50€.
A paint fee of 15€ can be added if there's many details that each need different colours. in this case I won't charge for each colour.
Offers and price ranges are non-negotiable.
Shops and materials are non-negotiable unless I have to adhere to an allergy. Please inquire in advance so I can tell you if I am able to take on the project anyways.
Please remember to ask at least 2 months in advance.
If a material or process I've never used before is needed in the project I won't charge that.
