Phish

 Floating on through life.

I do character art. Detailed commission info to come. For now just shoot me a line. The only things I really don't do are furries and giant robots. See my blog about custom amigurumi keychains.

Copied from my journal on y!Gallery:

 I'm going to start taking commissions for custom amigurumi doll keychains like the one I did here: 

They are about 3 1/2 inches tall (9 cm) without the key ring. They are made from 100% wool yarn. Facial features and small details are embroidered on. (I used to use beads for eyes but I noticed they had a tendency to get pulled off so I switched to stitched eyes) Hair is made from the same wool as the dolls. They are stuffed with polyester fiberfill. The key ring is a standard double ring attached to the doll with a much smaller double ring. (again, I used to use jump rings, but they didn't stand up to the amount of wear that keychains take, so I switched to the double rings.)

Please keep in mind that I have to simplify character design to accommodate the fact that the dolls are essentially little blobs without legs and there is only so much detail you can fit at their small scale. I will send you a sketch for approval before I begin work.

I have several yarn colors on hand, but if need be I can special order yarn, but it will add to the time I need to make the doll.

Price is $30 US per doll. Price includes shipping within the United States. I will ship internationally, but it will cost a little extra. The price will vary by country as it is more expensive to ship to some countries than others.

Payment will be due half when you approve the sketch, half when I finish the doll. I greatly prefer payment via paypal, but I can also accept postal money orders if paypal is not an option for you.

Turn around time is about one month.

If you decide to commission me, please provide me with a picture from the mid thigh up from both the front and the back (as a minimum. Feel free to send me extra pictures if you think they will help) or a very detailed written description of the character.
