Would you like a custom piece of art done especially for you? I take commissions. While most of the examples here are from City of Heroes/Villains MMORPG, I can draw almost anything, especially if you have some reference! So if you like my style and want something special, let me know and I can most likely accommodate.
Email me at alex@imagesbyalex.com with subject line “commission request” to get started. I accept paypal, at alex@imagesbyalex.com.
Get a sketch and portrait of your favorite character. I’ll need a screenshot and a description of the character. If you have a pose idea, let me know and I’ll take it into consideration, or I’ll make up something cool based on your description.
Portraits will usually be 3/4 view like the examples, unless you specify front or profile. 3/4 view is usually the most interesting, unless your character has a face on the back of it’s head…. If you want more than one character let me know and we’ll figure out a fair price.
These are done in my sketchbook, scanned and you’ll get a large resolution jpeg. I’m working on figuring out prices and shipping costs if you want the original, so stay tuned! Size is around 9”x12”
Sketches in Color: $30.00

Need a little color in your sketch? No problem I can do that. I’ll need a screenshot in color of course, and a description just like a regular sketch. Have a particular a pose idea, let me know and I’ll try to do that for you. These are all digital and you’ll get a high resolution jpeg around 9”x12”
Illustrations
Single Character with simple or no background $175
Special Pricing for illustrations with more than 5 characters
Illustrations are 11”x 17”
Illustrations are more complex pieces in which we will work together to create a piece that is tailored made and specific to you and your character.
During the process, we will discuss in detail your ideas and expectations. I will submit sketches based on your ideas, or if you are daring, my ideas. I will need good screenshots or reference for your character or scene. A bio is always useful and information about your character’s personality is also very helpful.
Once a sketch is approved, it will be moved to a more finished pencil stage where changes can still be made and things tweaked if necessary. Once that is approved the piece will be “inked” and for color pieces, once that has been approved, the coloring stage. Once a piece is inked no major changes can be made. Your input is vital to the process, and I will do my best to create a piece of art that is unique and specific to you.
I currently accept PayPal at alex@imagesbyalex.com
All commissions are prepaid and are nonrefundable unless I cancel the commission. Once payment has cleared, I will start working on your piece and you will receive the final file via a link within 2-4 weeks depending on my schedule. Sketches and Sketches in Color are usually done within a week depending on my schedule.
All files are will be delivered as a high resolution jpeg. I ask that you do not sell anything with my artwork on it. Also since these are paid commissions, I ask that you do not ink, color or alter the work in any way without my consent.
