Starting
Photographs, a Rough Size, and Your Budget
Three things and we can tell you whether this will work, what it costs, and how long it takes.
Four or five good photographs is enough to tell you whether this will work, what it costs, and how long it takes.
Send these three
That is the whole inquiry. Everything else we will ask about once we have looked.
- Four or five photographs — head-on, both profiles, full body, plus whichever you love.
- Roughly how big you are imagining it, even as a comparison to something on your desk.
- Your budget, honestly. Size and budget are nearly the same decision.
What you get back
An honest answer on whether the photographs will support a good likeness, a recommended size, a price, and a realistic timeline.
If the answer is that it cannot be done well, you get that instead, with the reason. It happens, and it is far better than the alternative.
If the animal is still with you
Take the photographs now, today, before you have decided anything. Head-on, both profiles, full body, at their eye level, in even light.
It takes five minutes and it is the single most useful thing anybody reading this page can do, whether or not you ever commission anything.
FAQ
Common questions
- Do we need to decide the size first?
- No, a rough idea is enough. We will recommend one.
- Do you need the budget?
- It helps a great deal. Size and budget are nearly the same decision.
- How quickly do you reply?
- Same working day.
- What if we are not ready to order?
- Send the photographs anyway. Plenty of these commissions pause and come back later.
