FFXIV Paint-Overs
These commissions are where the client provides a screenshot from the game, Final Fantasy XIV, that they would like me to work from. I sometimes call these "repaints" because I'm essentially tracing over the screenshot - altering, removing, or adding details such as fixing anatomy and clipping, as I go. And then painting over the screenshot itself. All while accounting for lighting changes - if needed - shading, texturing, and other details. It is important that the client provides the screenshot they would like reworked in this manner, as I can only add in so many details myself. More info in the bullet points below:
-
Clients must provide a screenshot or gpose they've taken themselves from the game. This screenshot must contain most of the information the client would like in the final. This includes, characters, weapons, clothing, setting, and pose. Lighting and mood will likely be enhanced for full effect in the final, but commissioners are free to request changes to see what's possible. I.e. changing a bright and sunny day to a dark and dreary one. I prefer if this information is already in the screenshot, however.
-
They must tell me if any details they may like altered, removed, or added, and provide appropriate references. Please note that these are small changes or additions only. Unless the client is willing to pay for the extra time and work, I will not be adding in any characters or assets that are not already present in the screenshot. I.e. Rendering or adding an entirely different weapon, outfit, character, or detailed background.
-
Clients must be clear on what they would like done with the background - whether they'd like for it to be abstract as in the example, or kept largely as is in the screenshot provided.
-
Things I can add or change upon request;
-
Adding or removing scars, markings, changing eye or hair color
-
Adding or removing small details on weapons or clothes such as wear and tear, slight color changes, removal of certain features (i.e. removing an extra barrel on a gun, or changing the color from gold to silver on the handle or blade of a sword.)
-
Very minor shifts in positioning of limbs or the direction eyes may be looking
-
Facial expression (though it's very much preferred that this is already provided in the screenshot)
-
Minor changes to background lighting or weather
-
Removing an entire character or other feature.

-
If you're unsure of what I can and can't do, feel free to ask!
-
Most Add-On pricing will not apply to these unless I feel it is necessary. I.e. making large changes to the screenshot in the paint-over such as adding a new character, changing a weapon, etc.
