Audio Commissions - Open (3/3)

Art Commission Info

Every art commission is fully colored and shaded unless requested otherwise.You have the option of doing a simple background or keeping the file transparent for no additional charge.Ordering a set of least 4 emotes leads to an automatic discounted total price.Basic PNGTuber commissions come with 4 sprites (combinations of open and closed eyes and mouth). There is also a deluxe package that comes with 2 additional sets of expressions (8 additional sprites) and a reference sheet for your character. For complicated designs or custom (by me) designs, there will be an increase in price. There will also be a price increase for additional expressions.Prices higher than base prices come from things like more detailed backgrounds, very dynamic poses, and multiple characters.

Please contact me over Discord (@akutagawaslut) to commission me!

2. Instrumentals
3. Lyric Writing/Vocal Demo (English only)

Instrumentals can either be instrumental loops (perfect for streaming!) or instrumentals for original songs.Note: Please inquire with a sort of vibe in mind rather than set lyrics and melody.
