~ Artist Trading Cards, or sometimes known as ACEO cards ~
I've found time to start drawing again and I'm sure the inspiration has a lot to do with Stormblood coming out. I've also managed to find an entire blank deck of ACEO cards during a recent move and I'm having way too much fun filling these cards out. So I figure, why not do some ACEO/ATC commissions?
These are 2.5 x 3.5 inch cards that I'll send to you or any address you specify in a protective card toploader (the plastic covers you see in the photo.) While being mailed, the toploader will have a single piece of low-tack washi tape sealing the top and keeping the card in it's home. The tape can totally be removed once you get it. Shipping is covered in the commission cost. ^_^Â
You will also get a digitally scanned and cleaned image like the ones shown below, so you don't have to take the card out and scan it. You're free to display the digital copy wherever you like and edit/resize it as needed for your own purposes. My only request is that you do not remove signatures and keep the artist credit.Â
Accepted forms of payment: Paypal Only!

How long does it take?
I'll have a completion date set, but it should not be longer than a week from artist confirmation (this is the email I send you essentially saying I'm starting that day!) It should honestly be far less than a week, but I'm going to say a week from artist confirmation *max* in case something major in life gets in the way.Â
Upon completion of the art itself, I'll send you the digital copy via email with the tracking # included from USPS.Â
Shipping an item this size through USPS is usually about 3 days within the United States (mailing from California) or sooner, depending on how far it has to go. Shipping to Canada shouldn't be much longer, and UK, maybe a week? Once I have some solid data on how long it takes to ship to these countries, I'll update this section.

Disclaimers & Insurance for real-item transactions
Having the physical card mailed to you is your choice — if you are not comfortable disclosing your mailing address, that's entirely understandable. I will be happy to give the finished card a good home amongst other artwork. Gifting art to another address (friends, partners, family members, etc.) is nice, however, I would prefer to mail it directly to the buyer, as I don't feel keen on the risk of the gift-recipient not receiving the product. All shipments will be insured through USPS in the case of things being lost in the mail or damaged in transit. All sales are final and lost or unreceived package claims will be handled through USPS & Paypal.Â

If your card arrives, but it is damaged, please send me a picture of said damages (must be significant bending, tearing, warping, or weather damage) and I will happily refund you 60% of the total purchase (this is fair, yeah? Given that the buyer does still receive a high-resolution scan of the physical copy?)

Character Personality:
Character Personality:
EXAMPLE — My character is a stern and serious hyur who bears scars from his battles in Ishgard. He smiles very little, and when he does, it's barely-there. He has intensity in his grey eyes and an air of ice about him that seems to imply the snows of Ishgard felt like home to him.
What situation shall I draw this character in?:Â
EXAMPLE — He has a soft-spot for takoyaki. He comes across a vendor in the Kugane markets selling steaming-hot takoyaki. He is walking away from the busy vendor with his freshly-procured takoyaki in hand, blowing it's steam aside with gentle puffs. His trek through Kugane has been good to him this evening.
