Hello!

 
I'm Ulfeid3, a self-taught Italian illustrator currently based in London with a background in graphic design and advertising.
 
My art is heavily influenced by anything fantasy, old myths, fables, and often inspired by nature, dreamscapes and vibrant colors.
 

✧✦✧

When I’m not drawing on commissions, I’m usually out taking long walks in the park with my SO, getting lost in a videogame or reading.
 
My favourite genres are anything fantasy, grim-dark and historical fiction!
 

 

 

The process

 

The process

Let me walk you through my commission process step by step! If you have any questions read the F.A.Q. or contact me directly.

✦ BRIEF: a quick chat via email to discuss all the details about your project.
✦ CONTRACT: signed agreement to keep things safe & clear for both of us.
✦ DEPOSIT: 10% or 50% to be paid upfront to book a spot on the waitlist.
✦ SKETCHES: you get two rough concepts to choose from; at this stage, everything can be changed and adjusted to make sure it reflects your vision.
✦ RENDERING: the fun part for me! I’ll paint and refine the illustration, then send an intermediate update. Includes one or more small tweaks.
✦ FEEDBACK: I'll show you a preview for approval; major changes at this stage will be valuated on a case-by-case basis, and require an additional fee.
✦ PAYMENT: remaining balance is due before final files delivery.
✦ DELIVERY: you'll receive the high-resolution artwork files via email.
 

 
 

F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the estimated turnaround time for a commission? +

Starting from 1 to 6 weeks, heavily depending on current waitlist and workload.
Feel free to inquire about last minute projects; rush fee is +50-100% extra of total price.

Should I book in advance? +

Spots on my waitlist fill up very quickly and I am almost always fully booked, so I usually recommend reaching out at least 3-4 months before your desired project start date.

Do you offer payment plans? +

Of course! I accept full upfront payments, 50-50 payments, or I can arrange a custom payment plan milestone-based. Feel free to ask about it!

What if I am working on a set budget? +

No worries, just let me know upfront and I'll see what I can do to find the best option for you.
