most of you know that since I started to collab with Isaac, I've been doing a fack load of commission work on models. Usually, well most of the portraits I have done are all females. Because I love working with them, not going to bull crap you on that. I do prefer to work on female since their portraits do have this expressional outcome even if it isn't digitally altered, which is why i love to experiment my style of vectoring on their portraits or body as a whole. It provides me the creative freedom in making my strokes more solid as well as making it (hopefully) a 'signature style' for myself for people to identify.

I have done commission work on male models, families, groupies, logos, and bands. I will admit it is rare that I do them but then again it depends on the indivdual and their interest. If they 'dig' my style of vectoring. Then i am all ears and will give you an estimated rate on how long your portrait will take as well as the cost.

In return all I ask is that you are patient enough to wait for your portrait to be developed or framed, or both to be collected when it is done. I try to juggle as many as i can. so go easy on me please.

Ok..

The next information is really a 'low down' on what I do and need for your portrait to work out.

Please do not be afraid to contact me, just because i work on a lot of models or fan arts doesn't mean i am not interested in working on other photos. The only reason why i have done that many is because the ones i have successful completed were the ones who were interested and were comfortable with my style and art direction. All in all, if you got one for me to do. then i'll do it.


Not all portraits I do maybe accurate:
This is due to the quality of photo submitted to me. If it is a 'LOW RESOLUTION' photo I will charge more than the usual price, coz they are a freaking 'MISSION' to vector and colour. and may not be accurate. With low res i do the best i can do with them and i will inform you of updates and changes.

High res photos are accurate outcomes of my vector style:
'HIGH RESOLUTION' photos are easier and retain a lot of detail and qaulity for me to work on and from. So I would encourage these types of photos. Since i've worked on a lot of them, all of which are accurate and have been altered to my style to make it more than just the usual portrait. I try and will add some creaitve flaire to it with my strokes. My aim of my style is to make it different but try to keep my stlye consistently through out.


When the portrait is completed, there are two methods I do. Most of you should notice that the models I work from are from America. So I send files to them when payment is received into my paypal. its easier for me and for them. I send either colour or black and white, depending on what they paid for.

I do not ship or post framed pictures abroad, coz its a head ache. I have tried it and its really a waste of time and my money.

However if you are London UK - based. I am more than happy to travel to you or half way or depending on you where you want to meet up to collect your digital prints, or framed prints. I would love to meet you and hand it to you in person. Or I can send you the files to your email account when it is done and payment is received.


This is an important note: I DO NOT AND WILL NOT SELL OTHER PEOPLES PORTRAIT FILES TO ANYONE, for copyright issues and artists trust between myself and models and photographers. I don't sell without their consent. Please understand that, its a respect thing of their work and my work too.

I ONLY sell files of portraits I do of YOU and YOU ONLY. The files that I send to you belong to you, please do not distrubute them to anyone else or make any other altercations without my knowledge and my consent.


I have got permission from most models to sell the portraits i did commissioned work of them in framed or digital prints. So if you see anything you like in my gallery. Let me know in advance so i can print them or get them framed for you and i'll contact you via phone or mail to arrange a destination in london for us to meet and you to collect. As said before I will personally deliver it myself to you for you to collect and check it out. At the end of the day I want you to be happy with the service you are paying for, as well as seeing the initial reaction on your faces when i turn your photos into my vector arts. So me travelling to you in london isn't a problem. As long as you don't leave too far away its all good.


If you're cool with this, as well as respecting the terms and condition from both parties, myself and the photographers and the modelss. i can get the prints printed or framed, OR i can get YOUR portrait printed or framed.


i'm a phone call away or an email away. I always ask for a deposit first before i attempt in making the process of vectoring your photo. Or if you want to meet up for a brief moment and discuss this more in person, then yeah i am keen on doing that also, I would love to meet people in person to see and understand you and to sell my style to you. Just to see what the vibe is.

As for me, I'm a down to earth guy, what you see is what you get and what you read is what you get, i'm just a 'normal dude' - lol, if you are a fan of my stuff. god bless and i love you all for the support and interest you have given me as well as the positive feedback from then to now and ongoing. For sure, 100% i'll be the best person i can be to make this work out for you and me both.


if this doesn't make any sense, i'll shorten it if i can.


I had to add 'everything' that i have been doing and what has been asked quite a lot about my portraits.


ok so here is my email is khuan_tru@yahoo.co.uk

and my phone number is 07727 286 062, call me anytime you wish. try to avoid calling from a blocked or private number as i refuse to pick up on those lines.


Thanks for reading and hopefully i'll get to work on anyone who is interested!! and see you soon in person or not. lol


regards and god bless.

Thanks for the watch and the faves. :)
I'm seriously in awe at your artwork. The detail is amazing yet it still looks 'rough' if you understand what I mean?
It's raining in my part of London too. I hate winter.

hey there. we've got a bit of rain in london and the strangest thing is that its not too bad, its quite warm. lol, thanks for the comment on the work. although i have been vectoring this for some years now, i am still learning on it. lol, yeah it is a rough eh? i try to go for simple methods of colouring but for some odd reason i preffer brushing it until it is looking 'rough'. there is this one i am working on, maybe i may just go for the simple colouring scheme on this or do both. lol - where abouts in london you from?

I hate the rain, especially warm rain.
I quite like the roughness, it adds edge. Though sometimes I guess a softer more simple colouring scheme suits better. In what I've seen of your art so far though I think it adds more to the character.
I'm from NW London, you?
