KELLIE BOWEN
TTRPG Character Designer/Illustrator
Greetings, weary traveler! Welcome to Pixel Quest, a realm of art, muses, and imagination. Donate to help me procure samples for my TTRPG-themed shop, explore my blog on art, fitness, and collecting, or better yet—let’s collaborate and bring your character to life with a custom commission!
Character commissions are currently OPEN!
Character Commissions
Here's how it works:
Firstly, you'll be able to go to my Fiverr or Gumroad listings to select your which level of commission you would like to order for your character!
The tier prices will be provided in my Fiverr listing. Each bundle has a basic, standard, and premium tier (listed top to bottom of the table below):
Full Body Character Design - $60 USD
My basic tier will provide a front-facing, full body character. This will also be full color (unless you say otherwise).
Design + Character Model Sheet - $100 USD
The standard tier is (in my opinion) the best one! You'll get the basic character design, and a full character model sheet, which will include:
- A front, back and side turn around
- 3 emotes
- A half-body/close-up pose
- Items that are important to your character
- A Chibi version of your character!
Illustration - $125 USD
And the premium tier will include all of the above AND an illustration of your character in action! They could be in a fight, showing off their powers, or lounging in a cafe. It's up to you!
After selecting the commission option on either Fiverr or Gumroad, you'll be able to send me a message to explain what you'd like to order and describe what your character looks like!I. Intake
One of the first things I'll send you is a Google Form questionnaire to know you and your character better (race, class, gender, backstory).
This is a collaboration first and foremost! Communication is VITAL!!! I often start a project by giving myself a lot of artistic liberty, so if you want make sure your character has certain physical attributes, props, etc, please let me know BEFORE I complete a design. I am very responsive in chat, as -- like I said -- communication is VITAL.II. Sketches:
I will send you a three sketch concepts for an overall review. After you select a concept you like the most and add your own input, I'll make the revisions and send it back to you before moving onto the final drawing (before color, shading, etc.) For the sake of time, this second round of input will be your last chance for telling me about any more character ideas/attributes that may not have been covered in the questionnaire.III. Illustration & Layout:
I'll then complete the definitive design of your character. I'll allow ONE more SMALL revision if it's important. Please keep in mind that I work in several different layers and making revisions on a final product is tedious and difficult.IV. Beyond the BASIC Tier:
If you've selected any other levels of commission, this is where we can have fun! You character's design is established, and I have gotten to know them well. Depending on what you order, we can further discuss your needs in your TTRPG experience.
Is there a certain scene that you wanted to be illustrated? Is the charm around your character's neck more elaborate than what's depicted in the character design? Perhaps this is a gift you're going to present to your party! We can get nitty gritty with things as they fit within the parameters of the bundle you've ordered before I even put stylus to screen!To begin, please reach out via email or submit a request via Fivver. I eagerly look forward to working with you!

About the Artist
I'm Kellie, also known as Kellz. I am a character artist, illustrator and blogger.
I’m your humble scribe, Kellz. And I've given this little slice of the Internet a facelift. Instead of only posting about my journey as an amature bikini competitor, I want to share EVERYTHING that makes my heart sing and my mind function. For those who do the star thing, I'm a Sagittarius, whatever that means. I'm introverted, but I'm particularly good at communicating virtually.For example, I would like to use this platform to now also share my experience of going through beauty school and document this next chapter in my life. Not to mention I’d like to share how I’m going to figure out DMing and my experience running a campaign. Hopefully some of you can give me some pointers. I also want to share fun coffee recipes (usually with protein in it)! I want to gush over the muses who inspire me. I want to vent about the books I’m reading or show the thrift finds I scored. I just want to create stuff not just to sell, but stuff that I would buy or read or digitally consume.I am currently planted in Oregon, but my roots are in Colorado. While I cherish the misty grays and evergreens of the Pacific Northwest, my skin yearns for sunshine, cold beers, and the warm embrace of Vitamin D. I live with two delightful cats, have found myself an extraordinary blue-collar man, and take joy in both the quiet solitude of reading, drawing, and writing, as well as the lively energy of my wonderfully eclectic circle of friends. My love of vampires began with Underworld, and my infatuation with fantasy took root the moment I saw The Lord of the Rings in theaters.There, now we're not strangers anymore, are we?
