Hello to all at EIGHT Wealth Management!

My name is Chris Coltburn, it’s my pleasure to be presenting my keen interesting in the request for commercial illustrators.

Over the decade I have been working as a freelance illustrator I have had the great pleasure of working with many commercial, customer facing businesses to create memorable characters, eye catching infographics and peripherial art for presentations or public display.

Although my recent years have been spent supplying mainly tactical related industries, this has been more of a supply and demand categorical niche more than a personal choice. So if I may urge you to please judge my suitability based on the style and not the content of the image.

So that you may be able to make the most informed decision, I would be more than happy to complete an illustrative task for you with no risk. Something like a character or some kind of asset. If you are happy then we can add it to the opening invoice for the project, if not then there is no charge.

I hope you can consider my application and I look forward to the chance to chat with you in more detail about the opportunity.

I have commissioned hiwez for a lot of work work over the past 4 years now and he has never failed to deliver.
His professionalism is unmatched. Not only can he run with an idea but he keeps you in the loop through all the stages to make sure he is bringing your exact vision to life.

COSTS and turnaround time

You can find my rates below. In terms of turnaround time I try to work as fast as I can but no project is created equal. Once I have a better idea of the kind of work you’re hoping to achieve I will be more than happy to give a confident timeline.

But hopefully an example will suffice in the time being.
A single character, of the style and detail you have seen above usually takes a day or two.
Meanwhile the infographics are usually set to a two day turnaround.

But of course, this is all subject to feedback speed and volume. Without further ago, the rates.

DAY RATE

£350GBP per day

HOURLY RATE

£50GBP per hour

Costs are based on my standard annual rate, however I appreciate that projects are not all created equal in terms of their requirements so if you have a creative budget you need to adhere to I would be happy to have a chat and find a number that works for both parties.
