Dear Mr.Helldorf.
Thank you for your message.
And thank you for choosing me as a creator of GNU project mascott.
It is my pleasure that my cetacean arts go over world wide.
But My concern is just for "time".
Please let me know how much time I can spend for creation.
Generally, I would like to have 3 weeks at least for this kind of work.
(i.e. You will get final rendering in the second week of March. )
Below depects general workflow.
A rough image you sent me was enough for me to know what you like to
get.
After your order, I will show you 2 or 3 prototypes in the next week.
You will be able to choose the best one amoung them, and I can hear
your additional requests for them.
After that, I will work for final rendering in next 2 weeks.
I will provide you in high resolution TIFF file suitable for
publishing.
You will be able to download it from my web server.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.
Regarding copyright, I am a supporter of open source policy,
so I will agree if my work for GNU will be distributed under GNU
license policy.
Best wishes.
