You risk nothing.

You see him before anything ships. If he is not right, I keep revising at no cost, or you get every dollar back.

I'm Jan. You work with me directly. I answer every message myself.

You can tell when he talks about it. His voice shifts. He gets animated, like he is somewhere else for a second.

He has described this character for years. You have heard the name, maybe a story or two. You have never actually seen his face.

This painting is the version of him only his table gets to see, his face and his character on one canvas, from a photo of him.

  • Built for first timers. You do not need to know anything technical.
  • Send one photo and whatever you know about him. I ask the rest.
  • Hand painted by me, so it looks like him, not a template.
  • Unlimited revisions until you look at it and say that is him.

This is the gift that ends up on the wall. The one he keeps walking past and looking at, years later.

How this works

Most of my buyers are first timers. You send a photo, I take it from there.

1

You order. Pick digital or canvas and how many people. You send one photo and tell me what you know about him. No character sheet, no rules to learn.

2

I paint. I message you myself, and you see a full preview before anything is final. I keep revising until he looks like him.

3

You give the gift. Digital downloads when you approve. Canvas ships when you approve.

Real portraits. Real homes.

Sent in by the people I painted for.

  • Rich color and crisp detail on artist grade cotton canvas.
  • Unlimited revisions until you swear it is him.
  • A full preview before anything prints.

Why the usual gifts quietly miss

It was never your effort. The gift aisle is built for the man other people see. None of it reaches the part of him that comes alive at the table.

  • Cologne and a nice watch dress up the man the world already meets.
  • Tools and grilling gear are things he uses, then forgets by July.
  • Another gadget gets a good weekend, then a quiet drawer.
  • A gift card tells him the calendar beat you, and he can read it.
  • Whiskey and a dinner out are lovely, and they are also last year.

A portrait of his character is the only thing here that speaks to him instead of a role he plays. It says I see the part of you that nobody else does. That is why it lands when the cologne never did, and why it stays on the wall long after the dinner is forgotten.

A finished character portrait painted from a photo

One thing I have learned across a thousand of these. The gift he remembers is almost never the priciest one. It is the one that proves you were paying attention. This year you get to be the one who did.

Things people ask before they order

Will it actually look like him?

Yes. The first preview lands about 2 to 3 weeks after your slot is secured, and I keep painting until it looks like him. I work from the photo and the details only you'd notice. The shape of his beard. The way he tilts his head when he laughs. The small things.

If the first concept doesn't feel right at all, you get your money back. You're not stuck with something that doesn't feel like him.

How do I get started?

  1. Click Order Now. Pick digital or canvas and how many people. Checkout takes one minute.
  2. I email you within 24 hours. I ask for photos and a few personality details. Brave? Mischievous? Quiet but secretly fierce? The more specific, the better.
  3. First preview in 2 to 3 weeks. I email it to you. We keep adjusting until it feels exactly like him. Unlimited revisions.
  4. You approve. If you ordered digital, you get high resolution files to download. If you ordered canvas, you get the digital files first and the canvas ships when it's ready.

If the first preview doesn't capture him, the Heroic Money Back Guarantee covers a full refund within 3 days. No awkwardness.

I don't have a good photo of him.

You probably do. A clear-ish shot of his face is enough. A wedding photo, a vacation pic, even an older one. If you're not sure, text it to me and I'll tell you straight away if I can work with it.

I don't need studio quality. I need to see his face, the angles, the expression that's his.

Do you offer full body portraits?

The standard portrait is half body. That's what works for solo characters and for groups. It frames his face and lets the details of his character carry the painting.

If you have a specific look in mind (full body, action pose, anything custom), tell me when I email you after checkout. I'll let you know what's possible before I start.

What is the Heroic Money‑Back Guarantee?

After I deliver your polished concept (in around 2 weeks), you will have 3 days to decide if the art feels right. If not, just email me, I'll refund you the entirety of your base commission price.

Once I start revisions, the guarantee ends. Simple, risk‑free, and there so you can commission with confidence. (See the full Refund Policy for the fine print.)

I truly believe everyone deserves to experience what it feels like to commission art. This guarantee is just my way of making sure you feel safe jumping in.

I don't know his class or character well enough.

You don't need to. A name and a photo is enough. Even a guess at his class works. After you order, I email you and walk you through everything I need to know. You can also ask him casually next time he gets going about it, or text one of his game friends.

If you only know his name, that's already enough.

What is your process for multiple characters in a portrait?

For group portraits featuring multiple characters, I follow a comprehensive approach that ensures each character gets the individual attention they deserve.

My process begins with creating each character individually. Once every character is complete and approved, each member receives their own high-quality individual portrait to keep.

I then combine all characters into a single, cohesive group composition set against a custom-designed background that enhances your collective story.

As a bonus, orders featuring three or more characters automatically include a complimentary custom background at no additional cost. I'll handle all the details when we reach that stage, no need to worry about tracking requirements on your end.
