There are exceptions regarding the nudity portion for reference sheets or pin-ups. If you’re not sure we can discuss privately in e-mail.
I got the speed the capacity of a turtle when it comes to replying to messages. Please, try to be patient, I do my best to respond at my earliest convenience.
You are allowed to use your commissioned piece for personal use only.
Please always credit or provide a link back to my work if you decide to post your commission.
I reserve the right to decline a commission for any reason.
I will not approve random DM’s for a commission slot. (Unless otherwise noted) I will make it clear that you need to fill up a form linked from my Twitter posts or public announcement posts to initially have me approve your commission request.
You MUST have more than one visual reference. 3 or more is preferable. Please make sure you have these prepared prior to filling out a commission form. Be sure to include updated photos of accessories or clothing as well. Keep in mind pricing may vary depending on the complexity.
I'm comfortable doing SFW or NSFW work, but keep in mind I'm a little picky on the subject matter, lol. If you're not sure about certain subjects, you're welcome to e-mail me or DM me on my Twitter account.
If this is your first time commissioning. I recommend you to browse through my other public galleries (Furaffinity, Instagram, and Twitter to get a better understanding of my style and subject matter I like working with. There will be a few examples on this site as well.
General turnaround time can vary in several days; 3 weeks, or to a whole month depending on the type of commission. However, this can vary depending on the complexity of the commission; or timed delays due to approval exchanges between my clients. This also applies to circumstances and events that can happen outside of my control. (medical appointments, prior engagements, emergencies, etc.) For instance, something simple like a “flat colored icon," can take a day or a few hours to complete. A painted detailed icon however, can take up about a day or two to complete, depending on the intricacy or complexity of the commission.
Please inform me ahead of time if you need your commission done at a specific time frame. This especially applies if you filled the form for a “badge commission” for a con. The earlier I know, the better I can accommodate you as much as I can. In this case, the commissioner requesting a con badge will have priority, but this is only if I've been informed ahead of time before approving the proposal. This information should be added to your "additional comments" field under the BADGE section of the form.
During the rough sketch phase, I will work closely with you by providing screenshots of your commission WIP. I will make necessary minor revisions as soon as the client approves of the sketch to go on to the inking stage. These WIPs will be available to you on your TRELLO card. (Details will be explained with a following e-mail once you fill up your form)
On the coloring stage of your commission, I will allow 4 minor revisions and about 2 major revisions immediately. An example of a minor revision can include adjustments such as: changing colors, adding a value of a color or using a different shade of color. A major revision is defined by the need to re-color a majority, or re-drawing a certain physique, if not the entire character or other element.
Commissioners may distribute the work unaltered. Re-sizing is also appropriate for non-commercial applications such as posting to a personal gallery, blog or a forum. Cropping the illustration for use as your personal online avatar or user pic is fine.
I retain the copyright to my works. This also includes illustrative works I have done of your character(s), logos, banners or any graphic design of significance. This also means that I may post or distribute commissioned work online, and make digital or hard copies for archival purposes, or self-promotion.
Upon acceptance of completed digital works. You will be sent a high-quality version of your commission applicable for printing(nonwatermarked). Usually at about 300dpi or more for the print resolution.
ABSOLUTELY NO NFTS/AI. Humans and creatures only please.
HARASSMENT POLICY
Any frequent harassment, unsolicited inquiries regarding commission progress and/or unrelated topics towards me and/or any related parties is not acceptable. I will cancel your commission and a refund will be issued.
Please do not spam my Twitter DMs, and emails asking for frequent updates. I will keep in contact with you through your Trello card or your preferred form of communication.
Any frequent continuation of harassment or negative threats, you will be denied commissioning me in the future and I will consider blocking the client throughout my social media. No excuses.
A "threat" is defined as a statement of negative intent(such as, but not limited to: legal action, negative blog entries and death threats) that is made towards the artist and/or any related parties. Extended issues will be dealt with through the privacy of e-mail or the client’s preference of communication.
If legal action is threatened against myself, all work will stop and any option to cancel a commission and be entitled to a pro-rated refund will not be available depending on the following situations:
The business agreement is absolved. (Commission canceled as well as any legal action).
Legal action has been completed or canceled. The results of legal action dictate actions taken by myself.
PAYMENT
I currently only accept Square, Stripe or Paypal.
All payment transactions will be in USD(United States Dollars).
I do offer "paying in increments" plan. This is usually for much bigger and complex commissions.
You will be sent a invoice through your provided Paypal/Square e-mail to proceed with the payment transaction.
Once you secure a commission slot, you will have up to 7 days to secure your payment transaction. If the commissioner still hasn't paid within that period, I will cancel the commission slot and give the vacancy to another commissioner.
There is a possibility of having to charge extra aside from the base listed price. For instance, extra characters, backgrounds, extra minor changes, etc. You will be notified if this is the case.
For more complex commissions, I will ask 50% upfront of the price. At this stage of the commission, I will work with you closely once the rough sketch and line art stage has been approved. From there, on I will ask for the remaining 50% of the payment to proceed to the coloring and finishing touches stage.
If you would like to add an extra character, there will be an additional 50% charge to the base pricing of your commission. In addition a 40% additional charge for backgrounds and backdrops. This will mainly apply to badges, fully colored headshots, bust shots, full-bodied portraits and complicated illustrations only.
REFUND POLICY
REFUNDS will only be accepted if the client decides to cancel their commission or if they are unsatisfied with the work-in-progress, delayed turnaround with the work, and overall communication service. This includes, less than 50% of the work completed. (rough WIPS, lifework, unfinished colored stages, etc.) Any progress over 50% finished will only receive half of the refund, unless special circumstances can be addressed. It is in the interest of the client to notify me ahead of time to ensure proper correspondence with accommodating time period.
Regarding completed work, refunds of any completed work(100%) will not be issued, unless special circumstances are specified and presented.
