    Before Asking For A Commission

    What I Will and Will NOT Draw

    I reserve the right to refuse to do a commission if I am unable to do it properly, or if I am uncomfortable with the content. If you're not sure if I'd accept your idea, please talk to me!

    Commission Details:

    Please provide a short description and visual reference of your character. Include their general vibe, motivations, physical appearance (costume/props/fashion preferences) and pose. Colored references are PREFERRED but not NECESSARY. Please link an image gallery when submitting a request form.

    References help speed up the drawing process for me. If I have to create your character from scratch, I will charge it as a character design (see price page).

    Keep in mind that the prices are just for the characters themselves. Props might cost extra depending on complexity. (If it's a minor prop that doesn't take too much time to draw, it will be free)

    Once I've reviewed all the details and everything looks good, you can order your commission request of your choice.

    Commission Process

    After receiving your payment, I will give you a start date, sketch approval date and an estimated completion date (14 - 60 business days depending on complexity).

    Sketch approval dates are usually 2 - 3 days after giving you a start date.

    Revisions for the sketch approval are permitted as long as it does not exceed 3 minor revisions. Anything more than that will cost extra. Please keep in mind that the final completion date will be affected depending on the revisions that have been requested.

    I generally do not permit any more revisions once I start rendering the artwork. If you decide to have any more revisions after I start coloring, an additional 50% of the total cost of the commission needs to be paid for me to be able to do it.

    I will be sending the full resolution file via email or a link through Discord/Twitter on the estimated completion date. Both the printable version and the low resolution version will be sent.

    Turnaround Times

    Depending on my current commission queues, commission complexity and revisions, artwork completion can range from 2 weeks to 2 months for it to be completed from the start date. I try to send weekly updates to my clients to show them the progress of their commission requests. However, if you have a hard deadline, please do not hesitate to let me know Deadlines are reasonable but tight deadlines will incur additional charges.

    My schedule can be hectic, and it may take longer than stated to finish a commission. Please understand that I will be working on other projects between commissions. That being said, checking up the progress of your commission is fine, but please refrain from rushing. If you want to check progress, check out the queue.

    Payment Info, Payment Plan, and Refund/Cancellations:

    Payment

    Prices are in USD. Will only accept payment through Kofi or Paypal. Only send money through an invoice. After payment is received: I will start working on your commission Process updates and approvals will be sent depending on the commission type Tips are appreciated!

    Refunds/Cancellations

    There will be no refunds once your order has been placed.

    Revision

    Anything that needs to be fixed on "my mistake", any detail that was on or described in your reference(s) and I missed it, will always be fixed for free.

    Credits and Reposting

    Commission work is for non-profit, personal use ONLY. Unless stated otherwise (for private reasons), I have the right to publish the artwork and process recording to my portfolio and social media. Both parties can share commission pieces respectively throughout their social platforms. Do not claim it as your own. You must put credit. You are not allowed to add your own watermark to the artwork. If you post it, post the one that has my watermark on it. Please share social media handles, so I can credit when I post on social media.
