(last updated: 05/16/2022)
- Payment will be accepted through Paypal invoices, and all prices are in USD.
- All payments will be made in full before rendering will begin. Short payment plans are acceptable, but work will only begin once payment is completed. Waiting to pay is also acceptable, but it's the client's responsibility to remember payment. If the commission next in line isn't paid for, it will be skipped until payment is completed.
- If the client's commission hasn't been paid for and has been in the queue for 3 months, the slot may be forfeited.
General
- The client must present a clear visual reference of their character. Exceptions are custom character designs or reference sheet commissions.
- The client must present their desired pose, expression, or idea up front (if any).
- The artist will complete commissions in sequential order on the queue unless the previous client hasn't paid or responded. The artist may sometimes sketch multiple commissions at once. The date a commission is added can be found at the bottom of its Trello card.
- Deadlines are never provided. If the client feels the artist is taking too long, refer to "Refunds & Cancellations."
- The client understands that what they're receiving is a digital good and won't be shipped to them, unless the artist specifies otherwise in the Paypal invoice description.
- By purchasing commissioned artwork, the client must understand and agree to the artist's Terms of Service.
Revisions & WIPs
- Alterations to a commission may only be made during the sketching stage, besides edits to markings or colors. Preview sketches will always be sent to fix any possible errors before completion. Further progress images may be requested.
- Revisions that are made because of the artist's error are always free of charge. Major or frequent revisions made due to the client's error, mutual misunderstandings, unclear reference sheets, lack of communication/information, or art style preferences may include a surcharge of at least $5. The artist is not obligated to accept revisions that aren't due to the artist's error and has the right to reject them.
Refunds & Cancellations
- The Artist reserves the right to decline or discontinue a commission for any reason, such as the use of discriminatory or derogatory language, harassment, and disrespectful conduct. The following rules for refunds will still apply here.
- As long as the artwork hasn't been started, refunds can be issued in full for any commission type. (Do not force these through Paypal. Please politely message me about it)
- Refunds of 50% may be issued for commissions if the preview sketch is finished but not approved (unapproved sketches will not be reused by the artist). If the preview sketch has been approved and lining or coloring has begun, refunds will not be issued unless it's at the artist's discretion.
- Individuals who attempt Paypal charge-backs or forced refunds will be permanently blacklisted, and any completed artwork may be recycled (such as in form of a YCH), and the individual will no longer have permission to repost or use the artwork in any way.
Rights
- The artist will not sell prints or any other merchandise using a commissioned piece.
- The client MAY: repost commissioned work to their own website or gallery, use it as an icon, wallpaper or banner, giving proper credit to the artist (The watermark or signature showing do not count as proper credit; please @ me or give my username in the description). Prints for personal use or as gifts are also acceptable.
- The client MAY NOT: claim the artwork as their own creation, edit/refinish a completed drawing without permission, or use it commercially (for money profit).
- The client may purchase additional licensing for use in commercial projects.
