Introduction:

By commissioning me, you are agreeing that you have read my Terms of Service (ToS) in full, understand, and accept the following information. Failure to read and understand my ToS after accepting to commission me does not exempt you from the following information.

I have the right to update my ToS without notice. You are responsible for making sure you are up to date on the following information. Check the date at the top to see if anything has been changed/updated since the last time you read it.

Please understand this is a Business Contract and to treat it as such (whether or not we're acquaintances/mutuals or friends). Emails need to be responded to promptly (preferably within 24 hours) so that I can continue working. Please do not assume I can set your commission aside temporarily to work on something else unless I specifically say that is a possibility. If something comes up on your end and you are unable to reply, please notify me in advance.

When you commission me, you are buying my time, experience, and the way I choose to do things (my judgement and personal art style preferences). This includes my choices that I think work best for the illustration. Please be absolutely sure you enjoy my art style before choosing to commission me. I will work with you to give you the best possibly image of what you want, but please understand and respect my personal input, experience, and judgement as well. Please look through my gallery and commission examples before commissioning me to insure you will be happy with the final results of your commission.

Payment Information:

I only accept Paypal in United States Dollars (USD).

When I am ready to start your commission, a down payment of at least half of the commission price on all orders [over] $150.00USD is required before any work will be started. All orders [under] $150.00USD are to be paid in full before any work will be started. Payment plans may be offered as an option for orders starting at $200.00USD and up.

Do not send your Payment before your commission has been confirmed. I will send you all payment instructions. Failure to follow my instructions will result in a refund.

Refunds and Cancellations:

Once progress of your commission has begun, if you decide you must cancel your order, you will receive a refund for the work I have not done on your commission. It is at my discretion to blacklist you from future business if I feel the cancellation was in poor taste based on how much time you give me in advance, to no notice at all, avoiding my emails/messages, or giving poor excuses as to why you have to cancel, etc.

I reserve the right to cancel a commission and issue a refund (for work that has not been done) based on rude and inappropriate behavior, poor communication, or other conditions that cause the commission experience to be uncomfortable or difficult.

Refunds are not available once I have begun the color stage of your commission.

Usage:

All commissions are for personal/private use only - You are paying for my services/time only. I the artist retain all copyright of the image (you retain your copyright to all elements within the illustration that you've created). You may make icons or personal prints, but not for your own profit which includes selling prints and/or merchandise of the commission. They are not to be used for commercial purposes, projects, or to be published unless discussed beforehand and given my written permission. If you wish to purchase the rights of the piece, please contact me for pricing.

You may make icons, personal prints, etc for your personal use, and post the Resized Web Watermarked Version that I provide for you of your completed commission where ever you'd like (with credit). - All WIPs (Work In Progress) images including: Concepts, Sketches, Line Art, Base Flats, etc. throughout the commission process that I send to you, along with the High Resolution Completed versions of your commission, are not to be posted, used, or shared online without my permission. If you are planning on using your commission as a reference for a different artist or individual to use as a guide, please notify me of this on your order form so that I can provide you with a larger watermarked version for these purposes.

Unless paid for, I reserve the rights to all concepts I design within the commission - anything that you did not create or include in your reference images. This includes outfits, hairstyles, accessories, and background objects. You may not use any design work I create specifically for your commission as references for your character(s)/outside of said commission without my written permission.

I retain the right to recycle any unused poses or ideas from your commission in my future projects. Unless a pose or concept is especially unique, it is possible that similar ideas may be used multiple times within other projects and commissions (such as generic pinup poses, erotica bedroom scenery, etc). I cannot give exclusive rights to any one individual for a very popular concept, pose, or scene. This would be similar to claiming all rights to "Summer Beach" Themed scenes, for example.

Unless requested otherwise (holiday, Birthday, or special occasion), I will almost always post up your commission in one (or all) of my online galleries at my discretion as I finish them. This may also include the process (creation) WIPs of your commission. If you want your commission kept private, I will do so for a fee and depending upon the circumstances.

References:

Always provide clear consistent visual character references whether it's your character or a character from a movie/game/book/etc. This includes all clothing, accessory, and background elements. I will not do the research for you. Consistent is defined as all of your references are not drastically different in design from one another (I will not do guess work or interpret how your character is supposed to be if things vary from reference to reference - if your refs differ from one another, please point out the parts you prefer). The more complex your character is, the harder it so for me to interpret how they are supposed to look from multiple angles. This is particularly important for Robotic characters, armor, or characters with large tattoos/designs wrapped around their body.

If you fail to provide proper, organized references, I have the right to decline. If you require I do specific research for you, and I accept, I may charge a small fee.

Turnaround/Time:

The time it takes to complete your commission is determined by my schedule, workload, communication, and complexity of your commission. The time may range between a week, up to a month, or more (for very complex expensive commissions). Each commission experience is unique and I offer an estimated turnaround time. You are free to inquire about the status of your commission via email (not through social media). I post the status of my current progress in my queue located here: [LINK].

I usually try to work on commissions in the order they were reserved and paid for, however please understand I am not always only working on your commission. I may alternate between slots as needed to keep projects fresh and not get burnt out, or dabble in my own personal projects in between working on your commission in my free time. I also do not work on art every single day, nor work all day long.

How quickly you (the commissioner) and I (the artist) communicate with one another is also a very important factor in how quickly I finish work for you. You may have already paid me, or be first in my slots, but if you take a long time to get back to my emails, than I will move on to the next person. You will not lose your slot.

If for any reason the commissioner becomes impatient and begins excessively contacting for updates in an unreasonable manner or asking about their commission outside of emails, I will not hesitate to cancel the commission and give a refund for whatever work has not been done. This only applies for extreme cases, but please understand that constant nagging is extremely stressful and only results in rushed artwork.

Revisions:

As I work with my clients and show WIPs (works in progress) throughout every stage of the commission for approval before moving on to the next stage (from concept, to sketch, to line art, to color stage), there are only 2 free revisions available (anything more will be an additional charge - up to 4 max).

Please make sure you know what you want when you commission me to limit the number of revisions required. We will discuss the details and adjust things as needed, but last minute changes and additions to your commission past the line art stage wont be tolerated and will be declined unless you wish to pay for these changes/adjustments. Once I begin the Line Art stage of your commission, I no longer include elements to your commission that were not previously discussed in the concept stage.

Introduction:

All commissions are Digital Art - illustrations created from the ground up on the computer using the art program Clip Studio Paint EX/PRO (Manga Studio) and a Wacom Intuos5 Touch Tablet.

All of the following prices are example Base/Starting Prices for you to get an idea of the price of your commission. They are per one character. Backgrounds not included unless stated. Please understand that each work is a unique piece of art and experience, and final prices may differ depending on your order specifications. Illustrations can vary between a single character, to an elaborate scene, and several options in between. Overly complicated subjects will take longer due to detailed rendering, research, and lots of adjustments, and therefore will cost more. Please contact me for a price quote.
