BEFORE YOU COMMISSION ME:

• Cash or Card payments must be made on-site, before the end of the convention. Please make sure to come by for payment, or the commission will be canceled.
• In the case of a PayPal payment, do NOT send ANY payment before your request is approved and an invoice is issued. Any payment received outside of the invoice will be taken as a donation.
• An invoice will be sent when I get to your turn in my queue, or after the initial rough sketch has been approved, depending on the commission type.
• Do NOT complain about my prices.
• Do not try bargaining.
• Do not commission if you’re not sure you have the money to pay for it.
• If you can not pay right away (for a commission that I will be taking home) but will have the money available within one month of the request, I can put the commission on hold, but I will need to know beforehand. If you haven’t notified me and do not have the funds when I send the invoice, the commission request will be cancelled.
• If I say no, do not insist.
• I will not copy other artists’ styles.  If you want something in their style, ask them.
• I will not change my art style to the way I used to draw in the past (i.e: thicker/bolder lines). I’ve changed my art over time and would rather not go back to something I’m no longer happy with.
• PLEASE try and keep the commission request impersonal. I am an artist, not a confidant. If details aren’t required for the commission, it’s not needed to mention them!
• If you want to discuss commissions, please do so IN PERSON OR THROUGH EMAILS ONLY. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME THROUGH ANY OTHER MEANS FOR COMMISSION-RELATED MATTERS.

WHEN FILLING THE FORM:

• Try to mention the species of your character if the reference doesn’t mention it.
• Too many references are better than not enough.
• If anything should be done differently from what is provided as reference (i.e: markings, haircut, accessories, etc…) they should be mentioned in the initial request.
• Forgotten details might come with a fee if work has already been done.
• Please try and put all of your thoughts into the form so you can reduce the probability of having to ask for changes.

COMMUNICATION SPECIFICS:

• I will be communicating in person or through emails only. No IMSs (i.e: Discord, Telegram, etc…). Please don’t forget to check your inbox once in a while.
• Feel free to poke me if I don’t reply within a few hours! 
• Please don’t be shy about asking for updates; the worst that can happen is that I have none.
• Please try and keep it to one thread if possible! If you forgot something, copy and paste your other reply so one email contains all the information.

REFUNDS:

• In the case of an already started commission, only a partial refund will be made, depending on when the refund is requested. In other words, if work has been done, I will keep the amount associated with the amount of work done.
• In the case of a Wing-It, a refund can be made if I haven’t started yet, but it will not cover the PayPal fees.
• No refund shall be issued on a completed commission.

CHANGES AND REVISIONS:

• Please note that if no reply is made within a week (7 days) of my sending an update, the step/finished piece will count as being approved and will no longer be available for changes and revisions.
• Rough Sketch: Full changes of pose(s) and/or character(s) are allowed at the rough sketch stage, as long as they’re caused by my own mistake (i.e: misread a request and got the pose wrong, switched the poses of characters in a scene with multiple characters). Wanting a new pose because you’ve changed your mind will be an extra fee based on the complexity/number of characters/etc… Medium changes are free of charge. Minor changes are free of charge.
• Lineart/Clean Sketch: Minor changes are allowed at the lineart or clean sketch stage. Medium changes are free of charge, to an extent. If too many changes are requested, there will be a fee based on the time spent. If a full change of pose is requested, there will be an extra fee based on the complexity/number of characters/etc…
• Completed Commission: Once the piece is completed, the only allowed changes are based on my own mistakes (i.e.: markings in wrong places or missing, wrong colour used on clothes, etc…)
• On Wing-It type commissions, the only changes allowed are based on my own mistakes (i.e.: markings in wrong places or missing, wrong colour used on clothes, etc…)
• On Wing-It type commissions requiring character design: I will not change the design unless it is my own mistake. If something wasn’t specified, I will not change it. It is not recommended to order a Wing-It commission for a character without a reference sheet.
• Specific to commissions requiring character design: Please try and have a good idea of what you want or a list of a few ideas. When requesting changes, please try and mention EVERYTHING at once (i.e.: Shape and colour of markings, shape of eyes, body proportions, etc…) instead of making it multiple steps. Asking for different changes in multiple steps when it could be done in one reply might end up costing an extra fee.
• Examples of Minor Changes: Position of hand, expression, accessories, piece of clothing.
• Examples of Medium Changes: Entire outfit, position of both arms or legs, environment, if any.

ONCE THE COMMISSION IS DONE:

• I will provide the Full Resolution, as well as a Resized Version and a Watermarked Version.
• You are not allowed to claim the artwork as your own.
• You are not allowed to make any kind of profit from the commissioned drawing unless discussed beforehand. Commercial fees are on a case-by-case basis.
• Cropping (i.e. for an icon) is ok if credit is given.
• Colouring linearts is allowed, as long as no change to the lineart is done without me allowing it, and only if you’re the commissioner (or you allow someone else to colour it).
• If you want your commission(s) to be private, just ask me, and you’ll be the only one to get the file(s).
• Commissioning other artists to make (either by request or commission) derivative work should be discussed with me beforehand. I will most likely allow a one-off thing, but never mass-produced articles (i.e.: keychains) unless commercial fees are discussed.
• In the case of derivative work being made, credits to me will be MANDATORY.
• If you use your commission for the creation or promotion of NFTs, you will owe me a total sum of $10,000 USD or the rounded-up equivalent of triple the price of the sale if a sale is made and valued at more than $10,000 USD.
• The art you commission (Or any of my art at all) should NEVER be used for machine learning/AI art.

WHAT I WILL BE ALLOWED TO DO WITH THE ART UNLESS CLEARLY STATED THAT YOU DO NOT ALLOW ME TO:

• Unless marked as private, the High Resolution of your commission will be made available on Patreon. You are still free to share the High Resolution with people.
• Unless marked as such in the form, WIPs of your commission may be made available for Patreon supporters. If you do not want me to share WIPs with other people besides yourself, please check the box in your application.
