TERMS OF SERVICE
Displayed base prices are subject to change according to the complexity, difficulty, size and medium of each individual piece.
Clear and concise visual references of a commission idea must be provided by the Client. After which a preliminary quote will be provided by the Artist. I will NOT accept written descriptions, as they are cause for too much trouble and fuss. Sorry.
I will also NOT ACCEPT Any commission requests that contain Fanart characters. [Pokemon, Digimon, etc etc..]
Payments that are $100 and under must be paid up front in full before preliminary work begins. Payment plans are available for commissions above $100.
If the artwork is finished before final payments are made, the Client will not receive the original, un-watermarked digital image of the commission until final payments are made.
Clients will have the opportunity to direct alterations of their commission in the thumbnail sketch stage. I will present a MAXIMUM of 2 sketches from which a client may choose before I refine the drawing. No more than Three revisions will be made unless the Client wishes to pay for extra for further sketch samples.
Critique and redline corrections for commissions above $80 are welcome to ensure the best result. Commissions under said price are considered as small works, and thus time revising sketches is not factored into the price.
The Artist reserves the right to reject critique and redline pertaining to artistic skill or style preference (i.e. anatomy, coloring style, etc.) if said critique reduces the artistic quality of the piece.
If the Client wishes to cancel their commission during the sketch stage they will be refunded 50% of what they paid.
If the Client wishes to cancel their commission during or after the coloring stage they will not be issued a refund.
The Artist will not discuss a commission with a client via public forum. However, the use of Notes and Instant messengers is allowed to discuss Commissions. Once a decision has been solidified, the Client will be requested to send either a Note or an E-Mail involving the details of said commission.
The Artist reserves the right to issue a refund and cancel a commission due to poor communication, rude or inappropriate behavior, inability to communicate in effective English.
The Artist ensures the Client will receive email updates on commission when necessary. Clients are encouraged to check in when they feel it's necessary for updates, assurance or reminders. Public updates will also be made when deemed Necessary.
The artist will not handle depiction of illegal activities (Eg; underage/beastiality etc.] Racial and hateful images. Fetishes, artistic nudity, violence, gore, and humorously offensive work will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The Artist reserves the right to reject any commission for any reason.
The Artist retains the right to display all commissioned work on any personal website, gallery, or journal. If the commissioned work is a time-sensitive gift the Artist may delay public showcase at the request of the Client.
The Artist retains ALL the rights to the commissioned artwork, including the right to make prints and merchandise. Image rights can be negotiated for an added fee.
The Client retains all rights to their respective characters. This does not allow them rights to the commissioned image (see above 2 paragraphs).
The Client may not profit from the artwork beyond the resale of a physical original painting or drawing (traditional media, not digital). This includes the sale of the digital files, or rights to the image.
The Client may create up to three prints for personal use (display in their home or as gifts). Client may also resize or crop the artwork to create icons, wallpapers, or other graphics to be used in non-commercial digital format, but the Client cannot alter the artwork itself. The Client may also upload the artwork to their personal website or gallery, but credit is required, and it must not be any high resolution or unwatermarked version of the artwork.
The Artist may recycle sketches and preparatory works that were rejected by the Commissioner for other commissions or personal works.

As of September 2017, I have begun recording work and making progression timelapse videos and May or May NOT post them to youtube. [Tasteful pieces only]
If for any reason you are unhappy with anything regarding work or wait times, please CONTACT ME before claiming against me via Paypal. There are generally reasons for my wait times and I post about them frequently. Most common reason is Family.
Clients must read, understand and agree to all the above terms before entering into an agreement with me. By sending payment, the Client agrees to the above terms.
Thanks!
Just let me know if you have questions!
(It says "Up to Date!. [August 3rd, 2012]")
And yes, indeed! Can I send you a note? Or email? Is this queue here (link) up do date as well?
In general I was just wondering if I could get something like a lineart (or coloured sketch) from you? :>
My 'queue' is just a list of work that needs to be finished, and in no way a show of who is first, next or last to be done. I do my work by motivation. Due to ADHD, motivation is a huge part of me giving a better product. I'm now on meds for it, but motivation is still key. But I'm working on having a faster turnover. C:
Let me know!
Sorry that I'm adding another comment here, but I sent you an email two days ago and didn't hear something from you since then <3
I do Digital both on and off stream.
