2. Payment is accepted through PayPal and in USD only.
3. NO refunds will be issued on completed pieces. All payments on completed works are final.
4. I DO NOT accept e-Checks, personal checks, money orders, or payment upon delivery.
Commission file size:
1. Digital scans of commissions will be scanned at 300dpi and a minimum pixel width of 3000 pixels. (height is dependent upon commission dimensions).
2. A 72dpi, RGB colorspace, 1000 pixel width version of the final scan will be emailed to you (the commissioner).

2. If changes need to be made due to me misreading the information those alterations will be made free of charge.
3. If Changes need to be made at the sketch stage due to insufficient or incorrect information from the commissioner fees may be applied.
Time Taken:
I work a full time art job so the time it takes for a commission to be done varies. My normal work week is 40-hours, but I usually work 45 to 50-hours per week. My full time job is my main means of income and therefore takes priority over any commission work.
Please allow anywhere from a week to multiple months for a commission to be completed. At any time you, the commissioner, may send me an email or note about the status of your commission. I encourage you (the commissioner) to do so any time you may have a question about your piece.
Returns & Refunds (If work is not started or uncompleted):
If at any time you feel that I am taking too long to finish your picture please contact me via email. Depending on the state of the picture (level of completeness) I am open to discuss a full refund of payment. If a refund is decided upon, all work on the artwork (commission) on my end will cease, and the picture may be offered as a YCH auction at a later date.
Payments made to me for a commission are placed into a separate savings account and not spent until you, the commissioner, have received your commission (artwork) in the mail. That means, I always have your money and will issue a refund as soon as the money transfers from that account to my PayPal, and then to you.
All canceled commissions will be subject to a 10% fee to cover the PayPal service fees I paid when you, the commissioner, originally ordered the commission. Refunds will be issued as "gift" on PayPay so you, the commissioner, don't incur an additional service fee from PayPal.
Returns & Refunds (If work is completed):
At no time will a refund be issued on works that have been completed.
Shipping of Artwork:
All artwork (commissions) will be shipped using the United States Post Office (USPS) and will have a tracking number. All artwork will also be insured via the USPS for no less than the amount that was paid for the artwork. Damage during shipping, loss of package during shipping, or any issues that arise during the shipping of artwork is the responsibility of the USPS and all grievances should be taken up with them.
I will help file a grievance with the USPS should a commission (artwork) become damaged, lost, or otherwise, by the USPS.
Things I Won't Draw:
~ Hyper messy
~ Adult rated cub art
~ NSFW art
~ Inflation
~ Vore
~ Anything overtly sexual in nature
~ Fan Art characters - Characters printed on clothing is okay; example: Pokemon pajamas. But not a Pokemon character in pajamas.
NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) and Blockchain Artwork:
I neither support, nor allow, my artwork to be used, sold, resold, or otherwise presented, as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) or any other Blockchain based artwork. Any artwork created by me and found to have been re-sold or re-posted as an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) or other Blockchain based artwork service/website/online use has not be posted by myself and will be reported as stolen artwork and stolen copyright infringement.
AI Powered Learning Tools & AI Generated Artwork:
I neither support, or allow, my artwork to be used in conjunction with AI powered learning, or AI created artwork and imaging. Any use of my artwork used in such manner will be reported as stolen artwork and stolen copyright infringement.
