-Section 2-
Fitted Characters.
Will do:
-Pretty much most designs.
-Any gender.
-Most species. (Anthro and animals are not my strong point, but I can draw them.)
-NSFW (nude only)
-SFW.
-Homemade Fandom characters.
-Ask if something isn't listed.
Won’t do:
-Draw copyrighted characters and material that doesn't belong to the buyer. Eg. Ash Ketchum, Princess Leia's, etc.
-Anything that I don’t feel comfortable with drawing, or isn’t in my skills range. I will say if this happens.

Progress Steps when drawing any characters or clothing
Step 1:
I begin with a sketch using the information supplied.
Once something is sketched out it’s sent to the buyer for approval.
Any adjustments can be made to the sketch at this stage.
Once approved I’ll begin step 2.
Step 2:
Sketch will be lined, and step 3 begun.
Step 3:
Flat colours will be added, and sent to the buyer for approval. Once approved I will begin step 4.
Step 4:
The design will be finished and a copy forwarded to the buyer for one last approval. Once approved the un-watermarked version is sent to the buyer.
(Please make sure you’re happy with the sketch, lines, and colours before I begin step 4.
Any sudden major changes wishing to be done during or after step 4 will come at an extra cost.)
(Any rejected sketches or rejected parts of a sketch remain under my ownership and can be used by me as I please- unless they were a particular detail provided by the buyer like crests, logos, characters, etc- which remain under the buyer’s ownership. Effort will be made to insure that any rejected details similar to the buyer's final design will be altered as to not look the same.)
______________________________________________________________________
Timeframe of artwork being completed
Upon starting a commission:
-Please allow up to 2-3 weeks before any sketches are sent for review.
-Please allow up to 8-12 weeks before a commission is finished.
Commission are done around real life, other commitments, and the making of adoptable designs.
If any unforeseen circumstances happen then I have the right to postponed or cancel commissions.

-Section 3-
CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS
Cancellations
A buyer may cancel the purchase only before the payment has been sent.
Refunds
I don’t offer refunds, so please make sure the adopt is wanted before any payment is sent.
If a buyer has cancelled up to three purchases, then I will no longer deal with them.
If I am forced to cancelled up to three purchases with a buyer due to lack of payment, lack of communication, or any other reasons, then I will no longer deal with them.
Rules Regarding Chargeback
If a chargeback is issued against me by a buyer then I will NOT deal with that person again, and any designs that the chargeback amount was associated with will be forfeited by the buyer and will return back into my ownership to do with as I please, regardless of who issued the chargeback.
I have the right to cancel any and all purchases for whatever reason that may arise.

Adopt Rules
Rules list on each post also apply.
Current owner can change any details, colours, species, gender, etc. they wish.
I must be credited at least once when the adopt is drawn. More then once is preferred but not required.
All adopts are for non-commercial use only.
Adopts belongs to the buyer- unless buyer resells, trades, gifts, or returns the design.
I retain all rights to the artwork that I have drawn.
Reposting of my artwork is permitted, but only with full credit.
Unwanted adopt Rules
If a buyer no longer wants an adopt they’ve purchased, they’re free to:
Resell it -for no more then what was paid. Unless extra art has been added.
(Feel free to ask me for price paid as I keep records)
Trade it
Gift it
Ask me if I want it back (Some adopts I’m fond of and may be interested in buying back.)
If an adopt is sold, traded, or gifted to a new owner, please tell me who it was given too, so I can keep my records up to date.

-Section 4-
Notes and Replies and General conversations.
Please allow up to a week for me to reply.
If I send a note asking a question, then I’d appreciate a reply.
If a reply is not gotten after two weeks then the commission will be put on hold.
If a reply is not gotten after four weeks the order will be cancelled. A refund will be issued for the cancelled order, but will be subjected to a non-refundable fee.
Please don’t give me the silent treatment. I’d prefer a reply, positive or negative rather then none at all. If a person can no longer pay, are no longer interested, or just don't know what to say, then just tell me- I would prefer to be told then not have a reply at all.
