Terms of Service

Before you order:

  • Take time to look through the gallery (make sure you are requesting something that is suitable for my art style + within my skillset)

  • Understand that your commission may be denied if I feel I may be unable to fulfill your expectations

  • Be sure you have the funds to commission (calculate your own estimate for what you want)

  • If you plan to use the art Commercially, expect to pay double the base prices

  • Feel free to negotiate/request different art styles (i.e. if you would like some Twitch emotes or a PNG tuber or something of the like, we can discuss pricing/etc) via Discord DM

  • Expect to wait up to 2 months for your artwork to be complete once the sketching phase begins (if you require the art sooner, an additional rush fee may be taken)

  • Commissions will be done in the order accepted: make sure that your order form is accurate and provides everything I need to accept your commission for a smoother process

  • Please do not include backstories/unneeded flavour text for your characters (simpler is better: highlight the most important features of your character(s) so I know what to bring attention to in the piece)

  • Original designs (creating the character from scratch with no reference sheet/preexisting design) will cost a significant amount more (must be discussed via DM or e-mail)

Workflow:

  • Optional: Discuss via Discord DM

  • Fill out the order form fully with as many references as you find fit

  • If the commission is accepted, pay HALF in advance - all payments are final

  • At least two rough sketches will be provided after payment is received for you to choose from

  • Changes may be requested at this time (I may also request additional refs for specifics I may be struggling with)

  • A rough compositional/lighting concept of the selected sketch will be provided for the final check for simple changes

  • Rendering may or may not be done on stream typically on Tuesdays or Wednesdays

  • One last review for minor tweaks before the second half of the payment

  • Full sized artwork will be sent as a PNG (if you ordered for commercial use, PSD/Clip file may be provided)

Disclaimer:

  • Commissioner must be okay with the art being streamed on Twitch and for the contents to be shared on my socials (the rights to the art that I have created belong to me)

  • Additional fees will be required if you request that the art not be streamed on Twitch

  • Be sure it is within your budget - Do the math and make an estimate of how much you are willing to spend on the piece (do NOT wait for my invoice and then back down from commissioning - you must fully commit). NO refunds will given under any circumstances

  • NON-COMMERCIAL use only - if you are caught selling my work, you will be severely punished - If you require commercial use, prices will be doubled (unless exclusive rights have been purchased, I retain the right to use my art how I please, including commercially <- though unlikely)

  • You may NOT use the commissioned artwork for any cryptocurrency usage or for any NFT's

  • You (the commissioner) retain the rights to the intellectual property (IP)

  • You may upload the commissioned artwork on any website and social channels with a credit to me (the artist)

  • I will only be accepting 1-2 commissions per month at this time, so please be understanding if I am unable to take on your offer

  • I reserve the right to refuse a commission based on personal preference, regardless of your monetary offer (i.e. mecha, vehicles, buildings, furries, NSFW, etc will likely be turned down) - I do not do Lineart Commissions (whether I use lineart is entirely up to me)

  • Leave me some artistic license with the character's design and composition of the piece: you are requesting art from me hopefully because you like my art and I have particular preferred methods to make it look the way it does - I will do what I can to preserve likeness and ensure that it is true to your character

Thanks for your interest~!!
