Terms of Sevices

GENERAL TERMS

All drawings may or will include a subtle sign that you may not remove.
Prices are subject to change based on demand.
I have the right to reject any order that I do not feel comfortable drawing for any reason.

PREFERENCES

There are a few things that are instant nos: full NSFW, heavy urban/city backgrounds, and anything implicitly or explicitly offensive/hateful.
But if you would like anything outside of those, then don't hesitate to send an inquiry! However, I reserve the right to reject any commission request without the need to provide a reason.
The more reference pictures the better. It is strongly preferred if you have also visual character reference sheets.

PAYMENTS

The currency accepted is either USD or Philippine Peso and can be paid through PayPal and Gcash. I will send an invoice to the email you've provided.
Commissions can be paid either 100% upfront or split 50% after sketch approval and 50% before I send the finished drawing.
Don't send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot and requested you to send me the payment.

REFUNDS

Refunds can be requested at any time; however full refunds are only issued before the commission has been started.
If progress has already been made prior to cancellation, there will be strictly no refunds.

REVISIONS

You get 3 rounds of changes on the commissioned piece included in the price.
A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.
If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.
If your reference is unclear to start with changes will come at an extra charge.

PROCESS

I will be providing a sketch WIP for approval prior to starting. Sketches may have some colour to indicate overall tone and values. Commissioners are encouraged to suggest changes they want made at this stage.
Once the sketch has been approved, it will normally take me about a week to a month to complete the whole drawing, depending on factors such as health, school, the complexity of the commissioned piece, other work and con seasons.
If I have any questions regarding the commission, I will message the commissioner to clarify. Please answer the questions as soon as you can to prevent delays in the process.
If I don’t receive an answer in a timely fashion, I will proceed with the piece.
Commissioner may request additional WIPs at any stage throughout the creation process with a subtle watermark
The amount of reviews depends on the complexity of the work.
If anything comes up that will slow the progress of the initially estimated delivery time I will let you know asap. Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image along with a web-friendly size with png/jpeg format to you email. Note that there is no physical product.
