ARTWORK TERMS OF SERVICE
REPOSTING ─ Showing commissions to the public
You may NOT claim any of my artwork as your own artwork. This includes commissions, gift art, personal art, and fanart.
Commissioned artwork from me may be used in anything deemed as personal use only! This includes things like printing, icons, signatures, wallpapers, etc. BUT I do not condone making money off my work.
Commissioned artwork can be reposted with proper credit.
On this note, I do prefer you share my original post, but if I am not on that website please feel open to post your commission with credit.
Do not publish my sketches of commissions to public social media; you may ONLY share these to select people; ei. friends, involved party of the commission, etc.
Do not repost artwork to any social media, other art sites, or on discord if you did not commission it from me personally; ie. fanart, personal art, etc.
If it was not commissioned or gifted to you by me, you DO NOT have any rights to that artwork, this includes Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs).
EDITING ─ Making personal changes to your commission
Colour-shifting is allowed if the original is also displayed.
Drawing on my artwork is NOT allowed; this includes adding items, changing parts of my drawing to suit the edit you want, or drawing an outfit on top of my artwork.
If you need to do this, you MUST ask direct permission from me, post the original work (as a full thumbnail is fine,) and credit me for the base work.
This may only be done to commissioned pieces! You do not have rights to art you did not commission from me or get as a gift.
Editing a commission does NOT make it your own artwork.
TIMELINE AND SCHEDULE ─ Time it takes me to finish work
Commissioners MUST give me a maximum one months time to finish one piece of artwork if I do not state a timeline and do not contact you if there is issues with finishing in that time.
I will not rush commissions and will avoid work I cannot complete in a timeline that does not work with me.
If you want something done within a certain timeline, you MUST tell me upfront and I must explicitly accept it.
I always go in order of my work list which is now updated constantly and viewable here, so please wait your turn or message me if you are impatient.
Please note I do a lot of personal work and I do not forget about commissions or owed work.
If you are still scared about the status of a commission, please note me first; I am happy to talk about any concerns you might have but its very likely I would have messaged you already if it is late!
Finally, please remember I am a human behind this screen first and foremost! If something unexpected comes up that halts a commissions timeline, I WILL contact you immediately.
CONTACT ─ It takes two to tango
Please make sure I can contact you easily and efficiently and I will happily do the same!
I can promise to respond to a direct message on Twitter or Tumblr in under 48 hours and I expect the same treatment unless we have discussed things that get in the way of that.
I am willing to give my Discord as well if that is easier, but I prefer DMs for archiving.
For any commission, I will always send a progress shot of the sketch to be approved by you; it is here you can ask for any changes you might need - within reason.
Appropriate edits in the sketch stage are details I confused, placements of limbs, reminders of objects I missed, wrong sizes, etc.
Inappropriate edits in the sketch stage are telling me me how to draw something I got wrong, saying something is great then telling me it's wrong later, complete redraw of the image, or being rude.
After a sketch has been explicitly approved, edits in the lining and colouring stage are more difficult.
Minor edits may cost additional funds depending on how much manipulation I must do to the image.
Large edits WILL cost additional funds unless I personally made a big mistake with the commission from a misunderstanding.
PAYMENT ─ Preferred method of payments
I ONLY accept PayPal USD for payments; I will request your email and send you an invoice.
If an invoice is not paid within 24 hours and you have not given me a valid reason for not paying it, I will forfeit your commission.
If this situation happens twice and both reasons are not valid, I will ban you from buying my artwork - no exceptions.
For my own security, I will not start a commission until the invoice has been paid completely. If there is a time my work ever goes above $200 USD, you may request we do a half and half payments; half given upfront and half given after the commission has been delivered.
I do not do payment plans or vouchers.
Payment is required in full upfront in USD (NO Cryptocurrencies) through PayPal only.
GIFTS ─ Free artwork or personal artwork I've done
To clarify, gift art includes artwork I have done for a personal character and have traded off, artwork I have made for free, or requests. If you have not paid money for my work directly, it is technically gift art.
Any gift art that is from me has NO monetary value whatsoever.
Even gift art MUST abide by any rules listed on this page!
COMMERCIAL USE ─ Using my artwork in media that will be for your personal profit
I do not know how to price my artwork in this fashion so it is not allowed.
Do NOT use any of my artwork for ANY monetary gain.
In this situation, only crediting me is not acceptable. If you plan to make money by using some of my artwork without my explicit permission and full understanding, I will immediately ban and blacklist you - no exceptions.
Any excuses like 'giving me exposure', saying I gave you permission but have no written proof, or saying you were going to give me a cut of the product later on are all NOT acceptable.
You may not resell any commission received from me with a Non Fungible Token (NFT) or through any form of Cryptocurrency.
AGREED ON TERMS WHEN YOU PURCHASE MY ART ─ Applies to every piece I've ever drawn
Buying my artwork means you completely understand my rules and will abide by them. If you are uncomfortable with some of these rules, you may message me about questions or concerns.
By buying my artwork you abide to these rules and understand that I am allowed to edit, add or remove rules to my wishes. I also understand I cannot change these rules to hurt a commissioner or make them personally uncomfortable.
I will never resell/repurpose your commission with Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs).
You may not resell any commission received from me with a Non Fungible Token (NFT) or through any form of Cryptocurrency.
If any of these rules are broken or broken multiple times, I am allowed to ban/blacklist you from buying my artwork.
