Important notes
I am an adult artist and draw only for adults. Contacting me is automatically confirming you as one.
I do not draw real living or ever lived people, regardless of the fact they may consent to the use of their appearance.
I also do not draw real living or ever lived animals (pets).
All characters that I draw must be fictional.
Photos can only be used as references.
Process of work
We start with discussing all the details of the commission, you show me references, wishes and answer some of my questions, as well as I answer yours. We set a price. After payment, I write you in my queue list and start to work when comes your turn.
Here is a list of things you receive:
The first sketch - a simple concept to see the idea on canvas with main focus on pose and angle.
The second sketch - a shaped drawing with right propotions, ready to be lined. This is the stage where all changes on character design and poses are done.
Lineart - a final stage of shaping the art, allowed only minor changes.
Base coloring - filling lineart with colors. Here I prefer to include markings, ornaments and other small details, as well as adding background.
Rendering and shading - a final stage where added lights, shadows and highlights.
Some of those points can be skipped in specific cases (example: you joined YCH).
Image rights
You become the owner of the art. You get all non-commercial rights to use and share, print art (without the purpose of sale).
I retain copyright and may use the art as an example in my portfolio, indicating you as the owner, with a link to your profile (optional).
Deadline
Deadline may be messy due to the ongoing war in my country, since I am in the frontline zone. If anything happens that causes me to postpone work for a long time, I will inform you. You can also keep an eye on my Blue Sky account as I tend to post there information when something happens. I will continue to work as soon as I have the opportunity.
It might take from a few days to a few months to finish an art, depending on how complex it is and depending on a tier. Rendered arts and arts with backgrounds always take longer to finish.
Payment
I accept payments through "PayPal", but for now I am unable to send invoices. Also you have to make sure you can send payment to Ukrainian account, as some countries can't do that for political reasons.
I prefer 100% prepayment, but can work with split payment or full payment-after the first sketch, unless its an emergency opening.
You can also support me on Patreon or donate on service Ko-fi, I will be much grateful :D
