Disclaimer

I open commissions through journal/submission only. Or other social media.

You may inquire about a commission anytime - note me! Email me!

I withhold the right to decline anyone at anytime for any reason.

I will provide a form to you be filled out and sent to me with the appropriate information for your commission request.

Filled forms should be kept as brief and concise as possible as tedious and lengthy descriptions are overwhelming, confusing, and unwelcome.

If I accept your commission request, I will send you an invoice for your commission using Paypal.

You must pay in full asap by the due date before I can begin work on your commission.

Your commission is then added to my queue.

Please note that all commissions are subject to full artistic freedom and you will not see a preview unless requested in advance. Otherwise, I may send you a WIP, but it is not subject to approval.

Please specify if you would like your commission to remain private and un-posted. (See Use of Artwork section for more info.)

Estimated time for commission completion depends on my current queue or if I have a large project going on at the time.

If my queue is empty, then it is generally 1-7 days unless otherwise discussed.

If my queue is full or I have a project going on at the same time, I can give you a guess if you ask me.

In any case, if there are any delays, I will notify you.

Images / References are required to complete your commission!

I do accept written descriptions of characters as reference!

General or Mature (for nudity) references or images are appropriate.

No exceptions! Failure to comply will result in declining your commission immediately and possibly blocking you.

I look forward to working with you!

PAYMENT

Commissions must be paid 100% upfront.

I only accept payment through PAYPAL.

I only accept USD (United States Dollars)

All discounts, sales, and fees are reflected on the invoices I send out.

Payment is expected within 24 hours, unless otherwise discussed.

I do NOT accept e-checks, or mailed cash, so sorry!

Never send payment without my approval, because if you do, I will consider it a tip or donation and may not refund you.

All sales are final once payment has been received.

Tips and Donations are appreciated, but not necessary.

Price

Please keep in mind that my prices can change at any time.

Be aware that only the artist can worth their art and that arguing my pricing will get you nowhere but my blacklist.

I may also charge more for your commission if you have an overly complex character, or want any extras not normally included in a commission.

HOW I WORK & TURN AROUND TIME

Need to work on my turnaround time (right now I can’t saying’ about this. So give me a time to work on this part to look proper to have a turn around time and How I work in 5 days plus two day off)

REFUNDS/ CANCELLATIONS

Remember that all sales are final once payment has been received.

I may however, refund you if I am unable to complete your commission for any reason.

If you are being a finicky or picky customer and continually ask me to change things about

your commission, or are continually uncooperative, I may give you a partial refund and may

no longer wish to work with you. You may NOT request a refund after your commission has been started, unless agreed upon by ME.

WIPS & Revisions

It is your responsibility to tell me everything I need to know in order to complete your commission upon your commissioning me.

I will of course ask questions if I feel I need more information, but know that this is your responsibility to inform me accordingly.

If you failed to inform me of a mistake or change to your commission before or during the optional sketch approval, it is your fault and I am not responsible for fixing it.

Keep in mind that a sketch preview is not required unless you ask for it in advance.

You must pay me for any changes, but I may not always be willing to accept them. This includes custom designs and adopts!

Revision costs are dependent on the amount of work it will take to complete.

You are not allowed to edit my artwork. (See Use of Artwork section)

Auctions

Always follow rules on the auction submission itself!

Never hide your bids, even if you make a mistake. I will hide them if necessary.

Do NOT retract your bids!!! If you retract your bid, especially without notice, you will be suspended/banned from the next or all future auctions.

If outbid, you are no longer obligated to pay me anything once the auction has ended, even if the person who outbid you broke the rules and retracted their bid.

In the event that the winner breaks the rules and retracts their bid or cannot pay, I will ask the runner up if they’d like to purchase at their last bid price, but they may decline.

Auctions always end on the date listed, but 15 minutes after the last bid in the event of last second bids.

Payment is due within 24 hours of me notifying you for winning, unless otherwise discussed beforehand.

If you fail to pay within this time and without notice, I will offer the prize to the next person.

Auction may be cancelled, postponed, or extended in the event of no bids in the first 24 hours or breaking the rules with retracted bids occur.

Use of Artwork/Re-posting

All Rights Reserved.

Do not redistribute, claim, copy, edit, or use it in any way.

My artwork is copyright to me. You are not allowed to use my artwork by any means without my permission!

Only the commissioner of a piece of artwork may re-upload the work.

The commissioner may also, if desired, use the work as part of a ref for an icon.

You must always credit me when re-posting or using any of my art!

You are not allowed to use my art for commercial use without my proven consent and signed agreement.

I am allowed to sell prints or other merchandise of any artwork I create if I so choose, unless you state otherwise before commissioning me or requested a private commission.

Violations to this Terms of Service Agreement will result in Artist Beware / Commissioners Beware, etc. and you will be added to my perma blacklist.

Contact me for more info of my TOS if needed!

Save your Commissions

I am not responsible for deleted or missing commissions from my galleries.

Artist’s clean up their galleries every so often, so please if you care about your commissioned art, you will SAVE them to your computer or privately on imgur or Photobucket, etc.

You are not allowed to complain, get a refund, or a redo of your commissioned art.

I put time and effort into the pieces you pay for. You may politely ask me if I still have the file, but I am in no way obligated to refund or replace the commission if I cannot find it. Sorry.

===============================================

If you have read this T.O.S. please relay “Aurora are so beautiful” to me privately (never publicly) or in the commission form I have you fill out.

This just let me know how many people actually care to read my T.O.S. but whether you’ve read this or not, by commissioning me, you agree to every word of it!

THANK YOU!
