7. FurriesMechas, pets, and furries are currently outside my purview as an artist and I don't have much interest in drawing them anyways. However, that could change.Payment and Use of Artwork
> All prices are in USD. Payment is done via Paypal (friends and family, I don’t know enough about goods and services to adjust my prices for that) or Zelle. Depending on my situation, I will ask for an additional 1.75% (minimum 25 cents) to cover immediate transfer from my Paypal to my bank. Any upfront payments are done in deposits.
> I reserve the right to use commissions for portfolios and posting on Twitter/Bluesky/Instagram. I will tag you when I post them so you can see on those platforms. However, only you will get the version without the watermarks. It'll be on the honor system that you don't post the unwatermarked version on other platforms.
> If this is a birthday gift, you are allowed to share the non-watermarked version to them, but tell the giftee the terms about posting the unwatermarked version when you send the gift to them.
> On that same note, notify me if this is a birthday gift and I’ll refrain from posting publicly until after you’ve confirmed that you’ve given the piece to your giftee.
> My work is for personal use only such as profile pictures, banners, computer/phone backgrounds, and making singular charms/standees (production of merch not offered unless otherwise specified). Give credit in your bio when you use my work for profile pictures and/or banners. Emoji/emotes depend on where you'll use them. Emotes for discord servers (so long as they're not connected to a brand or Youtube/Twitch channel) are classified under personal use and I will do it. Emotes for social media platforms (such as Twitch and Youtube) are considered monetized use and I will not do them.
The only exception to "no monetized use" is if you choose to use my artwork on your desktop/mobile background and it's shown to your stream due to you switching games, art programs, or whatever else. It would be entitled for me to force you to change your background before and after each stream.
> Do not use my artwork in AI training machines or NFTs.Step-By-Step Commission Timeline1. While I will post ads in places where they are approved, I will not come unsolicited to ask if you want to commission me.
2. Once you have seen my commission sheet, please be detailed of what you want out of the art piece. References for characters are required, especially if they are flat colored with no shading/lighting that obscures their color palette. For posing, stock images or even stick figure drawings would mean the world as it helps me create your vision a lot easily.
3. As of this moment, I won't ask for upfront payment unless the total cost comes to or over $70 USD (in that case, it will be a %10 deposit). Instead, I will only ask for payment once I'm finished and send a low-resolution version of your commission.
4. After we have discussed the commission (and deposited any money if applicable) I will start sketching. Sketch turnaround time is 24-48 hours after all terms have been established, I will notify you if there will be a longer turnaround time.
After the sketch is done, I will send you the sketch to verify that it's to your vision/liking. This is the only place you can edit the piece in the posing, facial expression, etc. These edits are free and you can have as many as you see fit. But after you give the approval and I progress, you will not be able to make any edits in this area.
5. After the sketch is done, turnaround time depends on the complexity of the piece. Simple pieces (stuff like 1 character, simple or no background) have a maximum two week turnaround time. Complex pieces (such as multiple characters, storied backgrounds, and scenes) have a maximum 2 month turnaround time.
For simple pieces, unless established otherwise during our conversation, there will not be any further progress updates.
For complex pieces, I will send a progress update of when I have put flat colors on every element that needs coloring. I'll also do a generalized airbrush in terms of where shadows and lighting will be and play with blending modes and opacity to get the version that best suits your vision
