TERMS OF SERVICE

the rules below must be read and agreed to before commissioning me.payment
1. please wait for confirmation before sending payment
2. payment must be sent in full before i begin your commission, but if you're commissioning for a larger sum of money, we can discuss payment plans
3. i accept paypal (usd) as my primary form of payment but if you don't have it, we can discuss another way!
4. i don't do refunds, sorry about that!!communication
1. please be patient! while i do make commissions my priority in art, it's common for something to hold me up, especially when i'm in school.
2. i have the right to decline your commission if i feel that i cannot complete it or i'm uncomfortable with it. also, if you have a known history of being gross (homophobic, racist, abusive, etc.) i won't accept your commission either.
3. by default, i will send you the sketch for confirmation in case you'd like any changes. if you do not want me to do this, please let me know beforehand
4. timelapses are available after completion, and if you'd like me to send you the one from your commission, just ask!
5. if there is a mistake on your commission that needs to be fixed, LET ME KNOW!! please don't be afraid to correct me if i got a marking/accessory/etc. wrong, i'd be happy to fix it for you!other
1. please send me a clear digital character reference! it doesn't have to be a full sheet, as long as i can see and colourpick the character's design, it's good.
2. once the commission is completed, you may use it how you like (reposts, icons, banners, etc. nothing weird) as long as you credit me.
3. please be aware that i am mostly comfortable drawing feral animals (on four legs)! this means i'm all good with drawing felines, canines, and other four-legged animals with similar anatomy, but i can't draw humans. anthros i am working on getting my skill up on, so if you’re ok with a possibly longer wait time we can discuss something! headshots for anthro characters are fine, though. if you're not sure if i'm comfortable drawing your oc, you can always ask!
