❯❯ INFO / READ BEFORE ORDERING ❮❮

What will you draw?
Anything except illegal content or hate art. I have my strong areas and my weak areas when it comes to drawing, but as long as you are willing to pay me for it, I'm willing to take a shot at drawing it.

What are your weak/strong points?
Strong points: humans, anthros, pokemon
Weak points: plants, vehicles/machinery

Will you draw NSFW art?
Yes, but only if you're over 18 and willing to pay a little extra.
If you're commissioning someone else's OC in an NSFW situation, I want to see proof that the OC's owner is okay with what you want to commission.
I can show you samples of my NSFW work if you want to see some before ordering.

What medium do you use?
Nowadays I generally do commissions digitally, but I used to do mixed media (traditional lineart + digital colors) in the past. If you're fond of my old style, just let me know - I can make it happen!

It depends. My starting canvas varies from 2500 x 2500 to 3000 x 3000, but the exact final dimensions of your commission will depend on the shape of it.

I also usually resize the piece at the very end so that the tallest side is 1080 pixels. If you want to receive the full resolution version, just ask!

How long will it take?
It depends on the type of your commission is and how many other commissions I have in queue before you. Once you place your order, I will give you a rough estimate of how long it'll take for me to finish the piece.
If you’re commissioning a gift or something important that needs to be done before a certain date, tell me! I may ask for a rush fee if you need the piece within a week, but it has room for negotiation.

Will you post the commissioned pieces in your gallery?
I will hold on to the right to do so, but it doesn't mean I will be posting every commissioned piece in my gallery. If you don’t want your commission to be posted, let me know!

Can I post/use my commission elsewhere (e.g. as an icon)?
As long as it's not commercial use and you give me proper credit, go ahead!

dA notes work too, they just aren't that reliable
If you have my Discord, you can contact me there as well.

Send me a message with a title that clearly says that it's about a commission (e.g. plain "Commission") and include the details of what sort of commission you want.
Wait until I reply to you and either confirm or cancel the commission.

PROCESS
If you order anything more than a sketch, I will show you a sketch of the piece before finishing it. That is your one chance to request any changes to be made.
If you come up with more changes later, I will apply them only for an added fee. The only exception to this is if I've clearly done a mistake in something such as colored a character's eyes a wrong color.

❯❯ PAYMENT ❮❮

Via Paypal (I accept both Euro and USD). I'll send you an invoice. Please do not send payment before you get the invoice!

Finnish people can also use bank transfer.
If your final commission price is $60 or less, I expect to be paid the full price up front.
When the price exceeds $60, you have the option to use half/half policy - half up front, half after I've shown you a WIP. You can of course pay the full price up front if you want to.
I won’t finish the piece before I've gotten the full payment.
I do not accept dA points for payment for regular commissions.

❯❯ CANCELING A COMMISSION ❮❮

I am allowed to turn down a commission or cancel one at any given time. In case you have paid for your commission, you will of course get a full refund.
You are also allowed to cancel the commission at any given time. However, if I've already started working on it, you won't be refunded the full price. Instead, I will refund the difference between the done work, and the full price. You will, of course, also get the non-finished piece.
