Base rates for standard and specialty items are listed under Rates above. Rates are fixed as listed. The following modifiers apply on top of the base rate:

I retain all first ownership and copyright of the original illustrations I create. Any illustration featuring the intellectual property of a respective rightsholder — fanart, for instance — is classified as a derivative work. A personal licence is granted upon successful payment and delivery. No work will be conducted under a work-for-hire arrangement.

Licences and price adjustment — the listed rate is multiplied by the licence you need.

All illustrations I provide fall under the moral rights outlined by the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works:

1. Right of attribution. My right to be appropriately credited for work that I create.
2. Right against false attribution. My right not to have work I did not create attributed to me.
3. Right of integrity. My right to object to alterations of my work that would harm my character, honour, or standing.

Failure to adhere to these principles will result in appropriate action taken.

Original characters and unofficial redesigns. At this time I am strictly limiting my commission work to established, official characters from existing media franchises. I am not accepting requests for original characters, self-inserts beyond a generic stand-in, or modifications of canon characters heavy enough to make them unrecognisable.

Professional conduct. To keep your project moving, communication stays focused on the artwork and rates stay fixed as listed. Naturally, a little bit of conversation is expected — do not take it as if we can never talk, lol.

NSFW boundaries. Expressing enthusiasm behind an NSFW commission is expected. Continuous unsolicited explicit imagery, or sexual conversation not relevant to the project, is not tolerated. Violation results in immediate cancellation without refund and a permanent blacklist.

Right of refusal. I reserve the right to decline any project, or any requested change, that falls outside my comfort zone, my technical scope, or my artistic lens.

100% upfront. Payment is made in full via PayPal. Work does not commence until payment has fully cleared.

No refunds. You are compensating me for my time, expertise, and established style, and for the trust placed in my ability to deliver. Providing accurate references upfront is your responsibility. Refunds are not issued once work has begun.

Chargebacks. Any chargeback initiated before, during, or after the creation of the artwork results in a permanent blacklist and the immediate revocation of all usage rights to the illustration.

Detailed requests containing photobashes, sketches, and clear references are heavily encouraged.

1. Payment. Cleared and verified.
2. Conceptual stage. Only if I believe it is needed.
3. Lineart. The first major milestone. Watermarked.
4. Base values / rendering. Advanced iteration. Watermarked.
5. Final product. Delivered at full resolution, watermark removed. No further revisions accepted.

A major revision constitutes correcting an identified discrepancy or a subversion of expectations. Minor cleanups — misregistrations and the like — are fixed at no cost. You are allotted two free major revisions during the lineart and early value stages. Any revision beyond those two incurs a $10 fee per request, and production halts until the fee is paid.

I work a full-time job and will spend what time I can on an artwork, expeditiously and in a timely manner.

Expected turnaround after confirmed payment is roughly 1–3 days of planning and preparation — discussion, sketching — followed by a 1–3 day period of beginning work. Should any factor before or during a commission cause a delay, I will inform you of it.

Communication is appropriate during the request phase, for any updates, and naturally for any conversation that follows a completed commission. I do not provide art updates or engage in non-professional conversation at will. To protect uninterrupted focus on your art, updates are provided exclusively at established project milestones, where they are to be expected.

Put this at the very top of your commission request:

This code signifies that you have faithfully reviewed and intend to honour the terms and conditions you are agreeing to as a commissioner.
