GENERAL TERMS

Age
To align with my general online rules, please do not commission me for anything if you are under 16.
If you are above that age and getting a safe commission to gift for someone younger, please don't show them my page. I just personally am not comfortable with younger people seeing my personal accounts, even SFW. Thanks for understanding.As you will see below, I also sometimes take NSFW subjects. Obviously, you MUST be 18+ to get anything nude, sexual/fetish, or drug related; this can become a legal issue not to mention that its extremely uncomfortable. If you can't honestly confirm being 18+, I won't do NSFW subjects with you.
Your nsfw commission will never be publicized as such! I will always just put it in the queue defined by detail/price only and I will never share your purchase around without your consent!Process & WorkI only really draw furries and monsters.
I am too unconfident in humans to sell my work of them and will probably only do very, very simple humanoids.I am severely visually impaired.
I am only lucky enough to do visual art with corrective surgery, all the time I spent practicing, and zooming/technology. This is even with my glasses-- please don't be invasive about my capabilities (see more on smalltalk below).
Please cooperate and communicate with me to make sure I add all the little details of your character. I try my best, but I can easily miss small things purely because I do not see them the same way you might. Please do not act as if I am purposefully obtuse; I try my absolute best on commissions.
I cannot ask you to inherently know what I can and cannot see from my perspective. What's small to you is tiny to me. I can, however, enforce that you are polite and understanding about the changes I very well may need to make.Commissions are a luxury, not a necessity. I have the right to deny work for any reason, and you are not to pester me unless I am silent past the estimate i give you. be patient and kind. Do NOT haggle prices with me. They are final, and I will not cut prices for ANY reason.
I know that only I can fully understand my continuum of pricing, but here's some insight: it IS based on a $15/hr AVERAGE for each style, give and take. So, that's why double fullbody oc = entirely doubling the price (with half = half price, headshot = quarter price) , as each fullbody OC would add almost the entirety of those hours again to draw, giving me some grace here.*re:patience: yes, I will post personal projects in between your own! I have the full right to do this, as commissions are WORK, and i will burn out or become stressed if i do not also do art completely for myself. If you have a problem with that, when i otherwise get your sketch update to you within a month, you aren't allowed to work with me.I reserve the right to post your commission to my galleries as an example, unless you or the organization which my work is to be used for has a contract of confidentiality, such as an NDA. I have no personal contract, as I am a part-time freelancer. You can post your stuff wherever you want and I only raise my basic and inherent copyrights when work is profited off without my consent or claimed as your own work.
Still, as individuals, noncommercial use and private posting are primarily courtesy-based. I will not post your work if you give a good reason for me not to (ex. it is NSFW, you are trying to stay hidden online due to a stalker or harassment, etc.). Otherwise, we may both post it wherever we wish.Be aware that I have my own mind and likely will not give you exactly what you want the first or second time around. You are asking for my interpretation, not your idea perfectly as you want it. Asking me to fix something more than 3 smaller revisions in a row for a project is an extra $5 charge per subsequent fix, while asking me to change the whole sketch is upwards of $15-20 in an immediate added fee. I will only change a sketch, not anything lined or colored, and i will probably only do one sketch rehaul before ceasing work with you.
Please be kind and understanding. Do not chastise me for not "getting" you the first time when that is impossible; its completely your responsibility to provide and stick with important details before we begin. Aside from the aforementioned visual impairments, I also may just see something differently from your opinion, or make a human error!!
I may discontinue work if i feel I am changing too many times or you are being misunderstanding, because I will become discouraged in my skill. You will be refunded based on my progress on the drawing (if flat colored or more, you will not be refunded).
Of course I can change something for you, so dont be afraid to get your money's worth!! But, also expect artistic liberty too and just be kind about it if something is wrong!IF WE ARE NOT ALREADY FRIENDS:
You are contacting me as a client and nothing more. Please do not strike up casual conversation with me. We politely discuss art or serious concerns only. Talking to me once or twice or being mutuals or whatever does not equal friendship in my eyes. I will take maybe one or two questions about random stuff before I get uncomfortable and block you-- asking about my life when it has nothing to do with the commission = instant block.
Regular clients and I may chat a bit on the topic of the art and be less cordial, but I don't want full fledged conversations about random/personal topics in ANY circumstances.
If you haven't spoken about personal/non-art topics to me over a long period of time, we aren't friends, even if we are mutuals or have done many projects together. I'm sorry if this is rude, but I'm just not the kind of person who wants many friends! I think it's overwhelming.Details are not annoying! Unless you want me to go ham on your piece...potentially in a way that you dislike...you must plan ahead your idea and give me any details you can about what you'd like!You MUST have visual reference for pre-existing characters.Please know your artist. Do not come to me for realistic, accurately humanoid and/or very refined artwork when all my examples show messy, often saturated anthro art.
My art is also mainly pretty cute, because that's just what I like, but I can work with more creepy/gross characters too as long as you don't mind some cuteness x)Boundaries/Will Not Work With
Bigots cannot work with me in any way. This includes anything within the basic definition-- intolerance, hatred of others for identity/orientation, race, body, or religion. Personally expressing prejudiced views due to your religion disallows you from working with me. Exclusionists and transmedicalists, as well as TERFs and adjacent, are disallowed from working with me. I will be checking over your online history the first time you contact me for work. Be careful what you say online and how you treat different people.Harrassers, predators, and their apologists cannot work with me in any way.
- Predation, in this certain regard, includes the premeditated intent to violate consent or consent laws. As an offshoot, it includes apologism for such and active engagement with communities that create social networking based around the violation of consent/consent laws.
- Harassment includes repeated physical, sexual, or emotional abuse of any persons, along with any (e-)stalking, witchmobbing or spamming, even if done in "justice".As you will see below, my art/designs may be edited minorly and respectfully, so long as you take responsibility for your edits. However,I do not consent to my artwork being used for commercial AI work because this is not minor nor is it respectful. If you are testing a personal AI model, I cannot stop you, as I cannot stop any personal/private behavior. I will stop you if this becomes commercial.I do not want any sort of involvement in NFT work. I consider NFT work unethical and uncomfortable. Do not use my artwork as any sort of basis to create an NFT.I am uncomfortable working with scammers. I take at least half of payments upfront, if not whole; please see the Payment section further along. This includes those who are documented not to deliver owed payments or work in a timely manner, as well as those involved in scam networks. I do not trust you to respect my non-commercial policy nor my time.I will be checking your username for any sketchy history! Be up front with me if there are claims against you, and I may or may not continue to allow work if you have already apologized and done what you can to make amends. However, that is up to me to decide.
I investigate earnestly, and without kneejerk, I only go off of concrete evidence displaying active, continuous wrongdoing.
*Friend drama, even if severe, does not disallow me work with someone, unless they have broken my TOS (e.g. Harassment or premeditated abuse, bigot, etc.)
**Disagreeable, perverted, or "edgy" (yet not bigoted) online behavior does not disallow me work from someone. The time in which I will deny work is if the client actively tries to endanger others/revoke their consent, or is in such a community which encourages this mindset (see above). If you go so far to involve me in personal drama, I have the right to criticize how seriously i think it affects my work.
***Let me make this clear again: I am not your friend, I am not connected with your friends, I do not have to love or hate your friends or enemies. If you are that uncomfortable because I worked with someone you don't like, just block me.
Remember that bothering me with drama or callout posts that do not concern me may very well result in a block.
If we are not established as friends, we maintain a clientele relationship ONLY.

USAGE OF COMMISSION

°°°PROFIT SHARE NOT DISCUSSED°°°
You may personally use commissions, but NOT commercially. You are not to give to third-party sellers. I do understand that sometimes art is stolen without anyone's power to stop it, but if I find you profiting from any of my work, you'll be blacklisted and reported on your platform. I have no contract over my work so I am relying on trust and the TOS of my platforms.
I will outline what I consider personal use below.To personally use without partaking in...essentially art theft, you have to visibly credit back to a platform of mine or this carrd in your bio, post, or page!OK WITH FULL CREDIT: toyhouse/other public site upload, profile picture, personal merch/shirt, avatar/pngtuber, stream decor, banner, nightcore cover art/amv art, anything else not below i guess!NOT OK: merchandise produced for sale, artwork heavily used in projects where you profit from (minor use is ok, such as monetized YouTube video where it's shortly there or used as decor, but not if it directly means to advertise your product), commercial AI based off my work, NFTYou are allowed to make minor edits of my work without my permission. HOWEVER, you must link the original somewhere (you dont have to upload it- just a link will do), and directly state that you are responsible for any edit and that I did not review it.
This is very important as to absolve me the responsibility and credit for YOUR edits. I will comment wherever I can with clarification and block you thereafter if you fail to do this.---
°°°PROFIT SHARE DISCUSSED°°°
Of course, as a freelancer, I am happy to work with you on your merch, game, show etc. (i can't animate though!)however, I must be paid a fair fraction for sales. So it can't just be me getting $5 while you get $20 if my art is like..the main reason your shirts are selling, lol. I like 40-60 (me 40%, you 60%) or 50-50 shares usually, but if my art only appears minorly or you have a particular contract, I can accept to only recieve a quarter of sales.We can discuss and negotiate this. If i end up getting paid unfairly, you'll be blacklisted and I will report you if I can. And I will be bothersome about recieving my payment on time! You must tell me FIRST if something delays our agreed payment time, I am sorry but i cant continuously trust and accept increasingly late payments. Let's make a paycheck schedule and try to stick to it.I have the right to refuse projects of disinterest.Let me know if anything seems unclear here!! There's no stupid questions regarding this stuff :]

CUSTOM DESIGNS?

After a long time of doing them and thinking on it, I no longer do customs unless the client is my friend or I come to you with the interest of gaining art/oc/etc. in trade for custom work from me.
I will do redesigns on a case by case basis.This is not the fault of my dear clients. It is not attributed to ANY one person, as lots of people have gotten customs, and were all SO kind. It is circumstantial, both mentally and life-wise for me; I cannot dredge up the mental energy to continue them longterm.
I will still create adopts which you are free to customize and respectfully redesign.

By continuing, you are agreeing to me that you read everything the best you could and will come to me up front with any questions. You will not make assumptions about me or my process.

• I read and agree to the above

50x50 and 60x60

70x70 and up

ANIMATED (pixels and some smaller other things, why not? it's like a mix of the banner section and a pixel. unsure of what to put it as lol)

ON ANIMATIONS:
- animations are small, as I am not an experienced animator. please understand that this is an experimental slot.
- I can send the animation progress how you'd like, be it a static pixel first and then the frames I "tweened"/added on, or sketch frames of animation.
---
I apologize, but carrd continues to give me errors when attaching animated examples. Please click here to see the examples.

BUTTONS:
STATIC: $10
MILDLY ANIMATED: $15BANNERS:
STATIC: $15
MILDLY ANIMATED: $20-

cute simple and sketchy$20-40 per Fullbody character (+halfbody only adds half price; +headshot only ~quarter) but I can do a sketchpage for $25 plus any complexity fees, as a discount!
-
price estimate in order of picture:
$20, $20, $25, $25, $30, $35, $35, $40, $40 (two $20 characters)

a bit more detailed but usually no or little background, and not as detailed as it can go$45-60 per fullbody character (+half, sketchy, or chibi = half price, headshot = ~quarter) but I can do an experimental sketchpage like the last for $60 (discount!). any complexity fees could apply on top of all this.price estimate, in order:
$45, $45, $45, $50, $50 (large-style, but only a head), $55 (large-style, but only up to about the knee), $50 (two $20 characters + bg $10), $60]

the full potential. Can have a full and tangible backdrop/environment. Will do a fully colored sketchpage where i go crazy for $100 (discount!). complexity fees apply to all, I can do a complex character large but it could be over $100!$70-100+ per fullbody character (+half, sketchy, or chibi = half price, headshot = quarter)price estimate, in order:
$70, $75, $80, $80, $90, $90-100 (depends on bg and character detail; this is a simple character), $100, $120, $150 as a composition, note the bg characters, but the complexity of the subject and the bg would specifically make this closer to $200.

Vouchers/volunteer payers are totally okay! please just have the payer attach a note saying they are not the client!I take payments via paypal, either upfront or invoice, whatever youd like! I can also do ko-fi or cashapp if paypal does not work, though.
I will now accept discord nitro, for $10 pixels! I do not accept other gift cards. Aside from that, I do NOT take ANY form of ficticious or otherwise non-monetary compensation. Examples: You cannot do an alternate task for me, I will not take "Diamonds" in some app as payment.You should do "for goods and services" unless you seem as though you know me. Saying anything about covering my paypal transaction fees or doing friends and family could get my paypal account frozen or banned. tip me afterwards if you like my stuff and are concerned!
Payments of $50 or more may be broken up into two halves, one upfront and one after you approve my sketch. (25x2, 50x2, etc.)
I will not break up payments below $50, and you will always be making ONE payment upfront! I will also not usually break up payments more than twice, as I begin completing the sketch upon recieving full payment.
(process: you pay the sketch price so I can formally begin the work, then I send the sketch update and you pay the second half so i can formally complete the work.)I won't take a flatcolor update third payment, unless we negotiate starting 3-time payment plans around payments of $200 or more for one piece. I won't go more than 3 due to my updating system, and you will ALWAYS be paying the full amount before I render/finish the piece.
(process: you pay first third upfront, I send sketch and you pay second, i send flats and you pay third, this is now the complete payment for me to finish the piece).Once you pay, i add you to a queue which i will tell you where you are and an estimated time to recieve a sketch update. This queue is public and can be found on the first page. The only information I publicize is the internet handle you contacted me with, the detail level, and the price.
This is to hold me accountable as well as help me keep track, so I will not anonymize this, nor am I bound by contract to because it is freelance work for individual people, not a private organization with a confidentiality contract.
(MAKE ME AWARE if your project has a confidentiality contract with it and i will NOT add it to the public queue)PLEASE NOTE: the sketch will be more like a "concept" and will be rough and therefore slightly to moderately altered during completion (keeping all of the same pose and style and such ofc) because there are parts I want to depthen/change perspective of/etc. I can absolutely make something more like the og for you, but the end image may be not exactly like the sketch just because I naturally change stuff as I polish.
For individuals, if you ask me to change this too many times or appear overly unhappy, you will be refunded and i will quit working with you. You have full rights to the sketch, including coloring it yourself if you wish.
For organizations/graphic design for orgs/events/sites, I am more tolerant of constant revisions as there is the prospect of my work being profitable and fitting the vision of the organization, but for the love of god just be nice and communicative about EXACTLY what you want, or i am quitting with you.I only do art trades with people I follow (feel free to ask if I do). This isn't all the time though, so I may even say no to mutuals! I'm highly busy!!
I will not take any haggle prices and I only do commissions for real money, not virtual currency or cryptocurrency.

I will only give refunds before or during the sketch stage, unless there is an emergency, or I feel i cannot work with you without sacrificing my mental health any longer (this only happens if youre rude or never sure of what you want/like lol). Refunds will not be entirety unless I have not started work yet- i will keep a fraction based on the hours of progress I've put in.
I implore you to make sure you will be financially stable through the entire process ahead of time before commissioning, and remain polite and easy to work with, so that refunds will not have to happen.
