General Terms of Service

►►► GENERAL INFO ◄◄◄

• You are only purchasing the digital file. Not the printed art.
• I will show you a WIP upon request and on a whim. If i show you a sketch and you want something changed, i will do so ONCE, after that i will charge extra for additional changes. Be clear what you want. If I've missed something though i will not charge you anything extra. 
  
• I will send you the full resolution picture (by dA note), but my signature will remain on it, and a smaller copy (like the one I'll submit on my gallery). If you happen to need to re-upload the picture somewhere, I would appreciate if you only upload the smaller one and never the big file.
  
• Be sure to save the picture somewhere on your computer, usb memory... I cannot say i will never delete anything or put stuff in storage.
• If you want to order an illustration for commercial use, prices will probably double up or more. The following cases are considered commercial use:
             ♦ Reproducing and selling the artwork.
             ♦ Profiting monetarily from my work. 
• I reserve the rights of increasing the price if you want a very high detailed drawing.
  
• I reserve the rights of cancelling your commission if I don't feel like drawing it or you have been proved troublesome in any way.
• Do not ask me to draw in a different style. If you commission me it's because you like my work, not because your favorite artist is busy.
  
• That being said I have paid for the rights to use bases and sketch packs for commissions these are A-ok. I Will not show you the RAW Pay to use base or sketches unless its readily available for free to the public from the artist who made them. 
• Even if the provided reference of your character has a color palette section, I'll probably modify them a bit to make them fit my style (This comes from lighting within the image itself and as i use hints of other colours to shade)
• By purchasing any of my services you're automatically accepting my Terms of Service and being obligated to follow them. As well as promising you won't request any Paypal chargeback.
• I will not do anything NSFW which cannot be posted here. I don't do a lot of NSFW art however i am comfortable drawing nudity but not full on extreme stuff.

►►► COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY ◄◄◄

• As the artist I hold every right to the produced artwork, so I may do whatever I wish with it, in example; 
          ♦ Post/display the picture anywhere I want (giving you proper credit as the owner of the characters).
          ♦ Promote myself with it in any place - I will always give credits to everyone innvolved i.e Character owner/Closed species creator ect.
          ♦ I will most likly upload to Facebook/Tumblr/Tsu and possible Twitter and Youtube in the form of speedpaints.
  
  
• As a commissioner you may:
          ♦ Repost the art on other sites with proper credit to my gallery/page (with no profit purposes).
          ♦ Print the art and even make whatever merchandising you want as long as it's only for your personal use and not for sale.
          ♦ Use it as decoration for your deviantART profile, Facebook avatar, Skype... as long as it's a personal account and you're not making any profit with it.
  
  
• You are NOT ALLOWED to:
          ♦ Change, modify or use my works without my permission.
          ♦ Reproduce the copyrighted artwork comercially (meaning making money of it in any way)
          ♦ Take credit for the art.
          ♦ Remove my watermarks /signatures.
  
  
• If you wish for your commission to not be uploaded anywhere on the internet I'll charge you an extra 30% fee of the total price.
  If by any case you wish to "un-private" that commission in the future (so you can upload it somewhere), you just have to send me a note or message, however there will be no refunds for the extra private fee.

►►► ABOUT BACKGROUNDS ◄◄◄

• Simple background is included in the price of every picture (except for sticker-chibis). But it's totally up to you if you want it or not.
  
• Simple backgrounds means they are plain color, gradient backgrounds with some textures and/or tiny ornamentations. 
  
• Complex backgrounds, such as detailed cities, forest, landscapes, etc... are not included in the price.
  

►►► PAYMENT PROCESS ◄◄◄

• I will only accept Paypal and deviantART points payments.
  
• I require full payment before I start the artwork.
  
• Paypal payments will only be accepted in USD, unless I give you other instructions.
  
• If you don't know how much prices are in your currency use this conversor: www.xe.com/currencyconverter/
  
• I will give you my paypal Link and email.
  
• Paypal fees are included. What you see is what you will have to pay.
  
• If payment is not received in 5 days after I placed the invoice, you will loose your slot. Unless we have agreed otherwise.
  
• I will add you to my to-do list once payment is cleared and details are given.
  
• Do not send me any kind of payment until I have confirmed I can accept your commission. Always wait for my instructions first, specially if you're paying with dA points.
  
• For Point payments, please wait for my instructions. Sometimes I will make you pay through the Commission Widget and others using the Give button.
  
• If you wish to tip me for doing a good job (as I know it is a custom in some countries) you can do it through my paypal or Donation points pool I greatly appreciate it! ♥

             ♦ On your first problematic transaction you'll receive a simple verbal warning.

  *My Paypal email is the email that I'm using to purchase the commission. (*erase if paying with points)

  
  I, [your name/username], certify I have read, understood and accepted your terms of service and I also verify that the commission I am purchasing is 100% voluntary, I am of legal age and/or have my parent's permission to purchase it. As well as I promise to not request any chargeback once the commission is finished.

• Send it to me in a note titled "Commission order" or something similar.
             ♦ If you do not own a deviantART account you can still DM me on Twitter/Tumblr ect
  
• Wait for my answer so we can discuss any details if needed.
  
• Be respectful when talking to me.

►►► WORK SPEED ◄◄◄

• I will try to finish your pic ASAP, however please be patient with me. ETA is 3-7 days since the moment I start working on your illustration, but I may need more time if I have other commissions before yours. Check my to do list on my front page whenever you want for an status update.
  
• The most you'll have to wait for your commission is 3 months (in the worst case, which is not the usual, but it may happen).
  
• This cannot be applied to Collab Commissions where I have no control over my partner's life and schedule, but again I'll do what's in my hand so you don't have to wait much.
  
• I tend to work when I feel most motivated so that your commission is done properly and with best effort!
  
• I will always inform you if something comes up and there is a delay with the art.
  
• You may ask how your commission is going whenever you'd like.
  

►►► CHANGES ◄◄◄

• Once the picture is finished, I can do small changes such as color adjustments and/or adding tiny details I may have forgotten.
  
• Any great changes will come with an extra charge. Such as an outfit change, outfit addition or subtraction, background change or anything that makes me have to redraw it completely.
  
• If your reference was unclear to start with, then you are not allowed to do minor changes without a fee. Make sure to be clear in your order what you aim for.
  

►►► REFUNDS ◄◄◄

• I can refund 100% of the payment only if I have not started working on the sketch. Once I have started the sketch I can refund 75% of the payment. Once I reach the lineart stage there will be no refunds.
  
• You have no right to cancel or demand a refund from the artist under any circumstances after payment is received and I start working on your commission.
  
• If you file a chargeback against me, your right to everything I have ever made for you will be retracted and I have the right to sell the copyrighted artwork to new buyers. Adopts ect
  Also note that you will be blocked and you won't be able to purchase anything from me anymore (commissions, adopts...).
  Your name and info will be publicly posted everywhere for others to watch out for.
