Frequently Asked Questions
GENERAL
❥ Is it alright if I edit or allow others to edit your art?
If you wanna play with some color sliders, or if you want to make filtered changes, I don't mind at all!However, I do NOT permit direct changes that alter my artwork. This means drawing on top of it, cropping or blurring certain parts, etc. Please ask me if you're unsure if whether or not something is okay with me, I'm always more than happy to answer!❥ Okay okay, the finished art and everything looks beautiful and perfect!! Except no it doesn't, will you change XYZ for me?
Short answer, no.After I send the initial draft, I'll ask If I need to make any major or minor adjustments. At the halfway draft, I will ask again if I need to make minor adjustments.Note: Up to four (4) draft revisions made during the initial stage will be free. More draft revisions at the initial drafting stage or major changes requested at the halfway point will be charged for "Draft Revisions" (see Pricing).
I will NOT accept any requests for major changes when a final preview is sent. The purpose of this preview is for minor corrections only (e.g. color correction and missing small details).❥ What are "major changes" and how do they differ from "Additional Details" ?
Major changes include, but are not limited to: a different pose, a different background, a different commission or canvas size, etc. I will let you know if adjustments count as major changes before I make them.Major changes imply that the initial draft is being modified, where as Additional Details are requested upfront before the initial draft is sent. You can be charged for both, one, or neither.❥ What are you okay with drawing? Are there any limits on what you can draw?
I will draw: Girly characters, humans / humanoids, animal / monster features, chibis, some blood and/or gore, etc.
I will NOT draw: NSFW, extreme blood and/or gore, muscular characters, mecha, anthros / animals, etc.Note: Things I will not draw are because I'm not confident in my ability to draw such. Please understand that I may reject your commission if I believe your character falls outside of the scope of what I can draw confidently.❥ I can't commission you right now. Can I be added to a waitlist?
In general, yeah ! Just ask !!I will message everyone on the waitlist with respect to their place in line, and notify each of you when a slot opens based on your place.
If a slot opens and you cannot accept the slot at the time, I will move onto the next person in line. Your position in line will change at my discretion.I reserve the right to remove people from my waitlist if no response is given within a timely manner judged at my discretion.❥ Is everyone on the waitlist guaranteed a commission slot?
Kind of, but not necessarily.I generally open slots for commissions only during the summer of each year, referred to as "batches". I will notify those on the waitlist ahead of time if I cannot get to your commission request during the current batch, but you may choose to stay on the waitlist for the next batch.However, if you change the character and/or commission type requested from your form by the time of the new batch, you will lose your spot on the waitlist and need to resubmit your commission form.First order priority will be those from the waitlist of the last batch, followed by returning patrons, and lastly by new commission requests.
Note: Priority order will also be subject to changes.
PAYMENT
❥ I don't have a Paypal. Is there any other method I can pay for a commission?
No, I will be using Paypal exclusively for the time being. However, VGen offers clients the ability to make transactions through their services without a Paypal. Please order my commissions through VGen if applicable!❥ Can I pay in a currency that is not $ USD?
Technically, I can only accept payments in the form of $ USD via Paypal Invoices. All commission prices are listed in $ USD, but you may be able to pay in your own currency provided that the transaction is automatically converted.You are responsible for knowing your currency's conversion rate at the time of paying for a commission.❥ When will I receive an invoice or request link to pay for the commission?
Upon sending the initial draft, I will ask if there are any changes I should first do. When the initial draft is to your liking, I will send an invoice via Paypal for the total commission amount due. When I confirm that your payment is received, only then will I start working on the commission.I expect payment within two (2) weeks of sending the invoice. Failure to pay without notifying me ahead of time will result in cancelling your commission. Please also provide a receipt (screenshot) of when you've completed your payment.For VGen Clients: due to the current structure of VGen, I must issue an invoice at the time of proposal. You are not obligated to immediately pay off your balance until you have received the initial sketch from me. You may also request for "milestone" based payments through VGen, rather than paying full up front.❥ How will refunds be issued?
Refunds will only be issued under these circumstances:- If I, the Artist, no longer wish to work on a commission after the full payment was received, then I will refund the full commission price total paid by You, the Client.- If I, the Artist, cannot finish a rush order commission by the agreed upon deadline then I will refund the rush order amount paid by You, the Client. I will not refund the full commission price, as I've already begun working on the commission.- If I, the Artist, cannot finish a non-rush order commission by the agreed upon deadline then I will refund half of the full commission price total paid by You, the Client. I will not refund the full commission price, as I've already begun working on the commission.- If You, the Client, wish to cancel your commission before the half-completed draft is sent, then I, the Artist, will refund up to half of the full commission price total paid by You.
The exact amount will vary based on the point of completion at my discretion and is nonnegotiable.Under no other circumstances will I issue any kind of refund for a commission.
TIME
❥ Is there any way for my commission to be completed faster?
Yes, and no...I won't accept commission deadlines I know I can't finish. I'm happy to work with deadlines, provided that it's a minimum of two (2) months notice in advance from when I receive the request date. Every week below the minimum date of notice will increase the total balance by an additional 30% for each week as a rush order fee.
Example: A deadline due one month from the request date will be charged an additional 150% of their total commission fee (5 weeks x 30%). For a $100 USD commission, this rush order fee would increase the total to $250 USDBut please don't just throw a deadline or rush order request at me for the sake of wanting finished art faster. I spend time on each of my commissions to meet my own standards of quality where I can be proud of what I put out. Some commissions take a couple weeks, but some can take several months. However, I do my best to communicate with my clients to ensure they are never confused about when they'll receive their commission !❥ How long until I can expect my illustration commission / animated commission?
For Classic Illustrations:
I do my best to have artwork finished 3-5 weeks from when I receive payment. However, larger and more complex artworks can take me much longer, ranging from 3-4 months. Please understand that I am a student with a frequently changing schedule that dictates my workflow.
Upon request, I'll provide updates on the status of your commission. I'll also let you know ahead of time if I think I need more time for commissions without a deadline.For Animated Illustrations
Based on several factors of each individual commission, the timeline for each animation can highly vary. Simple animations usually tack on an additional week in order to properly prepare the artwork for rigging. Depending on the length of the animation, it may take several days to complete the animation alone.
feel free to ask me any other questions through direct messaging on instagram, vgen, or twitter. i will do my best to respond to questions within 48 hours.
