Commission GuidelinesHere’s what you need to know:
**************************
TERMS OF AGREEMENT:
1) ABSOLUTELY NO redistribution, reproduction, or use of commissioned work for personal profit *HOWEVER if you do want to commission me to do something that you can use to sell or publish (such as a book illustration), please let me know in your note. Keep in mind that this will increase the price.
2) The artwork is for personal use only.
3) My signature and/or watermark will be on the final piece, though this won’t interfere or affect the artwork.
4) Payment is in USD (U.S. American Dollars) and PayPal is the [STRONGLY] preferred method of payment.
5) I reserve the right to refuse any commission, and I also reserve the right not to tell you why. This probably won’t happen much, but you never know…

Contacting me:
1) Send me a note with the title: COMMISSION. In the note, send me the following info. If you don’t, your request may get lost or overlooked.
- Your name and e-mail.
- Character(s), specifications, poses, backgrounds, action, all that good stuff. Let me know what you want me to draw.
- Head-shot, Waist-up, Full-body
- Reference material/screenshots/model (ESPECIALLY for original characters. This can also include material that you want included in backgrounds, clothes, or anything of the like). NOTE! If your commission requires reference materials, YOU MUST INCLUDE IT IN YOUR REQUEST! I won’t commit to a commission until I see exactly who/what I’m drawing.
- If it’s alright for me to publish your piece in my deviantArt gallery. Please keep in mind that this is my work and I won’t post it in my gallery if you don’t want to but I do reserve the right to use your commission in my portfolio if I choose to.
2) After receiving your order, I’ll get back to you as soon as I can with any questions I might have. After that, we’ll work out the details and exchange payment information.
3) As soon as I can, I’ll send you a rough sketch of your commission. If you like it, then the first half of the price we settled on will be due. If drastic changes are needed and I need to do a second sketch, there’ll be a $10 fee.
4) Once it’s done, I’ll send you a small version of the finished art with a BIG watermark on it (sorry, trying to weed out the deadbeats). If you like it, the rest of the payment’s due and then I’ll send a high-res JPG file to you. I can also send you a PSD file, but keep in mind that layers will be flattened here.
**************************
*IMPORTANT! If you have a deadline that you’d like a commission by, you should contact me AT LEAST a month before. If that doesn’t work, let me know and we may be able to work something out.
** If you have something more complicated in mind (such as mixing waist-up and full-body shots, action scenes, or group shots) please let me know initially and we’ll work a special price out.
***Unless you tell me specifically what you want; the layout, poses, and overall composition and mood of the piece is entirely up to me.
