How does this all work?
If you have a problem with any of these statements, they may be changed if discussed with me prior to paying for your commissioned piece.
1. GENERAL TERMS
-
All drawings will include a subtle signature that you may not remove.
-
I might record the drawing process and post it on my youtube.
-
Prices are subject to change based on demand.
-
I have the right to reject any order that I do not feel comfortable drawing for any reason.
​
​
2. PAYMENT
-
Currency accepted is either USD or EUR and has to be paid through PayPal.
-
Commissions can be paid either 100% upfront or split 50% upfront and 50% after first sketch approval.
-
I don’t accept any payment until I have formally agreed to take your commission.
​
3. PROCESS
-
I will notify you when I have started on your commission and you, therefore, lose the rights to a refund (see point 7 further below for more info on refunds)
-
While I'm working on your commission I will make reviews with you to make sure I make it just right for you!
-
The amount of reviews depends on the complexity of the work.
-
During the reviews, you will see work-in-progress and these images will usually include a watermark and be smaller than the finished piece.
-
The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week - 3 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece, other work and con seasons.
-
If anything comes up that will slow the progress of the initially estimated delivery time I will let you know asap.
-
Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image. Note that there is no physical product.
​
4. REVISIONS
-
You get 3 rounds of changes on the commissioned piece included in the price.
-
A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.
-
If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.
-
If your reference is unclear to start with changes will come at an extra charge.
​
5. COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY
-
I, the artist, claim the rights to the produced drawing, not the buyer. Therefore I am allowed to use the copyrighted artwork to:
-
Promote myself with it everywhere
-
Publish books with it (artbooks, etc.)
-
Display it everywhere to my liking (website, social media, etc.)
-
-
The buyer is allowed to:
-
Use the commissioned piece for personal use only, unless agreed otherwise (you can upload it on all your social media profiles, forums, etc.)
-
Print the artwork and claim the character(s) as their own, but not the artwork itself.
-
Use the artwork to promote themselves. You are not forced to give me credit when you post it but it is very appreciated.
-
Use the artwork on their Youtube channel and in monetized videos as long as the artwork itself is not the main subject for the earnings.
-
-
The following is considered copyright infringement:
-
Reproducing/using the copyrighted artwork commercially - means making money off it in any way.
-
Claiming the artwork as your own
-
Removing my signature from the artwork
-
Altering the artwork without my consent
-
-
I reserve the full rights to the image and it's use/distribution unless otherwise agreed upon (rights to the image for your own non-personal use may be purchased at any time).
​
6. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
-
If you have a problem with anything in regards to the commissioned piece please tell me right away so we can find a solution together.
-
I am willing to change some of my terms for you if you ask before I start on your commission. If you, e.g., do not want me to post your art anywhere, we can discuss it.
​
7. REFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY
-
The buyer is not allowed a refund once I started working on the commission.
-
If for any reason I am unable to start your commission you will receive a full refund.
-
If you cancel your order before I started it, you can get a full refund.
-
If you are getting a refund, do not request a Paypal chargeback. I will transfer the money back to you myself.
-
If you request a Paypal chargeback at any point when you were not allowed to ask for a refund you will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece and I will have the full right to profit further from it in any way. I will decline the chargeback and supply Paypal with our conversations in which we talk about the commission as evidence that I have completed work for you. Furthermore, you will be blacklisted for commissioning me again.​
If the buyer breaks any of the points stated above they will lose all the beforementioned rights to the artwork commissioned by me, and I will have the right to profit further from the commissioned artwork in any way I see fit. If you have a problem with any of these statements, they may be changed if discussed with me prior to paying your commissioned piece.
