🌻I. GENERAL TERMS

🌻II. PAYMENT

• I only accept payment through Paypal invoice only in USD, if you’re in the same country(PH) as mine, we can also settle in GCash
• I do not start on commissions until the FULL price is paid upfront unless the commission work is worth 90 USD or over.
‣ For the commissions that cost 90 USD or higher, I will require at least half payment to be made before I start the commission. The final artwork can only be sent when the other half of the payment has been made.
• If you don't pay on the agreed payments or left your commission for 4 weeks, I have the right to use the art for my own purposes.
• Don't send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot. I will send you an invoice which will indicate the time you will need to pay.

🌻III. COMMISSION STAGE, PROCESS & DELIVERY

• I will notify you when I have started on your commission and you, therefore, lose the rights to a refund (see VII. REFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY further below for more info about refunds)
• I'll send you art progress in low-quality images and watermarked versions.
Sketch > Lineart > Base Coloring > Final

• Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image. Note that this is a digital artwork hence there is no physical product that will be sent to you.

🌻IV. REVISIONS

• Maximum of 2 revisions, more than that, I will charge a revision fee. Revisions can only be done in the sketching stage. Very minor revisions like color changes for base colors are okay. Unless the mistake is my fault, the revision limit is not counted.
PLEASE be specific with what your artwork will be. Each revision after that will cost you extra.
• If you wish for me to change/add something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you an extra 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.
