Commission Information

Basic Terms

  • Listed prices are for artworks that are for personal use only. Unauthorized reproduction through means such as resale or use in machine learning is prohibited.

  • The listed prices are my minimum asking rates. Most projects usually get a tailored final asking price in the end.

  • Artwork intended for professional or project use will have significantly higher asking prices.

  • I typically share finished work in my portfolios and on social media unless told otherwise.

  • If you share the finished art yourself, please credit me by name. Do not erase my signature.

  • Final asking prices tend to be determined by factors such as design faithfulness, appearances with complex details, anything outside my repertoire, and anything that is noticeably challenging for my current skill set.

  • Final artwork is typically exported in JPG or PNG formats.

  • What I am generally comfortable with drawing: fan art, original characters, providing assistance with character design (please expect an extra fee added to your total), and anything that I appear to specialize in.

  • What I am uncomfortable drawing: uncomfortable subject matter, mechanical designs, technical designs, violence, things without visual references, and more.

  • I will frown on being asked to do major revisions when the project is close to being completed. In the event it happens, I will try negotiating for an additional fee. This fee should be paid upfront.

  • I do not offer refunds if I have made significant progress on the commission.
