COMMISSION PROCESS

Commissions are typically started within two (2) weeks and completed two (2) months at most. Scene or larger commissions may take up to three (3) months. My Trello contains the estimated date I'll be finished with the commission.Deadlines may be considered as long as I'm notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. I do not work with short deadlines.Work in Progress (WIPs) will be provided throughout all stages.Any edits requested by the client will be made during the sketching stage. After the sketch has been approved by the client, significant edits will not be made. However, minor edits the client requests will be made after the art or preset is completed. Major edits after the piece have been completed will be made at additional cost.If I make any character design, accessory, etc. errors, I will make edits regardless of the commission stage.

Art/presets must be completed within two months unless we’ve discussed otherwise.If the artist has not completed their side of the trade, they will not receive the unwatermarked version or preset files until I receive it.Please be honest about updates and progress.
