- If you want to use the artwork for anything profitable, or as part of a project (i.e. prints, charms, designs, game development) we will ask for a royalty/project use fee. Fee depends on the project or use.
PROCESS AND TURNAROUND
- Typical turnaround can range from within 72 hours to 2 months (~8 weeks) after the initial sketch is shown. If our turnaround claim can’t be met, we’ll let you know in advance.
- We always show a sketch for approval before continuing the piece.
- After the initial sketch, a WIP (work in progress) will be provided at the lineart stage and wherever else we see fit. For more complex pieces, WIPs will be shown while working on the background or other details if applicable.
- WIPs and updates can be requested at any time.
- We are disabled and have chronic fatigue and this does affect our ability to work. Please keep this in mind before commissioning.
COMMISSION QUEUE
Once your commission is accepted (not necessarily paid), it'll be put on a public Trello board and regularly updated with status.
DESIGN USE RULES

- The character is for personal use and all the rights of ownership go to you. If you want to use the design for anything profitable or commercial means (video game, product designs, VTubing), we can discuss it and we'll ask for a royalty fee.
