PROCESS

1. After a price is agreed on I will send a PayPal invoice to you.

2. The commissioner (you) sends 50% or 100% of the commission price and I confirm receipt of payment.

3.Within 1 month after your initial payment you will receive a sketch of your commission.-

3a. A sketch includes the rough composition with the light source and shadow placements. It consists of 3 colors at maximum to distinguish between fore-, middle- and background.-

3b. You can ask for 3 major revisions at maximum without an additional fee. For every additional revision afterward you will be charged a flat fee of 5 Euro.

4. Once the sketch is approved and the remaining commission price is paid I will continue working on your commission to finish it. Major revisions after the approval of the sketch are not possible.

5. I will send you a Work in progress (WIP) upon completing the stages line art, flat color and shading. Keep in mind that those WIPs are a preview of your commission so they are smaller, have a WIP-watermark on it and are in jpg-Format.-

5a. You can ask me for more WIPs outside the benchmark-WIPs I already provide. However, please refrain from asking me too frequently.-

5b. While reviewing the WIPs you can ask for small corrections.

7. When the final preview is approved you will receive an E-Mail with your commission attached to it. It will contain a watermarked version of your commission and one without it for personal use.

REFUNDING AND CANCELING

My drawing stages are as followed: Sketch, line art, flat colors, shading.

1. Canceling before receiving the first version of the sketch: Full refund in any case

2. Canceling after receiving the first version of the sketch:
- If 50% paid upfront: No refund.
- If 100% paid upfront: 50% of total commission price refunded.Note that receiving the very first version of the sketch is the benchmark regardless of whether you approve of the sketch or want revisions.
Denying paying the remaining 50% of the total commission price (when only 50% of it was paid upfront) will cancel the commission automatically.

3. Canceling after the approval of the sketch: No refund in any case
