GENERAL
CLIENT a.k.a you
You, the Client, will be expected to first read my TOS and understand my general Commission Prices.
You, the Client, may display my work on external sites as long as it is visibly credited and linked back to me.
You may not upload or host my work in any gallery that is intended to display your own work only.
You may not claim my work as your own. I still have the full right on my art.
You may use the Artwork for personal use including but not limited to: avatars, phone or computer wallpapers, and personal website/profile displays.
You reserve the right to print or create an otherwise physical reproduction of the Artwork as long as it is for your PERSONAL use only (ie. NOT for sale). Please LET ME KNOW beforehand.
You may not use the Artwork for redistribution or external projects, commercial or non-commercial (i.e. t-shirts, mugs, public flyers, etc.) unless otherwise discussed.
In the case of an adoptable, you retain the rights to the character design.
You are NOT authorized to change, modify, edit or use my works without my permission. If you want any changes to be made, don't be afraid to let me know.
You are NOT authorized to trace over my Artwork in any way, including the use of the artwork as a “base.”
Any harassment in an attempt to bargain for a commission (a ‘slot’) is not tolerated. I reserve the right to place anyone on the blacklist over harassment.
Clients who have commissioned and/or received work before this TOS has gone into effect are still bound to its contents.
These clients are permitted to include signatures and/or watermarks indicating the Artwork is my intellectual property. Credit in some form is required.
For now, commissions I made only can be use as PERSONAL ONLY, NO COMMERCIAL. (This subject likely will be change in the future)
Artist a.k.a me
By commissioning me, you are purchasing my service as an artist only.
I retain all rights to my work, which means I have the right to use the artwork for self-promotion and upload it to any of my personal galleries or portfolio, unless requested. If you want to be private about your commission please let me know beforehand.
I reserve the right to decline any project or client for any reason.
I reserve the right to refund you the full amount paid if I no longer wish to work on your project for any reason.
disclaimer
Please note that all of my sales are "Digital Artwork" and it is the Artwork’s "Intellectual Property" that is purchased by you, the Client.
Nothing is ever intended by either me or the Client, to be physically shipped to them.
My commissions will be exclusively made as "Digital Artwork".
I cannot accept assigned deadline, I am a full time student so it will be impossible for me to rush such a deadline.
copyright
I reserve the right to sign and/or watermark my own work. I will send you a full resolution image (mainly via email), but my signature will remain on both the full resolution and smaller versions of the Artwork.
You are responsible for protecting your ownership over rights to a character design made by me by creating a copy image with your name added as well (ie. through a watermark) when uploading on external sites.
I retain all copyright over my work, which includes the right to redistribute, reproduce, or use the image as a sample for sales or self-promotion unless otherwise agreed upon. In the case of a Public Commission, I may do whatever I wish with the art (eg. post it to other sites such as Instagram) but will give proper credit to you for ownership of the character’s design.
In the case of a commission, I will not claim the rights to a character design unless it was one of my own designs. Therefore I will not reuse/resell the Artwork for personal or commercial projects unless agreed upon.
In the case of an adoptable design, I will not reuse/resell the rights to the design once ownership is transferred to you, the Client.

ORDERING
You are expected to fill out the Commission Ordering form on my google form unless stated by me otherwise
You will then get a email or dm from me if discussing the details (if needed) as well as me confirming your slot.
I reserve the right to make changes to your request as I see fit unless otherwise discussed. To guarantee the total accuracy of your commission request, please make note of the required details and elements in the form.
If your character is extremely detailed, I have the right to charge a fee to include these details. This fee will be stated before the transaction, and you hold the right to make changes to your commission request (eg. change the character, agree to simplified design changes) before the transaction is complete.
Please make your request concisely worded with minimal abbreviations, so as to make the note clear to read.
Any emails, private messages, and comments that you send must come in the following languages: English or Malay.
Before taking part in any transaction, you are required to wait for a reply so that we can discuss the details.
I will - after everything is processed and confirmed - send you an invoice. You need to confirm the payment with me before I start your order.
PAYMENT
I am not responsible for any mistakes that are made on your part over the course of the transaction.
I will only accept USD via PayPal or Ko-Fi and MYR via RHB (For Malaysians).
It is expected that you deposit 100% of the price upfront before I start. No exceptions unless otherwise discussed.
After 100% of the payment is sent, I will start Sketching. The Sketch will then be sent to you.
I will initiate the transaction to avoid accidental transactions. Do not send me any kind of payment until I have confirmed I can accept your commission AND have asked for payment.
Payments via Paypal are sent via Invoice method only unless otherwise stated.
I do not accept payment from shared PayPal accounts unless you are not of legal age and use a parent/guardian’s PayPal account.
For payments via RHB (for Malaysians), I will be sending you an QR code by email including the my account details. Proof of payment must be provided in order to have your order confirmed.
If payment is not made in a timely manner (48hrs) after I've placed the Invoice, unless otherwise discussed and agreed upon, the commission will be cancelled. I can hold payment for a week.
Repeated counts of commissioning a project and failing to pay will result in blacklisting.
For auctions, you are NOT allowed to retract your bid. On your first problematic transaction, you'll receive a simple verbal warning.
refunds
I can refund 100% of the payment only if I have not started working on the sketch.
Once I start the sketch there will be NO REFUNDS.
I can only refund around 80% if there are errors in PayPal fees, taxes and/or transfer fees.
If I cancel a project, I will reimburse the lost fees and refund 100%.
If we agree on a payment plan and I start the commission after the first deposit has been done, I will not refund your said deposit if you back out of the Payment Plan.
chargeback
You are NOT authorized to issue a chargeback for any reason.
If for any reason your PayPal account malfunctions or authorizes a refund request without your knowledge, you must contact me as soon as possible in order to resolve the issue.
You are required to contact me when you need to cancel a commission request.
Purposefully issuing a chargeback without contacting me to cancel/refund a project will result in immediate blacklisting for you as well as your email address, and anyone sharing your PayPal account, including side accounts.
REVISIONS AND FEEDBACK
I will send a WIP (‘work in progress’) image after 100% of the payment is completed.
These images will come in the form of .jpg or .png files as an attachment in the DM or an email.
The responsibility is on you to ensure your order contains the details you want me to follow.
I am not responsible for any unsatisfactory element of the finished design if no feedback was given to amend it.
I will only send a guaranteed WIP for the Sketch, but you are free to request a WIP at any given time.
Up to two major revisions can be made during the drafting phase of the commission. Only minor adjustments within reason can be made afterwards.
Each time I send a WIP to a client, I ask the client to provide feedback to me.
Changes will only be made at the sketch and lineart stage. Colour corrections will be made at the colour stage.
Any changes to the character or subject will be subject to a fee, and the fee will depend on the nature of the change.
I will not be held responsible for any changes in ownership of the said character.
After the order is completed, minor changes such as colour adjustments are allowed if the missing or inaccurate elements are my faults (e.g., I overlooked details provided in the order).
In the absence of feedback from the customer, any changes to the final piece will be subject to a fee.
I will not redraw a completed commission unless payment is received for a second order.
FINAL PRODUCT
The commissioner must respect that my artistic style cannot be altered.
I reserve the right to reject critiques pertaining to artistic skill and stylization, and if the critique reduces the artistic quality of the piece.
Credit to me, the Artist, is required when you post or use it on another platform.
You, the Client, are responsible for saving any information, images, and other digital data I provide.
Any file you paid for will be available from me for a finite time only. I take measures to preserve most files for up to 12 months. However, I cannot guarantee against computer failure or accidental deletion or loss.
I am not required to post your project in any public space, and if posted, I am not required to keep it there indefinitely. I have the right to delete or remove any public project, even if you paid for it, as you should have your own copy for personal use.
Feedback of the final product is permitted after completion of the piece, through private messages or comments.
Any comments that are rude, inappropriate, inflammatory, and/or non-constructive may result in blacklisting.
oh hey! you made it!
Here, a flower just for you
