Discussion
We’ll discuss your ideas, possibilities, and finalize pricing based on your needs. I send up to 5 simplified sketches which you can use as reference when asking for revision or something entirely different. References are especially welcome, you can also use my past works as material for me to refer to.Process
After we've decided on the concept the full payment is made and I'll start working. I will update you at key stages: line art, flat colors, shading, and finishing touches, you may also ask for updates at other time. Refund is only eligible during line art and flat colors (see Terms of Service). After the line art phase, I offer a few free major revisions; I’ll let you know in advance if any further revisions may involve an extra fee.Completion
I'll let you know the expected completion time based on commission. There's no specific deadline unless when it's a Rush Order (see Add-ons).
The final artwork will be delivered per Email or Google Drive unless requested otherwise.I may post your commission on my social media with a watermark. If you'd prefer it to remain private, you can opt for a privacy add-on.
