Commission Terms of Service (TOS)

1. Payment Terms:
   • Payment for commissioned artworks is expected to be made upfront in full, or alternatively, clients may choose a half-now, half-later payment structure. For the half-now, half-later option, the initial payment is due before work commences, and the remaining balance is to be paid upon completion and prior to the delivery of the final artwork.
2. Revision Policy:
   • I offer free revisions for commissioned artworks. Clients are entitled to request reasonable adjustments to ensure their satisfaction with the final result. Revisions are subject to reasonable and clear communication.
3. Commercial Use Fee:
   • Commercial use of commissioned artworks is allowed for a fee of $50. This fee grants clients the right to use the artwork for commercial purposes, including but not limited to advertising, merchandise, and promotional materials.
4. Restriction on AI Use:
   • The commissioned artwork is strictly forbidden to be used in any artificial intelligence (AI) applications or technologies. This includes but is not limited to training AI models, integration into AI platforms, or any other AI-related activities.

8. Responsibility for Usage:
   • Clients agree not to use the commissioned character designs to depict illegal acts or participate in proshipping (promotion of inappropriate relationships). Zombiegf, the artist, reserves the right to revoke ownership of the character if such usage is identified.
9. Timeline and Updates:
