II. PAYMENT
A. If a commission is under $10 then payment must be paid before or right after the sketch has been made.
NOTICE: If using ko-fi as your payment method, full payment is needed as soon as you order from my commission section on the ko-fi website unless you choose the "Buy a Coffee" option instead.
B. The currency accepted is USD (soon I will be setting up an amazon wish list where you, the client, can gift an item that is the same monetary value as the commission you are ordering. Example: If your commission is $10, then choose a $10 item from my Amazon Wish list)
C. The methods I use are PayPal, CashApp, Venmo, Facebook Pay and Ko-fi (Coming Soon: Amazon Wish list)
III. PROCESS
A. Work In Progress will only be given if the commissioner personally asks for it and if the price exceeds $10

C. Alterations are allowed to be made in two instances: Both during the sketching stage and the flat color stage
The time for your commission to be completed can take up to 1 month depending on many factors such as;
Health, order of commission, complexity, Work, school, or family issues. If a road block happens, I will let you know as to not leave you in the dark.
If any of the above occurs, I will let you know ASAP as to not leave you in the dark.
IV. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
A. I will do everything I can to make my customers happy.
B. However after a commission is finished, only small changes are allowed to be made.
C. Such as small coloring, marking mistakes, sparkles, simple background changes, small outfit additions/subtractions, etc. Anything larger will cost more as alterations were allowed during both sketch and flat color stages and I would then have to redraw entire sections.
If your reference was unclear to start with, then you are not allowed to do minor changes without a $5 fee.
Make sure to be clear in your order what you aim for to avoid this fee.
