General Commission Policy + Revision Policy

● Please understand that I do NOT do rush orders, nor I do I do any hard deadlines unless it is within a reasonable time frame. Neither my schedule nor my work speed on commissions is consistent, but I will do my best to make progress at a good pace, and I will try to give updates on a reasonable basis.

● Any random donations will not be refunded.

● For Ko-Fi commissions, purchase options are locked, and I will not unlock the purchase option UNTIL we have agreed on the commission. This is to prevent random orders being placed without me receiving prior notice.

● I reserve the right to reject commission requests for any reason I see fit.

● Please do NOT solicit me for favors outside of the commission or be awkward with me.

● I will NOT accept AI generated images as references.

● If you intend to use a commission for commercial purposes (ie. using the commission on merchandise), PLEASE disclose that first before we go through with the commission for Ko-Fi commissions, or for VGen commissions, select the Commercial License add-on (extra fee). I will NOT draw licensed characters if the commission will be used commercially.

● Commercial rights are not inherently included with any commission, unless it is stated in the description otherwise.

● Do NOT use any of my art - be it a commission or my own personal art - for commercial use without paying the commercial fee. If caught, I will request that the commercial fee be paid, either in full or in a payment plan. I will not allow you to use it commercially until the commercial fee is paid off. Failure to comply will result in a block, blacklist, a payment dispute, and/or in the worst case scenario, a potential public call out.

● Do NOT resell any character designs / any adoptables purchased for a price HIGHER than the price you paid. You ALSO will need to have commercial rights and notify me beforehand.

● For personal use (e.g. using the commission as your profile pic, banner, reposting it on your social media page, etc.), you MUST credit me with the handle @bigmanskeeter, unless I give you permission.

● For skeb style commissions, there are two options: I will have full artistic direction over the commission, but you get to receive WIPs, OR you give me the exact details of what you want, and you will not receive any updates. Please inform me if you are not ok with any suggestive themes (swimwear/lingerie/etc) for surprise me-style commissions.

● Obviously, any commissions relating to two characters depicted romantically beyond holding hands or hugging, they must be at least canonically 18 years or older. No exceptions.

● I reserve the right to post the finished commission on my Twitter/X, Blue Sky, Ko-Fi, or other social media platforms, and I reserve the right to stream working on the commission unless requested not to, or a complete nondisclosure agreement (NDA) is paid for.

● For OCs, please provide a reference image. Character design is a separate listing altogether, since it will involve more personalization and revisions than a regular commission.

● Do NOT use my art for AI training or NFTs, or use any AI image manipulation on them. This is regardless of whether or not you purchased commercial rights.

Revision Policy

● Major revisions during the sketch phase are unlimited and free.

● Major revisions include changing the pose drastically, changing head position, changing where the characters are positioned, changing the outfit completely, etc.

● Amount of major revisions vary between each listing type.

Things I Will NOT Draw

● Mecha

● Gore

● Real people, especially minors (I will NOT draw your children). I will give the pass for this rule IF and ONLY IF you are a content creator (streamer or youtuber only) who shows your face as your online persona, and are at least 18 years of age or older.

Payment Policy

For Ko-Fi:
● All payment is due upfront after we agree on the commission.
● For commissions or shop items $70 or higher, payment plans are an option. We will discuss the payment installments and how it will be divied up. If you wish to proceed with a payment plan, a $10 down payment is required, plus an additional $2 commitment fee (both are non-refundable).
● Note, payment installments are done in either installments of 2 or 4. I will not provide the finalized piece until you can fully pay off the commission.

For VGen:
● Once I accept the commission request, all payment is due upfront.
● For commissions $30 or higher, I can offer payment plans, BUT you must notify me beforehand.

Refund Policy

- A full refund can only be issued if you wish not to proceed past the sketch provided.
- A partial refund (up to 50%) can be issued if you wish to cancel at any time past that, and the percentage will decrease the further along I am with the commission. No refunds can be issued once rendering is completed.
- No refunds after the commission is complete.
- If I decide I cannot personally complete the project, I will issue a full refund.

For payment plans on Ko-Fi, you will be required to make a $10 nonrefundable down payment and a $2 nonrefundable commitment fee. While you can cancel at any time, each payment installment that had already been made is nonrefundable.

Art Usage Policy

● Under no circumstances will I approve AI training off my art. Ever.

● Tracing my PERSONAL art as an art study is OKAY, ONLY if you do not post it. Do NOT trace commissioned art, whatsoever.

● Do NOT put any of my art, commission or personal, on merchandise unless you have purchased commercial rights!

● You are free to use my PERSONAL art as reference, but if you heavily reference it, PLEASE credit me with the handle @bigmanskeeter

● Please do not use any commissioned art that you didn't commission from me for heavy references, thank you!

● You are free to repost my personal and commission art as long as credit is given with the handle @bigmanskeeter. Profile pic usage requires credit - you can use my PERSONAL art, but not commissioned art that you did not commission from me. BANNER usage will require credit.
