Terms of Service

(Updated on 3/3/2024, GMT+8)
By commissioning me, you have understood and accepted the terms below.

1. COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY

THE ARTIST:
• I, Kai (the artist), retain all rights to the commissioned artworks, including but not limited to distribution, reproduction, self-promotion, uploading on social media sites, commission samples, etc.
• Commissioned artworks will include a subtle watermark.
• I might record the drawing process and post it on social media.
• I have the right to decline any commission request I do not feel comfortable drawing.
• Prices are subject to change based on demand.
• The Terms of Service are subject to change at any time. The updated terms will not apply retroactively and will have no bearing on commissions placed under previous terms.
THE CLIENT:
• The commissioned artworks are strictly for personal use only.
• Uploading the commissioned artworks on social media must include credit to the artist.
• Do not distribute, reproduce, or profit from the commission in all forms. Personal prints are allowed.
• The client cannot claim the art as their own.
• For original characters, the client can claim the character(s) as their own but not the artwork itself.
• Using the commissioned piece on their YouTube channel and monetized videos are allowed as long as the artwork is not the main subject for the earnings.
• Using the commissioned piece in any blockchain technology, such as NFTs, is prohibited.
• Removing the watermark or altering the commissioned artwork is not allowed.
• Any usage related to artificial intelligence or AI is strongly prohibited. 🚫

2. PAYMENT

• Pay the commission through an invoice via PayPal in USD ($) currency or through Ko-fi by sending a donation. Please confirm the transaction/receipt if the payment is on-hold.
• Clients in the Philippines may opt to pay the commission via GCash or Maya in PHP (₱).
• Pay upfront (50% or 100%) after the sketch approval. The remaining 50% will follow after the final artwork.
• Failure to settle the full payment will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece, including sketches, drafts, and progress screenshots.
• No refund once I started working on the commission.

3. PROCESS

• Submit a commission form then contact me via email. (See info page)
• Please provide multiple visual references and detailed descriptions of the character(s). A pose reference is required. I will not accept a commission with insufficient references and unclear character descriptions.
• I am only able to handle one commission at a time to prevent myself from getting overwhelmed.
• First come, first served. I will work on commissions according to slot number/waitlist. You may opt to cancel your commission order while you are on the waitlist.
• Commissions may take 2 to 5 weeks to complete depending on the complexity and other factors that may affect my working condition. Expect some delays because I'm busy during weekdays.
• I will let you know if anything happens that will slow the commission's progress.
• A maximum of two major (2) revisions is allowed in the sketch and line art stage and one (1) major revision in coloring. If I make a mistake on my end, I will apply changes free of charge.
• While working on your commission, I might keep asking for feedback and reviews.
• I will send the finished commission in a full-resolution image (.PNG) file via email or Google Drive. It will not include the working file (.CSP or .PSD).
