COMMISSIONS SHEET
As a general rule, lineart will be made TRADITIONALLY, colours DIGITALLY. If you wish for a fully digital piece, lineart included, just tell me! Just keep in mind that my lineart is better traditionally.
I don't do traditional colours, because I'm baaad at them.Each piece will be made on 100lbs paper - depending on the type you choose, it will be either an A5 or an A4. Ink is from Sakura Micron pens and brush pens, and will be minimally fixed digitally if needed.I will post the finished product on social medias only if you want, and where you want.
If you give me full permission, I will post it on ArtStation, Tumblr and Instagram.
At the moment I cannot send you the original drawing directly via mail, BUT! I will keep your drawing with care, so that when I'll be able to, I will send it to you in the future!
I might require you to pay at least a part of the shipping cost.
I ALWAYS have the right to refuse your commission, and I'm under to obligation to tell you my motives.
if i say no, then it's no.
I accept payment only through Paypal.
When I receive your commission, I will make the sketches needed to start the work: when you will be satisfied with them, I will ask for the payment before continuing with the rest of the drawing. I require you to pay the entire amount in one go. From there, I will finish your commission as soon as I can, and I'll deliver it to you!
To make your commission, I will need a few things from you! In the message you send me requesting your drawing, please include:
- what type of commission you wish to have.
- a description of the illustration you are asking me to draw you. It can be as vague as "I'd like x character(s), I'll leave the rest to you", or as detailed as you'd like. It includes a description of the background if you wish something specific.
- references! Both of original characters AND canon characters, as the reference I might find for myself might not be the one you're interested to see in your illustration, and eventually of the background as well. You don't need to send me an entire folder of them, but at least a couple would be great! This point is especially important for original characters: even simple dress-up games references are totally fine, but I do need something. I do NOT accept only descriptions, though they can be a good addendum to your references.
what i will and won't draw
I am quite comfortable with drawing pretty much anything, so don't hesitate to ask me about your idea! Yet, there are things that will get an immediate no from me. I will NOT draw:
- satire, political stuff, racist and offensive stuff, and everything else that is part of this genre;
- original characters without a proper reference (once again, a few dress-up game generated ones are absolutely fine! But I do need them!);
- sexual content, assault, incest, pedophilia and fetish art;
- body horror past a certain extent (hanahaki disease and soft body horror I can draw, but heavier stuff like spilled organs are an absolute no-no for me).
contact
I'm available for contact via e-mail and via instagram's private messages. Tumblr is also a valid alternative, but being the site often glitching your message might get lost or I might not get notified of it.

I answer as soon as I can. Because of in real life commitments and happenings, it might take me a bit of time to get back at you - if it happens, I assure you I am not ignoring your messages, I'm just busy!If I don't reply within five days, try sending the message again - I might have missed it, not be notified, or the first one might have got lost, especially on Tumblr.
