Terms of service altered from the original text found here.

By commissioning the artist, you agree to abide by the following:

​

​

SECTION I. IMAGE COPYRIGHT AND GUIDELINES

1. I, jadefyre, otherwise known in these terms as “the artist”, retain full and exclusive rights to the original artwork. The client may not claim it as their own or distribute it for profit.

2. All commissioned artwork is for noncommercial purpose only. Redistribution of my artwork for use in printed merchandise or as promotion of goods, services or social media pages is prohibited UNLESS expressly confirmed by the artist.

3. Conditions for Reposting 

   • The client has my permission to repost the artwork where they would like, as long as proper credit is given (a link back to this website is preferred) and my watermark/signature remains intact and unaltered.

4. Prohibited Actions

   • Altering my artwork in any way without asking for permission before hand, with the exception of cropping the image for an icon or other use.

   • Using my artwork as references for your own, whether tracing or re-purposing parts of the image UNLESS the piece is specifically commissioned as a base.

5. If these terms are broken, you will be privately blacklisted from commissioning this artist.

SECTION II. PAYMENT INFORMATION

1. I accept up-front payment in USD. All USD payments will be taken via PayPal or Square. 

2. You will have 24 hours after a sketch is shown or a quote is given to decide if you will move forward with the commission.

3. An invoice will be sent to the email you provide and you will have 48 hours to pay after the invoice is received. Non-payment within 48 hours, except where expressly agreed upon between the artist and you, the commissioner, will result in the commission being cancelled. There will be a 24 hour cool down before you may place another order.

4. It is the commissioner’s responsibility to tell me when the payment has been sent. Please contact me via email or through an agreed-upon communication method to make a declaration of payment.

5. Refund Policy

   • If the commission is cancelled (by me or the client) before work has started, then the client will receive a full refund.

   • If the client cancels the commission during progress, the amount refunded will be on a case-by-case basis and up to the artist’s discretion. I do have a rough basis for refunds:

     • Sketch: 90% 

     • Sketch and Color: 65%

     • Line: 50%

     • Line and Flat Color: 0% (Unless shading was included in the commission, then 15%)

   • No refunds will be given for completed or nearly completed commissions.

   • The artist reserves the right to cancel a commission at any time, for any reason, and without explanation.

   • In the event of the above situation, the client will have the choice to receive their partially completed image as well as remaining refund if applicable, or full refund and no image. 

SECTION III. CONTACT AND COMMUNICATION

1. Discussion of commissions can be conducted via email, Tumblr messaging, or Discord (jadefyre#5004).

2. Visual Reference Guidelines

   • Client must provide at least one clear and concise visual reference; please supplement the visual reference with any important information I may need to know to correctly draw the character.

SECTION IV. ALLOWED COMMISSION CONTENT

1. Below is a general guideline for what I will or will not draw. Please contact me to discuss details and exceptions.

2. Allowed Content

   • Human/Humanoids (including alien and anthro characters)

   • Different Body Types

   • Monsters

   • Mecha

   • Original characters and fanart

3. Disallowed Content

   • Graphic NSFW

   • Gore

   • Characters intended to be or appearing underage in any sexual or suggestive context. Attempting to commission underage characters in a sexual or suggestive context will result in your being blocked on social media and being reported to the appropriate authorities.

   • Fetishes (Including fetishistic characters)

   • Any sort of hateful content, including but not limited to discrimination against any race, sexuality, gender, religion, and nationality, and images featuring Nazi/Soviet/extremist imagery or paraphernalia.

SECTION V. WORKFLOW PROCESS

1. I work best when given some artistic freedom to create an image based on the characters you provide. I am happy to match a scene or pose that you have in mind, but please allow and expect some variation.

2. Estimated date to completion: When your commission is accepted, I will add you to my art queue and provide an estimated date of completion. This date is in no way a guarantee and is subject to change at any time. If there are any delays in completion of a commission, I will personally notify you, the client.

   • Completion of most commissions are generally estimated to take no more than roughly 2 to 4 weeks. If for any reason I cannot complete a commission within 90 days of ordering, I will issue a full refund.

3. Works in Progress (WIPs). Certain commission types may or may not include a sketch approval stage. When commissioning, please provide a form of return contact to which I can submit sketches for approval.

4. Revisions and edits. If the commission type includes a sketch approval stage, any major changes or revisions must be made at this stage; this includes any significant changes to a character’s pose or body shape, or redrawing parts of the image.

   • After the sketch has been approved, no major edits or changes will be made. If the commissioner requests additional edits after the approved sketch, a price for the edits may be discussed.

   • If I, the artist, make any errors in the character design, accessories, or any other visual elements specified in the provided visual references, I will make these edits at no additional cost.

5. If you DO NOT want me to post your commission online or stream the commission process, you must tell me BEFORE work starts on the commission.
