Please plan your launches and streams accordingly.
There may be 2 major revision(s) for each item shown during the process, not including mistakes made by the Artist. Revision later in the process such as after line art can only be minor. I will actively reach out for feedback.
Additional charge may be required for further revisions that may impact the progress and timeline of the project.
Delivery of finished Work will be through Mail, Drive link.CommunicationCommunication will take place throughout the entire project timeline with updates and bouncing ideas. I will typically ask for feedback when I have something to show. I will let you know if anything is causing delays or priority shifts in the project.
I will use twitter DM to facilitate communications. I will typically respond quickly but may also take up to one week, which is usually in order to provide a better, more concrete, update. I can use discord and email as a communication too.

Commercial licenses require additional charges on a case-by-case basis or as listed in the commission information. We should have a separate conversation about this.
Clients may not claim Work as their own or anyone else’s and therefore must credit me as the Artist using my social tag/username/link (zaydale).Payments, Cancellation, RefundsThe Client pays in full (after the sketch) up to $200 value projects.

When invoice or payment link is received, the Client agrees to pay within 72 hours unless circumstances are communicated otherwise in advance, or the project/waitlist position may be cancelled by the Artist.Once Work begins, refunds are not possible unless initiated by the Artist. If you ask for refund after the sketch is done and approved i will refund only 50% and use the sketch on another commission.
If for any unforeseen reason I cannot complete the Work or the Work is significantly delayed by 4 months, I will take initiative to inform you and provide a partial refund if Work done up to this point is accepted or full refund.
Prices may change depending on complexity of the commission.By engaging on any project, once Work has started, or transactions have been made through or any payment service provider, the Client acknowledges the product and deliverables are DIGITAL and there is no physically shipped good to receive.
