Such major changes can be discussed but an additional fee might apply.Skeb type commissions do not include revisions.

Communication

The commissioner will receive a sketch for revision, once the sketch is approved the rest of the commission will be continued.Please note that this does not apply for 'Skeb like' commissions, where the drawing is completely decided by the artist.The WIP updates will be one during the sketch approval phase, and one after the finished lineart and color planning phase so client can have idea of what the finished render might look like.The commissioner will also receive instant updates as fast as possible in case a situation that may affect the commission process comes up, such as an emergency.Communication over platforms (VGen, Ko-Fi) or Email is preferred for organization but if social media DMs are preferred, then they can be used.Please be mindful of time zones, as there may be a delay between your messages and mine depending on the time of the day.Final deliveries will be through the preferred communication platforms or email and the files will be uploaded to a file transfer service like Google Drive.

Q&A

Q: What programs do you use?

I use Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop. Occasionally, I may use PaintTool SAI!

Q: What brand of drawing tablet do you use?

Tablet model: XP-Pen Deco Pro SWBackup: HUION 1060 Plus+ (8192)

Q: Do you record your drawing process?

Unfortunately, the machine I currently use for drawing does not have the capacity to handle screen recording without provoking awful lag. I have set up a goal on my Ko-Fi to get a better PC. I love speedpaints and I would be very happy to record the process!For space and same reasons as above, this also includes the recording option within CPS - it just kills my poor laptop. 😰

Q: Do you draw full time?

I was caught in recent lay offs at my previous company and am looking for something new. In the meantime, I am taking commissions to sustain myself until I find something more stable.So yes, let's say that art is something I now do full time. :)

Q: I've contacted in the past and was in wait list, what happened?

IRL happened! The worst burn out I've experienced, which made me re-shift my priorities at the time and where I took a step back from social media and art. Considering how there have been plenty of improvements to the art world with new platforms and tools that make organization much better, I want to do my best to do things properly this time around.
If you were in a wait list before and are still interested, please reach out to me directly or via VGen so we can arrange something out.
I appreciate the patience a lot of people have had with me, and I hope to do things right this time and most importantly, with love for art! I don't ever want to break that again!!!
