Before you order, please make sure to have read my Terms of Service. These terms apply to private commissions only. This information is NOT applicable for commercial work, therefore the art can only be used for the client’s personal purposes. The only exception to this is emotes.

All prices below are base prices. Things that might increase the price are complex character designs, number of characters, not being able to provide a good visual reference, complex backgrounds and amount of detail in the image in general.

Terms of Service

If you have a problem with any of these terms, there are plenty of other artists who you can talk to.

GENERAL TERMS

  • All drawings may or will include a subtle signature or logo that you may not remove.

  • I might record the drawing process and post it on social media or draw it live on Twitch.

  • Prices are subject to change based on demand.

  • I have the right to reject any order that I do not feel comfortable drawing for any reason.

PAYMENT

  • Currency accepted is exclusively USD through Paypal or Ko-fi.

  • Commissions are paid 100% upfront ONLY.

  • Payment is due within 1 week of me accepting your commission, otherwise, your order will be canceled.

  • Don't send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot and requested you to send me the payment.

PROCESS AND DELIVERY

  • I will notify you when I have started on your commission and you, therefore, lose the rights to a refund (see point 7 further below for more info on refunds)

  • While I'm working on your commission I will make reviews with you at each step to make sure I make it just right for you!

  • During the reviews, you will see work-in-progress and these images will usually include a watermark.

  • The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week - 3 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece, and other work.

  • If anything comes up that will slow the progress of the initially estimated delivery time I will let you know asap.

  • Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image along with a web-friendly size. Note that there is no physical product.

REVISIONS

  • You get 3 rounds of changes on the commissioned piece included in the price up through the flats phase.

  • A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.

  • If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.

  • If your reference is unclear to start with changes will come at an extra charge.

COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY

I, May Ravenheart/Briar Star, claim the rights to the produced drawing, not the buyer. Therefore I am allowed to use the copyrighted artwork to:

  • Promote myself with it everywhere

  • Publish books with it (artbooks, etc.)

  • Display it everywhere to my liking (website, social media, etc.)

  • Post it wherever and whenever I want

  • I reserve the full rights to the image and it's use/distribution unless otherwise agreed upon (rights to the image for your own non-personal use may be purchased at any time).

The buyer is allowed to:

  • Use the commissioned piece for personal use unless agreed otherwise (you can upload it on all your social media profiles, forums, etc.)

  • Print the artwork and claim the character(s) as their own, but not the artwork itself.

  • Use the artwork to promote themselves. You are not forced to give me credit when you post it but it is very appreciated.

  • Use the artwork on their Youtube/Twitch channel and in monetized videos as long as the artwork itself is not the main subject for the earnings.

The following is considered copyright infringement:

  • Reproducing/using the copyrighted artwork commercially - means making money off it in any way.

  • Claiming the artwork as your own

  • Removing my signature from the artwork

REFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY

The buyer is not allowed a refund once I started working on the commission.

If for any reason I am unable to start your commission you will receive a full refund.

If you are getting a refund, do not request a Paypal chargeback. I will transfer the money back to you myself.

If you request a Paypal chargeback at any point when you were not allowed to ask for a refund you will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece and I will have the full right to profit further from it in any way. I will decline the chargeback and supply Paypal with our conversations in which we talk about the commission as evidence that I have completed work for you. Furthermore, you will be blacklisted for commissioning me again.

If the buyer breaks any of the points stated above they will lose all the beforementioned rights to the artwork commissioned by me, Briar Star, and I will have the right to profit further from the commissioned artwork in any way I see fit.

What do you get?

Drafts/mockups that you must decide which one I should continue with (depending on the complexity of the commission there might be fewer or more drafts)

Sketch and/or final sketches that you must accept before I continue the work

Insight and involvement in color plan (depending on the complexity of the commissioned piece)

Full-resolution file of the final drawing. Final file formats are usually PNG.
