Commissions in a Nutshell
Step 1: The Client shall submit the commission form for hammering out price and details. If accepted, they will receive a PayPal Draft Invoice for 50% of the total cost. Upon payment receipt, draft work begins.
Step 2: Draft work is sent to the Client to verify where moderate revisions are accepted.
Step 3: When the work is completed, a watermarked sample is sent to the Client to evaluate. If approved, a Final PayPal Invoice will be sent, after which, the completed work will then be sent upon full payment.
Work is done at approx. 8,000 x 8,000px at 300dpi (adjusted for scene). The client receives cropped full-size and smaller web-post-sized images. For paper works: If you'd like the original to be mailed, that's negotiable!
For Streams: Client attendance for raffle phase and negotiation of form and payment is mandatory. Attendance during the work phase is not mandatory, however, it is encouraged that the Client attends the stream as best they can to evaluate work process. In most cases Client will only receive a final review if absent. For any control over the Client's commission's edits, barring sent WIPs, they will have to be present in the stream. Edits can be made if the Artist misses a detail that is clearly present in the presented references, or commission description.
* I do not accept "phoned-in" entry into raffles; You are either in-stream as an available participant, or not participating.
* I do not accept winners passing their commission form and billing to other entities. If you wish to know if your situation partnered on an idea with another is fair or doable, ask and I will judge.

Conversely, the topics I tend to avoid (ask also if curious and not seen here):

Political or protest subjects
Slob or Bimbo depictions
Merging
Hard Vore / Disposal
Violent Rape
Humans
Kemonomimi or other human-analogous characters

Excessive Fetishizing (Uber Hyper, Muscle, Multi, Galaxy-Macro, etc.)
Revenge/gore/C&BT/torture porn
* Holidays and Birthdays as Super-Last-Minute Occasions (I don't do rush work)
* Regarding Hyper, Muscle and Multifurry, and fetishes of the sort: While I can accept these in more conservative moderation, these can get extensively ambitious and complicated on higher tier commissions and I am more likely to avoid ideas including these.
