-payment email required for receiving invoice.
-social media handles for proper crediting of commissioned work.

project

-vanpyre_ reserves the right to refuse any project.-vanpyre_ reserves the right to cancel any ongoing project if necessary. (see REFUNDS AND DELIVERY for more information.)-projects are only officially accepted once an invoice has been issued and the full amount of less than $250 usd has been paid OR the 1st payment of the agreed upon payment plan is paid.-the client must provide necessary information, such as character references, pose or composition references, and any other information they deem needed in order for vanpyre_ to begin work. Failing to provide necessary information may cause delay on the delivery of the commission.

payment

-i will not begin work on a commission past the concept phase until full payment is received OR 1st payment of an agreed upon payment plan is received. Payment plans are only accepted for commissions exceeding $250 usd.-payment will be sent through paypal invoices only. prices are listed in usd.-prices listed are a baseline and can fluctuate above the list price based on complexity.-additional fees may apply depending on what the work is intended to be used for.

process

-expect a turnaround time of 1-4 months depending on the scope of the project. simpler illustrations may take 1-2 months while larger projects such as narrative illustrations are likely to take 3-4. This range can vary based on complexity of the order, so please plan accordingly. generally, a sketch will be provided within the first month after initial payment is received.-for all commission types you will receive a sketch for initial approval. If you must request major changes I ask you to do it at this phase.-changes requested after starting line art may incur additional fees, especially if they are adjustments that take more than a few minutes.-in cases where there are small things I have missed, I will change them with no additional charge.(ex. I forgot a character’s earrings or got their eye color wrong.)-for small projects, I generally will not send further work-in-progress shots unless requested, so please feel free to ask!-completed commissions will be sent in their full resolution via google drive link or email unless otherwise specified. In the case of payment plans: completed commission files will only be sent after the final payment on the invoice is fulfilled.

(Exceeding 6 months with no communication.)some leniency is allowed as long as delays in expected project timeline are clearly communicated with the client.
-delivery of a project (project files) may be withheld if payment from client is not fulfilled at the time vanpyre_ has completed the work
