✦ Crediting

  • When crediting, you may use @Vinnybox or @Vinnybox02 depending on the social platform (or ask if unsure).

  • Explicit credit must be given especially if you wish to repost your commission on other platform.

  • Do not take credit of my art work or try to pass it off as your own.

✦ Workflow/Timeframe

  • After commission detail is discussed, and payment is made, I will start on the commission and share progress whenever possible. (Feel free to ask for progress or updates. I'll try to keep you updated if I run into anything that will slow down the commission.)

  • The completion time could take from within 1 week to 2 months or more depending on amount of work. Time frame may extend, especially if I have a busy schedule from university classes, personal life, mental and physical health. Please commission only if you know you are okay with possibility of waiting for longer periods of time.

  • Please respect my decision to put my mental/physical health and education before commission work.

  • If you feel I've taken too long to complete a commission, please feel free to DM me for a refund and we can discuss the details🙏.

✦ Payment

  • I only accept USD ($) currency. An invoice will be sent through your email with Stripe after confirmation. (PayPal and Kofi can also be used if Stripe doesn't work for you, but Stripe is my main place for accepting payments.)

  • Extra fees are charged at artist's discretion.

  • Payment are upfront, but if there's any emergencies that makes you unable to pay right away or after, do let me know!

  • Partial payment or payment plans can be made for commissions over $100.

  • I do not accept cryptocurrency or any form of blockchain as payment.

✦ REVISIONS & ediTS

  • During the drafting process, you are limited to 3 MAJOR REVISIONS (pose overhaul, entire composition, character change, etc). Once approved, only small changes can be made without charging fees from here onward as I move on to cleaning up/finalizing the commission.

  • Clients are more than welcome to request small edits/fixes or red line each WIP screenshot sent to you.

  • The extra fee for changes to completed artwork will depend on how much is being changed. I will not redo an art piece from scratch once it is completed.

  • Minor edits or fixes from my own errors for finished artwork are free. Pose change, adding/removing large props, or any heavier edits will have an extra fee or will be declined.

  • You may request edits freely while I'm streaming commission done on Twitch or Discord stream.

  • Extremely excessive or random requests could be charged to compensate for my time spent on making changes or adhering to these requests.

✦ References

  • Make sure to have visual references or images ready before commissioning! Any links, Toyhouse, Google Drive or other viable source should work!

  • If there are multiple outfits or appearances for the character, please specify which version you would like.

  • Mood or aesthetic boards are more than welcome to help with nailing down the character's personality and aesthetics. I also encourage you to describe the character's personality so I can try to get a feel of the character.

✦ Other notes

  • I will most likely refuse commissions with characters from fandoms I'm unfamiliar with. (List of fandoms I know)

  • You can only request suggestive-themed commission if you are an adult (18+ only). If you lie about your age, you will be blacklisted.

  • As my style is very flexible, if you want a specific style of mine (i.e., More or less Cartoony.) please specify. Otherwise, I will default to my more realistic style with some stylization

✦ REFUNDS

  • No refunds after commission is completed.

  • Partial refunds are made depending on progress of commission.

✦ Rush fee/Deadlines (AKA Speedrun option)

  • An extra fee of +25% will be charged if you want me to complete a piece within your chosen deadline.

✦ General rules

  • DON'T take / claim credit for my designs.

  • DON'T make a carbon copy / steal designs you haven't obtained from me. (Being inspired is fine.)

  • OPTIONAL: Keep the character accessible to me via Toyhouse if possible! If you want to keep character private, please have me authorized so I can easily keep track of designs. It's not a requirement, but I like revisiting designs to see how they've been. <3


✦ USage

  • Feel free to use characters in comics, roleplay, as persona/fursona, etc, as long as you credit me for the original/initial design.

  • ELABORATING PREVIOUS POINT: You can make fucked up fictional characters with toxic or problematic traits, but I don't feel comfortable if my characters are to be used to portray anything relating to grooming, pedophilia, necrophilia, incest, rape, or zoophilia. Generally, include dark/heavy themes at your discretion and handle them appropriately.

  • Any use relating to kinks and fetishes is none of my business.


✦ Redesigning
