Commission Slots

[Click here for Slot Status]

3 commission slots will be available.

The status of the commission slots will be set to [OPEN] when I am receiving commission offers.

Slots will be filled in order I receive the commission offers via email.

You will be notified when I accept your commission via email, and the list will be periodically updated.

Once the slots have been filled, the status will change to [CLOSED].  I will not accept any further offers until all 3 commissions have been completed. There is no waiting list.  If all slots are closed, you will have to wait for the next opening.

Payment and Process

Clients should send their commission offer via email to myshrinkingviolet@gmail.com.  Please provide a brief idea of what you have in mind and provide up to 3 reference images.

I will review the commission offer and either accept or decline.

If I accept the offer, an invoice will be sent to the client via email.  Clients must pay for their commission before work can begin. Please do not send me money until I have accepted your commission.

After the payment has cleared, I will begin work on your commission. If you are in line behind other clients, you will be notified when work on your commission has begun.

Once the commission is completed, the client will receive an email containing the finished commission. The Client will not be eligible to ask for a refund after this email is sent.

Terms of Use

You hold rights to your character's IP, but I shall retain these rights to the artwork:

I reserve the right to display the commissioned piece in my portfolio or gallery.

I reserve the right to add my signature or website/gallery URL to any piece.

I may print out commissioned pictures and use them for any reason except to profit off of your character unless we have worked out a specific arrangement beforehand.

Clients may not edit a commission in such a way that it changes the rating or intent of the picture.

Clients may not make bases from my artwork.

Commissions are non-profit only.  Clients may not sell or profit from a piece they commissioned unless we have worked out a specific arrangement beforehand.

So long as credit is given where credit is due*, clients may:

Make icons/banners out of work I have done for you to use on LJ, message boards, etc...
Display art I have done for you on websites/other galleries
Clients may line-art/color sketches I have made for you so long as I am notified and credit is given where credit is due* when they are reposted/used.

*Crediting: You must include a link to my gallery ([link] or [link] somewhere in the description area on the website where it is hosted. LJ and other sites have special places just for this. If you are unsure or unable to credit me properly, you may NOT upload the piece under any circumstance.

Refusing and Cancellations

I do not spend a penny of the money you send until you have been given the final product.

I reserve the right to refuse any commission offer or client for any reason.

From the moment the client sends payment to the moment the piece is completed, the client has the opportunity to cancel the commission. The client may not ask for a refund once the piece is completed.

Refunds will be issued based on the circumstances of the cancellation:

If something comes up that keeps me from starting/completing your commission resulting in its cancellation, you will receive a full refund.

If the client cancels the commission on their OWN behalf, they will receive a refund minus the work put into the commission (if started.) If I have not started, the client gets a full refund.

Harassment or rude behavior may result in my cancelling your commission order and issuing a refund based on the amount of work completed.
