Terms of Service

This page contains my TOS as an Artist. Anyone commissioning or working with me is Agreeing to this TOS.
Artwork/Process Terms
I reserve the right to refuse an order, especially if I/my work are disrespected or being asked to create something hateful.
I reserve the right to change these terms at any time, for any reason.
I have the right to blasklist anyone from my services at any time. My blacklist is not kept public.
I do not have the responsibility to provide compensation to people who buy stolen or scammed designs or pieces from me. My ONLY socials I take commissions on are my instagram cryptid.kennel and my Discord, cryptid.kennel, and BlueSky cryptid-kennel.bsky.social. Anyone else is NOT me.
I reserve the right to take a hiatus upon being injured, sick, having a family, pet or medical emergency, or a family/friend passing.
I accept Payment via Cashapp.
My turn around time may vary between a few weeks - a few months. Please reach out to me if I’ve missed you in Queue.
You may not distribute or sell my artwork without permission/notification. In terms of art being used for merch, redistribution, etc. In these cases the commercial rights to do so must be purchased.
If you request a refund before or during the sketch stage you will receive it, but not be permitted to use the sketch. However, once the lineart stage has been started I do not offer any refunds.
You may edit or revise my designs if purchased via adopt or custom design. you do NOT have to commission me to do so, but you may. (Changes during initial order for Custom Designs is free.)
All orders for artwork must provide CLEAR, DIGITAL refrence sheets. References of any other media or verbal description will procure a service fee.
ALL of my pieces are an up front payment. I only offer payment plans for high AB adoptable designs and Reference Sheets or Bundles.
Changes during the sketching or lineart stage will be free, but any major changes to lineart or onward will be an additional service fee in order to execute.
If you need your commission rushed then there is a $15-35 rush fee based on the piece to do so with me.
I reserve the right to work on personal pieces while/during my commission queue. This not only allows me to warm up, but also ensure I don’t hit burnout while working on paid pieces.
Crediting / Usage Terms

If you did not commission/recieve the Artwork then you may not use, repost, or share my artwork without my Permission and Credit, unless it is a Fan Art piece for a Fandom. However, I must still be Credited.
I Reserve the right to use your commissioned Artwork for my Benefit. This is through Commission Examples, Sharing on my Social Media, Potential Merch, etc. There are minor Exceptions to this.
