Artistic Disclosure & TOS

I understand I am asking for custom art to be created on my behalf. I understand that if a piece outside the budget I requested, I will be contacted & quoted a price for the work. I have the choice of agreeing to the additional fee or changing my request at that time.
I understand that some styles of art are not provided with a sketch for approval. If I do recieve a sketch, I'm allowed to ask for edits up to 3 times before I have to pay for additional edits.
I understand that I am asking the artist to draw things in his way, NOT emulate the artistic style of someone or something else.
I understand that some things (ex: armor, guns, backgrounds, additional characters, difficult-to-parse references) may garner additional fees. I understand that should this be the case, the artist will contact me to discuss it.
I understand that the artist will do his best to complete my work in a timely manner, but that sometimes extra time may be required. I am entitled to updates on the status of my art.
I understand the artist doesn't have spellcheck.
I understand that the artist can choose to reject my request for any reason.
I understand the artist retains the rights to the work I commission as far as display etc unless otherwise negotiated. I am allowed to request that pieces remain private and not be reposted. I am allowed to repost my commissioned artwork, provided I do so without intent to profit off of it or claim it is my own work. Pieces meant for profit may involve additional fees.

Yes, I understand this TOS.

PS! as of 06/2025 the form will give a 504 error BUT STILL WORKS. please just ignore the error! thanks!!
