Terms of Service
for private commissions

General Terms

  • Prices are subject to change based on demand. 

  • I have the right to reject any order for any reason.

Payment

  • Currency accepted is USD, EUR or CZK and can be paid through PayPal or Czech payment service (bank transfer)

  • Commissions are paid 50% upfront and 50% after sketch approval.

  • Don’t send me any payment before I have accepted your commission and requested you to send me the payment.

Process and delivery

  • The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week – 2 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece or unexpected events. 

  • Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image along with a web-friendly size. Note that there is no physical product. (if not specified otherwise) I can help you with the printing process in your local printing shop or your printer. Just ask 🙂

Revisions

  • You get 3 rounds of possible changes on the commissioned piece included in the price.

  • A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing – unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.

  • If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.

  • Sketch and/or final sketches that you must accept before I continue the work

  • Insight and involvement in color plan (depending on the complexity of the commissioned piece)
