Please be patient; I will reach out via email or text if there is a delay on my end.Commissions may take longer if the project scope is very large, or there are substantial revisions. However this will be dually agreed upon before the commission is started.PaymentA 25% minimum deposit is required for commission to begin.
(If you have already paid in full, this does not apply)
I will deliver 2 in-progress shots: 1 upon receipt of 25% down payment (sketch phase), and 1 upon receipt of 75% payment.Full payment is required 30 days following delivery of the 75% in-progress screenshot.

PSD, JPEG, etc) will be withheld until such time as the payment is made in full.RevisionsRevision requests can be made during the sketch phase for no additional charge.2-3 small requests for revisions can be made at the 75% payment stage, but large revisions may incur additional fees.Revisions requested after delivery of the final payment and artwork will incur additional fees.What you receiveA digital copy of the commission in JPEG or PNG format.
