Terms of Service

By commissioning me, EbonyTails, you hereby agree and adhere to these Terms of Service. This is all spoken from the artist's perspective, and not the client's.This T.o.S. is directed towards commissioners.
Find my General FAQ here.

I. The Artist

  1. I have the right to refuse a commission for whatever reason.

  2. I am a mentally ill artist, so keep this in mind when commissioning me when it comes to the process or duration. On the other hand, don’t be afraid to ask for updates!

  3. With this in mind, please be open-minded to any changes or differences in my art style compared to the commission examples.

II. Payment

  1. Payments are in $USD and I am using PayPal. I only use invoices.

  2. I only start working on commissions after being paid.

  3. You have the choice to pay either the full price or half up-front.
    If paying only half at first, you will NOT get the final artwork until it’s paid for in full.

  4. Payment is typically requested after the Final Sketch (The Final Draft before starting the rest of the commission). The commissioner may choose to pay beforehand.

  5. Unshaded sketches or colored sketches must be paid up-front.

III. Refunds

  1. A full refund may be issued if I am still at the sketching stage, or haven't started your commission. If any further, we can discuss for partial refunds.

  2. If the commission is over half-way finished, I can not refund you.

IV. Communication

  1. Communication is very important if you want to commission me. Please check your inboxes often! Preferrably either of these options work best:
    Tumblr, Discord, Twitter, E-mail.

  2. Feel free to ask for updates or for when I may be able to finish your commission!

V. Commissions

  1. My prices are flexible. The prices listed are base prices (the minimum amount any commission may cost). The price may rise due to character designs and details in the commission.

  2. I have full credit to the artwork. I have the right to use the commission to promote myself in the future.

  3. All commissions are posted online. Social medias include Tumblr, Twitter, Tiktok, etc. Clients are also tagged (@'d) unless asked to remain anonymous. If you'd prefer to keep the commission private, there is an additional "private commission fee"

  4. Commissions are for personal non-commercial use only. Commissions may be edited, cropped, colored/recolored, printed on personal merch, etc. No selling of my artwork.
    When posting any of these alterations, do not pass it off as your own.

  5. Do not repost my work if it is already posted on your targeted platform. If you are the commissioner, I would prefer if you credited me and linked to any of my socials or this carrd.

  6. After the "Final Sketch", additional revisions may be charged. This will depend on how many, as well how major or minor. If it's a mistake on my part (ex. forgetting a piece of clothing), I will do what it takes to fix them! If there are more than 2-3 changes and edits, I will be charging for them.

  7. I accept deadlines. Commissions are done in their own time to the best of my ability, and may take a week to a month or two depending on my free time and the complexity of the piece. If you would want to implement a deadline and it is too soon, I also implement rush fees depending on the time given.

  8. No visual references means extra fees to compensate.

  9. For tattoos, please describe exactly what you want. Most importantly, give references whenever possible.

  • I do not consent to my art being used for AI Training and for anything related to NFT's. This applies to concept sketches before being paid.


Commission Guide and Process

Preparation

  • When the commission involves literary or auditory sources, please do not send: a vague description, or the chapter/script in its entirety. Please highlight or focus on what scene(s) you are requesting (this includes audio transcripts/scripts).

  • Please provide as many references of your character/s as possible! If you have no visual references, I may add extra charges. If this is fanart, then there are no need for references unless I don't know who the characters are.

  • Tell me what Style you’d like me to draw in. If you aren't sure, or there’s a specific drawing I did that caught your attention, please show me which one!

  • Give specifics you have in mind (expressions, poses, etc.) unless you want to leave it up to me (please say so)!

It's Ebonytails the Caracal, giving a thumbs up to the viewer! There's a speech bubble next to them with the words "YOU GOT THIS!"

The Process™

  • First,you may contact me via my socials: Tumblr, Twitter, e-mail, ToyHouse, or Discord.

  • After contacting me, you need to give a clear description of what you’d like. Tell me if you need a deadline, if this commission is private, or has an upload schedule. Additionally, please tell me if you want your piece to be transparent or have a minimal background (1-2 Flat colors, a gradient, etc.). These minimal backgrounds are free.

  • I will show you a sketch that you and I can get right. We can edit this as much as needed because the final sketch is what I will start lining and coloring.

  • Once it’s to your liking, you need to either pay half the price or pay the full amount up front. The sketching phase is the only time you can make changes without additional fees being added.

  • Please try to settle all the corrections and feedback before we agree on the sketch being okay! I will not correct an already finished artwork unless I offer [only minor changes].

  • You will receive an invoice from me sent to your e-mail (please provide the e-mail you wish me to send the invoice to).

  • This e-mail is the same e-mail I will send the finished products to when finished, unless you provide me with a different one!

STYLE 1

This is the "default" style I draw in. It tends to be a mix of realistic and cartoony. This style is subject to minor changes and differences. Let me know if there is a specific piece I did that caught your attention!"Sketchy" means that I won't draw line art for it. I will still tidy it and clean up minor construction marks.
"Clean" means that I will draw line art for it. No construction marks. This also takes me longer because of the polish needed.

  • If you have any questions, have a specific idea in mind that doesn't fall under any of these options, or just aren't sure how much it might cost to draw out your idea, feel free to contact me to ask! I may make a customized price for you, or direct you to a specific commission I offer.

Add-ons are rounded up
to remove decimals.


+ SIMPLE BACKGROUND

These are backgrounds that come after the main part of the illustration's concept, so they assist the subject(s) of the drawing, but they are not the focus.In other words: they're not too detailed, and the main subject may even be isolated from the background without the point of the artwork being heavily affected.

+ $5 Minimum

Wheel of Fortune

A mix of "Experimental", "Pay What You Want", and "Full Artistic Freedom".Send in a reference and include a prompt or information about your character of choice! This may include infodumping, moodboards, and playlists as an example.

  • The piece will always be colored in some way.

  • Whether or not it is a bust or full-body is randomized unless specified by the client. This will affect the price!

  • The style and pose is also randomized!

  • While we will be referencing your prompt and ideas, we will not be accepting changes/revisions unless they are minor, such as color changes or forgetting patterns, etc.

  • The final piece will depend on how much your character appeals to us, the vibe for the day, and who is fronting. Adding on top of the $30 will also affect this. A lot of how the Wheel of Fortune Works is paying us for our time; using the idea of "$ per hour" as well as using Style 1 prices as a vague reference.

  • The price may also raise depending on the complexity of your character.

  • Remember that this is all about giving us the artistic freedom with your character/prompt! Wheel of Fortune!
