COMMISSIONS ARE CLOSED

Howdy! I'm just a little hobbyist!I don't bite, and I appreciate strong communication between myself and everyone I work with.
It just makes things go easier!
The best way to get in touch with me is through
Toyhouse, Tumblr, or Twitter!

Terms of Service

Commissions

By doing business with me, you automatically agree to the following terms, as they are clearly, plainly linked with all sale advertisements.
Failure to follow my terms can and/or will result in anything up to and including permanent, public Blacklisting.
These terms are subject to periodic updates and adjustments as time goes on.

General

  • All prices displayed in any listing will be in USD unless advertised otherwise.

  • I reserve the right to decline, cancel, and/or refund a commission for whatever reason at any time.

  • You must be 18 years or older to commission me. I will be checking socials to verify, and I will decline your order if you cannot provide proof of age. My apologies!

  • All items are Digital Goods, meaning that nothing will be shipped.

  • You must notify me if you change Usernames or Accounts in the middle of a transaction (trade, purchase, or otherwise), so we can continue communication. I am not responsible for refunds in the case that I cannot find you after a change of this nature.

  • Once the Commission is finished and delivered, you are solely responsible for keeping up with the files. I may or may not still have them at a later date, so please responsibly back-up your commissioned pieces.

  • I retain the rights to the art I create, including for use in but not limited to: portfolio work, commission examples, promotional examples, etc.

  • I require clear, verbal confirmation and communication in any and all transactions. Please confirm that you have sent payment, that you are ok with the contents of a trade and/or purchase, and confirm closure of transactions. A simple "thank you!" or "ok!" is all I'm looking for. I will not accept read-recipts as confirmation (dA Notes, Twitter, etc.) I will, however, accept Transfer notifications on ToyHouse as confirmations in trades.

WIP's + Edits

  • I'll provide WIPs (Work In Progress updates) for work! I will only provide WIPs for Sketches and Lineart stages unless otherwise requested. (WIPs are unavailable for certain commission types.)

  • I won't continue moving forward with a commission until I receive feedback or approval for a WIP.

  • I will also do edits! The Sketch stage is where I can do the largest edits the easiest. I'll do any minor editing and one entire re-sketch (drastic pose change, character change, etc.) free of charge, but if you want another entire re-sketch I will charge an additional fee equivalent to another sketch commission.

  • ---- Minor edits + 1 entire re-sketch (pose change, character change, etc.) are free at this stage within reason. (Sketch-Commissions are exempt from this regarding full re-sketches. Instead, they'll cost 1/2 base-price the first time, and then full-price for any additional re-sketches.)

  • ---- Additional re-sketches for Non-Sketch Commissions will incur a fee equal to another base-price Sketch Commission. (ex: If you order a FB colored sketch, you'll only pay the base price and not the colored price.)

  • I can only do small edits after I finish lining and begin coloring.

Usage

  • Any art I create is only for My use and the Commissioner's use. If obtained through a character transfer, Customer Usage rights transfer with it (i.e. the original buyer no longer has permission to use the commissioned work)

  • Art of mine obtained through character transfers still must abide by these terms.

  • My art is for personal, non-commercial use only. (i.e. don't sell on RedBubble, Society6, Etsy, etc. IF you're looking for commercial-use work I'm more than willing to talk it out, but I might still decline in the end.) "Not for Commercial Use" includes Promotional Material for Commercial Projects, like Comics or Games.

  • Do Not claim my art as your own.

  • Do Not Redistribute or Edit my art in any way without my explicit permission. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • ---- Attempting to relocate or remove my signature or any watermarks present.

  • ---- Cropping a signature or watermark out of an image (personal use as Icons and Backgrounds are fine)

  • ---- Reposting my work without proper credits.

  • You can upload any commission you get from me on ToyHouse or other character database sites with proper credit! If you're using ToyHouse, credit me as an On-Site artist as MiiNiiRU; otherwise, provide clearly visible credit.

  • I do NOT allow my art/designs to be used for NFT's or in AI Training, commissioned or not, under ANY circumstances.

Purchasing

All Sales are Final. Unwarranted Charge-Backs will result in immediate, public Blacklisting and Blocking.
If there was a mistake, get in touch Immediately.
Payment is required Up Front before work is started, and refunds are Unavailable if I have started your commission.

  • While my goal is to generally get orders done within a month of payment, please allow for a 2 ~ 3 month turnaround for all orders, of any size, unless discussed otherwise. You may check in with me as you please, but refrain from asking more than once a week. Pestering me will likely slow me down, and if I feel it borders harassment you may have your commission cancelled.

  • I'm willing to consider payment plans for large orders, meaning anything $100 and over. I'd prefer that payment plans be fulfilled in one month, unless discussed otherwise. Work on this commission won't start until at least 50% ~ 75% has been paid depending on amount, and I won't proceed past the sketch stage until payment has been completed. Please stay in contact during payment plans.

  • If for whatever reason I'm unable to complete your commission during my quoted turnaround, I'll let you know!

  • I reserve the right to decline or cancel a purchase for reason at any time before Payment (money, trade, etc.) has changed hands.

  • You must be 18 years or older to purchase from me. If a transaction involves money, I will be checking socials to verify, and I will decline your order if you cannot provide proof of age. My Apologies!

  • Do not claim to have designed the character, nor claim the original art of a design as your own.

  • I reserve the right to use the design for self-promotional purposes, i.e. commission advertisements, use in portfolios, etc.

  • I reserve the right to turn One-Off designs, including designs made prior to these terms, into Open or Closed Species. (You and your character won't be required to participate in the species if this becomes the case!)

  • When uploading art of one of my designs for the first time, or uploading references at any point in time, please provide proper credit (i.e a working link back to me).

  • I require clear, verbal confirmation and communication in any and all transactions. Please confirm that you have sent payment, that you are ok with the contents of a trade and/or purchase, and confirm closure of transactions. A simple "thank you!" or "ok!" is all i'm looking for. I will not accept read-recipts as confirmation (dA Notes, Twitter, etc.) I will, however, accept Transfer notifications on ToyHouse as confirmations in trades.

  • As a general rule, my designs are not intended for nor priced for Commercial Use, so please: Do not use my designs for Commercial Purposes or turn them into Species without approaching me first.

  • I do NOT allow my art/designs to be used for NFT's or in AI Training, commissioned or not, under ANY circumstances.

When Making Edits / Redesigning

You may edit the design however you please, so long as you adhere to the below:

  • Do not drastically edit beyond recognition. When placing the original and an update side by side, you should be able to clearly tell that they're the same character.

  • Do not whitewash designs made by me (where applicable, i.e. humanoid designs). You may darken and otherwise adjust skintones as you please, but do not make darker characters lighter.

  • Do not make edits to the original art, unless you come ask me for permission, and do not attempt to remove/relocate my signature period.

  • Please use a base (with permission), commission someone, or draw the updated art yourself if you are updating the design.

Sale / Trade / Gift

  • Gifting and trading is fine! Please be respectful and responsible, though! I'd prefer not to see my designs be used as mere fodder.

  • Do not resell designs for more than you paid unless REASONABLY adding on the worth of commissioned or personal art. Art made as a gift/trade may not be used to raise the resell price. Please refrain from creating art for a design purely to inflate their price in sales.

Purchasing

All Sales are Final. Unwarranted Charge-Backs will result in immediate, public Blacklisting and Blocking.
If there was a mistake, get in touch Immediately.
Payment is required Up Front .

  • When buying from me, be able to or ready to pay within 48 hours of claim and confirmation. No transfers, if applicable, will begin until then.

  • ---- I'm open to discussions about holds and payment plans for things $100 and higher! Generally, I'd prefer to keep holds under 2 weeks and plans no longer than one month. Lengths are of course dependent on amount, and are case-by-case! Please communicate with me on these!!

  • When trading with me (via other characters/customs/art), please be able to complete work within one month or your normal turnaround period for your art/customs!! No transfers will begin until then.

  • ---- Again, completion length is up for discussion depending on amount/complexity!! Please communicate with me!!

  • Failure to complete payment with no clear attempt at notifying me will result in your claim being revoked, and the design being put back out for offers, or handed to the next interested party. I will not chase down customers past one (1) reminder.

FAQ


What Programs/Tablet do you use?
Clip Studio Paint + Paint Tool SAI (2)! More often CSP.
I use a Cintiq 13HD and/or a Cintiq Companion 2! I am looking to upgrade to a bigger screen someday... Both screens are rather small for my poor hand.I also use an 8Bitdo bluetooth controller for my hotkeys! I have the bigger version that has ~22 buttons on it that you can program with a 3rd party tool! I've been using JoyToKey -- It's been super helpful!!

I don't have PayPal, how can I pay you?
At the moment I only accept payments through PayPal, as it's the only service I unerstand qwq! However, it's possible to pay an invoice with a credit/debit card instead if need be! I'd send you a direct link to the invoice instead of sending it to your PP address.

When are your Commissions going to be open again?
No idea! Could be tomorrow, could be three years from now. My brief window of freelance (mid 2021 ~ late 2022) was very rewarding and full of lessons and eye-openers. I am burned out though, and badly. For now, I'd rather focus on myself!
(And thank you to everyone who supported me during that time! No words can properly express the gratitude I feel, and will still feel even years down the road!)
TL;DR, I have no plans to reopen commissions, at least for the foreseeable future.
