| ♡ Speedpaint Proof ! ♡ • Posted: 6:06 AM |
If you are worried that my art is AI generated, traced, etc., I have provided full-length art videos and x16 speed speedpaint videos that are included on the link below. Some of my full-length art videos may be slightly edited to remove notifications from my personal discord or spans of time where I tab out or do other things. Also, I do not record design consultations, that is between me and my client, I do not want to jeapordize ideas they might want to use in other things.I DO NOT generate AI at all in any process of my art journey, All art is made by me and all references will be listed in the post and all links will be given to associated parties. Please email me through my email below if you have any thoughts, concerns, etc. about pontiential use of AI art, art theft, or tracing.However, I do not provide speedpainted work for commissioned pieces, as usually my sketches and constant edits are enough proof against AI usage. If you need evidence that a commissioned piece isn't AI, you will probably have to ask the person that commissioned me for them, because sometimes I will not post until they give me the "okay". Along with the art, I send full-length and 16x speedpaint videos to prove that my art wasn't made by AI. I will, however, publish the normal speedpaint of said person claims that my art is made with AI.Thank you.

| ♡ ⠀⠀Ordering !⠀⠀ ♡ • Posted: 6:06 AM |
❥1: Try to order when there is space available. If you somehow ordered and the queue was full...
❥I will give you the benefit of the doubt and extend my commission queue for you. I'll only do it for 2 commission requests if they are sent approximately 1-2 minutes after the last commission request (that filled the queue) was sent.
❥However, if your commission was sent when the queue was full and it doesn't fit those requirements, then it will be ignored. I will let you know that the queue is full and, if you're willing, I'll let you be the top spot for my next commissions.
❥2: If there are commission spots open, fill out the Google Form found in the payment page after you hit the button below. Once you filled out the form I will notify you if your commission made the queue, and what queue spot you are in. If you want to, you can DM me on any of my socials to claim your spot. I respond quickest on Discord and Instagram.
❥3: Commissions are (loosely) based on a first come, first serve system. Commissions will be done based on
Rush Orders will take priority above normal commissions, and Rush to Date commissions take priority over those.
❥4: Once the request is sent and your queue number is given, you cannot add additives such as Rush Order or Rush to Date. Once payment is finalized, you cannot change your order.
| ♡ ⠀⠀Prices !⠀⠀ ♡ • Posted: 6:06 AM |
❥1: I do take other forms of payment, once you clicked the box below, make sure you check my conversion rates.
❥2: My prices are non-negotiable, and my bundle offers cannot be altered. I will not add more stock until the restock period, and at that period I will chose to add more to the stock or not. If there is no more stock available, you'll have to pay the original price.
| ♡ ⠀⠀Etiquette !⠀⠀ ♡ • Posted: 6:06 AM |
❥1: I can force a refund at any time if I believe you're being inconsiderate or rude.
❥2: Do not try to rush me.
❥3: When posting my art you must give full credits to me somewhere in the post. Do not claim my art as your own. I do not care if you want to put it as your profile picture, you can do that I and do not need to credit me in your bio. Just don't claim it as your own.
❥4: You ARE allowed to request::
- That your commission will/will not be posted on certain websites. I will have to at least post it on my Google Drive for Art Theft purposes.
- To be tagged/not to be tagged or named.
- That I will/will not post my speedpaint or full-length speedpaint on my youtube channel and/or google drive.
