Terms & Conditions
Commissions
General
My working days are Tuesday – Saturday.
- I reserve the right to decline any commission requests. Reasons may be not being comfortable with the design, etc.
Significant changes can only be made in the sketching phase. Once I start the outlines and rendering, only a change in color is possible. If you need more changes, I can do so for an additional fee.
I try to prioritize existing clients as far as possible.
You are allowed to reupload the artwork in it’s pure form but not allowed to edit it in any way (this includes putting filter over the artworks, etc.) without permission.
Credit to me, Yumizu, and either my homepage or any social media linking must be made wherever you use or (re-)upload the artwork.
I’m allowed to post the artwork and the sketches of the artwork on my social media, portfolio as well as streaming the drawing process. If you don’t wish so I’m keeping the artwork private for an additional fee.
- Do not upload WIP’s (work in progress pictures) or sketches that I send you without permission.
I won’t draw in specific styles. Please be sure that my style is what you are looking for.
Data Protection
For local tax law reasons, an invoice has to include the address of both, the biller and the recipient. Personal data that is needed for the invoice, such as full name, address, e-mail, etc. will only be used for the purpose of writing the invoice. It will never be stored or appear anywhere seperated than on the invoice.
- Distribution, verbally or written, of any of the personally identifiable and generally inaccessible information used for the invoice will result in a criminal complaint.
- All of the above applies to both parties.
Contacting
If you want to commission me or have any questions beforehand, contact me via the contact form in the CONTACT tab or via Email on contact[at]yumizu[dot]com.
In case of a commission inquiry, please include the service you are interested in and a detailed description of the desired design as well as visual references.
Not having visual references or an insufficient description may increase the price.Due to different monitor calibrations, the colors and contrast of the artwork can look different on different monitors. To make sure that I use the exact colorpalette that looks how you want it on your monitor, you can provide me a color palette I can colorpick from or the hex codes.
Prices & Payment
If not discussed otherwise, payment must be sent within 72 hours after the invoice was sent, if not, another commissioner will get the place in queue. Reservations can’t be made.
Payment must be received in full before I start the commission. Partial payment for vtuber model commissions can be discussed.
Payment must be made in Euro.
Refunds are possible if commission has not been started. No refunds after I started the commission.
Working with a strict deadline increases the costs.
