Commissions:

All commissions include 2 free revisions during the sketching phase. Small tweaks after colors are added will be done free of charge within reason. Extra revisions cost $25 each. Email me at deviantkreations@gmail.com for a full quote. 

My commissions are done using a sliding scale, basically you name the price you can afford within my hourly range or piece range. Cost of materials and tax will also be included in the final quote. After sending me all the specifications, I will give you an estimate to how long it will take me to complete so that you can budget. I do this so that regardless of your budget I can make something for you! 

*****Note I reserve the right to sell Prints of designs created unless you opt for sole ownership*****

 

Hourly wage range: $30-60+

Murals: *Price will be determined based on size and complexity of design*

Style: please send me a reference style, look at my portfolio, or check out my Instagram @devkrea to see some styles I’ve done.

Content or Concepts that you want incorporated into the piece (e.g. exploration, freedom, community, etc) 

Budget

 I will require 50% of the agreed price at the start of the work, and the rest upon completion. This is the make sure that if you decide that you no longer want the piece that I am still compensated for the work started. This will also be less of an initial financial burden on you upfront.

  • While I'm working on your commission I will make reviews with you to make sure I make it just right for you!

  • The amount of reviews depends on the complexity of the work.

  • During the reviews, you will see work-in-progress and these images will usually include a watermark and be smaller than the finished piece.

  • The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week - 3 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece, other work and con seasons.

  • If anything comes up that will slow the progress of the initially estimated delivery time I will let you know asap.

  • Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image along with a web-friendly size, and the physical finished piece, if it was a digital commission and you wanted me to send you the print we can add that to the price. You will also receive a certificate of authenticity.

  • A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.

  • If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.

  • If your reference is unclear to start with changes will come at an extra charge.

5. COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY

I, David (Dandy) Knopf (the artist), claim the rights to the produced drawing, not the buyer. Therefore I am allowed to use the copyrighted artwork to:

  • Promote myself with it everywhere

  • Publish books with it (artbooks, etc.)

  • Display it everywhere to my liking (website, social media, etc.)

  • Post it wherever I want

 

The buyer is allowed to:

  • Use the commissioned piece for personal use unless agreed otherwise (you can upload it on all your social media profiles, forums, etc.)

  • Print the artwork and claim the character(s) as their own, but not the artwork itself.

  • Use the artwork to promote themselves. You are not forced to give me credit when you post it but it is very appreciated.

  • Use the artwork on their Youtube channel and in monetized videos as long as the artwork itself is not the main subject for the earnings.

 

The following is considered copyright infringement:

  • Reproducing/using the copyrighted artwork commercially - means making money off it in any way.

  • Claiming the artwork as your own

  • Removing my signature from the artwork

  • Altering the artwork without my consent

  • I reserve the full rights to the image and it's use/distribution unless otherwise agreed upon (rights to the image for your own non-personal use may be purchased at any time).

  • If you have a problem with anything in regards to the commissioned piece please tell me right away so we can find a solution together.

7. REFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY

  • The buyer is not allowed a refund once I started working on the commission.

  • If for any reason I am unable to start your commission you will receive a full refund.

  • If you cancel your order before I started it, you can get a full refund.

  • If you are getting a refund, do not request a Paypal chargeback. I will transfer the money back to you myself.

  • If you request a Paypal chargeback at any point when you were not allowed to ask for a refund you will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece and I will have the full right to profit further from it in any way. I will decline the chargeback and supply Paypal with our conversations in which we talk about the commission as evidence that I have completed work for you. Furthermore, you will be blacklisted for commissioning me again.

If the buyer breaks any of the points stated above they will lose all the beforementioned rights to the artwork commissioned by me, David (Dandy) Knopf (the artist), and I will have the right to profit further from the commissioned artwork in any way I see fit. If you have a problem with any of these statements, they may be changed if discussed with me prior to paying your commissioned piece.
