Commission Status: Accepting
Thank you for checking out my commissions page. Please take some time to check out my Terms of Service (TOS) below. By requesting a commission, you are fully agreeing to all terms outlined here unless discussed otherwise over email.
Please keep in mind that I take my TOS very seriously.
Once I accept the commission request, we will enter a legally binding contract between a client and a service provider.
I do not discuss commission requests and agreements over Discord due to the ease of editing/deleting messages on that platform. For requests, further details or negotiations, please email me at honeytoastie@gmail.com
DON'T BREAK MY RULES, especially regarding AI and NFT/Crypto. I'll actually take legal action and come for your ass. If you're worried about the $$$ fine; I think it's best to look somewhere else. I'm not interested in doing business with people who are trying to break/bypass my TOS or looking for ways to be shady.
As long as you're honest and not looking to break the rules/ToS, we shouldn't have any problems!
Terms of Service
What to expect:

-
There will be a 7-day waiting period for your feedback/response. If I don't hear from you within that time, your commission will be delayed. If I don't hear from you in 1 month of last correspondence, the commission will be cancelled and no refunds will be given.

My Rights:
-
I retain copyright of the commissioned illustration. (To clarify and prevent confusion on this point: I do not own the rights to the characters/subject of illustration. I just do the drawings, and I am the copyright holder of the drawings. No one else can claim that my work is theirs, not even the client).

I reserve the right to refuse requests that I find uncomfortable, or I am not confident in completing to an acceptable standard.

I may stream the creation process of your commission. If you need it kept private until a specific date, please disclose this information in the request email.
-
I may post your commissioned work on my social media and websites for portfolio purposes. It will only be noted that the work is a commission.
-
Please provide visual references of all elements required in the commissioned piece. If you don't have them and would like me to interpret your written descriptions, a character designing fee will be added on top of the commission price. This is not the same as purchasing commercial rights.

Please check the description of the commission type to find this information.
Commercial rights may be purchased after the delivery of the personal commission in cases where the intent of the piece has changed.
Please also note that Commercial Use does NOT mean you own the copyright to the drawing. You may not edit the commission or remove my signature/artist attribution from the piece.
Formal Agreement
Failure to follow the outlined Terms of Service and any other terms discussed by email prior to me accepting the commission request, may result in a $50,000 USD fine for each term of the contract that is broken.
This will be legally actionable by me, Ji Yeon Kim (Black Eye, @blackeye_toast), with reasonable discretion, on the grounds of the client breaking a formal contract with the service provider.
By commissioning me, you agree to adhere to all instructions, terms of service and other information outlined on this webpage.
