I have now broken this into several sections to help make it easier to find the information you need.
You can contact me at: duelstyxartwork (at sign) yahoo (dot) com
Remove spaces and replace the words in parenthesis with appropriate symbols.
· Pricing - All prices are ballpark estimates and are based on one character with a minimalist background; and yours may deviate from the general standard of pricing based on a variety of factors. I try to be fair and affordable with my pricing.
· Edits You may receive one free major edit and two free minor edits for the sketch before I require and additional $5 for any extra edit. It is your responsibility to be clear about what it is you are wanting, remember, Im not a mind reader! Be specific! There will be NO edits paid for or otherwise after you have approved the sketch.
· Medium All artwork is done in traditional mixed media on acid free paper. Media and paper type are left up to my discretion unless you specify otherwise.
· Copyrights I retain all copyrights to my work unless other arrangements have been made. I reserve the right to make and sell prints of my work unless other arrangements have been made. If you have issues with this, please tell me ahead of time.
· Originals The original will be mailed to you upon completion.
· Providing Photos For pet portraits and fish, I require photos to work with. The clearer, the higher resolution the better but I will also attempt to work with poor quality photos.
· Refunds I have never had this come up but Im just covering my behind here. I do not offer refunds because, well, Im not a store. Im an artist. If you are extremely dissatisfied with a piece however, I will try and work with you until you are pleased.
· References I am more than happy to provide references upon request.
· Commercial Work Yes I accept commercial work, please contact me for further info.
Ψ Shipping All artwork is packaged to the best of my ability. Once it has left my hands I cannot be held responsible for loss or damage. Insurance can be purchased though the postal service. I cannot replace the artwork. In the event of loss or damage I can send you a photo of the work but I am unable to replace the original. Shipping can definitely be combined on multiple pieces for no extra cost.
§ 8.5x11 & 9x12 pieces are $4.00 to ship and are an extra $2.00 for insurance. They are packaged in a large flat envelope with cardboard to protect them.
§ 11x14 & Larger pieces are $10.00 to ship and insurance varies depending on the cost of the piece. These pieces are rolled up and packaged in stiff mailing tubes to keep them safe.
Ψ Payment - I require a small non-refundable deposit on all commissions before I start inking or coloring. I do not require or expect for a piece to be paid for in full before its finished. I expect payment when the piece is completed, and I expect to be paid in a timely manner. Im sure any reasonable person understands how rude it is to do work and then wait a month or two to get paid for that work after its finished. Work must be paid for in full before I ship.
§ I accept PayPal (no credit or debit cards), personal checks (they must clear before the piece ships), money orders, cashiers checks, and cash (mail at own risk).
*I always do the best job that I am capable of doing, but please remember Im an artist and not a camera! My specialty is not photo-realism and nothing I do will ever look identical to the photo provided. I always try to complete your piece in a timely manner, but some pieces may take me longer than others depending on inspiration and the number of other people ahead of you. I do not put caps or limits on the number of commissions I take because I deeply appreciate everyone that enjoys my work enough to commission me. This could affect the time taken to complete your commission.

I accept commissions of any type of pet from rodents to reptiles. Pricing varies a great deal based on what exactly your pet is, as well as its pattern and color. Use this pricing as a rough guide only. Reptiles tend to be more than furry pets due to their scales.

My specialty! As many times as I draw them, I never really get tired of them. I love bettas. Pricing is for one fish and varies based on their color. Reds are on the lower end, coppers and marbles on the higher. Other species of fish fall into this category also.

Other
Fish
Most anything that walks on two legs and has a general human-like appearance. This includes neko girls/boys, sci-fi races that fall into this category, nagas, mermaids, and of course human beings among others. Anthros and furries do not fall into this category. Busts are face and shoulders only. Full body shots can be anything from a character standing in place, to doing the fox trot, to snipering some poor shmuck in a field. If you have something in mind, please let me know.

This section should be pretty self-explanatory. Anthros, such as werewolves, and furries fall into this category. For creatures that youve dreamed up, either a character or fursona that walks on four legs, please see fantasy for more accurate pricing.

Dragons, chimeras, cryptozoology, and anything weird floating in the galaxy that has popped out of the grey matter between your ears all fall into this category. When commissioning me for something in this category please be very specific so I know exactly what youre describing. This category is also very hard to price, so they may be under the minimum or over more than expected. Please keep this in mind. Fursonas that walk on four legs would most likely fall into this category.

Miscellaneous
I cannot accurately put a price in this category but I am happy to draw plants, flowers, leaves, and so on. I will also accept buildings and mechanical type commissions although they are not my strongpoint so be forewarned. Please contact me for pricing.
