Terms of Service

These terms apply to all commission work. By sending payment, you agree to all of the following.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

✧ NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement)

  • All commissions are assumed to be under NDA:

    1. I will not publicly share or display any part of the project unless (a) the client has already made it public, or (b) I receive explicit written permission.

    2. If you require me to sign your own NDA, I am willing to do so and will comply with its terms.

    3. If you wish your project to be showcased, I may, with your consent, display parts of the process or the finished work in my portfolio.

  • This clause exists to protect the client’s privacy and confidentiality while also ensuring that I can legally and safely build my portfolio.

✧ Contact, Prices & Availability

  • Please contact me via Email, Discord, or Twitter/X DM for project quotes, scheduling, and availability.

  • Email: arcus2711@gmail.com

  • Twitter/X: @arukasu2711

  • Discord: arkus2711

  • I only communicate through these official accounts. Any other accounts may be fraudulent.

  • Communication is accepted in English or Chinese only.

  • For companies or teams, please use official accounts/emails or provide proof of affiliation.

  • Availability depends on my current workload and the complexity of the project.

  • Rush orders may be accepted for an additional fee, negotiated case by case.

✧ General Notes

  • Sending a commission request does not guarantee acceptance. I reserve the right to decline.

  • Commission details may only be changed before production begins. Major alterations after work has started may incur additional charges.

  • For non-Skeb style commissions, I typically provide drafts and progress updates for approval.

  • All clients are treated equally; there is no “returning client priority.”

  • I only store files for a limited time. Files may be removed during cleanup or by accident, so I strongly recommend backing up your completed works.

✧ What I Will & Will Not Draw

✅ I Will Draw

  • Original characters (OC)

  • Selective fanart

  • Some male characters

  • Overly muscular or elderly characters
