I am willing to change some of my terms for you if you ask before I start on your commission. If you, e.g., do not want me to post your art anywhere, we can discuss this.you get 2 rounds of changes post-approval on the commissioned piece included in the price.a fee will be added if you want something changed on a completed work 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, which will be based on the complexity of the change and can be up to a 10% increase of the original cost of the pieceif you have no reference or your reference is very unclear, this will incur an additional cost as needed. i will inform you beforehand an estimate for that.if a commission is in the final stages of completion or is completed, i will only allow small changes to be made at your request.
