2: I will reply, either to ask more about your commission, or to immediately confirm/deny that I'll be able to do your commission. 3: Once I confirm your piece, I'll give you a price and ask what your preferred payment type is. You can choose from any payment type listed on my Commission Terms and Info form. I will tell you my payment details and check with you once I see the money in my account. Ideally you will have read my terms and conditions page by then, but you are not strictly obligated to have actually filled it out at any time. 4: Then I will get to work! I have a more comprehensive timeline on my Commission Terms and Info if you are so inclined to look over there.
So far, I have not turned any commission work down, but I still want people to know that it is a possibility - in case I unexpectedly get sick, become too busy to draw, or seriously object to your proposal.
If you dont think that you can pay me entirely at the time I price your piece, let me know! While I can't work for free, I can slightly alter my prices to better accommodate a broader span of expendable incomes. If I've lowered your price and you still cannot pay, I will not lower it again. If this causes you any issues, then wait until you can pay for my working time.
