Commissions are OPEN!
Hey guys, it's the semester break and I'm going to need some funds to plan for several little trips I'm having. It's nothing terribly expensive, but I would like a little additional funding to help finance the trip a little bit better. My commissions are affordable, and so far, I've never had complaints about the quality or time taken to finish it

<sub>Opening commissions indefinitely.

Some little pointers/rules:
• I will not draw outright sexual content (blatant porno). Innuendos, jokes, subtle sensuality, risque and artistic nudity are fine, however.

• I don't do gore, hardcore yaoi/yuri/hentai/lolicon/shotacon. No questions asked.

• If your request involves your OC, an established character (ex. Harry Potter, Naruto, etc.), please be sure to include a link to a reference image. This ensures you get your commission done in a timely manner.

• I have a right to turn down customers if I see fit, more so if the request in question involves drawing something against my policies.

• I will send a draft sketch of the request. This is where you will get a general idea of how the picture will be, you're free to ask me to change or modify things, but please be sure to list them all. Once the sketch has been approved, please send the money over. I will continue finishing up your commission once I am notified the payment has been sent :3

• I will give you a high res (300dpi - 600 dpi) image, along with a resized image without watermarks.

• When asking for the hard copy, it will be mailed to you in a protective envelope, along with a few goodies I leave for customers!

Payment methods
• PAYPAL is preferred for international orders.
Send payment to this address: mel(at)theseoshop(dot)com
(be sure to leave a message somewhere stating that the payment is for me. The address listed is a shared account between my parents and I, and I would like to avoid confusion)

• MONEYGRAM is also an alternate method for payment.

• For Malaysians, WangPos, plx And please, leave the fields intended for me, blank. I've had trouble with people writing my name as 'Memai' on there and it makes it very difficult to clear with the post office people, as it requires me showing my IC
(and I'm sure you guys have guessed, Memai isn't my real name and Amanda is only my middle name).

• I don't recommend you sending money through the mail unless you really, really have to (and are aware of the risks). Also, I am not responsible for money being lost in the mail, please be sure to prioritize/insure or find means to protect the money. A good tip is to slip the notes between sheets of paper/thin card/aluminum foil.

• And while not recommended, I also allow wire transfers :b Bank-in transfers are fine for MALAYSIAN commissions only

Progress

Frequently Asked Questions
• How long can I expect to wait for a commission? How long does it normally take you to finish a request?
Usually I can finish a simple request in a few days. Larger and more complicated commissions may take a longer time. I try to keep my deadlines below THREE WEEKS, but if I need more time, I'll guarantee communication is kept intact with the customer

• How long or often are you open for commissions?
Commissions are opened indefinitely. I will try to keep slots open and finish up commissions that need to be done. I will announce on my journal whether commissions will be closed or open, just watch for the updates :3

• How long will it take for the original to arrive?
I would give it two - four weeks for it to arrive.

• How are the original piece being sent of packaged?
I use a durable padded envelope. The original in question may be laminated by request (no charges). Contents will be protected by a plastic sheet.

• Are your prices negotiable?
No, I try to keep my prices fair so that both serious and casual buyers will get their money's worth.

• Can I use the image for website layouts/graphics/icons/signatures/avatars/etc?
Yes, you may do whatever you like with the image, granted that it's NOT FOR PROFIT. While I do not retain rights to the characters depicted, I do own rights to the image that I drew.

• Can I use the image for prints, shirts or other things meant for sale?
As stated above, you may not use the images for means to generate profit. I ask that you do not redistribute the original, high resolution, unwatermarked image and claim it as your own.</sub>
