Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, I do allow clients to make multiple purchases while only taking up one slot. I allow up to 4-8 purchases depending on the art style. Of course, multiple commissions will take longer to finish so patience is much appreciated

No, you must pay in full.
Can I use a different paymeny method other than PayPal Invoice or Ko-fi?
No. I'm not going to make a new transaction account for any reason. I prefer using invoices and Ko-fi because I can provided receipt details via both methods.

🦑Make sure to DM/email me instead of commenting on a pre-existing post. Comments under posts are much easier to get “lost in the clutter” of other comments.⚠️I DO NOT go into other people's DMs asking if they want to commission me. I only advertise my commissions publicly. If I appear to be doing otherwise, that is a fake :) Also, let me know if someone's impersonating me.
