CORRECTIONS

-The final piece, where colour can be addressed-I am more than willing to make corrections!
-If I miss an element of your character or idea please remind me and I'll be right on it
-When making corrections, please be direct so that I don't misinterpret your correction as humor or a passing joke, many things go right over my head unless direct-I will allow three (3) corrections betwee the presketch and clean up phases
-Corrections made after the clean up stage will be charged $5 per correction, unless it is colour related.Alternate Versions
Please, during your submission let me know
if you are interested in alts in your piece PRIOR to payment I will allow a number of alternate versions to be added but the process is easier when I know beforehand so that I may layer everything properly and show works in progress including this information.If you would like an alternate version to a commission after initial payment you will be charged a minimum of 10$ (USD). Please be concise in your request so we may get to work on it ASAP!DISCLAIMER
