TOS
▪ I will send an invoice for the payment, in which 50% must be received as a deposit before I can start the commission. Some exceptions can be discussed. Payment will be through PayPal invoice.
▪ All prices are only approximations and are subject to change depending on complexity of the commission. Adjustments and editing fees are all included in the final price.
▪ Refunds are allowed to be requested if commission has not been started. If throughout the process, either you or I come to the decision that we are not the right fit for each other and cancel the commission, only 50% of the full price may be refunded. Please make sure you are sure of your request.
▪ Commissions are only for personal use, unless discussed otherwise. If the artwork is intended for commercial use, that will incur a higher fee. Reposting your commission is fine.
▪ I am allowed to post the artworks to my social media sites to promote my work, unless stated otherwise. Depending on the work, this may incur additional privacy fees. This also includes streaming my process at twitch.tv/hanacue unless stated otherwise.
▪ Depending on my schedule and waitlist, commissions may take anywhere from a few days to several months. If you need your commission pushed up to the top of the queue, then there is a 20% fee on the total price.
▪ Commission will be provided in a full resolution digital file.
▪ I may decline any commission requests if I feel I can not fulfill your request well enough or due to my schedule.SUBJECT MATTER

FAQ

Q1. When will your commissions be available?
For the time being, I am focusing on my own improvement. I will not be taking any more private commissions at this timeQ2. What programs/brushes/tablet do you use?
Tablet: iPad Pro 2021 & Apple Pencil 2, Intuos Pro M
Art Program: Clip Studio Paint Pro
Vtuber Animating Program: Live2D Cubism
Brushes: Default dense watercolor brush, opaque watercolor brush, more detailed here.Q3. Do you have any advice for beginner artists? How do you practice and improve at art?
1. Draw everyday. I know everyone will tell you this but I find the easiest way to draw everyday is to find an obsession (anime, games, etc.) and have scrap paper handy all the time to doodle. You will naturally improve!
2. Once you become comfortable drawing, you can then begin to scrutinize different parts of your art and improve on singular parts. Hate the way you draw noses? Find an artist that draws them a way you like and figure out how to do it similar. By repeating this process with many different artists you will start developing your own style.
3. After steps 2 and 3, you should be comfortable on how to draw and how to study art to develop your style, so at this point you can learn to draw from references and break them down to learn more or to enhance your art. At this point, it comes down to preference and what is aesthetically pleasing to you.
4. If you enjoy my style, I would describe it as a painty messy style. I focus on shapes and colors and defining important pieces like the eyes, face, and hair. If you want to achieve this style, focus on those 3 things. When painting, I rely on the textures to paint and color to guide my art.
5. Finally, after you have developed these skills of drawing and how to study art through reference or observation, you can keep improving by applying techniques like lighting, composition, etc. Some of this can be abstract but they're the final things that will push your art from good to great.Don't forget it’s a long journey through and through and there are no shortcuts (: However, it’s fun, rewarding and incredibly awesome to see yourself improve, so you got this and good luck!Q4. Can you make a tutorial/video about ``?
I'm planning to work on a series of tutorial videos in the future, but at the moment, I'm currently swamped with work! It usually takes me a bit of planning before I can release a tutorial of a topic.Q5. How long have you been drawing?
I started doing art seriously in May of 2020, but I've been drawing my whole life!Q6. Are you self taught?
I'm completely self taught at the moment, but I highly encourage you to take on art courses if you can afford it!Q7. How long did it take to learn how to make Vtuber models?
I streamed my entire process of learning how to make a Vtuber model from scratch. The entire process of designing, drawing the model, learning how to cut the model, learning how to rig, and then rigging the model took me five weeks, with weekends off.Q8. How long does it take to complete an illustration/Vtuber?
This varies largely by the size of the work and how much time it takes to solve problems that may arise in the process. On average, a Vtuber model can take me about 3 months, from design to completion. Illustrations can take anywhere from 10 to 24+ hours.
