- After payment has been made, I will start working on your commission.
- I will show you initial rough sketch and ask for 1st revision.
- I will show you cleaned sketch and ask for 2nd revision.
- After sketch approval, you will have to complete the full payment before proceeding with the rest of the commission progress.- When your commission is done I will send you the high resolution file via email and ask for final revision.
- Once final approval has been made, I will post the commissioned artwork on my websites.

1. What do I do if my commission form doesn't get accepted?
> There are many forms that I tend to receive, if yours doesn't get accepted, it doesn't always mean that your commission idea is not acceptable. Usually I can only accept 5 at a time and if I get over 10 forms I tend to have a very tough time to choose because most of the time there are many many great commission ideas. Don't get discouraged and feel free to apply again!2. Is there an easier way to get my commission form to be accepted?
> I'd say you'll just have to follow what is acceptable for me to draw. Anything that is in the "I WILL NOT ACCEPT" list is an immediate reject so make sure your commission idea is acceptable!3. What should I do if I have more than one commission idea?
> You can submit a separate form for each commission idea that you have in mind. Keep in mind that if you submit more than one commission idea, there will be a chance that not all of your commission idea will be accepted.4. If I keep applying for your commission and I have never gotten accepted yet, is there a bigger chance for my idea to get approved?
> I apologize that there won't be a bigger chance for approval.5. May I use the commission result that you did for commercial use?
> No you're not allowed to. All commissions are only for personal use. If you'd like to ask me to draw something for commercial purpose / any kind of project, please contact me personally through my email ([email protected]).6. The type of commission that I want is not in this form, how do I apply for that?
> You will have to wait for when I'm opening that certain type of commission. You can keep an eye on updates from my twitter: @seiryuuden7. How often do you open your commission?
> Usually I open a new batch as soon as I finished working on the current batch I'm working on. You can take a look at the commission wait list to keep a track on it.
