Payment & Cancelation Policy
Deposit is 50% of estimate. Work will start once payment is received and all information and imagery are delivered to Artist.

Turnaround Time
Consider your merch drop/upload date.
2 weeks (14 days) minimum needed to complete work once time client has turned in all info + imagery. Extra time is appreciated.
Once Artist turns in work for critique, client must return full notes within 24 hours or each additional day's wait-time will be added to 2-week turn around. IE: client takes 6 days to reply with comments means 14 day project has now increased to 19 days (14 days + 5 = 19 days).
2 rounds of revisions are included with base price. 10% of project fee added to each additional round.
7-day turnaround = Rush-fee of 150% estimated pricing.
