Trade and design terms of service

Instructions

lazy thumbnail i know.. this is for anyone who wants to do a design/art trade or get an adopt for me! --------------------------------------------------------------------- DT? OPEN, AT?, OPEN collab (on scratch)?, OPEN if you get a custom or adopt from me (and like it) i ask that you PLEASE use and love the character. i dont want them to sit decaying in your storage never to be used. you are free to put the character back up for adopt or redesign if you cant connect, or just return it back to me. IF YOU DONT PROVIDE ANY SORT OF UPDATES ABOUT PAYMENTS FOR THE TRADE/ADOPT IN ABOUT A MONTH, I WILL PUT THE CHARACTER BACK UP FOR ADOPT. please.. please... have the intent to finish the pays.. if your busy or get overwhelmed, i will understand and i will put the oc on hold or just let u have it.. pls just tell me whats going on with the transaction status... be warned, im very picky with adopts and customs because i feel like i already have so many ocs and i feel really bad if i dont use the oc and they end up sitting in my storage. so this is why if im doing a design trade i may ask you to just draw my existing characters. i have a hard time connecting to designs not made by me. if i get an adopt from you, the species may be changed or they may get a slight redesign. i DO NOT like canine/feline/vulpine/rodent, general common species characters and their species will be changed. i highly prefer things like dragons, mechas, mech beasts, unique custom species, and humanoids (preferably masculine). see my other ocs at @TRIPMACHINE for a general idea of what i like. i prefer medium to high detail. please tell me if you do not want your designs given away. if i cant connect i may put them back up for adopt, and if you ask ill be happy to return the design to you if i havent already made art and heavily redesigned them. i want your hard work and oc to have a loving home. if you get a design or oc from me you dont need to credit me directly. just a "design not by me" is fine. I actually prefer to not be credited by name or link... just say u didn't draw it once the character is yours, you can do whatever you want with it. i try to make my designs fairly androgynous and a blank slate for you to decide character info like name, gender, and lore for urself. i will add these myself if requested or if info is provided before i start drawing. ill do designs of ANY species! if it is a custom or closed species make sure you have permission from the species owner saying you can use certain traits or have a character made. i draw my art in scratch bitmap so i will most likely draw new lineart for every design unless i have a base i myself made of that species already. (will use other base if requested) it also really helps if you tell me specific things you want in the design, or give me inspiration with moodboards, songs, song cover art, existing fandom characters, and general references.
