hi! you'd like to commission me?

i am open to commissions (of course, subject to negotiations and realistic deadlines). you can contact me via email, instagram DM (@artvayne or @vyn.alta), or twitter DM (@artvayne, @pressedandroses, or @piroucttes)!be guided by a floor rate of Php45/hour ($1.00/hour). complexity/urgency may affect the base price. we can negotiate flat pricing as well, so i'm amenable to variances, but the floor is about $1.00/hour. payment can be sent through any means here or via bank transfer. we can talk about it over private message.

what can i do for ya?

my qualifications are that i've competed globally in international competitions. i've received over 30 medals (20+ of which were gold) and two trophies from my time in the World Scholar's Cup (2018) with my team and went from the Philippines, to Malaysia, and all the way to Yale University for the final round. i was also Top 98th of over 1,500 of them overall when i was there.i've won short story and essay-writing competitions from my previous schools, as well as maintaining top marks for all of them across my time there. teachers often know me very well for my highly-ambitious projects and doing everything to the most that i can, especially when the topic interests me.i've also worked as a publicity officer for the CSSP FST Council and contributed to both LFS-CSSP and Bahaghari National for pubs as well. i am currently a Political Science student from UP Diliman and intend to become a professor some day.since i live in the philippines, i am awake for most daylight hours in GMT+8. please don't expect the fastest possible response to your DM. there's a lot of sort through.given all of these, what am i able to offer?

terms!

i'll try to make this quick for you, but i have terms for commissions just so i don't get roped into things i don't want to do.firstly, i always reserve the right to reject any request to commission for any reason i see fit. i'm very open to doing most things. i will do cram projects, draw things within my skill level, design logos, etcetera. i'm very generous for the most part, but i have morals and if i find the content you're asking me for questionable or uncomfortable, i can and will exercise this right.secondly, unless otherwise explicitly requested, i retain the rights to all assets created for your project. that means i get to keep using them or selling them after i've given you the end product. you retain only the ownership you request. buying the rights to the work outright will, of course, require payment as well (+125% original price).thirdly, you get two rounds of revisions for free. please be clear about what you want. use pinterest. sketch on a napkin. i need an idea of what you want me to make so that i can try and target it. any revisions after the second round will be added to your invoice. i will warn you on the first and second rounds of revision.fourthly, you will have to pay at least 50% of an agreed flat price or 30% of an estimated hourly rate upfront. it is not uncommon for artists doing commissions to be scammed out of work by nonpaying customers, especially when providing samples. it's not me distrusting you. it's assurance.fifthly, if you're not happy with the end result, you can either pay for more rounds of revisions or i will take off 15% of the price in exchange for criticism of what you did like and what you didn't. then we can go on our merry way.sixthly, do not claim art work or design you commission from me as your own. credit-grabbing is not only incredibly rude, but devaluing of the effort artists put into their work. the only exception for this is school work.seventhly, even if i sell the commercial and reuse rights to something to you, i keep the right to use the work for personal & portfolio use. it is up to you if someone finds out that you were using someone else's work or if you commissioned your schoolwork.eighthly, i am not responsible for your use or misuse of what i make for you. if you get a bad grade because you submitted a commission, that's not my fault. i am providing my services AS IS and hold no responsibility for what results from it.ninthly, please pay within 7 days from when you received the finished product. i have things to pay for. i have to eat, pay bills, and save for what's coming. i have to replace my laptop and pay for my expensive medication. i'm not going to be ultra-strict about it, but when i work for you, i am still a human being and will need that money at the end of the day.lastly, be reasonable about deadlines. i'm not going to be making a 20-minute video for you in 12 hours! and i get tired. i have my limits and i request that you be understanding about them. if you're not happy about it after we start, then i'll refund 60% of the upfront cost for you.if that all sounds good, then thank you so, so much for commissioning me. i'm not the best artist or writer in the world, nor am i the best graphic designer or student, but i try very hard and i hope that will be sufficient. :)
