Marico's Art Commissions

I mainly do SFW commissions through VGen. If you do not have a VGen Client account, you can still avail commissions on the site using your e-mail as a Guest user. Direct commissions are also welcome. Please fill out this form so I can contact you.For NSFW comms, please send an inquiry first in my Retrospring, Strawpage or through private inquiry to discuss the specifics. Please see the FAQs section regarding this policy.Clients from The Philippines are also recommended to send contact requests through this form.

FAQs(?)

How do you determine if the character or piece you want a commission for is highly-detailed?

Some examples of this are character designs from Hoyoverse games and Final Fantasy XIV.Basically if the character or any element in the piece has a lot of accessories or patterns that I have to draw manually.

Regarding the NoTP list

I've decided that I would rather not draw ships that I don't like even if I'm offered payment for it. It's not really for any reason like a ship being "immoral" or "unhealthy" (I do not care about this btw). It's entirely personal.It's also for the sake of my clients and potential clients. I don't trust myself to give enough justice in portraying a ship if I know in my heart that I'm not into it. If people want to commission art of their ships, they deserve the best results, so I would rather not be the one to draw their ship for them if I don't like it.I still have an open mind to other ships that are not in the list and I will entertain your ideas as best I can.

Regarding NSFW art and "specific character pairings"

Reason I made it an "Ask First" in my policy is because depending on the specifics, it might not be allowed in VGen ToS, especially if they have problematic tropes. I don't automatically reject these kind of commissions, I just label them as an off-site service so it'll be out of VGen's jurisdiction. Of course, it still depends on my comfort and preferences.If you think the commission you want is too problematic for VGen, please send an ask in my Retropsring or Strawpage or fillout the private inquiry form so I can give you the separate ToS for my NSFW commissions.Other than the stuff that I will automatically reject which I specified in the TOS and my NoTP list, this is a "no judgement" zone. Harassment and threats over stuff like this will earn you a block and blacklisted from my services.
