The Art of Derangedleech

COMMISSION STATUS : OPEN BUT SLOW, WORKING ON QUEUE
LAST UPDATED: 9/7/2023

Official site of Quinncy Apophis

I am a 28 year old artist who grew up within the woods savoring folklore intermingled with a love for colour and the macabre. I used to take weekly painting classes at a local studio where I received critiques and advice on my work before Covid hit. Now I rely on online courses, books and personal studies.All information can be found in the links provided and any further questions you might have you can ask through email. ( [email protected] )

General Warning

Before commissioning, please be aware that my style changes as I advance, sometimes in very short periods of time. The best examples of what you will receive are the most recently shared art pieces on my sites. Most styles can be done at the request of the client if specified up front. If I am unsure if I can emulate it 100% I will show examples of what I can do. Quality of personal sketches are not an indicator of quality of commissioned work. I put maximum effort into pleasing my clients, and often go all out whereas personal pieces are less effort!My current programs are Paint Tool SAI, GIMP, and Clip Studio Paint on my laptop and an Ipad with Clip Studio Paint. I use a Wacom pen and touch bamboo tablet, and an apple pen as my tools. Traditional is whatever is on hand but I prefer watercolour or pen and ink, specifically fountain pens or the Mangaka Flexible for dramatic lines.

By doing business with me you agreeing to all terms and rules I have laid out automatically. Breaking of said rules results in an automatic blacklisting

Rules

  • If the art is not done for you, do not use it online or offline unless specified by me

  • Commissioned work is free for non-commercial use by the commissioner with credit given unless purchased specifically for commercial use

  • I will NOT draw real-living people unless they consent to me prior

  • I require an email to send the invoice to/payment through venmo up front. I wait for payment BEFORE starting your commission

  • Refunds are given 100% unless more than the sketch or partial/complete lines are done of the art, then it is 60-75% and what was drawn

  • I charge freelance taxes, which are 10% on top of commission price

  • Please send all information asked for if commissioning me. Email me for quotes or for specific projects!

  • I retain the right to deny business if I am uncomfortable

  • Complex characters may be subjected to additional charges (wings, mechanoids, ect) simply because of the additional effort/time

  • Traditional art can be mailed to you, customer covers shipping costs. This comes with goodies!

  • NONE of My art can be sold as NFT or crypto, commissioned or otherwise. If you see my art being sold as NFT's it is not me. I do not condone them

  • You do NOT have my permission to train, validate or test a neural network using my art. NO AI.

  • None of my art shall be used for distasteful acts such as pedophilia, racism, homophobia, zoophilia, etc. If I am made aware you will be automatically blacklisted and where needed: reported

  • Any and all commissions are to be done at my own pace. If you need something done by a specific time please be up front about it upon first inquiring. Urgent works may inquire an extra charge

Q & A

Q: Can I commission you for art with your characters involved?
A: We can discuss upon commission inquiry directlyQ: May I use the art, either done for me or someone else, in my redbubble/society6 or other shop?
A: Not unless agreed upon prior. Any sign of this activity will have said shop reported immediately as it goes against my terms. Commercial work can be discussed and priced up front if this is your intention, so don't be dissuaded from looking for merchandise work!Q: I received art from you but noticed mistakes in it after a few days. Can I get them fixed?
A: When a piece is done, you can ask for minor changes as we communicate back and forth for a few days. After that, no. Any large changes or things needing to be re-done after completion will be an extra charge, unless it was fault of my own. I give opportunities with WIP's for fixes during the commission process for larger commissions and commissions done without WIP's can be altered once for free and additional times for +15% of the commission price if I make any additional mistakesQ: Can I commission you to draw something for someone else?
A: Of course! I adore drawing gifts for others, and it would be a honor to be able to draw something for someone else. This holds very true as well for pet portraits or memorials as well. However, I will not do NSFW unless the other has consented to it and all parties are over 18Q: Are you open for custom design commissions?
A: Design commissions are open on a case-by-case basis. Please inquire directly to ask whether or not I would be willing to take on your project

Adopts

Adopts are a quick way to get a design from me for a discounted price and without the hassle of the back-and-forth. Prices vary highly on complexity and my personal opinion of their worth. In all of my galleries I have available adopts, and continue to make new ones as time goes on. I prefer to try to design each one individually instead of doing recolours, but sometimes I will make sets of a few, though the lineart is a one time use for the batchI will send the hi-resolution file of the adopted design to the new owner once purchased through email or a dropbox link. If you have a Toyhou.se I can also transfer it on there directly

Rules

  • Once you buy the adopt, you CANNOT resell it for more than you bought it for plus cost of extra art

  • Changes are OK, but please credit back to the original design

  • Stand-alone (non-recolour or species) adopt designs will NOT be replicated, so please do not ask

  • Payment MUST be sent before you can claim the adopt as your own. If you try to use it regardless you will be reported and blocked

  • I can add in minor details such as a headshot, genitalia (18+), a paw, ect for 10$ each

  • When you say you want the adopt and disappear, I will let the next interested party buy them. First-come-first-serve for the most part, unless you specify a need for a hold

  • All adoptables are to be credited back to me, and are NOT to be used for commercial works unless discussed directly. This may incur a charge depending on situation

  • All adopts come watermarked, and no, I will not remove the watermark. Please do not remove it yourself either. If this is an issue I apologize!

Your Character Here

Your Character Here sales are an option for you to get a deal on a background, scene, or more complex piece without having to pay the additional costs and often without needing to brainstorm what it would be. These are usually solid in what they will be, and only have the character drawn in and can't be edited beyond the blending of character and background.The usual TOS apply to these, with additional information and rules going alongside the piece which will be filled out. NSFW pieces are NOT shown here but can be found on my adult sites.To claim a Your Character Here through this website, please email me at [email protected] and ask for the piece as well as send in a reference and any information I will need
