COVID-19 has understandably lead to many events and conventions being canceled. Our convention schedule will be modified as we're updated on the situation. Work hours have been reduced to accommodate mental health and facilitate proper time to incubate creativity. My work schedule is Monday - Friday, emails are checked daily. All merchandise and shipping supplies have been stored in a closed-off space. We are strict with sanitation and all surfaces are disinfected before packaging.



KINGHIME is a solo-owned company that specializes in illustration services, animation, and merchandise. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at contact@kinghime.com.

King is also the co-owner of the indie game studio, KingAsphy, which focuses on queer, thrilling visual novels. With NIGHT/SHADE being the first company project, we aim to bring our artistic vision to life by utilizing the expertise of other artists, designers, engineers, and composers alike. We want to make the content we wish to see in the world by taking daring and intense stories to elevated levels, and combining them with our passionate, skilled artistry. We can't wait to share this with you!

COMMISSIONS INFO

CURRENT STATUS: CLOSED
My commissions open by announcement on Twitter or Furaffinity. My patrons get notified about application openings before the public. Please read my terms of service for more information. If you have further inquiries about my commissions, shoot me an email.

Commission opportunities and project inquires will be scarce due to my involvement with NIGHT/SHADE.

Terms OF Service

By commissioning me, you agree to my Terms of Service. Failing to acknowledge this ToS will result in termination of services and a refund. Client may also be blacklisted from future transactions.

As the client:

  • Clients must be 18 years or older. No exceptions.

  • Clients may ask for updates, including WIPs and ETAs.

  • The client will only receive a DIGITAL COPY of the artwork, no shipping will be involved. Exceptions are to be discussed.

  • Clients may request that I do not publicly post a finished piece or keep their name / handle anonymous.

  • The client may post their commissioned artwork wherever they choose. (must give credit)

  • The client may modify or color their commission for non-profit purposes only. (must give credit)

As the artist:

  • I maintain rights to all work I create in any digital or print form under the name Kinghime or SoftRaylo. This includes, but is not limited to, using commissioned work in portfolios, prints, merchandise, ect.

  • I maintain the right to turn down any commission, character, or corrections I don't feel comfortable doing.

  • I may cancel the commission and issue a full refund if I decide to no longer work with a client.

  • I will only discuss the commission with my client.

Payments and Refunds

Payment is paid upfront. I accept USD via invoice, which can be paid with Paypal balance or credit/debit card.

Full refunds are ONLY eligible if [I cancel the commission] or if [I take over 60 days to complete the commission] from payment date.

I am willing to work with clients if they are unhappy with their commission, so I ask that you are clear and honest with me.

Please do not open a PayPal dispute without contacting me beforehand. I will take legal action and the client will be blacklisted. The client is responsible for their own financial situation. I do not issue refunds for the client's failure to manage personal finances.

Commission Process

  1. I'll announce on Twitter or Furaffinity with a link to my application form.

  2. If I accept your commission, I will contact you with a Paypal invoice. If I don't receive a response from the client within 24 hours, I will consider the slot abandoned.

  3. References: Visual reference is REQUIRED for characters, I don't accept descriptions. If you don't have a reference sheet, clear images are perfectly fine.

  4. Clients will receive high resolution PNG files (300 dpi) at the end of the transaction. For reference sheets, PSDs will also be provided.
