---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Send me a note with what you'd like and include refs for your character(s) please.


By commissionning me, you confirm that you have read, understand and agree to these terms and conditions.


All files- Rough previews as well as the finished animation (uncompressed avi for animation commissions or a gif image compressed according to Devi-art's filesize limits for icons) are previewed and sent through DeviantART's Sta.sh feature. Other methosd such as a .zip archive through filesharing sites or e-mail can be used if Sta.sh fails or if requested. Files inside a .zip archive need to be extracted first before they can be viewed properly.

Final renders/ finished individual frames can be requested in any image format (Transparent icons cannor be sent as jpg).

.zip archives can be opened and files can be extracted in something like winzip, winrar or 7-zip, all of which are free to dowload and use.
.avi files can be played in almost all video players, like Windows Media Player and Quicktime.
.gif files can be previewed by openning them using an internet browser like Internet Explorer, Safari or Firefox, etc.
.png files can be viewed in any photo/image viewer or editor.
.swf files can be played in Flash or using an internet browser.

Once you have paid for and recieved your commission, you may request the files again or request any other associated files at any time as many times as you need to for no extra charge.

Commission status is displayed on my devi-ART Profile page darkmanethewerewolf.deviantart… in a custom box about halfway down the page on the left. I will always inform you first if any major complications come up but do note me if you have a query about your commission at any time.

Always note me if you have any questions or concerns.


For examples of my animations, check my Gallery's animations folder darkmanethewerewolf.deviantart… or the commissions folder darkmanethewerewolf.deviantart…

I do not do animation or icon trades or free requests.
