Art I make for others (eg. gift art or commissions): The recipient owns all rights except for the merchandising rights.
Designs I make for others (eg. customs or adoptables): The recipient owns all rights to the design, commercial or otherwise.
Note that I conceptualize the design and the art as two separate things. For example, if I draw someone a custom character design, they will have full rights to use the character design (eg. if they want to sell the design, or they draw it themselves and sell their drawing on a tshirt), but they will not have full rights to use the artwork of said design.Contact me if you have any concerns

DISCLAIMER:
if you are here, i assume that you are in support of artistic freedom. i will take your usage of these characters as acceptance that you are fine with your own characters being referenced. if you are not okay with this, leave and don't come back. you should not use what you believe isn't yours to take.
legally, this disclaimer cannot be enforced, but i'll go ahead and reference your characters anyways lol
THE BASICS:
these designs are under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license*. this means anyone and everyone can use and alter them for (almost) any reason.
CC: stands for "creative commons", meaning the design is free to use by anyone.
BY: attribution / credit must be given
NC: only non-commercial use is permitted.
here is more information from the creative commons website.
*do note that i cannot legally license fandom characters :( feel free to use and alter them anyways!
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
- use the designs and artwork as your own characters
- edit or trace my artwork (yes, even if you want to make something entirely unrelated!)
- change & alter the designs
- draw / redraw the designs in any way you want. they are yours, so feel free to treat them as such.
WHAT YOU CANNOT DO:
- claim exclusive ownership over my designs, my artwork, or alterations of my designs / artwork
- use my artwork in commissioned work
- sell / trade my designs, heavily inspired designs, or designs containing my artwork
more information on this is listed in the "commercial use" category.
ABOUT COMMERCIAL USE:
i allow limited use of my works commercially. this does not fall under the original license, thus it is a privilege and not a right.to creative commons enjoyers: feel free to sublicense your works under CC BY-SA or CC BY-NC-SA licenses! i am perfectly happy with people doing so. this is the only way that i permit commercial use of my designs & artworks, as i do not have a large following nor a consistent way to earn money from my art. just be respectful, and you'll be fine.to adoptables creators: you may make adopts inspired by my designs and sell/trade them. if you do this, you must link both my original design in the description and this explanatory page. i request that you don't rip them off more than you'd rip off anyone else's designs, as i am not a fan of the adoptables community.
the reason the paragraph about creative commons does not apply to you is because selling an adoptable intrinsically requires giving the rights of the design to someone else. however, this is not possible, as you are not the license holder of my designs, and thus, you do not have the legal rights to do that. if you decide to do so anyways, i will copy everything you know and provide it for free. do not test me.
ABOUT MORALITY:
this section is here to talk about a few issues that may arise when someone like me provides free products to the internet.1. "immoral" content
i genuinely could not care less what you make with these designs. if you do things people don't like, i and others have the right not to like you, but i refuse to take legal action against people's morals - y'know, the things that are infamous for varying from person to person.2. referencing
many of my designs are inspired by other art pieces. the level of referencing varies from design to design - i can guarantee you that there is at least one ripoff of someone else's character that has slipped through. i am not sorry for that. if you are't okay with that, you don't have to use my designs.with that being said, please do not mention me in suggestive or pornographic content containing these designs. i trust that you can find a myriad of other ways to credit me.
