  • General terms
    Prices are subject to change based on demand, and Tofu Leaf 'I' have the right to reject any order for any reason.

    Commissions is currently opened for Malaysians only.


  • Payment
    Currency accepted is Ringgit Malaysia (RM) and can be paid through any Malaysian payment service such as TouchNGo E-wallet or bank transfer.

    Commissions are paid as such: 
    Base price are paid here in this website;
    Any other additional charges made along the commission process are paid through personal bank transfer (You will be notified of these charges according to your commissions request). 

    Don't send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot and requested you to send me the payment.


  • Process and Delivery
    The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week - 2 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece, other work, and con seasons. 

    Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image. Note that there is no physical product except only when stated.

  • Revisions
    You get 5 rounds of changes on the commissioned piece included in the final payment. A fee will be added if you want something changed on the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made.

    If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make and is usually based on an hourly wage.

     If your reference is unclear to start with changes will come at an extra charge.


  • Cancellation and Refund Policy
    You are NOT allowed a refund once I start working on the commission. However, full refunds are applicable in these situations: 

    - I am unable to start your commission for any reason 
    - You cancel your order before I start production

    If you are getting a refund, do not request a Paypal chargeback. I will transfer the money back to you myself.

    If you request a Paypal chargeback at any point when you were not allowed to ask for a refund you will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece and I will have the full right to profit further from it in any way. I will decline the chargeback and supply Paypal with our conversations in which we talk about the commission as evidence that I have completed work for you. Furthermore, you will be blacklisted for commissioning me again.
