Dudka Art

Digital Art Illustrator

About me

If you're here, you've probably found my art on other social media, like Bsky, Twitter/X, or Cara. I'm a freelance digital fantasy illustrator. I mostly do commissions with characters from FFXIV, WoW, LoL, DnD, BG3, and original settings, etc. I do art for a living and it brings me a lot of joy. I may not be the fastest of artists, but I try to give my best with my paintings.
Art is a form of expressing my inner self, I've been an artist for a long time now, but only recently I've been able to focus on my craft fully. 2024 was the year when I decided to go full freelance and I am not planning to quit anytime soon. I struggled a lot to make it work, learned the difficulties of self-employment and organizing my business. I was diagnosed with ADHD two years ago and I wanted to learn new skills and coping mechanisms to fight lack of motivation, anxiety, and poor organizing skills. It's been a long journey and it isn't going to end anytime soon, but I can feel the change.
Being an artist is something more than doing illustrations for me, even for fun; art is the way I read my environment, my consciousness, and my persona. I am happy to choose this way of living and expressing my ideas every time and, of course, I am very happy to draw for others!
Thank you for visiting me here and I hope you enjoy my craft!

Copyrights

- I have the right to use my artwork for self-promotion and commercial usage (e.g. prints, exclusive online content), however, I do not claim the copyrights of the characters but to the artwork itself.
- All commissioned works are intended for personal, NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY. Commissions cannot be used for advertisements or on products, cannot be mass-produced, or used for profit.
- I do not sell copyrights to my artwork. Buying permission for commercial usage doubles the final price.
- Do not use my art to train ANY generative Artificial Intelligence algorithm.

Payment & pricing

- The prices showed in my price list are just sample prices, which means that I will set the final price individually for every commission, of course, based on given examples.
- Any complex features (e.g. wings, tail, horns, scales, fur, if they are significant, complicated outfit, detailed armor) will increase the price of the commission.
- Upfront payment is required.
- Optionally payment can be split into an upfront deposit of 50% of the final project price, and then the balance of 50% right after accepting the final version of the project and before sending the files to the client. This option is not available for commissions under 100 USD.
- The first payment should be completed after both sides, me and the client, agree on the commission details and pricing.
- After the commission is accepted, I will send an invoice via PayPal.
- All payments should be in USD unless, during the process of commissioning, we agree on a different currency.

Communication

- I usually work along with the client, send updates ask for feedback, and ask questions if something is unclear to me.
- The communication method is up to the client. I accept DMs on Twitter (X), BlueSky, Discord, or Email.

Deadlines & delivery

- Completing one commission takes me usually a few days for a portrait and a few weeks for a full-body. I usually give information about the predicted time for each commission type to finish.
- ETA can be prolonged depending on the complexity of the artwork or due to personal issues like work, life strains, illness, or even stress. I always try to communicate about the delays.
- I deliver finished artworks via Google Drive link with your name, where they will be always available for you to download.
- I am not planning to delete accounts where the commissions are stored but it is recommended to save all the files on a personal device for safety measures.

Revisions

- Revisions are requests for corrections BEFORE the final piece has been accepted and sent to the client.
- If the finished piece needs some changes that weren't mentioned earlier, the client has the right to one free revision. Any further corrections will cost extra (5-10% of the base price per correction).

Refunds

- If I have started working on the commission after the client has accepted the sketch, I do not give refunds, unless in exceptional circumstances. By agreeing to my terms the client pays for the work I do, not just the finished product.
- If the commission is canceled, I will send money back to the client based on the work I put into the piece with the current state of the commission, via the same method I received the first payment.
- I have the right to cancel a commission at any time for no reason, however, I will always try to explain my reason. I will also send all the money I received back to the client if I do so.
- I have the right to decline a request that I'm not comfortable with.
