terms of service
general
These Terms of Service govern commissions provided by Ly Leova, trading as LYROID ("the Artist").
By ordering a commission, you agree to these Terms of Service. Commissions are intended for independent creators, personal projects, and small-scale commercial use (e.g. VTubers, indie games, D&D campaigns).
Studios, agencies, publishers, or companies must contact the Artist directly to discuss custom licensing and pricing.
VRoid models may require design adjustments to fit technical limitations. Minor clipping may occur despite optimisation efforts.
Commission workflow:
-
Stage 1: Concept / Brief (skipped if reference sheet or full brief is provided)
-
Stage 2: Modelling, Production & Texturing
-
Stage 3: Final Prototype / Draft sent for approval
-
Stage 4: Extra add-ons implementation
-
Stage 5: Delivery
For MV Production and performance-based commissions, "Modelling & Texturing" (Stage 2) includes mocap animation, camera direction, and lighting; "Final Prototype" (Stage 3) refers to a draft render sent for approval.
PAYMENTS
50% deposit required before start of project. Work begins once the deposit has been received and cleared.
Balance due upon completion, before final delivery (Stage 5).
For commissions booked via VGen, payment is processed through VGen. For direct commissions, payment is accepted via PayPal.
All prices are listed in GBP (£).
REVISIONS
Two rounds of revisions included (one at Stage 1, one at Stage 2). Additional revisions will incur extra charges at £30/hour.
The prototype/draft will be sent for approval before final export. Revisions requested after export (Stage 3 onward) will incur an additional fee.
