How a Custom Kigu is Created
All of my kigu's are stitched using a sewing machine, a heavy-duty serger, and an embroidery machine. The only parts of my kigu's that are hand-sewn, are the buttons!
The commissioner has a wide range of eye expressions to choose from for the embroidered hood, as well as a range of colors and shapes to choose from for the custom buttons. I will personally try my best to match a commissioner's kigu as closely as I can to what is asked for. I also provide WIP (work in progress) photos throughout the construction of each kigu to make sure the commissioner is happy with how everything is going during the creation of their kigu.

TOS- All commissioners must read my TOS before the first payment. After the first payment you are stating that you are aware and agree to all of my terms and conditions.
Quotes/Commission Slots
Quotes are not always open, however in my Instagram bio my quotes will always show if open or not. You will need a quote and set price to be accepted into the commission queue before payment. Quotes are valid for 3 months before becoming outdated, or if prices change you will also need a fresh quote. Quotes do not guarantee you a commission slot or need a down payment, they are solely for giving custom price ranges. Commissions will open depending on time availability and after other commissions have been finished up. Commission openings can also be found open or closed in my Instagram bio. My kigu quote form can be found on my Linktree which is on my homepage.
Payment/Payment Plans
An initial 50% deposit cost is required as a down payment for your commission to be added to my queue and for materials to be bought. Commission costs must be fully paid off fully within 1 month after starting your commission, your commission will be sent to you after full payment is given. Currently, I only take payment for custom items through Paypal invoices. General added fees of payment and tax along with shipping will not be included in an original base quote, if you would like the added fees (minus shipping due to not knowing the final weight of your commission) you may ask for an estimate of what the full cost may be.
Shipping
Shipping costs are not included in quotes or the calculated payment until after your commission is completed. Insurance costs on your package will be added onto the shipping costs. I use select shipping methods of mainly UPS for shipping bigger items. International shipping can be expected to cost a higher than average shipping cost. I am not responsible for any damage or lost packages due to the shipping carrier.
Warranty and Repairs
With average wear down and tears after use of your kigu due to normal movement within the first 3 months of receiving your commission, I will offer free minor repairs to your item. Shipping to and from must be paid by the commissioner to have free repairs within this time period. However repairs may be declined at the time due to schedules and current works in progress, I also cannot guarantee repairs to be made in priority. Some things are not covered by the free warranty, repairs after the 3 month period, failure to store properly, being too aggressive, staining, intentionally damaging kigu, washing damage, and heat damage.
Design Changes
After materials are bought and work is started, I cannot guarantee all of the changes can be made. If design changes are made after quoted and or paid, the pricing may increase due to complexity and material costs. Please, before commissioning make sure you are happy with this character or design.
Cancellations
The initial 50% down-payment of any commission will not be eligible for a refund if your commission is less than $800. If you ask for a refund after work has already started, due to how much work has progressed, your refund amount will become less and less.
Sizing
My kigu standard stays at a standard range that covers from small to large, if you are an extra large or if you are taller than 5ft 10in please list your needs on the quote form.
Deadlines/Completion Dates
Completion dates are not guaranteed and may change based on many factors. However I will try my best to give a rough estimate of the completion time of your suit once construction is started. Normally taking under 3 months. I currently do not guarantee completion dates for events or conventions due to accidental rush of work causing flaws in the product.
Ages
I will work with minors ages 16+ with parental consent and agreement. Anyone under the age of 16 years or without parental consent would be considered violating terms of service and will not be accepted. Anyone over the age of 18 will not need proof of consent from someone else.
Conduct and Service
I have the right to refuse a commission or quote based upon many factors, including skill level. If your character is too confusing for me to create or if the design is more complicated than what I am comfortable working with. I may not accept your commission based on these factors or personal preferences for character designs. Harassment of any kind is not tolerated and I will refuse a commission due to behavior if I feel it is needed. Updates will also be given on your commission either sent directly to you, or on my Instagram.
