About Nienbirb
Henlo, I'm Nien! Most of the sites won't accept Nien as name because it's too short, so I added a "birb". Thus, my online presence as Nienbirb was born!✧ Both my love for anime and for birds started at a very young age. Combining both of them when it comes to art was just the most nien-thing to do! I worked with traditional media materials for 5 years before starting my digital artworks journey in 2020 - this was also when I started to stream on twitch ♡I enjoy designing characters and using them for illustrations! Most of the artworks you will find show ✧my own✧ or other people's characters. I super rarely draw fanart for shows/games~Want a custom piece from me to your liking? ♡ Check out my prices and get in touch!

By contacting me for a commission you confirm that you agree to the terms of services
Please make sure to read them beforehand!
Terms of Services
By contacting me for a commission you confirm that you have read the terms of services stated below. It is assumed you agree with the terms the moment you make the payment. Any questions need to be asked upfront.
I know this is a heccing lot! It protects both me and you as the client, so please make sure to read everything!

I have the right to refuse the commission request without the need to explain the reason.
Please look through my galleries to make sure I am the illustrator you need for your piece! I will not copy other styles or make illustrations "similar to this artist's style".
You are purchasing a digital file of the drawing only (unless specifically discussed otherwise at the beginning of the commission!). Files will be provided as high-res PNG. Make sure to save the final work to your device.
Pricing
Prices are in EUR (€) and are agreed upon before I start with the commission. The prices listed are non-negotiable. It is your responsibility as the commissioner to calculate the cost in your respective currency before commissioning.
I will only accept PayPal transactions initiated by an invoice sent by myself. Please wait for me to send the invoice and do not send any money outside of it.
Full payment after the final approved sketch.
The prices listed are for private (non-promotional and non-commercial) use. If you wish to purchase additional rights you can find all information under "Commercial rights/Licensing"
Revisions & Refunds
Unlimited major revisions (pose changes, outfit swaps, other larger details) can be made during the sketching phase.
After the sketch is confirmed by the client and the payment is sent, a maximum of 3 minor revisions (smaller details, color adjustments) may get requested. Any further revisions will result in a fee.
The number of requested revisions will influence the time needed to complete the commission.
The client can cancel the commission at any point during the sketching phase. For refunds after the payment, the commissioner can get a 50% refund during the lineart phase. No refund will be given if progress has already moved past the lineart stage unless I cannot fulfill the remainder of your request.
Once the client receives the finished illustration and approves it, no revisions can be made after that.
Usage Rights
I'm payed for my labor and retain full rights, meaning I hold the rights over my commissions to post in my galleries and to use for publicity, prints, and merchandise etc. However, I won't use the artwork for profit if it features one of your characters without contacting you first!
My turnaround time is between 3 weeks and 2 months. If you have a specific deadline for your piece, please let me know in your initial request to confirm if I can meet it.
Please state if you are not okay with me showing the progress of your commission on my stream or social media.
If you want me to not post the finished piece as well ("secret commission") an additional fee of 50% applies.
You will receive a non-watermarked and a watermarked version of your commission after I'm done. I advice to not post the full non-watermarked version online.
You are not allowed to sell a commissioned illustration without contacting me first. I'm keeping track of who has my files and want to make sure the new owner is aware of the TOS that apply to them.
You may not make changes to the illustration on your own, nor have it edited by a 3rd party.
If you want to make changes to a design commission, a new artwork separate from my illustration needs to be created.
Commercial Rights/Licensing
The prices listed under "Commissions" are for private, non-promotional and non-commercial use - you are purchasing my labor only, not the rights of the artwork, meaning you can't use it to be redistributed in large quantities nor use it in any form that could bring income or promotes your brand. Please feel free to ask if your planned usage falls under this. If you wish to purchase additional rights, a fee applies depending on which kind of licensing rights you need. There are two types available:
type A: 1.5x multiplier of the original price for promotional rights - examples include, but are not limited to: Twitch/Youtube (thumbnail) usage, banner art for services/advertisements (Ask me if you are unsure if you fall under this category! Posting to twitter/usage as profile picture does NOT fall under this but proper credits must be given)
type B: 3x multiplier of the original price for commercial rights - examples include, but are not limited to: merchandise in any form/quantity, such as prints, apparel, accessoires, books etc.
Feel free to ask me if you are unsure if you need commercial rights. Please ask before I create the invoice for your commission.
These fees apply to both illustration commissions and drawings I create for design commissions (not the design itself).
If not discussed otherwise, the illustration will still have a subtle watermark on it.

Design (Commission) TOS
These TOS apply to all of my designs from January 2023 onwards, custom or premade!
If you bought/got one of my designs before that, please refer to the rules posted with the design back then!
If you want to make changes to a design, a new artwork separate from my illustration needs to be created. You may not make changes on your own, nor have it edited by a 3rd party. If you want me to edit something for you, feel free to reach out to discuss this.
If you or another artist redraw the character design sheet my name still needs to be properly credited ("design by nienbirb" or similar).
You are allowed to resell the character as long as you notify me about the new owner so I can make changes in my master list.
If not stated otherwise, a character design created by me can be used for commercial purposes (if you want to use my original artwork, a fee applies!)
A design created by me can not be sold for a higher price than paid during the initial purchase. Other commissioned pieces of artwork with that character can not raise the price if you choose to resell the character, you can however offer to sell those as optional add-on.
For commissions, my general terms of service still apply.
