Frequently asked questions

Does the client own the illustration?

Not automatically. The invoice or contract should say they receive a license for specific uses; a full copyright transfer costs more and must be in writing.

What is a kill fee?

A percentage of the fee paid if the client cancels after work has begun, often 50% at sketch stage and 100% at final.
