Every piece of art created by TUF Designs is a bespoke project built from the ground up. To protect the integrity of the work and the studio, all illustrations are subject to the following artwork licensing terms. By commissioning a project, you agree to these terms.
TUF Designs retains all intellectual property rights and ownership of the original digital files and designs. You are purchasing a license to use the art, not the art itself, unless a “Full Rights Transfer” is purchased in writing.
While TUF Designs retains the copyright to all illustrations, we guarantee that any custom artwork created specifically for you will never be resold to another client or mass-produced by me for retail. Your build is unique, and your artwork should be too.
Included with all standard vehicle commissions.
• What it is: High-resolution raster files (PNG/JPG) intended for personal enjoyment.
• What you can do: Print it for your garage, put it on a personal shirt, use it as your social media profile picture, or give it as a gift.
• What you CANNOT do: You cannot sell the artwork, use it to promote a business, or print it on merchandise for resale.
Required for shops, events, and influencers.
• What it is: A license allowing you to use the artwork to promote your business, shop, or brand.
• What you can do: Use the art for logos, business cards, shop banners, and social media marketing.
• Vector Files: If your project requires vector files (.AI / .SVG) for large-scale screen printing or signage, a Commercial License is required.
• Note: This does not transfer ownership; it grants permission for business use.
For clients requiring total control and exclusive ownership (typically for major apparel brands or corporate logos), a Full Rights Transfer is available for an additional premium fee. This removes TUF Designs’ claim to the artwork.
Unless a “Non-Disclosure Agreement” (NDA) is signed and paid for, TUF Designs reserves the right to display all artwork—including works in progress—on social media, websites, and in promotional portfolios. This is how we show the world the quality of the builds we work on.
