Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our commissioning process, 50% deposits, delivery timelines, and copyright.
Typically, creating a custom personalized illustration takes between 5 to 7 business days from the moment specifications and reference photos are confirmed and advance payment is received. During peak holiday seasons or for complex multi-character wedding projects, timeline may extend to 10-14 days. If you have an urgent date, let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate rush requests.
All commissioned artworks require a 50% non-refundable advance deposit before sketching begins. This deposit secures your slot in our studio schedule and covers preliminary concept exploration. The remaining 50% balance is payable upon artwork completion and final client approval before high-resolution files or physical prints are dispatched.
Stroke-a-Doodle provides high-resolution digital files (300 DPI JPEG, PNG with transparent background, and print-ready PDF). We retain the copyright and original working software source files (Procreate/PSD). You are free to use your delivered files for personal use, printing, framing, and social media sharing.
Every single piece is hand-drawn digitally from scratch, tailored exclusively to your personal photos, body gestures, outfits, and emotional connections. We do not use automated AI filters or generic templates; each illustration involves research, composition sketch, custom color palette curation, rendering, and detail polishing.
We ship physical framed prints across India via trusted express courier partners. Digital deliverables (high-res e-invites, save-the-date cards, digital portraits) are delivered worldwide via secure download link or email at zero shipping cost.
