I'm making a small personal drawing for a guy as a gift for his wife. I talked with him in person once about the project and I was wondering if I should even bother with making a contract for such a small job? I don't know him that well, but he seems very straight forward and honest so I'm not really worried about getting ripped off. I'm getting half of the payment to start and half upon completion and feel like that's safe enough. Thoughts?

Just a heads up, i have a rough understanding of these things based on what I've read online and friends showing client work. If you're not under NDA and there's nothing in the contract saying you can't use the work for portfolio purposes, you should be fine. I'd say that typically this is covered in a contract. There's usually a section covering rights of use. Have you tried talking through this with them? I don't know the entire situation, but i would call them up or meet with them in person and tell them that they're gutting your portfolio. If they're still being dicks about it though after trying to play nice I'd mention the lack of NDA and contract. Contracts are there to protect both parties. If this was covered in the contract you'd both know where this stands; if you couldn't use it you would've gotten paid more as well to compensate for the loss of promotional work for yourself and getting future work.
