My WORST Commission Ever! ☆ Art + Storytime ☆

- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- My worst commission ever! And this guy was absurd. Honestly this was the WORST commission that I have ever had. I've never even seen James the Cat and now I never want to just because of this guy.
Commissions and requests are very fun to do, but this was the worst I have ever had before! I hope to open commissions again before long if there's interest in it, but until then, please enjoy this story about my worst commission experience!

I think I need to do a pinned comment because I know that people do like I do and listen to the story while working on other things.
I realized AFTER I finished the video that it's NOT Felix the Cat the guy was talking about, it was JAMES the Cat, which is like an older UK kids show. I think that's partially why I got them mixed up, because Felix the Cat is FAR more recognizable of a name for me. Sorry for the mix up!
Bro was going FERAL over the lack of a speedpaint😭 LIKE SIR??? YOU GOT FREE ART HOW CAN U EVEN BE MAD????
That was my reaction!!! He absolutely LOST it!
I am a foot fetish artist [Yes, thats relevant] you were REALLY lucky, without despiting or under appreciating your awful experience by any means I gotta tell you had it relatively "easy" and heres why.
That weirdo moves a lot through DA and once arrived to my profile asking for a picture of James showing his feet. [Usual work for me] the problem is that this guy wanted it for free and when I denied to he would go full racist mode, homophobe, insult by nationality, etc. This would extend the same way it did with you with multi accounts. For adding he would ALSO get a picture out of your gallery or discord groups where you show your feet [some artist do that from time to time] and use that as a "bribing" strategy ; stupid considering it's in a common interest circle and people won't make fun of you. Yet the lowest thing he would recurr it's gathering pictures of cartel murders and mutilated people to sent to you as a shock technique.
I was done all of the above until earlier this month decided to release his IP on a Twitter post exposing all of the things he has done to others, with a possible minor involved. And I regret NOTHING.
I'm glad you had it better!
Definitely relieved that I had it "easy". I certainly don't view it as you downplaying my experience and I'm sorry you dealt with all of that! That's awful!!!
@@StrawberryNova But honestly it worth it. I had a massive pleasure and even some personal thankings from others for what I did. My followers were happy seeing his account privatized and scared.
I remember finding a guy who sounded exactly like the one you described, though he instead wanted random artists to do free art of some Looney Tunes self insert he did throughout DA, and Tumblr.
@teh_supar_hackr what's his name?
@@animebro14 looneytunerian. Once you go down far enough you'll start to see what I mean. He even has an alt on ether DeviantArt, or Tumblr that was used to annoy people more.
I remember the James the Cat guy. For one of the artists, he got a response he didn't like, and he proceeded to call the artist a racial slur. He then claimed it wasn't him, despite the identical email address he had never made public.
Good grief. Yeah, the guy was AWFUL.
OMG I had someone commission me who was SUCH a creep. He commissioned me to do multiple my little pony artworks, and always talked about how much he wanted to screw one of the characters, and he talked in the discord kitten shit. After he started venting about how terrible his life was I told him that this was strictly a professional relationship and he flipped out and changed his name TO SOMETHING ABOUT KILLING ME 😭 He was over a decade older than me too like EW!!
@@thebuketkid what the heck omg!!! That's terrifying! Some people are really scary!!!!
@@StrawberryNova SO glad I got out of it when I did, I plan on making a video in the future ab it bc that shit was WIIIILD
As soon as I heard "James the Cat" I was reminded of the time someone requested that my friend draw something for that show. My friend declined because they were only drawing things for a specific fandom. The James the Cat dude responded by calling my friend the n word
Oof, betting it's the same person!
@@StrawberryNova
THERE'S NO WAY IT ISN'T
Agreed tbh lol
That dude was so weird, he probably wanted to try and trace your art by using the sketch ( which might’ve been the reason why he wanted the speed paint), or maybe he was just a troll looking for an excuse to harass others. I’m glad he didn’t dox you, because people like him tend to do that sort of stuff.
By the way, where did you get the brush you used for the freckles? It looks really good!
Thank you! The brush was actually a airbrush in clip studio paint that I messed with a ton until it was great for freckles! I'm glad you like it!
Yeah, the guy was really weird, but he apparently harassed like a BUNCH of people, so I'm glad he eventually got banned from most things!
I once heard a similar story and the harassing person turned out to be 12 years old.
Yeah? I don't THINK this guy was 12, but I mean, you never kniw
You do requests if they're from your baby sisterrrr
Ikr??? It was ridiculous and off the wall!!!
And, yee, I do requests from you but that's different 😂😂😂
James the cat is a British animation show that ran i think duing the 70s then had a reboot duing the 90s the show is some what lost media up to this point
Yeah, this guy was OBSESSED with it
@@StrawberryNova weird
I have had this one commissioner who wasn’t necessarily bad in a sense more so just so annoying. She came to me from someone who had just recently commissioned me, so like they recommended me and that girl reached out. So, this girl I believe she wanted a custom from me which fine cool, the first commission she got from me went very very smoothly. Then she came back, this time she wanted art done of a character which coolio, but she sent me an image of someone else’s art and asked me for the exact pose/style which right off the bat, wtf? Like if u wanted that persons style then just commission them not me. Unfortunately I was very young and this has been when I was first starting out with commissions so I did the drawing all coolio done right. She comes back around after a few days and wants another commission, COOL, this time she wanted another custom done, and poor little kid me was like ok I can do this, so she gave me everything for the commission I drew her a sketch and she was like…. Can u change this, and this, and this, and this…. U can already see where this is going.. so thru the whole thing she kept requesting changes after changes and if you know which I’m sure you do, it’s very exhausting. Eventually I got the commission done and she was happy with it. I forgot to mention but these commissions where like dirt cheap, like very cheap because I was still learning, she comes back again to get a ref sheet done, again she goes on with wanting so many things changed, I get exhausted but it’s done. After while she starts getting very friendly with me, I mean naturally after commissioning me so many times u tend to get close with your customers, but she kept going on about how she was so broke but she wanted art and how she wants to commission me for art again but she just can’t, obviously I’m not that dumb so I don’t fall for the bait and tell her “oh man I’m sorry to hear that maybe save up some money?” Yada yada tryin to be nice. After so many times of her commissioning me (which I mean don’t get me wrong I was grateful the extra money even tho it was small was helpful) I started getting way too exhausted to keep taking on her commissions, like it was mentally and physically draining me bc she would request so many changes and all her charcater s literally looked the same so it wasn’t as if I was drawing something fresh and new. Eventually she finally found another person to obsess over and I hardly ever talk to her since.
Sorry if there’s typos or it’s hard to read but I’m tired lol just thought I’d share.
Oof, yeah, it's always rough to have people try and take advantage. I hate that that happened to you, but I'm glad you eventually got away from it!
Ahhhhh, yes... The James-the-Cat guy....
I also had an encounter with him on Twitter this year (he was harassing a mutual of mine to draw fetish art of James) and he is still just as bad as he was all those years ago.
I also blocked him when he tried asking for art and I haven't heard from him for over a month.
Heck, I was hoping he was gone. The guy is absolutely off the wall, right??
@@StrawberryNova I honestly think he's gotten worse since your last encounter with him despite what I said about him being just as bad cuz I'm looking back on his new account and... Yikes 😶😶😶
@@CedarCritter oh, gosh, really???
@@StrawberryNova Biphobia, possible racism, threatening people by sharing private pics
That's absolutely awful!
Morale of the story, just never do requests X'D 11/10 times it's a weird fetish guy that will creep on you if not outright harass you like this.
Yeah, there's a reason I really don't anymore 😂
The mention of James the cat made me surprised. That was a show from the 80's in britain i think. Although, you may have probably not heard of it aswell because most episodes are actually lost media.
Anyways, that guy should have at least been grateful for the free art. Your artystle is wonderful and your ability to perservere with this guy definitely taught you some things. I will definitely be checking out more of your work in the future!
I'm glad you like my art!
Yeah, it was certainly a wild ride of an experience! Glad it's over!
I can’t believe someone would be so upset over a free art request. I’d also be upset as the artist that I put time and work into something I ended up being harassed for. I hope he doesn’t come back. Your art is really cute and I enjoyed listening to you tell the story.
Thankfully I do not have any weird stories because I’ve never done requests.
Loved this video! 💕
I'm glad you enjoyed the art and the story! Yeah, I definitely hope he stays gone!
you play kaiju paradise?
I noticed your pfp had a striking similarity to lang
(not accusing you of stealing)
@@wannaseeamagictrick410 I’ve heard of it several times but I have not played it before. My pfp was drawn by an online friend for my birthday, it’s my own character ^^
Not sure who lang is sorry, but now I’m curious who is lang?
(Edit: just looked it up, I do think I’ve played for a few minutes but I didn’t know what was happening lol)
@@InfiniteFur a character with the same head and ears as your… fursona? also the neck floof and tail if I’m correct
plus they have the same tear drops as a fur pattern, and a similar color scheme. ok yeah now it kinda seems like it’s traced.
I had a lunatic try to get my dA account shut down becuase I had in my artist dictriptions to please ask for permission before using my art.
They called me names and used rude language, and were stocking around in the forums trying to find someone to hack my account.
Simpley because they did not like the fact that I was protective of my art.
Eventually I took it to the admins of dA and they dealt with the crazy person. But it was nuts, and a little scary.
That SOUNDS scary! I'm glad it got taken care of, but good grief!
omgg what a horrible situation ;; honestly was a little nervous this would turn into a "secretly a fetish" situation lmfao.
my worst request experience is from when i was 11! tons of strangers asking me, an 11 YEAR OLD, to draw their "sfw totally not a fetish" fetishes. only yrs later (im 15 currently) did i realize id been exploited for their weird gross fetish content :( a few years later (13 yrs) one of the same people even COMMISSIONED ME FOR MONEY to draw more fetish work. ended up refunding and blocking as soon as i realized what i was being told to draw was in fact NOT innocent loool.
Good grief, that's awful! People can be HORRIBLE sometimes, especially taking advantage of someone being young and potentially not knowing!
1:20
Hmm, you consider 60 a lot of views, then this video gets over 5K VIEWS.
Believe me, I have been UTTERLY FLABBERGASTED by this video blowing up, it has honestly thrown me for a loop! A good loop, but still! 😊
I know this dude, he joined my discord server out of nowhere at the beginning of January of this year, probably because he wanted to talk to a fan of James the Cat (Which I am and i even made fanart of the series available on my DA and Twitter) and he said some very unhinged shit (and im talking about some Misogynistic and racist shit too), not surprising since he also sent some disturbing art to my DA Dms, and when i banned him off the server last month he got so fucking mad that he even attempted to do a raid on the server (But thankfully someone notified me at the last minute and turned off invites) I've heard this man threaten the creator of the series, Kate Canning (who i feel very bad for) because she exposed his ass for sending her unhinged and despicable messages to her dms
I am a fan of the series, i will always and i do not want anything to do with this man and i hope others will do the same thing too
i am so sorry that you had to go through this the same way i had to, and you're art is very underrated, keep up the good work!
I hate that you had to go through that! The guy is completely off the wall and he was RIDICULOUS.
@@StrawberryNova he really is and he also believes in some very insane shit too like saying that he is married to and had 3 children with james (no im not kidding he actually believes that)
@@Dadork400 That is a little terrifying, no gonna lie
I'm here before you are famous 💪🏻
And also I can't believe that someone harrased you over a FREE thing.
Oh, goodness! I doubt I'll ever be famous, but I appreciate the view of confidence!
Yee, the situation was off the wall! Definitely my worst experience!
same ! also bro- ITS FREE ART- for free.. like- strawberry does speedpaints when they want to :sob: and why an speedpaint in particular is still making me confused like- bro?
If this is the same guy i think it is yes, yes he's a piece of crap, i am a nfsw artist and this guy is well known in our circles for bullying and harassing new artists into doing art of james the cat. he bullied artists to the point where several smaller artists ended up quitting, and if you go deeper and the james the cat fellow is bigot who actually harasses people for being lgbtq+. The guy was thankfully recently haulted when he doxxed by a artist he tried to bully. But who knows if that will permantly stop him. But its intersting that he was doing this outside the nsfw circles
Here's hoping it at least stops him for awhile. I'm sorry your community has had to deal with him. He was AWFUL
I have this one creep that kept asking me for child smut and bondage which made me switch requests to my only three trusted friends on DA. That’s my most recent.
Ugh, that sounds awful! Some people can just be total creeps!!!
The requester sounds like a creep. It's astounding how sick in the head someone can be.
It's always on DA lol jk
@@yummiesgummiesbear I mean, you're right 😂
I think ur content is so underrated and btw Felix the cat is a a nsfw show for adults. Also awesome art
Thank you!!!
Also thank you, my partner had to point out my mistake for me and that totally explained my mess up 😂 the show in question I believe was JAMES the cat, so my brain just flipped the names, oops!
Felix the cat is that old cartoon from the 20s, I think the adult cartoon you're thinking of is FRITZ the cat.
Oh! Yup, Fritz the cat was the NSFW one
Whole lotta cartoon cats hah!
@@StrawberryNovaI saw some images of it and let’s say…
it’s got really good clothing art and good posing. uhhmmm
“we’re not rated x for nothing” describes it perfectly
Oh my god I know who you're talking about.
He joined my stream once a few years ago and requested James the cat. I told him I only did Undertale art at the time. He said I could draw the character in a sans costume and I said no.
He called me the n word in response. He behaved this way to a friend of mine too in their stream
I peeped his Twitter a few years ago and he blocked someone for drawing James the cat wrong.
It's the coffee guy right?? There's no way it's not the same person oh my god
Yup!!! I hate that you've had to deal with him, too. He was *awful*!
what a weirdo.. hope he doesnt bother u again
I hope not! He really was strange!
ur art is amazing!!! this story was such a wild ride and i know too many artist who have dealt with someone like that.
I am a NSFW artist and love my art, its fun, and tbh its therapeutic for me. I'm also non-binary but still look VERY femme. I had a man hit me up and ask for a very cheap commission, it was literally a $5 rough sketch of a head. I drew it and gave it to him and he loved it. I thought that would be it, and after I gave him the comm, I posted a selfie. He then kept asking me about my gender and asking what I was born as. I didnt feel comfortable disclosing that. Anyway weeks pass and he asks me for another comm but more expensive. I get it done quickly and he loved it! I was happy with it, but he started again, but this time i ignored it. He STALKED all my social media! He even messaged my husband demanding to know the gender I was born as. He freaked out and said I was scamming men into buying my art, baiting them as a hot woman. LMFAO. This was a few years ago, i think he left twitter!!
Good grief!!!! I'm VERY glad you got away from that! People acting like that is INFURIATING. Some just don't know when to quit, but I am DEFINITELY thankful that you don't have to deal with him anymore!
I have a question!
so uh, what do you do if someone asks you to make nsfw art as an SFW artist
I make strictly sfw stuff
@@wannaseeamagictrick410 be firm, and say you dont do NSFW things because u dont feel comfortable. stand ur ground and block if anyone tries to pressure you!!
@@wannaseeamagictrick410 Definitely agree with @flower_of_zaun
Being an artist doesn't mean you aren't allowed to have boundaries! You're allowed to be firm and refuse a piece of you aren't comfortable with doing it.
@@flower_of_zaun thanks
Hi, a few years ago i was also approched by this person and when i refused to draw that character for free he sent me 5 paypal invoices, tried to hack my paypal and all of my social media and sent me threats, gore and illegal porn. I cant believe hes still at it. Im so sorry.
He sent you gore and all that?? Holy crap!! Omg!!
I also am confused why he sent you PayPal invoices, like wth
@StrawberryNova i dont know either, and at the time he did much worse to someone that was like 13-14 too. I called the police but they couldn't do anything because he was in england
Good grief, that's horrible!!!!
Sounds like one of those people that dm
"You need to give me free art because I'm poor and you're prices are too expensive"
Or asking for a multiple revisions for a raffle prize piece
Dialed up to 11 since he already GOT free art. Like he was absolutely absurd!
Yeah, people like that are so dumb because art is a NOT a necessity of life, it's a luxury! Like, come on people, you do not NEED free art!
I clicked and saw “505 subscribers” and was SHOCKED- your art is so good I’m definitely subbing!
Oh my goodness, thank you! Honestly, I've been stunned to get up to 500! It's been a real shock! 💙
@@StrawberryNova Well, congratulations!
@@StrawberryNovaI'm back bitch and I'm stronger now it's joever for you.
Dude you are so underrated and your art is SO CUTE!!!! I'm really sorry this happened to you, that guy sounds like a total jerk and I'm very glad that he doesn't seem to be bothering you anymore.
Keep up the good work, regardless! You've earned a new sub.
Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you like the art! 💙
I'm hoping the guy doesn't get many opportunities to bother others, cuz that whole thing was just bad
I like your art and I’m sorry you had to talk to that guy, some people are just weird.
Thank you so much!
He really was strange
I can't help but wonder how people end up like that, desperate for negative attention from strangers on the internet to the point where they would waste MONTHS of their lives holding onto a fake grudge for the sake of trolling. Like seriously? Get a life lol
Anyway, very cute drawing! Sorry that you had to put up with that guy!
Thank you! Glad you like the art!
Honestly, I have no idea. The guy was definitely obsessed and it was *certainly* frustrating! I'm just relieved that it's done and I honestly sat on the thing for a couple of years before sharing just out of anxiety of him popping up again.
Gosh, such a horrible guy, I’m so sorry you had to go through that! Your art is wonderful, I’ve subbed!
Thank you so much!
Honestly, yeah, he was awful!
your art is so pretty!
Oh goodness, thank you!!!
Can't understand why anyone would decide to act like this after getting FREE art, like bro how entitled do you have to be? Btw your art looks rlly cool :]
Thank you!
Yeah the guy was honestly AWFUL!
i had a run in with this.....gentleman
@@Cybermoonmage oh my gosh, did you really? I hate that for you, he was absurd!
@@StrawberryNova so little note, I current have a boyfriend, and after he spammed me with multiple accounts to draw this jame the cat and I told him " no I need money first" he called me the F word for gay people
@@Cybermoonmage not surprised by that. I got called that and quite a few other things. Hate that you had to deal with him!
@@StrawberryNova yea... I was debating if i should make a video about him because I do have the screenshots of him harassing me and my friends for refusing to draw that character in +18 art.
dude is totally unhinged
@@Cybermoonmage I definitely don't blame you if you do make a video! Honestly, he was ridiculous!
Oh God, I just feel bad for anyone that grew up with/likes James or Felix the cat dude, but especially for the people who were affected by this guy, hope for the best for all of you dear lord…
Thankfully, he's gone now, or at least seems to be!
@MumbleThePenguin I’m very sorry, really sucks when that happens.
Nahhh bro's chat logs would be the laughing stock in my friend's server if I got that shit 😭
The guy was ABSURD!
How do you not know what Felix the cat is? :O Its a retro cartoon, like Mickey Mouse or Betty Boop. He had a magic bag :P There was a short animated show which one of my early cartoon idols worked on. There was even a weird as hell movie from the 80s which I think is a work of art lol.
Yeah, I realized AFTER I finished putting it together why it was familiar. The actual show that the person was obsessed with was from the UK and called JAMES the Cat.
I am sorry, afterwards I read the comments and saw that lol. You realize your gonna be seeing this comment a lot right?@@StrawberryNova
@@jrlpixels421 No problem at all! I had it pop up on screen with the video, but yeah, I've been seeing it a lot lol
@@StrawberryNova I was just listening to you while doing my own stuff :3
@@jrlpixels421 No problem at all! I do the same thing, honestly, so I get it.
ok I'm pretty sure I know who your talking about he has many accounts and begs for free art of that character but he has a piss poor attitude
Tbh you're probably spot on about who it is. My dealing with him SUCKED
tbh this is inspiring me to talk abt my commission stories. i dont do commissions anymore for now, so i think ill share them.
I hope you do! Sharing stories like this can be fun, and sometimes sharing chaotic ones can be a little cathartic ☺️
I love that girl's freckles. They look so lifelike. It's a great picture overall, but I think the freckles are the best part.
Thank you! I love putting freckles on my characters, I think they're such a nice detail!
Oh you’re so underrated!! I’m excited to see more of your videos :D
Oh gosh, thank you so much!!!
This dude actually sucks. You make the most amazing art, and the fact he continued to harass you because you didn’t make a speedpaint?? Wtf! And also the fact he harassed minors is just disgusting, and so horrible. I hope he gets kicked off all social media sites.
Overall great video and I hope you continue doing commissions! Your channel is amazing new subbie ❤
Thank you! I'm glad that you like my art!!! 💙
I am honestly so confused how people can act so terrible to artists. Your art is amazing and if i had to comission somebody you would most likely be on that list
Thank you for the compliment!!!
Honestly, the guy had me absolutely baffled. I'd never had someone act like that before!
@@StrawberryNova No problem! also yeah, if that was me. I wouldve been shocked too, Thankfully im not doing commissions (not yet at least. I might hah)
@@CloverBall Commissions are honestly pretty fun! Sometimes you can get bad people, but for me they've been few and far between
Your art is super cute!

@@StrawberryNovaOf course, you mentioned you don’t go by she/her pronouns what pronouns do you use?
@@LemonKookys I go by he/they
I appreciate you asking!
Hearing you talk about Felix the Cat made me feel Fekkin ancient… 💀
Worst part is that I completely misspoke, because I SHOULD have been saying "James the Cat"
the audacity to act like this over a REQUEST! a FREE drawing!! im flabbergasted ಥ_ಥ
I know! It was so off the wall!!! At least I got an entertaining story out of it!
I once had somebody nitpick over the exact shape of something on their character. For eight hours. Eight entire hours. On top of that, they changed their mind. Repeatedly. I got so frustrated, I threw something at the wall, and never took a commission from them again, and charged them WAY extra for the time and frustration.
Good grief, that sounds EXTREMELY frustrating! Idk that I could deal.woth that specifically, that sounds AWFUL.
I would've closed shop
Don't blame. I certainly would have blacklisted them from commissioning me
Felix the cat is my childhood😭 but it’s not really two cats.. it’s a main character (Felix) who is a black cat and has a bag of tricks. An evil scientists and poindexter try and capture Felix but he always escapes. The one I watched is very old from the 1900s. It’s from America I think but maybe this guy was talking a bout a different Felix the cat. Sorry about my ramblings I really enjoyed your video. You just awakened a nostalgic memory in my brain.❤️❤️
I'm glad I could unlock that memory!
Yeah, I completely misspoke in the video, it was actually a UK show called James the Cat
ohhh that makes sense :)@@StrawberryNova
also just wanted to say ur accent is very comforting, reminds me of my friend from a tattoo academy, i miss her tbh
Does it? Well I'm glad it makes you feel better! ☺️ I tend to get a little self conscious about it
You need more subs dude you are amazing. There's no way you only have 424 subs you are so talented with your art!
Oh, good ess, thank you! Honestly, I'm STUNNED to have gotten as many subs as I have! I'm just so glad that people enjoy my art!
For a moment I thought this was about Fritz the Cat [an X-rated movie] and I was so confused because that's NOT a kids show lol
😂 trying to keep the name straight has been DIFFICULT. And in the video I got it wrong anyway, I kept saying Felix the Cat instead of James the Cat 😂
Hold up you are so underrated what 😭🙏
Thank you!!!
OOOOOOO.. tea time lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was definitely QUITE the situation!
Bro Felix the cat is an American cartoon
THANK YOU SO MUCH
That explains where I got that from. The one I meant was called James the Cat, but I really didn't have it in me to rerecord my audio
Whats the project your working on? Who are the characters? im so curious :00
Oh! It's somewhat slow going at the moment - very EARLY on - but I WILL say that I'm working on an eventual webcomic!
Hello I like your work, I am always curious about art commissions. Did you do commissions on DeviantArt only or what else?
Hi! At the moment my commissions are closed while I revamp things, but I will be opening them soon! I can be contacted on DeviantArt or my Twitter to figure out details!
Off topic but your voice is super cool!
Thank you! That's so nice, I appreciate it! 😊
I do have weird one
So it wasn’t request
They guy ask me to draw his sister and because my country doesn’t allow to show women faces i ask him to describe her
And she was like
Tall . Sleepy hot eyes with juicy lips short hair
And i was like ughh… ok maybe he like his sister haha…
And then he ask me to draw her with sexy body…
And dumb me was like hahah maybe his sister is extremely hot hahah..
But when he send me pics for poses I blocked him immediately
No he didn’t want me to draw his sister he wanted me to draw extremely hot anime girl from illegal website hahah…
Good grief! Glad you blocked him, sounds like he was a total creep!!!
This dude sounds unhinged
He definitely seemed to be. It was a bad situation, honestly. Could DEFINITELY have been worse!
i was mesmerised by your drawing here, what a beautiful character
sorry you had to deal with this bozo, glad you're still so positive & he left you alone in the end :)
about you being a small channel, i think you deserve more subs & views. on YT, if you have positive data from a video, doing a follow-up can help if you have any other stories, also trying to rank in search can help your channel grow :D good luck on your YT journey, & hope you get that patreon running soon 🎉
Thank you so much for the tips! I definitely appreciate it!
And I'm so glad that you like the art! I'm so glad that people are enjoying it! 😊
I can’t draw animals either and please tell me I won’t ever go through stuff like this too ;-;
Hopefully not! The guy was strange!
phew
your art is so pretty i was so shocked to see you only had 500 subs you deserve way more :0
Oh, gosh, thank you!!!
I'VE ENCOUNTERED THIS GUY OH MY GOD, I WAS GIVING OUT FREE ART AT THE TIME (Cause I was young and bored and just liked drawing things for people) I STILL HAVE THE ART SOMEWHERE ON MY OLD TWITTER ACCOUNT LOL
Omg did you really???
@@StrawberryNova Ya I remember being confused but shrugging it off as "Well I guess some people like fanart of their favourite characters" and I had to go back to find it and make sure it was actually there but it is indeed on my account LOL
I hope you didn't have too rough of a time with him!
@@StrawberryNova Thankfully not, I drew the art but never got anything further since I never messaged him in dms and it was solely in tweets that we talked, maybe that had something to do with it
@wonder_exists likely so but I'm glad it didn't go awful!
I remember one time i tried doing commission on discord and someone said they would pay 4 dollars for my art but when the sketch they desided to lower it to $1 which i just took and the person would keep making excuses for not giving saying they "were at the gym" and after a week i got annoyed and talked about the commission on the server and the server got mad and he said "i will pay now" and when i dmed him he said it was my fault and he wasnt going to pay and a few days later when i brought it up to him again he said he was never going to pay and my art suck and just said that so "it doesnt hurt your feelings" and then that dude would go around in the server acting like mr tough guy so that happened (also love ur art it adorable)
I'm glad you like the art! I HATE that you went through that sort of thing. It's awful and some people can be absolutely AWFUL when it comes to commissions
@@StrawberryNova ya but it was a bit my fault since I did sketch befor getting payment but it was my first so I didn’t really know how to do
@@daofficerofthenoodles7504 Definitely happened to me when I was starting out! I wouldn't say it was your fault so much as someone else just taking advantage
@@StrawberryNova prob since that guy was a weirdo that said they wanted the art to "get hard too"
How do you only have a couple hundred subscribers? Your art is amazing, and you’re a great storyteller (even if said-story isn’t the happiest.)
Thank you so much! That honestly means a lot! 💙
Omg I love your art!!!! It’s so cool!!! You’re truly underrated dude! ❤️
Thank you so much!!!
I love the way you talk!! Like your pacing and everything is so nice for me lol, like I didn’t get bored watching your video like I do with a lot of other videos. I can see you going very far!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that a ton 💙
it’s just like all the other annoying art youtubers lol. they sound all the same
@@paulwoodford1984 that’s unnecessarily mean. If you don’t like it just… don’t watch it? And why comment???
Honestly, I've just ignored them since they commented that. Trolls are inevitable, best course of action is to not feed them with the attention they're after 💙
@@StrawberryNova that’s good! Just know there will always be way more people supporting you than people trolling. Love your content and will 100% keep tuning in :D
i love u !
Glad you like the content!
i had a similar experience, but it was with writing and not drawing. i had requests open and i mostly got fanfic requests because thats what i wrote the most but this person requested me to write a story between these two characters that would be shipped, and i was fine with that cause i kinda liked the ship but after a while they started requesting things i had clearly stated i wouldnt write, like......... mpreg (both characters were cis guys. which is kind of transphobic), r*pe, smut and a kinda uncomfortable relationship between an adult character and a character who was a minor and THEY WANTED ME TO RP WITH THEM ABOUT THAT. and im a minor and i KNOW that that person wasnt a minor too so it was really uncomfortable for me. in the end i deleted all the socials i had that they had access to and blocked them in my new accounts just in case.
I also draw and I really want to start doing commissions one day but the main thing that stops me is the fear that something like what happened to you would happen to me, or all the gross shit that guy did happening to me. im glad you could get out of that uncomfortable situation and I hope that guy is never able to get in contact with you ever again
I definitely hope that you never have to deal with any more of that sort of thing! That sounds absolutely awful!
Harassing someone over something free is ridiculous. I am sorry you had to go through something like that.
Thanks
It was certainly quite the ride while it was going on, but fortunately word about him got around pretty quick! I think he ultimately got suspended from most platforms, so now he mostly just can't bug people?
@@StrawberryNova that's good to hear.
Nice vid :)
Thank you!!!
i only know about felix the cat because of my dad 😆
Yeah, DEFINITELY before my time! Lmao
I still can't believe that I kept saying Felix the cat when I meant James the cat
204th sub, keep up the great art
Thank you!!!!
Remember me when you get 100000m😊 ❤❤❤🎉🎉
Wow....i hate the internet sometimes.
I can completely agree lol
If i log into my dA i could explain more since I still have the note. But years ago somebody sent me a request. It was like, a bunch of sonic characters (I believe also paired off) in a hotel room in their socks (and iirc they asked for a lot of characters, so it'd be a big piece/ time consuming) I wasnt too fond of the idea but w/e (i forget how old I was) like a week or so later they ask if its done, I say no (I dont think I even started) and id have to look but it felt like every few days they asked if it was done (keep in mind, this was a request- for free- not a commission. there was zero payment.(even if it was i wouldve taken payment at the end) so eventually the dude gets mad and is like 'forget you and forget the commission!!" to which i reminded them 'this wasnt a commission. this was a request'
the notes are buried in my dA ill have to look at them again
Experiences like that are awful! I hate how entitled people are!
Your art is amazing!
Oh my goodness, thank you!!!!
I did an art request once, didn't realize it was fetish related until later
Oof, yeah, that kind of thing happens a lot and it sucks
oh mood. Especially when they keep asking for the same thing over and over and later on youre like 'oh...that was the guy's fetish...'
@@shipper-of-heart8898 exactly omg!
You porbably got felix the cat from the more popular character felix the cat (Shocking, I know).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_the_Cat
Yeah, that's what it was. My brain flip flopped the characters cuz the one I MEANT was James the Cat
Bro I think I lost more none existent brain cells at this dudes logic of why your a scammer?? 😭
(But also may I say I your art style is stunning! You deserve more subscribers!!)
He was really out there tbh
Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you enjoy it! 💙
