- A story about Art, Madness, Sorrow, frustration and another bad commission experience.
I really just want a good commission once and a while and not be burdened by people who wont pay, refuse to pay or just keep me on a project without extra compensation. (btw i still haven't really recovered from this experience, living as unhealthily as possible to get it done has been a constant negative lmao)

I usually post animations on this channel and occasional speed draws every half century. And Now Im sharing my stories with you, from paranormal experiences to the worst commissions ever.
Make sure to sub so you don't miss any speed draws/ paints and animations as i have a lot of videos planned for the future! and Another video is just around the proverbial corner.
Thanks for watching ur the real MVP
I know people are saying "you shouldnt undersell yourself" or "you shouldve declined this commission", but I totally understand why youve done what youve done. Its really easy to take any commission for any price when NO ONE commissions you and you REALLY need the money, simply to feed yourself. People saying "dont undersell yourself" are usually the people who probably never went through "having no commissions and no money to pay your bills" phase
You really shouldn't under sell your work. you're worth the money and your time is valuable! :D
Thanks, Its kinda hard to put a price on my work when I'm not that confident about my skills lmao, or trying not to scare someone off
@@Puddles856 your art is genuinely good tho and I mean if Butch Hartman can overprice his commissions you can atleast price your's a bit higher and following you for a while your art skills are genuinely good better then Butch Hartman
@@theidioticghostNOT BUTCH HARTMAN 😂😂😂😂😂 OMG
Thanks for watching!
oof, i'd definitely suggest having in your tos a max amount of edits and start taking deposits on commissions so if someone bail you at least get some compensation😊
yeah that makes sense, definitely need some kind of compensation lmao
Hearing the updates about this in real time was a trip - shoulda had them talk to me, they were so difficult for no reason, like wdym you don't know what you want, YOU asked for the drawings😭
shoulda woulda coulda
@Puddles856 FOR FUTURE REFERENCE: don't be shy, let me be your manager, I'll make sure you get paid good 😌
im really tempted but also am terrified if i give you that much power....
@@Puddles856 why😭😭😭
because ik what you're capable of??
Hi! I discovered you from this vid and when you mentioned your webcomic I went to check it. I absolutely LOVED it, it’s so good and I was hooked right from the beginning. The art was stunning and the story intriguing. Anyways basically good job, keep it up, your art and story is very impressive and I’ll definitely be tuning into Alice the vampire slayer often!
thats awesome, glad you liked it lol
I totally understand this. I did 14 pieces for a "friend" for 300, got no feedback or told exactly what they wanted other than cards. Had to figure it all out, full illustrations, and then didn't get paid for months. I at least got half up front and then had given up on the rest.
I'm so glad you're free from that hell and..... Silver lining learned what not to go through? Naah I wish you never had to go through that.
Also shameless plug but it worked I love webcomics lemme just go check this out.
sorry you had to deal with that, especially when its a "friend" thats never easy or fun cause they really do expect a friend discount or something when they pull that, real scum behaviour.
I was just rewatching the catadora vid and you uploaded another commission horror story I find it ironic
not the catradora vid ;-; dbfbdn
oof what a horrible nightmare of a commission to go through. And then the add on costs... I hope you won't get another client like this again
yeah same, thanks for the suggestion! i dont think I even considered google drive because i was on the brink of madness lmao 😅
@@Puddles856 fair enough xD It was a lot of craziness lol
Woahhh your art is so awesome!!! I loved the video! :D
Thank you lol, happy to hear!
had similar commission to the point i don’t ever want to do it again if i see children book illustration commission i say no they will sneak extra or constant changing adding what they want did everything you said. i feel like same company contacted you i got similar course of events tried to refund but the website sided with me.
sorry you had to experience that, its the worst 😣
200 for a month of work. Amazing
I just stumbled upon your channel by chance and was pleasantly surprised! you're very underrated! keep it up! :D
Thanks!
MORE SUBSCRIBTIONS, WE MUST GET THIS GUY TO HOLLYWOOD.
Mate. I feel like some of this would be avoided if you got the payment upfront and laid down the law that you don't do major changes after completion. Save receipts to their requests to change during the commission, then when they wanted major changes at the end, remind them of those original conversations where they had time to request changes. Charge extra for editing or don't edit unless it's MINOR changes. It's not just underselling yourself. It's a lot of bad choices here. I also don't understand why you wouldn't just upload the files to a larger cloud and share it with them that way if you couldn't emai them. Avoid the USB situation.
@@Hierarchia i agree, hindsight is 2020, i dont get commissions very often, so really i am a bit new at the whole commission thing, for some reason the mere mention of payment or money is taboo whenever i get commissioned, overall i agree. gotta make a solid contract when it comes to offering services. (Thanks for commenting!)
This is why I don’t do commissions
thats fair
that's what happens to your voice when we VC for more than an hour😭😂
my poor voice 🥲🥲🥲
