@RainyRentyn I've had 2 commission fully paid for back in the beginning of 2024. We had an okay communication until they just stopped replying all together. The last reply they had for me was back on Dec. 8 of 2024. Now it's 2026 and I'm pretty sure I'm not getting anything, I'm still sad.
How does this keep happening???
- An artist starts taking commissions
- They take on too many...
- Artist is also always posting about how they are also out of money too...
- Patient commissioners are too patient and let the artist go without much communication or "bothering"
- Lots of time passes... sometimes a YEAR or more without the work being done
- Commissioner starts reaching out but often gets ignored or if they do get a response its "soon it will be done"
- Doesn't get any response until they make a call out post
- The artist then has to write a huge post about how they are overworking themselves to finish everything or giving refunds...
If you're an artist, learn to communicate actual answers... not just tell people what they wanna hear. It hurts to upset people, but it's worse to ruin your reputation because you want to make everyone happy but you legit can't cause you over booked yourself. Most people will be understanding if you are honest. Also some advice, don't accept money for a project until you are STARTING THE PROJECT.
If you are a commissioner, I know what ts like to not wanna rush somoene, but stand yp for yourself. No art should be taking over 6 months to do after you have paid unless its a huge project that has been explained as needing to take that long.
This type of situation cant keep happening. It sucks for everyone involved.
