@ByeBuyingPie@JesseCox Also as someone who has made fursuits, looking at the pattern they've drawn out and comparing it to the character design, there is absolutely no reason as to why it would be patterned that way??
important reminder: if you are still engaging with the hp franchise you are hurting trans people. separate the art from the artist does not apply when the artist does this. putting nostalgia above human rights is a display of weak character. 🏳️��⚧️
BEWARE of Francesco Basile. If you see this name on Paypal and they're trying to commission you, then it's best if you don't proceed with the commission.
I've made 3 art for him and he filed a chargeback on ALL of them. This includes ALL the artists he has tried to commission!
@DymeArachnyd He then closed the conversation, changed his screen name to "why am I always treated like shit?" And went to my public comments to keep arguing, saying I was "blackmailing" him.
So uh
Yeah this is why I said "former friend" in the beginning.
@DymeArachnyd He went on about his mental health again, told me I was being disrespectful and how artists should treat their clients better, and that I am what's wrong with the furry art community.
@DymeArachnyd I said that I thought he had gone over my prices already, which he once again confirmed he did, but that he thought it would be less since he said no background, when my comm info stated transparent background, with an alternative simple pattern one as a free addon.
@DymeArachnyd Also bonus story;
I was still taking payment after the sketch, but a former friend asked for a comm, I asked if he had checked my prices, he said he did.
When I asked what he wanted he was kinda vague, so for clarification I sent him screenshots of my examples
