Question on my mind
3 years ago
Is there a reason artists don't want to post commissions I purchased from them to public?
This is a recurring thing. The artists don't have anything in ToS that say they refuse to post commissioned works in public. Most of the aforementioned artists post NSFW on the reg.
Is it something that I do?

Is it me?

I don't think its something commissioners intentionally do to artists, but is something that can happen if the individuals have busy lives away from the internet as well.
i've only ever seen one instance where someone didn't upload art because they didn't like it/the person who commed it, and let's just say they didn't last long in the fandom after that
I know that different artists do things differently. I also respect that not everyone wants to show every work they complete.
But if nothing is said to me, I feel cornered in my own mind.
For example, there are a ton of SFW artists that dabble in NSFW stuff. While they might be comfortable with drawing NSFW for other people, they might not be comfortable with sharing it on their own channels because again, that's not their brand.
Personally speaking, I'm not into vore myself, but if someone asked me to do vore as a commission, I might be comfortable with drawing it for them on the condition that they share it on their own channels, but I might not be comfortable with it on my own channels. It's just not my bag. I want to be known as the slime guy, not the vore guy.
Maybe they have Patreon or similar where people can pay to view other artworks, or in some other cases they have alt accounts and separate galleries for content that doesn't fit their usual niche.
Also, I could ask them if I could upload them too, or if they want to keep things in private. Sometimes I don't ask at all and just put things uploaded~
