Question for the Artists
a year ago
General
I've been considering opening up my comms to more public eye. They have been 'friends only' for a while now, but lately none of my friends have the funds- or interest, I won't judge. However, there's a hurdle involved, and I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it, or what options I have regarding open commissions.
There's some things I just don't want to draw, and won't have any fun doing so.
I know that's a simple thing, but my brain is far less simple and it often refuses tasks it does not enjoy. Should I do YCH's with species and/or gender limits? Should I do Patreon work and draw what I please? Do I bite the bullet and take the comms as they come until I've established myself further as an artist? Any feedback is appreciated, I'm still very new to the scene of taking commissions and don't want to back myself into a wall.

perhaps a TOS is what you're looking for? can just specify in your comms page that you won't draw certain things, a lot of artists do that

OP
Which I already have, but it doesn't cover some more narrow elements. I suppose it's just a simple matter of standing where I want to with my art, and not worrying about 'disappointing' anyone if I refuse a commission. It's my art, after all.
