You ever approach an artist about a custom and they seem interested and friendly and they tell you "Sure thing as soon as I'm done." but that never comes? You wait and you wait and time passes and nothing comes up about it, no messages, no updates, no nothing, and then after you've given up hope you see something from the artist that screams back to that thing you talked with them about? For someone else?

Yeah, I just had that happen to me.

Don't know what I did wrong, I thought I was nice enough about everything, very polite and understanding, and yet when I see it it's just... it's how I imagined my thing would be, same theme, same sort of shape, only difference being the gender which as it was anyways wouldn't have been a very defining feature...

I wish people would just be honest.
