The Blame Game - Artists vs Commissioners vs Makers
9 years ago
Notice lately many Makers are playing the Blame Game.
Look if you take on too many commissions or too much work blaming the community or the Universe isn't going to fix the problem.
The problem is simply you couldn't handle the work!
Look I have graduated from one of the hardest Art Colleges in the United States - The Art Center Design College!
Do they care what amazing artwork that you do? No!.. they push you to be an amazing artist and to get Stuff done on TIME!
Sure you'll get burned out on certain things or maybe even have a mental break down but when you are working for Hollywood or any Major Studio they don't care and you will be Fired! So be glad you had someone get angry at you and depending on the people. They can be very patient but in all seriousness having to wait a 1 or 2 years for something can be seen as unacceptable especially when you paid money for something you don't physically have.
So dealing with certain people outside of Hollywood can be easier depending on who you Commission.
Now on the flip side sometimes people can be really annoying, this is why it is probably a good idea that someone set up a
Furry Maker Site: which gives feedback on people for being patient or how many other commissions had this person paid etc.
Like an EBAY ranking. So that way Art Commissioners don't fall into being ripped off by some 17 year old kid who didn't have permission to buy something from you.
This is also why you need a contract with the people and if you break the contract guess who is at fault?
The person who broke the contracts and that can be the commissioner or the Artist!
Now stop blaming the community for problems that you have created
