Plans for future commissions!
8 years ago
So, I'm kinda sick of the tumblr freelance experience.
Not that I don't like the amazing customers I've had, but I have had my share of people asking me to lower prices, or demanding me to work faster. In the future, after I finish this batch of commissions, I'm going to open and remain exclusively here, doing furry commissions (probably), as well as adoptables. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've been told this community is far more patient and less likely to demand prices be lowered to absolutely nothing. I love drawing, but I can't work for 60$ for a full-rendered portrait. It doesn't pay the bills.

I think that if someone tries to badger you into lowering your prices or say it's not worth that price then they probably don't deserve any of your art tbqh. Or any art at all. :v
I hope you get lots of patient and understanding customers over here!
I've also had a few instances of commissioners from tumblr having ridiculous expectations in terms of price/times things need to be done...
But yeah I'm sure FA will treat you better about that kind of thing, and I'm super sure you'll get tons of customers!
