Nipping a problem in the bud
7 years ago
so, first off, this is a dirty laundry journal.
If you don't care for gossip (and seriously, you shouldn't) - just move on. You have better things to do with your time.
Any rate, I'm going to clarify something real quick.
ARTISTS HAVE A RIGHT OF REFUSAL. This means we also don't have to explain WHY. We can just flat out refuse to do a gig (granted refund the cash if applicable)
and on that note
- I don't draw herms/futas/etc. chicks with dicks and all that.
- If you draw them, that's your own business. I don't care that much. But I don't draw it.
with that being said, here's where I have to restate something.
- that means I will not draw a commission of a herm/futa
- that also means i will not draw a commission of a herm/futa without the dick
- I also give very strong warnings to everyone on this note (when applicable): do not try to trick me into drawing a herm/futa character
I've had this happen to me a few times, and I've lost patience on the point.
- I also give very strong warnings on this point - if I catch you trying to trick me into drawing a herm/futa I WILL BAN YOU.
- because that means you don't respect my right of refusal and I don't have to put up with childish shit like that.
ok, everyone on the same page?
Here's where it gets to dirty laundry time. I don't WANT to do this, but the person has gone out of their way to get under my skin so here we go.
violazierau tried to trick me into drawing their herm/futa character
so I banned them
There was extenuating circumstances regarding the issue. The trick they tried to employ went as follows (paraphrased)
- "Draw this asari" (links to a 3 foot dong'd asari)
- "I didn't mean draw THIS asari, just a random one similar to it"
- so I draw a random one with a few modifications to where it was a new character (different clothing, colors, build, etc). Basically making it a new character
- they got mad and said "I told you to draw this asari" referring back to the herm
- this is where the ban came in
Any rate, a friend of mine, who knew about this bullshit, offered to adopt this new character from me. So i let them.
There's that's the short of it.
And it's seriously a pain in my ass that I have to do this owing to a dumbass client, yet here we are.
either ViolaZierau herself (under a dummy account) or a friend of hers tried to say "YOU SOLD HER CHARACTER" and defame me. So, I get to pre-emptively post this dirty laundry journal in order to clear the air.
This is the last time you'll hear me talk about it.
- and please note that this is the first time I've EVER had to call out anyone specifically.
- even that moocher who was trying to steal dopts from other people? I left his name out and they got the hint immediately.
So yeah, don't be that guy.

FA+

It only made me wonder in a related sense, as I don't have any futa or herm characters. Actually, one, sorta, but it's more an alternate form and not a character and not one I draw much or have asked you to draw.
The related was I'm not sure I really need two anthro-cat pirates, and I was considering horizontally flipping Bonnie Reed and using it as another picture of my Main (who is not a herm), and now I'm not sure that's okay? I thought it might be, because 'all rights', but then perhaps not, because making a change, mildly deceitful or seemingly tricky and such.
so here's a shot-in-the-dark attempt to answer the question blindly? lol
I am serious in that it's a clean-hands transaction with any dopts. Anything you do after purchase is your call. I'm not gonna hold it against you or nothing, so do what you see fit. ^__^
the only way it would change would be FUTURE drawings of any characters IF the characters were changed between purchase and follow-up.
but honestly, at that point, it'd be you asking a commission of YOUR character. so standard practices would apply.
And also, like I said, it's more a matter of willful deceit. any time a client is open and willing to talk about it there's zero reason to worry about punishment. I might decline, I might not, but that's the worse that can happen.
hopefully that makes sense ^^;
i had some thing like this happen to me recently. I didnt do the commission but this person just kept trying to find a loop hole to get me to draw some thing for a commission that I wouldnt do, so after awhile i just stopped responding to them
