Ok, so I wanted to make this clear for future commissions and such, since I had experiences with this many times this year from different people, and I usually try not to make rant journals about commission stuff unless I really have to.
If i'm asked for a commission, and it's something I clearly say "i'm uncomfortable with" PLEASE respect that, and please don't treat me like i'm the only artist in the world who has to do it for you because reasons. There's things I don't draw that many other artists will do, just look for those types of artists who does the things I don't draw. Just because something unfortunate is happening for you, doesn't mean you should try and shame me and try to manipulate me into drawing something for I don't agree with, like a guilt trip scheme, especially after me telling you I don't draw that stuff way before you asked art of me. When ppl try that on me, it looks like they're wanting to break me from going by my standards to make themselves feel superior, and I don't appreciate that, especially when they're aware of what they're doing violates what I said and find humor in it lowkey.
"No" means "No". I try to be respectful in this all the time but when I try, people keep trying to kick mud in my face and disrespect me, then ppl look at me complaining about it as being bad when I get fed up of situations and become mean, not realizing what happened before it came to that. If losing commissions or commissioners is my punishment for sticking to being myself, i'll gladly go this route. I'll pick being unpopular and happy with what I draw for profit over being popular for something I do just to make money and be unhappy and uncomfortable with what i'm drawing. Like if someone asked me to draw something intensely immoral, like something anti-semetic for 5k$, i'll gladly decline it. But yeah, rant done.
