Some Explanations...
4 years ago
I'm writing this 'cause I actually didn't say everything on my problem with (https://www.deviantart.com/asakuism) yet. Yesterday I wrote this journal entry (https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9909682/ - I very recommend to read this one as first for having the context). Now I'm gonna explain what went wrong step by step...
After two commissions I asked for another comic at the artist and he agreed but on the next day he suddenly said this:
"I'm sorry but upon closer consideration I have decided that I can't accept this commission, the reason being, a naked guy chasing down a woman may be taken out of context and can ,consequently, get me into troubles with certain kind of people. I could do it if it were in a sexual context but I fear that's not the case."
I was trying to find a solution. First, I asked him:
"If you're so afraid about that, we can make this comic as private and no of us will upload it. Will it be OK then?"
...but he said:
"I'm sorry but this is not up to discussion, if you have another idea Im happy to review it and see if I'm capable of drawing it, but if really want this one Im sorry but I cant draw it"
Then I said this:
"I need your help 'cause now I don't know what can I ask you for and what I can't. I also need to avoid something and in my case is another dnial."
He said:
"You´re making this bigger than it is, I cant help you with that"
Isn't that nice of him how "cooperative" he is? :/
Finally, I asked him for "fixing" the story of my comic so he could do that without any problem. He said:
"Sure, Ill send a sketch later"
...only to say this later:
"Sorry, I don´t think I can fix it, I thought I could do it by changin just a panel and some dialog but I was wrong, do you have another idea that you think I can draw?"
So I gave him another idea but after that he said this:
"I see nothing wrong there but I still dont think I can draw it, sorry most likely its just my problem I cant seem to get motivated to draw those characters anymore.
I cant accept to draw it, sorry, but good luck finding somebody else it seems you already are doing that anyway"
The message was clear - I'll never buy anything at him anymore. I was so mad I've decided to ask him for a refund of my money for the previous commissions (90$) with an explanation I can't even look at his works he's done for me so I don't need them anymore if he's gonna stop doing anything I ask him for. I knew he's not gonna refund me anything but his reaction was quite painful to me:
"Thats not how it works, I could refund you if you paid for something and for some reason I wasnt able to complete the job but so far I have finished all what you paid me for, if you think Im being unreasonable jusk ask any other artist or friend, Im pretty sure they'll side with me on this. Im really sorry but if you keep being this unreasonable I'll have to ban you from my commissions, expose you as an ill intentioned client and report you as a thief, because you're essentially suggesting that you are going to take money from me."
If he had been a nice guy, would he say such a cruel things to me like this? Anyway, I said I just wanted to show him how mad I am on him 'cause I feel lied by him, especially he's the one he started this kind of relationship as he replied on my announcement. He stayed totally insensitive on my feelings and decided to block me with saying how terrible client I am.
Later, I discovered these tweets on his Twitter:

See? They're all about me! I don't care he didn't use my name there. Just imagine how mad was I after reading all of these. He's definitely proud of how did he treat me. Also, his words give us no doubt about his policy. He can deny every commission, even those ones which theoretically don't brake his commissions' terms in any way like in my case for example. Thanks to that, I have no doubt he's definitely not the artist I was seeking for so why the hell did he reply on my announcement? To lie me? To make me disappointed? Did he think he can make just 2-3 commissions and then I'll just leave him alone? Damn! I thought I've written "I Seek for Artists", not "I Seek for Artists Who Are Douchebags".
I realize some of people are gonna hate me after reading this but I'm not writing this 'casue I'm a bitch who say only bad things about people. For example, recently I was talking with another artist who replied on my announcement and that one is really nice. A one really wanted to work for me but unfortunately, it turned out he's definitely too expensive for me. However, after my explanation I wrote on my announcement "One page (6 panels) in color can cost 80-100 bucks", that artist had no problem with that (I mean a one didn't feel disappointed by the fact I'm not able to buy anything at a one). See? Everything depends on which people we meet.
I'm still mad. I've wasted damn 90 bucks on that bastard. Saying this I mean I've removed his commissions from my PC and I'm gonna order the same ones but at someone else. I know it's almost like buying a thing but in double price but he left me no choice. I don't wanna know him anymore! I wanna pretend I've never met him before!
That guy I'm talking here, said to me "If you think Im being unreasonable jusk ask any other artist or friend, Im pretty sure they'll side with me on this". So I'm asking you - Are you with me or with him?
