Posted 2 years agoThree years later and 500€ for... nothing (slight rant)
Posted 2 years agoHello hello... I need to get this out of my system.
Three years ago I started getting art/rework for old character I've been playing in table top RPG and/or RP. This is the crazy story of one of those with the latest development happening today.
The main issu is that this character straight up doesn't have art. She only exists in my head. But I found an artist that accepted to draw her from description... they disapeared (with my money).
Then another one..
Then the artist refused to draw the character straight out.
Then another one decided to double their price.
then scammed again.
And so on. In the end I've lost around 500€ total between artists scamming or "disapearing".
Sure you'll say "why don't you draw a first art of her, even badely, to give the artist"... That's the catch, I can't draw. Not only am I terrible, but I hand hurts A LOT when drawing (I suffer from heavy osteoarthritis in my dominant hand, I can barely hold my phone without feeling pain).
Fed up, I used an AI to have something to show artist as a "first piece" for her (I wouldn't call that "art").... And all three I asked basically told me to "f off" and that they won't draw her, and blocked me when I told them I can't draw for the only reason (not hiding it to their credit) of me using an AI. The last one being today.
So what can I do now? Three years later and I can't find an artist who agreed to draw her from an AI piece, I can't post said piece, and when asking from description, they refuse or ask 200bucks and things like that.
Slight note: the character doesn't have any "hardcore" feature or anormal proportion or anything, she is a tall girl with a scar and that's it.
Thank you to the 2 people who will read. I hope you'll have a good day all ^^.
