Would sending an artist an ultimatum make them rush work?
baja replied to Breadloser's topic in Advice for Commissioners
You have done what you can and all you can do is wait. In the future, if you find yourself with a similar situation, I would recommend only asking for a refund and abandoning the notion of getting any art from the individual. You yourself must contend with losing art, getting something you may be unhappy with or not having your money back. If you receive something you are not content with and it isn't worth the hassle for revisions, etc, you may have to chalk up the experience to a loss.- 1 reply

An artist has been delaying so much even after I asked for updates throught the past months Ive read the post about ultimatums here, so I had to send an ultimatum a few days ago, either they refund me or just finish the piece and if they can't do neither I'll file, they agreed to finishing the piece in 1 week Now im afraid I'll just end up with a carelessly done piece, and i know once they deliver there won't be anything I can do, say that happened, do I still have the right to demand anything? Thanks

On January 13th of 2025, I went to Meebee on Telegram to ask for a commission Listing for the Chibi Commissions After discussing the details of the commission, I paid same day After just a few short days, I was told it was going to be worked on already And was given updates after this pretty frequently for the next few days. This was the point where no updates were given for a couple of months until I had to ask. This last message would not be answered until nearing the end of July 2025, where I was asked if changing the commission would be on the table, I actually liked the style I originally went for, so I asked to just keep it as is. After a couple MORE months had passed by, I was getting fatigued so offered to change the idea if it meant getting it done. The next ask wouldn't be till January 7th, 2026, where nothing had been done and they wanted to cancel the idea completely. At this point, I should've just taken the refund, but didn't want to hurt their way of paying bills, food, ect so compromised with one of their ych These were the last messages sent on January 7th and I have not recieved anything since then after picking one As of today, several ych have been posted on their social media, as well as Valentine's day ones. They do no have visuals of their queue so I have nothing to show for how long these others have been waiting as well. As of February 10th, 2026, they have reopened for personalized commissions after telling me they would no longer be doing those this year Going to contact them once more for just a full refund after dodging updates and lying, hopefully something can be done. Updated --- After contacting and confronting them about dates and missed deadlines, I was told on Feb. 17th that it would be started. As of today, they have finished several other commissions, as well as recently opened ones. If nothing is sent by the 17th of March I'll be taking the full refund. Updated ---- Gave them the month, and after seeing them post more recently opened commissions, asked for the refund With it being the 28th as of this update, not really holding my breath for it any time soon.

- I commissioned Oddgrowl Art/Arcane Chimera/Rillrex on Saturday July 5th, 2025 in-person at Anthrocon's Artist Alley. They were vending under the name "Oddgrowl Art". I commissioned a black and white traditional sketch for $70 and tipped $10. This sketch was to be completed at-con, but the artist did say that it may need to be a take-home commission (to be done shortly after the con). - Proof of payment ( - I followed up a couple weeks later on July 31st to check the status of my commission and did not receive a response. I tried again on August 10th and did not receive a response until August 23rd, where Oddgrowl offered to send me a wip of the black and white sketch. I agreed to see the wip, and I have not received a response since. On November 17th I requested a refund if Oddgrowl was not able to provide the WIP in a timely manner, and I have not received a response. I have not followed-up since the November email. Mod Note: Follow-up was sent to Rillex via Bluesky on 2/19/26 and has not received a response.

On November 30th 2025, I purchased an adopt from Kaniepanies on YCH.Commishes for $25. I paid the attached ko-fi account, to which the artist confirmed they recieved payment & then gave me the unwatermarked PNG of the adopt A month later, I noticed the adoptable was listed on YCH again by a user called Vishmesh, and I reported it for theft thinking someone else was stealing the adopt and trying to scam people. I messaged Kani/Kanis and infomed them with a link to the auction, to which they immediately removed me from their dms, blocked me, deleted the auction where I had won, and changed their ko-fi handle to cover their tracks. The new ko-fi handle, Kanis, shows a $25 payment on November 30th, 2025 - same day I paid for the adopt, and the only ko-fi payment I made that day. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the same person. As of January 8th 2025, they are going by Vishmesh on YCH. They will likely change their usernames again to continue this scam.

This is to serve as notice that we were contacted by SmashedOysters recently attempting to pretend that he wasn't Arocco. While he has done a good job trying to scrub Arocco from his history, we were able to confirm our original links to him as Smashed today. Edit: Also confirmed via his Paypal.me link having the same legal name.

October 3rd - 7th, 2023 Witchness posted that she was open for stream slots that were supposed to be done next day or the day after in stream, I filled out and submitted a form and she messaged me the next day saying that she would be sending me an invoice. I paid once it was sent and waited for her to post that she was streaming, which she never did. On the 7th she sent me a message saying her stream wasn't working and that she had to work out of stream. She sent me a WIP (which I approved of) and told me she would be finishing it next day. I didn't hear anything from her personally outside of her posting personal issues on her page. January 4th-10th 2024 I honestly cannot remember the exact date but I ended up joining her server for commission progress at some point and she had a ticket system for that. I received a response from her on the 10th, explaining that she had a lot of "other people on (her) plate" but that she should finish my piece "in a couple weeks at most!" so I reacted with an emoji and waited. May 14th, 2024 Since I hadn't heard anything from her since her last response I sent a message asking for an update since it had been five months without a word from her. June 27th, 2024 She responded to me saying she was going through owed work and she was sorry for the delays. June 30th, 2024 Her manager had sent me a message saying that Witchness needed updated information from me and sent me a form to fill out and reply with. I ended up having surgery and I think I cleared my notifications and missed Biba's message. July 14th-15th, 2024 I went to check on my ticket and noticed the response I missed, I apologized for not responding sooner, mentioning my surgery and replied with the filled out form. The next day, Biba responded telling me that it was fine and sent me a link to Witch's Trello so I could "keep track" and that she'd ping me again when there were updates. September 1st, 2024 Another one of her managers/ mods replied to my ticket to tell me that Witch had said she'd be going through her tickets and delivering wips so I should expect a response soon. October 11th, - November 1st, 2024 In October I was starting to get impatient after several empty promises, alongside Witch constantly taking on new commissions and doing huge adopt sheets and personal work and decided to message her. So I sent a message in the ticket thread stating that I understood that she was having issues but it was completely unfair that I had been waiting over a year for my head shot and that I understood she had a lot of commissions owed but I wanted an update. I didn't get a response until the 1st of November, where another moderator basically relayed what I had already known from her server updates and public Twitter posts. Mentioning eviction and stating she was in a bind because several people had been charging her back so she was taking the time to make adopts to make up for that and that they didn't have an ETA for me and wouldn't for a while. I didn't respond because I didn't know what to say at that point. February 19th, 2025 I ended up messaging again as I had seen her publicly taking on new commissions, I stated it had been four months and that I'd seen her taking and doing the new commissions. I was ignored and didn't receive a response until October. October 18th - 21st, 2025 Another mod messaged me saying they "Reached out" (?) and that I
