The response: https://imgprx.livejournal.net/5856eb58b3969874551c6d57c42e7c8fbf687a32/PXnVUiCt3-I9_rsVr1_ZnW_regCGBgMfpyuk1-5dfrL3YzB4B6C43h9KP_Gyg468X0OqAJFwyQsT4_YQsdpCEQ I replied that it if it was going to be posted by the end of the week there was no need to fuss over posting sketches, yet the end of the week came and went and there was no sign of anything. In fact, this is the last I heard from her. I got a little busy around that time myself, yet when I went to check on her DA later, I found she'd been to a convention: https://imgprx.livejournal.net/ac12777d8762007ccd26443493534b2b86342e96/PXnVUiCt3-I9_rsVr1_ZnbBf9KOwK1UWr2ThLi-pSvrPRDiRI2uHftQMSaccU2QGwIoi09uKXhW9FzjguZZqcg So, I decided to send her a note asking for an update: https://imgprx.livejournal.net/203740896495ddca4ea7c08f8215ffb26e8256c0/PXnVUiCt3-I9_rsVr1_ZnX6AhyhTXy-MAe5UegQwnOhRFuUSc4W1I0_9yuvKF35cCNBFcoImYEIDrYwNGOMrbQ and, in case she didn't respond, left a comment on the original commission post: https://imgprx.livejournal.net/8fc9bbbd394f6f7954fcd179b3195c0e481f063d/PXnVUiCt3-I9_rsVr1_ZnW_regCGBgMfpyuk1-5dfrK6jupj8TRdnMZoRJ-a0M5ZNH7h4hgQ6Gz1d_1VrK2ZEw Still nothing. Waited a bit longer, in case she was just taking awhile to respond as she had in the past, then sent her a final note asking for the piece she said was nearly finished with two months earlier or a refund(given I'd seen nothing to prove she had done anything so far). https://imgprx.livejournal.net/160b0386f3d32327b171a528a5903a2c3fa85044/PXnVUiCt3-I9_rsVr1_ZnShjwzQRbrkSFdOTRxRNdpm52jRrthWMR_470ORmaKL9fhFkcNr5_CQNeppRxHQbaQ Kind of blunt, I admit. Either way it is well past that date, just spent a month working on some papers so I couldn't get around to taking screenshots earlier, so I'm posting here now. Between my having never commissioned someone before(though have taken commissions myself) and her saying this was her first time taking commissions, I'm not sure if I somehow messed up or if she took too much on or what but, personally, I feel this worth a post given she seems to have taken on five commissions, all paid according to the post/talking to the one mentioned as 'unpaid', yet doesn't appear to have produced anything despite claiming she was nearly finished months ago. ETA (2/10/2012): This matter has been resolved

I'd posted over on ArtCommissions about looking for someone to commission for a two-character piece of me and my boyfriends' two naga characters. She messaged me on Furcadia a short while after showing interest in doing the lineart for $25. Looking through her gallery and loving her art, I agreed to commission her. Communication was constant, and in just a few days she'd shown me a rough sketch for approval and was working on inking. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and even offered to fix a detail for free that I'd forgotten to mention in one of the characters' descriptions. Now once I have the money to spend, I'm absolutely going back to her when her commissions are open again to have her color the linework, too. :3 I'd absolutely recommend her to anyone! Finished piece. <3 shukivengeanceawesome Mar. 1st, 2011 04:28 pm (local) Demona69 http://www.furaffinity.net/user/demona69/ January It was a pre-posed lineart commission, which I requested permission to colour myself. After sending her payment she had the sketch modified as my character within a few hours, when I approved it she had the finished lineart done and emailed to me within 2 days. She was a real pleasure to work with, very polite and friendly. feather_dancer Mar. 1st, 2011 05:27 pm (local) Bunglebearz / Joicebear 1. bunglebearz 2. DA | FA 3. Early Feburary 4.

Watched them stream part of the commission and they constantly used refs so I was sure she was doing her best to get my little characters right and actually CARED about the commission and not just think "oh, glance at the ref for a second and doodle something up." They took a simple idea and setting I suggested and turned it into a really cute drawing. ? I plan on doing business with TB again soon. :3 And link to the picture they drew: http://oi52.tinypic.com/vyab7l.jpg brownspotz Mar. 1st, 2011 09:00 pm (local) 1 Luthien_Nightwolf 2 http://www.furaffinity.net/user/luthiennightwolf/ 3 a few weeks ago 4 just really awesome to work with,very creative and very polite. link to one of the pieces she has done for me: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5315332 pan_h_shiroi Mar. 2nd, 2011 05:25 am (local) Bagheera 1.

I gave Brokowski a short description of what I wanted (mock-up band poster for 'Domestic violence'; pig chick kicking ass) and he literally blew my expectations away! He works lighting-fast and ships even faster. I paid approximately 440 for this 8-1/2" X 11" piece: http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt86/punkbawkchicken/DV1111jpg.jpg (not adult per-say, but pretty violent!) alex_dachshund Mar. 2nd, 2011 06:09 pm (local) FlinTinTin / FlannMoriath 1. FlinTinTin on FurAffinity, also known as FlannMoriath on deviantArt. 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/flintintin and http://flannmoriath.deviantart.com/ 3. February 25th 4. Flann is a well-known "Ginga" (Ginga Nagareboshi Gin, Ginga Densetsu Weed) on deviantArt and I absolutely love and adore her style. She started offering these seasonal icons (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5280879/) and I immediately I knew I had to get a Spring icon of my dachsie 'sona, Alex! Typically she charges $3 for the icons but charged an additional $3 for me since I wanted her to edit her template a little bit. I didn't mind that at all! She was very easy to talk to and work with, and after about two days, she finished my icon! Here is the finished picture (the pictures is uploaded in my giftart account, not hers as she didn't upload it: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5330998 alex_dachshund Mar. 2nd, 2011 06:15 pm (local) LunaDarkGoddess 1. LunaDarkGoddess 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/lunadarkgoddess 3. February 26 4. Luna opened icon commissions and I decided to get one. She was very prompt in noting me her commission form to fill out, and when she got to mine in the queue, she noted me a preview sketch, and after I told her nothing really needed to be changed, she finished the icon after a few hours so it took basically less than two days for her to do my icon. She didn't upload it on her account for some reason. I wish she did so I could favorite it, but meh oh well. Here's the finished icon (uploaded on my giftart account): http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5331002 alex_dachshund Mar. 2nd, 2011 06:20 pm (local) Psychobat 1. Psychobat 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/psychobat/ 3. Some time in the middle of February 4. When Psychobat opened commissions, I immediately jumped at it. The commission itself took a week or two to finish (mainly because she was having trouble with poses and such), but I don't mind! She was extremely good with sending WIP shots and was very nice to work with.

Joice Murphy / bunglebearz 2. Deviantart / Furaffinity 3. Commissioned her at the beginning of February, received end of Feb. 4. She was offering an awesome deal for $10 coloured full-body images, +$3 for each character; I got one with my partner, best friend and my fursonas. Despite character interaction being way out of her comfort zone, she turned out a great picture! She was extremely communicative, with frequent e-mails and updates on Twitter/Tumblr, and was just great to deal with. I think she went above and beyond a $16 commission! here's the pic!

I was expecting it may take a while but within a week she'd sent me sketch page! Beautifully drawn and since she'd gone on her vacation to the same country as me, making shipping much cheaper, she did me another sketch. ? Here's the awesome page of sketches. ukthewhitewolf Mar. 7th, 2011 08:32 am (local) Ellastasia 1: Ellastasia 2: DeviantART 3: October 2010 4: I contacted Ellastasia wanting 2 commissions as presents for my mother, both I needed before December. 1 was a pretty normal looking pegasus but the other was of a real horse my mum used to own - and I had no photos of this horse. She did absolutely brilliantly at bringing her to life perfectly from my explanations and vague colouring of a lineart as a reference to the point my mum instantly recognized it as her horse. She got them both done for Mid-November and I am so happy with how they came out (as is my mum). First piece and second piece
