Hello all, 

I have good news. The artist did reach out to me and apologized. We managed to figure out the issue and the art has since been completed. KRB also did an additional piece of art that neither my friend nor I asked for or paid for. He said he did it because he felt bad about the situation. He also offered me a refund after completing both artworks, but I turned it down because I did not want to feel that I had taken advantage of him in any way. 

Thankfully my friend hasn't been dragged into the unpleasantness that happened at first either, so I'm glad about that too. 

For general clarification, this was not a fun process for me. I hate being "That Guy" and calling someone out. I'm just glad it's all over and both the artist and I can move on from this. 





Skipped ahead a little bit

That is some poor communication especially since you waited patiently for about a year I'm sure your past the protection period.

That is correct. In hindsight, I could have done more to try and either get my money back, especially because this was not just my money. At the time I thought it was simply a matter of doing colored commissions last or something of the sort. 

It's an important lesson learned, and hopefully something both the artist and I will move on from in time.
