any updates? I tried to get a commission from this artist once and got no response, was thinking about trying to get in touch again but this is making me have second thoughts

After my initial DM on discord, I still received no response. I have also seen Lui-Ra continuing to post others' commission work.

Update as of July 3rd -

Lui-Ra has accepted my request to message on Discord. I have sent them an upfront message stating that I would like a refund. They have yet to respond.

Definitely not good for them to just disappear on you after payment, it seems so odd considering their initial conversation with you seemed pretty standard. Though, one thing I noticed is their response to you describing your character's body type -- after you described him as a twink, they seemed to take issue? The way they responded  with "oh... I see...." followed by complete silence makes me believe they had some issue with the term for some reason?

If it were the case I'd expect them to mention it makes them uncomfortable though? Not just straight up ghost you as a paying client - if for some reason they didn't want to work with you they should have said so and refunded, not just disappear with your money.

That's what I was thinking, but like you said, they didn't really make it clear that it was the issue. if it is, then i'd gladly not use it (i have no problem with the term, and the character is lgbt anyway so it's not really inaccurate), but the ghosting is really shady still.

i've yet to see any other issues with the artist, so it's really hard to determine.
