At the beginning of 2018 I took Codeine up on a deal. She was to do me a couple's sketch page with flat colour for a grand total of $200. As of now, it is still ongoing and I have two basic sketches (not-coloured) which was shown to me at the end of April 2018. (I'll come back to this later.) Proof of Purchases From the initial purchasing of the commission to the first sketch update, I always had difficulty communicating with her, whether it was due to no replies on Discord or her emails. This is a long running trend that is still happening today. She has said multiple times that she has personal issues going on, some to do with mental health and some to do with money. I have tried my best to be cordial and to respect the time she may take as I can understand is can be difficult. But even after a year there really has been no progress on my end all the while she still accepts more and more commissions without ever really seeing them be uploaded. (Of course, these people may have very well gotten their work done, but Codeine told me something herself which makes me doubt that.) Large and Unmoving Backlog She told me once that she had a backlog of near 100 people but only works on those that continue to pester her (like myself). Obviously at the time of hearing it, I thought it was a little peculiar and borderline scam-like but I tried to stay positive and said at least it lets her focus down on 'urgent' ones and such. I'm fully aware I could considered mean or inconsiderate to go back on my word of not outing her, but at this stage I feel like I want to get the word out. With all the hubbub of Jailbird working up a backlog and constantly taking more made me think of it, and if I can stop people from falling into this pit like me, then good. From the horse's mouth the artist has a fairly dodgy work ethic / professionalism since it seems a lot of people's money has sunk into the void. Potential Attempts at using my wallet more I would take this one with a grain of salt, but it also showcases the long periods of time I would often have to wait for any kind of communication. She once drew to my attention an adopt for a character going and she started out by saying how much they liked drawing my character, and if I were to buy this adopt for her, I'd get a steady flow of art with them together. To her credit she said it was quite a selfish ask and didn't seem bothered by me declining. However it was followed by a particularly long period of time without any word from her after having finally just been in regular contact with her. Her initial proposition on Jan 17th. A period of time without contact from the 17th of Jan to the 20th of Feb. (Now, I personally feel this was because she failed to get the character out of me BUT I am happy to be proven wrong and to state that as more my opinion than anything else.) This further shows poor communication on her end, creating a frustrating time on my end. Combinations As time went on, I foolishly continued buying smaller things from her which also were never completed HOWEVER she did offer to combine them into the price of the sketch page. With everything said and done, she dropped a few patreon rewards and sketch slots I purchased completely in order to put more detail into the page. This included a piece of work that she left as flat colours instead of finishing, saying that would go into the page as well. We ended up basically having her owe me the same full sketch page but fully coloured, fully shaded instead of just flats like we originally settled upon. (Which I was happy to accept, of course.) Recent Endeavours and Attempting Refunds Lately I've been asking her for refunds on the page. Since its been so long since I've had an update, and trying to get into contact with her was a trial within itself, I started talking more about simply putting it to rest and getting me my money back. There are many things I'm still due from her but have stated I'm perfectly happy to just focus on the very original $200 and forget about the extras added on and the little sketches I bought on the side. Just the other day she responded and tried to say that the amount of work she's already done is worth $260. Even though she had this to say about the original. This was the picture in question that I asked for price on. This image, flat coloured would be worth $200 in her own words, that we settled upon and I paid. Compare that with what she had managed to do for me in one evening that she is saying is worth $260. We since moved to Twitter to speak, since I generally found better success getting her there, and I could see whether she read my messages or not. She said it was worth $260 because she has apparently done more work on it since (That I have not seen so I haven't been able to even approve it.) though I can't help but imagine she will quickly draw something up or colour a part of it to show me when she next gets back into contact with me. (Which to be honest, if she does then fine. I won't want money back for work that has been done, that's the whole point.) But as it stands, that's all I have to show for my money. Conclusion and where I am now 4 days ago Codeine explained to me she was away from home for personal reasons and assured me she'd be away for 3 days max and would be home to talk with me further about all of this. Obviously, she has not but has read a post I sent to her earlier today. (Still past the 3 day limit she set.) I have essentially been left on read at this point in time. The blue tick means someone has seen your post. Grey is the opposite. These were from today. 8 hours ago and 52 minutes ago respectively. I ultimately didn't want to make this as I hoped we could come to an agreement and I could let it all go. But after constant delays to periods of time she comes up with herself, I promised to myself I would write this up and be done with it if she failed to meet the next deadline. (Yesterday.) Even if my own issue never gets resolved I hope this might at least make a few more people aware that it might be best to steer clear from this one until her backlog seems to be more under control.

Jan. 19th, 2012 at 7:43 PM punkspacewafers I posted a "lost contact" about this user a while ago, it can be found here: http://artists-beware.livejournal.com/549356.html WHO: Feltified WHERE: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/feltified/ http://www.etsy.com/people/Feltified?ref=pr_profile WHAT: A commission for some felted Pokemon. On August 30th 2011 I messaged Feltified after being referred by a friend, and completely fell in love with their creations. I instantly sent a note asking about commissions, as seen in the first screencap below. The entire conversation can be read. After the second screencap, I haven't heard from them since. I've sent 5-6 notes on FA and some shouts on their page and even a couple of Etsy messages, but it seems they just read my notes and don't respond. PROOF: Convo 1 (Read from top down) Payment Convo 2 What's changed from last time: I've sent a few more messages, however this time they have gone unread in the FA outbox. It seems as though they are ignoring me completely. I also sent a couple of messages on Etsy, which I KNOW they're active on, due to the most recent feedback left. seen here: http://www.etsy.com/people/Feltified/feedback?type=for_others I'm changing the status from "lost contact" to "Beware."

Nov. 12th, 2011 at 3:10 AM mosasakkine *Edited some wording as per mod request, and a couple more screenshots* Who: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/bunnynyn/ ; https://inkbunny.net/kibafuryo What: My version of the image in question is still on my page, and still contains all the drama he brought in, if you're so inclined to read through it. I just thought I'd give everyone a heads up about this guy. He won a pinup auction from me on November 9th, which was to be finished that same night. He first insists that we discuss the commission via messenger, which is against my policy for personal reasons. He claimed he wanted to be sure we were on the same page and that I got it perfect. I let him know that I've never had trouble following instructions through email, and his request was so simple (going so far as to send me a pose reference he wanted me to basically copy) there was no possible way for me to screw it up. I told him that if he really wanted, I could stream it for him. Which I did, and finished the piece in under three hours. He was pleased with it, so I then posted it to FA. My TOS states that by commissioning me, the commissioner is giving me the right to post the image where I like, and that they in turn have my permission to post the work on their own page, as long as they give me credit and post a link to my page. At around 7am EST on Nov 11, my significant other noticed on the front page of FA, that he had uploaded the piece. Only he had added huge black text with his "copyright" info, and a giant SAMPLE across the character. I was kind of annoyed about that, but since this was the first time I've ever had to deal with anybody altering a work I've done for them, I had not covered that situation in my TOS. But he also hadn't credited me in the description. So I made a polite comment requesting that he credit me and upload the unaltered image instead. He hid my comment. So I made another, telling him not to ignore me, and to please respect my wishes or remove the image from his page. I made a journal to state my displeasure, not once calling him by name. You can see that journal here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2899677/ He removed the image from his page. Then he posted a journal about how nobody was allowed to post any artwork of his "copyrighted" character anymore, or he'd sue them, then posted the link to that journal on the submission in my gallery. Hilarity ensued. My submission (WARNING NSFW due to penor): http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6828416 What he did to it: http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn_kibafuryo.jpg His journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2900787/ He posted a ton of "threatening legal action" posts, even going so far as to copy/pasta some legal gibberish from a law site, as though he'd actually contacted a lawyer, and posted it both as a comment and as a private note. Our conversation went as follows: http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn1.jpg http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn2.jpg http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn3.jpg http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn4.jpg He chose not to reply to that last note from me. Instead, he went and edited his profile to say "DUE TO RECENT EVENTS WITH A FEW RETARDS ON HERE I HAVE MOVED TO ANOTHER SITE IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS ASK THEN BUT NO LONGER GOING TO DEAL WITH THE DRAMA FEST THAT IS "FA"" I guessed Inkbunny, and wouldn't you know, it wasn't hard to find. He had again uploaded that same altered version, AGAIN without giving me credit. This time he had in the description about how he had to remove it from FA because I had a fit about him uploading it (without mentioning my name). I contacted IB support and had the image removed with no fuss. Seen here:http://rainbow-mouse.net/misc/bunnynyn/bunnynyn5.jpg I posted another journal here, still not naming names http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2901363/ Please also be aware that I did not send anybody after them or encourage them to flame him, reply to his comments, or post on his journal. I avoided posting on his journal myself because I was not trying to incite anything. Again, the situation seems to be resolved for now, until he decides to post the image again, which I have revoked all rights to him being allowed to post anywhere due to his douchebaggery. If you happen to see the image in question uploaded anywhere with his copyright on it, please let me know, and report it if you can. I'm posting it here on A_B because some people have suggested I do so. I would suggest not taking work from this guy unless you like dealing with a childish whiner who will disrespect your art and then threaten you with legal action. Why: Not a clue! Added at Nov 12, 14:00 EST: This has now escalated to the point where he has posted a threatening shout on my FA page (which I have left there to make a point), and trying to reverse the charges on Paypal, which I hope to god they don't take his side, or I'll be on the phone with them. Commissions are my sole income. I don't screw around with this. He has also since nuked his FA account and all the comments he made on my submission, so you're really only seeing half the conversations now. I hope my notes screenshots suffice. Added on Nov 14, 14:14 EST: Some people have started accusing me of acting childish and immature in dealing with this, and that because of that, they think I will lose respect, watchers, and commissions. You are all entitled to your opinions of course, but please realize that in actuality, I have had many people come to me in comment and note and tell me that because of how I handled the situation, they WOULD commission me, so I am seeing the opposite results. I'm sorry if it looks like I have an attitude, but I can assure you that unless you plan to act as this commissioner did, you'd have very little, if any trouble commissioning me. I am very easygoing and friendly, and this is a very extreme case. Ask anybody else who has ever gotten work from me. And so I do not have to keep responding to the six hour thing (the wait between my comment on his submission and my first journal about respect): "Six hours after posting a comment on their page, may or may not have been enough time. My concept of time is skewed, given that my "days" don't end (I'm polyphasic), so what feels like days to me might actually only be six or seven hours because I've already "slept" two or three times. I concede that that I could have waited a little longer, but I honestly doubt it would have made any difference, as I'm pretty sure he hadn't read the journal before hiding the comment. I have no proof, but I gathered as much from the way he responded to me." But in the end, if you still don't like my attitude for whatever reason, enough that you think I warrant a beware of my own, by all means post a topic about me instead of shifting the blame around in this one, which is a totally warranted beware against the commissioner, and my reason for posting here. I can assure you that had not posted here, and if any of you who claim now that my attitude has put you off from commissioning me had been watching me prior to this but was somehow unaware of this situation, you either would have a) not commissioned me based on my general personality anyway b) commissioned me and had a fine experience, because I treat my commissioners with the respect they give me, and I am fairly certain you are all respectable to artists when buying artwork. So please. I absolutely get the picture that I come off as immature to some of you. That horse has been beaten, and unless my personal watchers/commissioners express displeasure with the way I conduct myself, then I will continue to conduct myself as I have been for the last decade of doing commissions, as it has not been hurting me.

She does not take more than she can handle and has always been able to produce wonderful art in a timely manner. I've never been disappointed. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 keihound Apr. 6th, 2011 06:09 pm (local) Just a few of many commissioners I love to draw for that deserve recognition for their kindness ? 1. Name: Sera 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/sera 3. A regular commission-ee since 2009 ? 4. Sera is always super clear with describing what she wants me to draw and is a pleasure to draw for. ? Incredibly kind and thoughtful. I look forward to taking her commissions. 1. Name: Fuzzypaws 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/fuzzypaws/ 3. Has commissioned me both in person at a convention and a few times online since 2009 4. Shiro (Fuzzypaws) has always given me fun scenarios to draw for him, and has tipped me, which I am very grateful for. He was very kind about a perspective-based commission I didn't think I would do well with, and adjusted a commission idea slightly so I was still confident about doing it ? 1. Name: Arinmal 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/arinmal 3. Has commissioned me a few times since 2010 4. So polite and thankful, I am grateful to have had the pleasure of drawing for him. Very considerate and patient guy, wasn't impatient in the least when I had a bit of a delay getting his 8-character commission finished. Super nice guy ? There are so, so many more people I want to mention - I don't think I've ever had a -bad- commission experience. I wish I could name each of them ? These are just a few people that came to mind. Thank you guys ❤️ koisnake Apr. 6th, 2011 06:36 pm (local) 1. Name: A-chan Creations 2. Link: http://chao-fangirl.deviantart.com/ 3. Time Frame: I commissioned her back in October 2009, more or less, and received the plushies I've commissioned on February 15, 2011. However, the reason for the huge gap is explained below ? 4. Details: The plushies I've received (Klonoa, Guntz, Chipple, and Pyramid Head) were all made beautifully and personality. The seams were neat, the details were accurate, and they were the perfect size. I love them to bits! When commissioning her, I got a late with a few payments due to my job giving me less hours (this is the reason for the gap) but she was extremely patient and pushed my plushies to the end of her list to give me enough time to finish paying. She did not need to do this, but I cannot thank her enough for being patient and understanding about the payment troubles. Definitely recommended! latiro Apr. 6th, 2011 06:56 pm (local) Superb artist: fetalstar now THAT is what I've been waiting for! 1. Name: fetalstar 2. Link: her FA her website 3. Time frame: from Feb 22 to Mar 18 (for this second commission I've ordered (see below)) 4. Details: this gorgeous piece (WARNING NSFW CONTENT) come out wonderfully fantastic in a different painting style; transaction went splendidly; I've been very patient with her; she absolutely rocks and some of you may wanna consider commissioning her hige_kun (71.203.136.90) Apr. 6th, 2011 07:30 pm (local) Re: Superb artist: fetalstar Seconding this!

I asked for changes to the original sketch, she did them quickly without any questions, and the finished product is literally one of my favorite commissions I've ever received. It's gorgeous and even better in person. The way it was shipped made it practically indestructible, very above and beyond on the packaging of the original. I also got a badge from her (its not uploaded to her page yet) and it was stunningly beautiful, and came ready-to-wear with clip and everything. She is so professional!

Zyden @ DA Commissioned in early March. The work is professional and frankly amazing in its depth and color and how it's all put together. I haven't seen anything quite as breath-taking as her eye-cons, for the price and with the level of professionalism that she puts into her work. A slightly larger version of my eye-con (and icon!) can be found here if you'd like a peek. She's wonderful to work with and has a great manner as well. The commission was quick and painless and I'm still amazed at how gorgeous it turned out! filthy_animal Apr. 6th, 2011 08:46 pm (local) Synchra Synchra synchra, aka "synchra" on FA. n_n Business was done this month, and previously~ I assume it's okay to mention this-- I purchased two of her adoptables and received the larger file for both within about 12-24 hours of payment (bought at separate times). She is really friendly and her quality of work is very professional. I have also had an art trade with her in the past (which I admittedly need to finish my half for, good lord I am slow) and I was more than impressed with the quality she brought me (see my current icon for this comment-- thats her work!). n.n I would totally recommend her-- she does a lot of concept work for characters, ref sheets, and icons. ❤️ jibacoil Apr. 6th, 2011 09:38 pm (local) p3nsive Pensive on FA.

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.

Trashedbat 2. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/trashedbat 3. Last Summer, unsure of exactly what time period because I am derp. 4. Was pleasant to work with! ? 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.

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
