I don’t take commissions. Every once in a while someone sends me a private message asking for something custom. I won’t send a nude image in a message, so these end up in my DA gallery.
This guy asked me to create their 6’11 120lb 38-15-36 OC. Everything about this offends me but I’m not going to engage anyone in a conversation about their misogynistic and unrealistic expectations. 6’11 with 38 inch bust, you’re 190 lbs even with a 15’ waist. Also you can’t stand up without a back brace. So, to passive agressively assert some distaste, I added a dweller with a penis to the scene.
I also got a request from a guy asking for a couple in full frontal nudity in a shower. The guy had the audacity to complain the cock was too big - dude, if I’m giving the girl HH-cup breasts, the guy gets a third leg.
I’ve had a couple of requests for commissions over the years, and I’ve always turned them down. I do my art for me, and the moment I start doing my art for somebody else then this hobby becomes a job and that’s not something I’m interested in doing.
I don’t send nudes in DeviantArt messages because I don’t know the person on the other end is an adult. If I just post it to my gallery, I can rely on the mature content filter to keep anyone honest about their age from seeing inappropriate stuff.
I see “commissions” like this as challenges. I’m not getting paid, so it’s more request than commission. I would totally do it for money - if the money were good enough, but artists make pennies and database programmers make a healthy salary.
Good onyer.
