it honestly astounds me how many disrespectful people you get that think you'll just do art for free--especially when it's clear how much time and energy goes into your art. i'd be frustrated as heck if i was in your shoes!

It’s tiring, the messages are usually phrased like ”do my OC” or “do this thing”, it feels rude and impersonal, and getting “nevermind” when you say these are paid commissions (or no response at all) just goes to show some people think there is no time or effort involved or something, or that you are just there to draw whatever they want.
