What NOT to do when getting a commission.

[grandz-migration]

We have had a thread on how to go about with a commission from a artist.

 

Here's a tip on what not to do - Do not place an order for a commission, approving the price,

layout, prelim. and approving the final. Then do not pay, and never responding to e-mails.

 

This happened to me recently ( over a month now since commission completed ).

 

Just a FYI for all looking for commission(s) from an artist that you are considering

getting a commission from.

Wow! You are really good!

To eliminate such time-wasters (hopefully not, Krazy-Matt-type wannabe-art-collectors), you should ask for a realistic deposit (non-refundable under agreed circumstances) before undertaking the work requested.

Thank you Panzera.

 

The piece is the White Queen. After seeing my Vampi. portraits he commissioned

Emma is a similar style. Seen below.

Yes. Unfortunately that is how my future commission transactions will take place.

The reason I did not ask for a deposit this time is because of past commissions from

CAF that were all successful.

 

Those days of trust are gone now.

Really sorry to hear about this grandz. All it takes is one bad apple to really mess things up. On the bright side, that's a nice piece and you should have no trouble selling it for a decent price. (thumbs u
