I know nobody cares on the Internet, but I need a place to vent.
When I started doing avi art, it was free to anyone who asked about the art in my sig. It was a lot of fun, especially because I got to practice drawing different sorts of characters and poses, and, I'm not gonna lie, I liked getting peoples' reactions when they found out I'd draw them for free.
After doing this for awhile, I thought I might be able to get some gold out of it, so I started a shop, of sorts.
The problem is, the only thing it led to was getting swamped by people who wanted art just because it was cheap.
So I put up with it for awhile, then closed commissions.
But wouldn't you know?
People read that I wasn't doing commissions, and still asked me to draw them.
Anyway, that brings me up to the present moment.
I feel used. Exploited. Generally ******** over.
And I'm definitely not having fun with my art anymore.
What I figure I'll do is, finish up the ten thousand commissions I have at the moment, then quit doing avi art until I think of a way around this.
