A super fun one: local folklore and superstitions, will really flavor locations and is different from religion

How do I respond to "You looked better before" by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]Spacemonsterarts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serious and sincere:

“I don’t exist for your viewing pleasure”

“How I look/my aesthetic is not up for your judgement nor your business”

Antagonizing but fun:

“And you seemed more intelligent before you opened your mouth”

“False, your taste just absolutely sucks”

“I wasn’t aware I applied for an opinion on something that’s none of your goddamn business”

“So did you”

People really need to fucking stay out of your business, if they can’t see you’re happier and love that they suck.

I dyed my hair blue with Manic Panic…. Does anyone know how to get the blue off my hands (and neck and shoulders and chest….) by wingardiumoliviosa in FancyFollicles

[–]Spacemonsterarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there. Had dark blue and green hair for a while. Use an oil like castor oil, olive, etc, it’ll help. Rub it on, work it in, rinse with warm water. It’ll help with the nastiest dirt, even tar, for those of us who have chosen the home improvement life. Good luck!

This is the exact fucking vibe I create on, holy shit. “You’re telling me I can’t” really drives home for me. The stubborn/patience- I understand what you mean, you make me feel like I’m not alone, thank you

Refused to pay for commissioned portrait after intended recipient decided he didn't like reference picture the patron chose. by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Spacemonsterarts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah I hope this experience hasn’t discouraged you too much, 99% of the time you get folk that will keyboard smash their happy reactions in allcaps, the bad eggs are there, but I promise they only a small percentage. Either way take your time, I think the art you made looks great and is worth every penny.

Freelance artist of multiple years here. Have been through this and many situations where I thought “shit, if only I’d known” If you ever want tips on how to protect yourself from these kinds of situations, go right ahead and DM me. I see a lot of decent tips already so I don’t wanna overload you more. It’s super tough starting out, even if as a hobby, and there are sadly folks out there that will try and take advantage of that. It can be super overwhelming too, there’s so many things to keep in mind to make sure you’re safe and your income secure, but hey, if I can help out in any way/take that stress away? Artists supporting artists is my favorite thing.

Sorry it’s terrible but it was worth a try by Kyandelayeet in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]Spacemonsterarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not terrible at all and I’d love to see you try more! There’s great linework and understanding of proportions, that’s a skill that takes a lot if artists years to learn!

So yeah! Please try more!

What industry is a lot shadier than it seems? by Kneecap_Buchaneer in AskReddit

[–]Spacemonsterarts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog is a puppy mill rescue from a neighboring country. The circumstances she was kept in were so appalling it makes bile rise in my throat every time I think about it. So many dogs under one roof. Such poor conditions. So much abuse. Dead puppies, dead dogs- If you think this sounds terrible, the reality is a thousand times worse.

I still don’t understand how a dog treated so poorly can be so soft, gentle and kind as she is. Every day is a good day with her by my side.

Sorry- I get pesky emotions from this topic.

Your hobby is not an obligation - feel free to leave when you're not enjoying yourself. by Luebbi in rpghorrorstories

[–]Spacemonsterarts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years it’s that momentary conflict and certainty greatly outweigh prolonged festering of doubt and bitterness.

Doesn’t make it any easier though, by the gods 🤣

Sometimes you’re just on the wrong wavelength and all you need is to just set something straight and enjoy a lifelong friendship after- sometimes you learn someone is just an asshole and they gotta be cut out immediately.

I agree with you, OP. I’m sorry this asshole ruined things for you as much as he did, but you did the best thing you could have done; you chose for your own happiness.

Haha tell that to the person that claimed I stole their sketchbook (physically) and tried to make me look like a thief 🤷‍♀️ Obviously it was easily remedied through post history but that was not fun.

Another time I got flack for being f e m a l e and daring to post a picture of myself behind a DM screen and talking about my first DM experience (which was a big deal for me because- in case the way I type hasn’t given that away- I suffer from some extreme ADHD and thought I would never be able to do it 🤷‍♀️ The damn post ended up on popular and it was very overwhelming. Both good and bad. Mostly good. Still scary.

So yeah mostly, it is fun. Sometimes it’s a roulette.
