Do commissioned artists not check in at stages? Like, correcting little things as they go along seems easier than getting presented with a hot mess three months later and everything is sucky.

[(Anonymous)]

Some do, some don't, depends on the artist. Some offer one stage, some two, depends on the artist too. And the final product doesn't always look the way you'd imagine from a sketch either.

Like yeah, it's an extreme to end up with something completely off, but it's also an extreme to find an artist that will sit with you for multiple rounds of revisions too. At least in the amateur space.

I've commissioned several pieces over the years, and oddly enough, the only time I've been unhappy was when a BNF did a piece for me. Her price was 3-4 times as expensive as anyone else, but she was recommended and I figured, "Hey, she'll be worth it." Nope. No checkin at all. She flung a fugly completed work at me. I didn't see what that I had any recourse.

Other than repost it and give her full credit, of course. :p

I've commissioned a lot of things from a lot of different artists and I've never had one who didn't with the exception of a few times where I just commissioned a rough sketch.

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe I just follow conscientious ones, but the artists I know who take commissions make a point of checking in at stages - precisely to avoid that whole unpleasant surprise thing at the end. If I wanted to commission something, I'd definitely choose an artist who did this.
