Why yes, I did ask someone to draw me. "I think I'll pass for now, too many canines." That was the response, a sugarcoated version of "No" as I saw it. I asked nicely, got denied, you know what happened next. I'll gladly spend $300+ on a new pair of Jordans, but no way in hell am I paying $10.00 for a drawing. Hell, I even offered to pay her. Anyways, I did what I did, and I don't regret it. I have no feelings about it, it's done.
Ah, see here's the thing, if I were me- oh wait, I am me. If ya wanna be one of those people to say "If I were you" like you're painting yourself as some sort of patron saint, more power to ya, mon xD
