Really, their business sense is junk, and you can see it in how they handle their commissions:
- You get no WIPS, no updates, no previews, etc. and you cannot ask for them or else they privately blacklist you. They do commissions at their pace only. - You get no say in how commissions are done and they have complete artistic freedom; you don't get to ask them for anything specific, which is especially bothersome because most of the affordable commissions they take are 'zoom ins' on one part of your character like teeth, eyes, etc. One person commissioned this way and they got a signature with their dragon's tail taking up only ~35-40% of the image. - They get to interpret your character however they want, and again, you can't tell them how to interpret your character, so you better hope that your reference sheets have all the details you need and pray they heed them.
They charge high because their work is pretty quality, and I can absolutely concede on that because it IS gorgeous, but they will not give you the standard courtesies of commissioning. They've had a few DR posts about them a few months back.
So yeah, I can 100% believe they'd be this stubborn about charging an arm and a leg for junky g1s.
