This bugs me so much, since I'm a furry artist.
"What's that?"
"My character."
"Cool! Can you draw me?"
"I can't draw humans, just Anthro or Feral cats and dogs."
"Oh, come on, you're so good at it, can you at least try? They're exactly the same!"
"You have to pay for a commission if you want art from me."
"Eugh, why do you need to be so stingy??? It's just a DRAWING!" *walks away*
Every damn time.
I'm also friends with an animator on YouTube who has 7k subs, people found out and they're sucking up to me to try to make friends with her for the art. People will eat their own ass for popularity and gifts and it makes me mad as an artist.
I either respond with, "I'd love to put your beauty on paper." or "I'm not sexually attracted to you." I could give a fuck if they get butthurt, didn't their mama ever tell them that other people's time is valuable?
