And the only reason I realized is because you brought it up.  Heh.

Tomorrow I start moving to a new house.  

Progress: Already packing. Coaxing issuer into checking the internet package to make sure she doesn't pay for a month extra by accident.
Well today was interesting. Some madman on Reddit offered me money to draw his sona Friday. I agreed on a strictly "pay whatever it's worth" basis and delivered the finished thing to him today. It's apparently not worth much anything to him, which I don't really mind as it's not worth a whole lot to me.
The point is that some total lunatic sought me out as an artist and I was able to actually deliver so that's nice.

...  Uhh.  Never do "pay what it's worth".  You'll get screwed.  "Make an offer" is much better.  Arts is now a competitive market.  Glad you are proud of yourself though.

Cool? I'm glad you made something you think is good... that pay what it's worth doesn't sound like a good buisness thing, but ehhh i dont know.
RP might hiccup a bit because I'll be at a steam engine show August 8-12 and will be too busy to do much more than glimpse at the place while working on a 102 year old steam engine and camping in the primitive as part of the experience.

Moving status:  Access restricted on internet.  This is likely my last message until internet is set up at our new house.  Wish everyone well.  And well wishes for everyone.

I couldn't in good conscience ask for any price at all, that's why I gave him the choice to pay whatever it's worth. I knew going in it wouldn't be worth real money to me so I couldn't reasonably ask money of him in,exchange for it. I'm a whore for money though so I gave him the option to pay anyways.

So you would do it for free but also want money so you let him pay what you want as a middle ground... makes sense.
So how would you have reacted if he said its worth nothing?

Well that would be why I set the base price at nothing.

They offered to pay initially, I said I wouldn't feel right charging money, and as I got into the actual drawing I brought up to them the option of kicking however much they think the piece is worth my way after it's done

I'm too bad at obligations to actually handle paid commissions very well

I do tend to be fine with requests, but it'd end up just being a sketch.

Nah, I'm just bad at getting to things.

Maybe sometime later.
