I didn't send another Note until this month (September 2022), but in the mean time I continued to see artists I follow posting Patreon rewards for SpiritOfStars, meaning she was clearly active online in some capacity, which made me feel ignored and was very frustrating. I followed up again in April, this note was Read as well, asking if she preferred a different contact method, since I figured maybe she just wasn't logging in to dA much anymore (I had not noticed that the Notes were Read until prepping for this Beware). In March I sent a message checking in, but it was not responded to, though it shows as Read. I sent my response thanking her for the update, but to this day it remains unread. I was really happy to get this response and this WIP, little did I know this was to be the last message I ever received from her. A few days later I got a response with the new WIP. I requested a pic of the updated WIP though, as I had just discovered this site and thought it best to make sure I wasn't being fobbed off.Ī couple days later I hadn't heard back yet so I sent another message just in case she had forgotten. While I wish she had reached out about this herself rather than me having to ask, I wasn't too bothered and was happy to wait as so far she was really responsive whenever I reached out (something I mentioned to her). Once again I got a fast response, though this time I was advised that she had injured her finger, which had/would cause delays. I apologised for my mistake and was happy with this update.Ī bit over a month later on the 30th of January 2022, I decided to check in again.

Spirit replied pretty quickly with an update on the progress. Things started off well I received and paid the invoice on the 23rd/24th of August 2021 and at the same time I received a lined WIP.Ī few months later, in December, I was organising my folders of commissioned art and realised I only had this WIP, I had it in my head that this was already finished so I went looking through my notes for the link, and upon finding none I sent a note asking after it.

I was also added to her queue on the original post. Note: All communication was via deviantart Notes, and the reading order is from bottom to top. I sent the note that day, 20th of August 2021, and things progressed quickly after that. I came across SpiritOfStars's YCH through someone else I Watch on DA and have commissioned before, I had a bit of extra money and it looked like a nice style so I commented on the YCH letting them know I'd be sending a note.
