I am going to start at the very beginning

Mistercrowbar, former friend and artist who worked with me, is now offering artwork for free use that I have paid them to create for my projects.

About myself, I am an independant TTRPG content creator and regularly commission artists for my work.

Gnoll Commission, 2 pieces of artwork, shown above and distributed my Mistercrowbar here on tumblr.

Here are the two receits from these transactions, paid for via paypal in spring 2021. I blurred out my personal info, but i kept buisness emails visible as they are publically available.

  Here are screenshots from mistercrowbar working with me on these commissions. So yeah, proof that I worked with them on this.

On 25th of October of 2016, i ordered a fluffy croc design commission from this user. The status update (where they were selling the slot) said that the design would be off base and they also told me they’d start the next day when they replied to me. Here you can view the slot, in which i claim it an they confirm: http://soundofthecrocodile.deviantart.com/status/5436467

The design, as you may imagine, was not made the day after that. Or the next day. Or the next one. Or never, to sum it up. I thought, ‘okay, something must have happened right? Something that made them not being able to complete the commission’. But after a week, i checked their to-do-list (which isnt in their page anymore, and i apologize for not having screenshots of that) and my name wasnt anywhere. Then i thought 'it must be outdated’.

More weeks passed, and they kept on posting personal art. And thats fine, I do that myself, but I put some sort of priority when someone else is paying me to draw something. 

A month later i decided to note them, because i saw they not only kept making personal art, but they also opened an animation YCH, which i believe is very time consuming. Here i took some screenshots

As you may see, Sound mentions how it might be difficult to replicate the style, as they were changing styles or smth. What do i see next? http://soundofthecrocodile.deviantart.com/art/Santa-Is-Coming-To-Town-650504721

If you dont know what i mean, this was the style i was looking for. I believe they did another one before, i just cant find it. They probably cleaned their gallery, because a lot of their drawings are missing (or it could be just dA glitching again)

More months of personal art, random designs, adoptables and ych passed, so i aproached to them again, a bit more angry this time:

http://prntscr.com/ec33i3 (somewhy dA doesnt want to show my first message)

As you can see, they say 'if i cant do it, i will refund you’. I checked my paypal yesterday, i didnt see any refunds. 

A couple days ago, guess what happened?

I know, they havent replied yet, but its just a matter of time before they do. 

Finally, that day i decided to note them again, to remind them that they owed me a custom from october. Not complaining, but asking for a change: http://prntscr.com/ec363i

The note has been read, as you can see here: http://prntscr.com/ec36dh

How do i know they were able to reply, and they werent sleeping/etc? Bc it shows in their activity, its been less than 24 hours since their last activity.

Before I start, I just wanna say Ive DONE my half, I just wont give it to them until I get my fixes made. I took a trade with them on November 18th; https://i.gyazo.com/c97d7f3e20b588955cbb93d552c3c690.png They agreed to my trade rules and the image was a Christmas theme. I received the image with errors on Feb 27th; http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22741386/ Between the two dates I asked for multiple updates with being ignored. I had forgotten they had shown me a sketch as well, and I asked for it again multiple times and was refused. I told them if they couldnt provide the sketch I’d cancel. They eventually showed it to me and promised to finish it, but missing that date as well. After seeing two key things forgotten, his freckles and trademark cowlicks, I asked for the simple fixes; https://i.gyazo.com/c7637b283a127a6093e70815943a44d3.png

This went ignored until I noted them again on the 8th.

They told me they cant fix it because they flattened the image. I asked to just add the freckles myself and they said no (which I totally understand!)

They misunderstood and thought I meant the pigtails, even though I screencapped my ref and circled the cowlicks. (I linked his furry ref because its even clearer than the human, but I also linked multiple other human images)

They told me that I never told them before the trade to include the freckles and correct hair; these are NOT optional on his ref sheet. There is no version without them. It is also listed in the description to not forget the freckles because I understand they are hard to miss. They hunted down a version of my ref that I never linked and are claiming thats the one I sent them, which does not say in the description to include the freckles, but the image of the ref is identical and has the freckles and the hair.

Refs I linked them; http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/theo./folder/200490/Ref-sheets and told them to choose which version which is this one; http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20193048/

From the note where I gave refs; https://i.gyazo.com/bbaae81af6b67797172e98b4f9b16574.png the user sales gallery/theo. )

The ref they SAID I gave them; https://i.gyazo.com/35ff3c03b099d9d08ce9b3a0373388c0.png Not the different icon and username. Yellow fish, and tktktk. I never, ever, linked them this ref at all. And besides, the image is identical, its the same source file and has the freckles and cowlicks included. (I use the word hair spikes for them because they didnt understand what a cowlick was)

You can clearly see the cowlicks and freckles.

He sent her the WIP, and her as big Gaara fan noticed that Gaara on the sketch looked quite similiar to an original..so she overlayed things.

Here is the WIP he sent her:

And here is the Original of Gaara:

So.. she started to overlay things to be sure..

After she saw this, she starts to think if her character might be traced too..

Since she felt highly uncomfortable with it, she confronted him and said she wanted her money back.

I am going to show you the conversation - but blacklining her name. This guy is ridiculous.

I think All I wanted to say about it, is stated in the conversations. First he refuses to give her back the money she paid for a traced comission +he gets quite personal and acts very unprofessional.

He even did a status on Deviantart about what happened, when it was my friend who had the right to be upset!

My friend has comissioned plenty of Artists and never has this happened to her! He is ranting without any proofs of whats going on and all of his words are featureless.

When I went through his gallery I noticed that his drawings are very similiar at style from Angelcake12.

And I found this:

WHO: xXxDesired Jinx on Gaia (She changed her username to  Dragon_Yukki) also known as xSerenityMoon on DA

WHAT: She commissioned me for a fullbody couple with a complex background

WHY: Filing false chargebacks on paypal

WHEN: October 26, 2016

EXPLANATION: 

She commissioned me for a fullbody couple with a complex background, which I posted on both DA and tumblr. A week or two after, I got a chargeback from her claiming that she didn’t receive the artwork. 

I wanted to resolve this as peacefully as possible cause it could just have been an honest mistake and maybe she forgot that she commissioned me. BUT considering she blocked me on DA after I emailed her about this issue, this just proves that she did it on purpose and is in fact a scammer.  

Aside from the fact that I posted the artwork twice on different sites, she also said she loved it.
