£30-45 portraits and a favour., by idris on Aug 12, 2009 12:02:22 GMT 1, I think requests such as these need to be monitored/regulated - it is a shame how certain individuals feel it perfectly acceptable to take peoples money & then ignore them/fail to contact them/refund their money.
Some would consider it 'theft'

We all have problems, but it only takes a few clicks of a mouse to refund people! No excuse IMO

I certainly wouldn't put money up front in good faith unless I knew him personally. You wouldn't give money to a gallery upfront for a painting that hadn't happened yet, unless it was a commission by a respected artist. I saw this guy on his Flickr in front of some gash pictures he's done, with his face distorted a la Crimewatch (what's that all about?) From what I could see, he hadn't put as much effort into his "exhibition" as he was making out.
If I did a portrait for someone for cash, I'd maybe ask for a deposit first, but wouldn't expect the cash until I delivered.
What a turd!

Really? He's had almost a year to sort this out! All I've received is excuses and false promises. Bet you my refund (ha ha) that we'll see nothing by Xmas!!

I am curious to an accurate figure how many are affected.
