I'm terrible at commissions. If I don't WANT to draw something, and don't get inspired by it, I'm not a professional enough artist to actually do it. And then, there's a host of things I can't draw, that might not be obvious here because, well, I don't draw them. Then again, when I set my mind to it, I suppose I could learn. I'm practicing drawing monsters now, anyway, which has produced my two demons so far. It's, as usual with me, a matter of motivation. Without motivation I get absolutely nothing done. < 0 even. Negative results. And I don't know how to motivate me or what does it.
Anyway, I'm supposed to be an author, not an artist.
It would be fun however to manage to draw something well enough for someone else. I always thought it would be fun if I could write the script to a comic, and someone better than me could draw it. How would my characters look through someone else's hand and eye? How would they tilt their heads thoughtfully or swing their swords? I'm much more nervous about drawing other people's things. Maybe they won't be satisfied. Maybe it won't be right.
Maybe the moon will fall down on my head! (In outrage, I mean.)
