Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

didn't walt disney also say, "hire some nazis! DO IT NOW! let's make some animations that will put the fear of god into the jews!!"

or was that another in my series of nightmares about blatantly anti-semitic historic celebrities? :rotfl

Ha. That's what I get for trying to say something positive around here.
 
Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

Kevin, again... I understand why you feel the way you do. But you need to understand that MY situation is not Les' situation. We have entirely different lives despite our similar hobby. He has his own set of challenges, as do I. What works for him may not work for me.

Les is more well organized than I have ever been, which is a plus for him. I'm married, which adds to my own problems with allocating times... I can go on and on with this. The point is, Les is not me and I am not Les. I have nothing but respect for what he has been able to do, and I am continuously praising him for his approach to his backlog. I can't do it the same way he is doing it, it's just not feasible for me.

And I didn't just ignore your PM's. I even ignored PM's from my BEST friends on this site. It's not my choice, I just haven't had the time to sort through the mountain of them in my inbox. Again, I have no secretary to do this for me. And I would rather spend my 30 mins to an hour painting a day than doing that. In fact, my responding to your posts has dipped into my paint time. :lol

And as everyone has said... I have responded to you time and time again in this thread. I have given you every scrap of information about my life, the commission, etc. that I can possibly give. I've apologized and given you the full details of what I plan to do. Yet still you come in here and talk smack.

So please, for the love of God... just shut up already. I'm tired of having to continue to beat a dead horse with my constant restating of the facts in this case. I honestly don't know what else you want from me.

And to all of those people who PM you or anyone else who has ever bashed me (because I have heard that song before), seriously... say it to my face if you have the stones. Say it here, be a man (or woman) and face me. You have a problem? State it. I'm tired of these stupid internet wars, it's time to sack up people. I'm a real person with real problems, I'm not some company you can talk ____ about because I didn't do everything perfect for you. I admitted my failings, have stated a plan to right it, what the ____ else do you people want?

Seriously, you have a problem... say something. Let's not play games anymore, I can take it. And if I ever see any of you smack talkers in person, I guarantee you it won't be pleasant. I'm not going to be anybody's doormat any longer. I'm going to share my opinions honestly, because it's better than holding it in and letting it drag me down.

I'm doing everything I can. I will continue to do so until I can't any longer. There is nothing else that can be done.
 
Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

Just cleaned up the personal attacks/derailing/b.s. posts.

Once again, I ask all of you to remain civil with eachother. I ask others to quit derailing this thread with popcorn gifs and remarks that are not productive to this thread.

Next time I clean this up I will be issuing infractions TO EVERYONE INVOLVED.

:banghead

It will be a while man, I can tell you that. And it will follow the stipulations I have already stated. You will get the parts, all the stuff bought to make him. And I will refund the commission fee.
 
Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

Richalot, that's fine with me man... I will work it out for you bro. Sorry to ignore your past posts.

Great! I'm not sure if you have my return address or not so let me know how we can communicate since you're not checking PMs. If you can send them off in the next week it would be greatly appreciated and as I mentioned, I'm happy to just get the items back and get out of your hair. Don't worry about any painting or refunds.
 
No problem Rich, I will check my paypal and let you know if I need more information. I appreciate you being so forgiving on this man, it means a lot. Sorry again for everything. :duff
 
Re: DarkArtist's Creations of DOOM!

Ha. That's what I get for trying to say something positive around here.

:rotfl only joking bud - wasn't meant as a personal attack. i actually liked that quote you posted. and he did make the second best movie ever featuring deer hunting.

i'm with rich on this one josh. no refund necessary. just let me know shipping when you can. ta very much. and i was thinking yesterday, i wonder what your wife must think of all of us. she probably thinks we're a right bag of douches for the way this has affected you. i'd be more scared of seeing her face to face than you even - she'd probably layeth the smacketh down on my candy ass.
 
Thanks Josh for the refund, the amount is fine.

Hope you get everything sorted with the issues in this thread.

All the best

Cheers
Dom
 
Hey Josh,
Just wanted to pass along some positive energy... While I can't say I know how you feel, I can at least UNDERSTAND how you feel. I have watched your thread since Evil Ash all those many years ago and have seen you and others here grow by leaps and bounds and I was always a little envious of you and your talent. Having tried my hand at the repaint business (done a few here and there), I always wished I could catch on like you and Les did... but seeing the avalanche that comes with recognition, I'm grateful my commissions have been small and scattered. I understand how it feels to have someone marvel at your work and I know the feeling of wanting to share with the world. But like anything else, I see fame and recognition have a price. I can't begin to imagine how exhausting it must be to paint the same thing over and over and over... The fact that you got this far is a testament to your willingness to try to please everyone. I'm sorry that things have spiraled out of control for you and hope that this hasn't soured you on what should be a passion, not a chore....
Peace be with you my brother, and remember my favorite quote:

"This too, shall pass."
 
Josh,

I am not sure if you got my PM or not about casting the Ash parts to help out you out. Shoot me a PM if you want any details. Just seeing if I can help out man. I owe it to you anyway :duh

Thanks,
Ryan
 
Hey man - I'm sending the postage-paid box tomorrow. You might not be able to hand it to your mailman, it might need to be dropped off at the post office.

Meanwhile, I had a thought - how do you go about casting the masks for the Jason figures? Do you have a mold or something? If you want (and if you trust me enough,) go ahead stick the mold into the box, too! I'll try making the masks myself and, as suggested earlier, make some extras too! Then I'll send the mold back. Or, if I come to the conclusion I REALLY have no idea what I'm doing, I'll just return the mold without using it.

Lemme know if you want to let me have a whack at it!

- J
 
No problem Rich, I will check my paypal and let you know if I need more information. I appreciate you being so forgiving on this man, it means a lot. Sorry again for everything. :duff

Hello Josh, I don't know if this has been answered yet, and I am at the point of acceptance that I'll get it when I do, but how far off are you away from sending off both the Jack Torrence and Joker? If you need postage I can help. If you're still months off that is a-oh-kay with me sir.
 
Received my DA joker but never posted pics.

Just thought i would post them now.

hey josh

hope all is good. Let me know if its too much to finish the Lee batman statue and how far along you are. I said before if its too much right now I understand just send it back. If you are close to finish that would be cool too. Either way is cool and I dont need any sort of refund for your paint work. I will also cover the shipping charges back to me....just let me know how much when youre ready. Keep it up bro :rock
 
Hey guys! Sorry I have been absent these past few days. My computer crapped out on me, and I lost everything I had in there. The entire hard drive was wiped in my efforts to restore it. But the Wife and I went and picked up a laptop (which I am still trying to get used to) from Aaron's. So I will be working from this from now on.

I will respond to the questions here as soon as I can, and I have some pictures to show soon as well. I did some work this weekend and actually got some stuff done.
