Having been asked to be involved in a few things in the past this is becoming one of my pet peeves. It may seem like an awful thing to say because someone is offering me the chance to work for them, but they always want something I don’t necessarily do (like cartoon styles or minimal detail) and it sometimes feels like it’s just because I can hold a pencil that they ask me.
Most of the time I get minimal information to the point where I just have to do whatever I can come up with and hope they like it. They usually do- but again, is that because it’s appropriate or because they’re getting it for free/I’m the only artist they know?
Or, worse still, you get the vague hints of what they possibly might want and then it’s up to you to figure it out. Then they want it tomorrow. Which is a different issue all together.
