No pay for professional?

Say, you like drawing. How about it, you just want to do it for fun? Ask volunteer as a model, for example? Or want to be professional? This is my bad experience,when I got an illustration project with a fussy employer. I had done as best as I could and followed the detail of his instruction, but nothing seemed to satisfy him. With a lot of revision, he wanted me to correct something trivial after several times turnaround. It took a lot of energy for small money, and I tried to prove my dedication, but ... You have same experience? Share here ...

hello, Oops? sorry for that. Why? he never been satisfied dont he see your effort? Well, I dont have experience like that but my friend does, the thing is the one that instruct him to do that is having no payment at all, he just made it for a favor. And my friend just said yes and then after a while the girl act like she want to revised this and that. Which makes me annoyed and tell to my friend to stop doing that, let her do it herself. And you know what she did? She get the idea of my friend and she let other revised it for her. Bossy!

I never tried to sell my art, and I sure wouldn't try to tell anyone I'm good enough to do so, so happily that's never happened to me, but I have heard horror stories like yours from my artistic friends...
