oh no not at all, ive been thinking about this specific commission for a couple years. i went back and forth on if i would or not but in the end i knew i would regret not doing it and im really excited to see how it turns out. plus his rates went up since last time so who knows what theyll be next time. this is kind of my last hoorah for expensive art pieces, its just hard to ignore what else you can get for that kind of money
ive found in this hobby (statues, art, collectibles etc) for me at least i have a pretty good sense of what something is worth to me. im curating a collection tailored specifically for me to enjoy for as long as i possibly can and i dont want any regrets. i cant get everything i want of course but as the collection fills out ive been a lot better in really dialing in what i want my collection to look like. i dont have any really pressing life responsibilities right now (kids, wife etc) so im doing what i can while i can
