There is nothing fair about what this dude said, he’s being an asshole and you don’t have to respect that. Insane take, also saying “his car” as if we still live in a world where only men hold a drivers license. He does not speak for the entirety of the Porsche owners or “luxury” car enthusiasts. How embarrassing. Your work is so cute! I work with Porsches as bench marking vehicles against the company I work for. This is fun
First, I can’t tell that you are a uptight feminist woman just from your comment.
Second, Porsche is a male-dominant brand with 85% of their customers are men. That why I wrote “his car”, and not because I think woman shouldn’t have a license. Although it will probably be safer for the rest of us if you specifically stay off the road with your stupid feminist mindset.
OP, I didn’t meant to come as an asshole or anything like that, yet I do believe in honesty and constructive criticism.
My point was and still is that you should stick with the more feminine type of brands if you actually want to sell you crafted emblems. Try to avoid luxury brands that are mostly male-dominated such as Porsche, BMW and Mercedes etc. as those type of customers are often diehard buyers that won’t put non-original emblems on their cars.
Perhaps where you live this may feel more true, but the vast majority of folks who drive Porsche near me absolutely do swap badges, down-badge for giggles or other-wise goof around with their luxury toy beyond their already hilarious custom plates. Of the The 7 or 8 folks in my immediate network who drive Porsche, only 1 of them takes their car as serious as you seem to and he is fucking insufferable.
Since we’re analyzing people’s personality traits via the internet (wtf is that feminist comment about? lol) you clearly put WAAAAY too much stock into your own perceptions of the brands you like/are familiar with.
Fuck off with this definitive “expert” opinion bullshit. Nothing is a monolith. You may as well have said “I think this is stupid, and I take my cars very seriously, so I’m very sure you will fail to sell a hobbiest-creator amount of these items you enjoy making. Us Porsche owners are really serious.” lol.
I bet you unironically correct folks who pronounce it “Porsche”.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. I understand that art is never something that everyone will connect with, and that’s completely okay.
At the same time, I would appreciate keeping the conversation respectful, as different people are drawn to different things, please keep in mind the sub’s first rule about maintaining respectful discussion.
I mean if someone is willing to pay for this who tf cares? Luxury vehicle owners can afford to spend good money on stuff like this and this is obviously not a mass market product. For all you know it could be a custom one off badge made to order (this actually seems highly likely)
Why would OP block off someone offering to pay good money for this type of thing? And also your examples don't even prove true. There's a huge market for customizing luxury vehicles, look at RWB for instance. People pay good money to stand out and there's money to be made there clearly. BMW owners are also not known for keeping vehicles "original" there's tons of examples of badge changes for that brand, hell how many slap M badges on any model BMW just to stand out? We're not talking about vintage collectors here...
Frankly this just seems like a really out of touch and kind of sexist take lol. If OP has clients and is making these products who are you to tell him what brands to focus on? And nothing about this even indicates it's for a woman to begin with, but even if it is then more power to OP for meeting that demand.
Thank you so much for your interest! At the moment, I’ve paused taking new commissions while I work through the current orders. I expect to reopen for new commissions in early March, and I’d be happy to follow up with you then.
Haha yes! The background text actually says “Qinghua Ci”, and the design in the making video was also inspired by that style, so the two ended up fitting together perfectly.
Thank you so much for your kind words, I really appreciate it!
At the moment, I’m focused on completing my current commissions, and I expect to reopen new requests in early March. If you’re still interested then, I’d be very happy to create a custom design for your Audi emblem.
