Rob could get pretty much anyone to paint his kid, you painting him then asking if he wants you to paint angus, it just looks like you're sucking up to him for whatever reason. Besides, you already said that you don't actually paint those, you just apply some filters to them, which kind of defies the point. It's not like they look especially good. No offence.
Secondly, simply by posting something, and especially by complaining no-one likes your work, you are asking for attention. Just because it's not explicit, doesn't mean it's not there.

three. I never EVER said I applied filters to my brushed artwork, you just assumed it. If I't's filters then reproduce it. I'm only having a laugh with my original post but being told I just apply a couple of filters? That pisses me off.

So you weren't just offering to make a picture, you were asking for something in return. If Rob had accepted, every mong who wants to see their name in the newsletter would have come out of the woodwork making similar offers. I don't think he had any choice but to politely decline.
