Artists you should commission/take a look at
13 years ago
I've been told a few times that people like my selection of art I buy from other artists, so I thought I share with you all my list of people I regulary/occassionally commissions I reccommand. There's a few things I'd like to say
1) Please do not hassle the artist. If they do not like your idea, then either try another idea or move to a different artist
2)If someone ask who refere you to them, just say that 'I adverised them.' It sounds more professional then me reccommanding them.
3) I reccommand you not trying to make them change their art style in terms of your commission. (example, making a cartoonist draw more anime style, or making an artist draw like (insert artist). It makes life more simple if you get the type of art style they advertised/more comfortable with.

Zach is possibly one of my favorite artists to not only commission, but to get art from. This guy specializes in cartoony work. The one thing I love about his work is his creativity on what he does with both the character and the situation.
He only works with a two character limit and no more. The way he draws is a more cartoony then anime/ish (if any exists), so if you're a heavy japanese anime nut, then this artist may not be for you ,His colors may seem simple, but they mesh well with what he draws. Surprisingly, he could make practically anything look cute. lol

Lizsama is a talented artist. A Big Mega Man Legends/Sonic/Duckwing Duck fan, as well as a respectable artist.
Her art style leans more into anime as well as western. She has a nice selection of colors, inks, and sketches, so there's plenty of variety. While she doesn't work on adult rated art, her art is still worth the buy IMO.

One of my other favorites. Shonuff just has a lovely design of anime and western. His colors are nice and bright, and his characters are not only original, but fun to see drawn.
Now, there are a lot of things you have to remember with shonuff. The only way of contact is by e-mail, and he doesn't do back-to-back communication like the average artists do. Before you commission him, you have to make sure your description of what you want as well as reference is accurate. The reason of this is cause once you send him the information, he'll reply back with your finished commission(s) (at a reasonable time mind you). There's no 'progress' look of it as well as a do over/fix ups (as far as I know. I wouldn't suggest it in any case). You get what you asked for and that's it.I reccommand you ask for 5 commissions to make things both easier on the pocket as well as time.

[Now before I begin, I like to first of all say that Kayla-na is NOT a bitch. All of the trolls/unpleasant customers she dealt with are saying nothing but bad rumors and are blowing stuff out of proportion. She's really a nice person to talk to; she's just a bit direct with some of the stuff she says (and thus, sensitive people take it a bit too hard). Talking with her might seem like a bumpy road at at first, but she's cool and funny when getting to know her. All I suggest is a few things: respect her opinion, don't act stupid, don't beat a dead horse]
Kayla-na is a very talented artist. She's pretty good at drawing as well as making some facial espressions. She has a good sense of humor (especially when she does those funny censor drawings).
Kayla-na has two types of commissions: Normal commissions and auction ones (where the quality of it seems better). If she doesn't like a said pairing/theme/fetish, please do not take offense to it. She doesn't like drawing herms, but she loves drawing family theme pictures. She doesn't draw humans either, but this would barely be a problem to most people (btw, those examples were old commissions, where she didn't mind drawing human-ish characters at the time).

John is a great guy to not only commission, but to see his art in general. He's probably one of the most professional artists I've seen. If you could respect his rules, he's nothing but greatness. He makes the women so....sexy. :3
There's nothing much to really suggest except don't expect to see your OC drawn by him (unless it's really interesting). I'm sure he has nothing against them, but I think these days, he's more into drawing canon characters. Really worth the money here none the less

Friendliest artist I've met yet. Nice to get along with, as well as fun to bounce ideas with. His characters are also fun to interact with (most of them are slimes, but hey I like slime monsters :3). His art is a bit anime-ish, but he has his own style none the less.
While a lot of his work seem slime-ish, do not be fooled. He can work with humans as well as other anthro-ish beings you have in mind. He has a few selections of type of commissions he's willing to do (like regular art, bust view, etc.). Don't be shy about asking him fetishes (but try not to fling any 'out there'/wtf fetishes either. Cool to work with, but respect his opinion.

OP
Well I didn't advertised every single artist for specific reasons. Some artist I havn't commissioned all that much (and therefore, don't have much of an idea how they're like and if they're good to work with). There are however others I had a displeasure of commissioning (or may have just rubbed me the wrong way). Shouldn't advertised people I have mixed feelings about, you know...

wait you don't mean that I'm....?
