Concerning commissions
11 years ago
General
I wasn't planning doing commissions when I joined FA.
And I don't consider art as a profession to earn money. I want it to be a hobby, not an obligation, otherwise I'll start to hate it very soon.
But pr0n art is a "genre" people are willing to pay for, it seems. I hadn't expected it at first. Nor had I expected that people would ask me am I open for commissions.
It makes me think about taking commissions now and then. And now is just the moment.
I'd like to draw something, but I have no idea of my own which may worth spending my time on it.
But then a number of questions arise.
Usually artists offer several types of commissions, like sketch, simple painting, detailed painting with or without background, badges, references, and so on. I usually upload only [what I consider] detailed paintings and I don't upload anything "less finished". Which options would you prefer?
Prices. It's a sore point for me. Few my watchers already know that.
Would anyone be interested in a following type of commission: 2 characters, one of them is yours and you pay as for one character (or even a bit less) and another one is mine? It's like a co-commission but with me as an artist AND a co-commissioner at the same time :D. And it would be much cheaper than regular 2-characters commission.
Edit: my character may be feral or anthro, male of female, pretty much versatile.
So maybe the discussion (if any) will help me to sort it out.

My character.. a feral or anthro white and cream colored labrador of male gender, I don't have a reference thing yet... Does that work with anything?
Though I haven't drawn canines before.
I'm working on another commission. You may describe your idea in more detail in the meanwhile and I'll add you to the queue.
No name yet. I'm too picky and haven't come up with something I want to use as a name yet.
Two last commissions were with male characters and I'd like to maintain a decent male/female ratio in my gallery :D, so...
If you've got your artist paws idle again some day, this big kitty would be very pleased getting to play with a sexy chee =^.^=
