random 2 tryin the linin'
8 years ago
General
One of my friends gave me the idea to like try to make a system for doing commissions
Her advice was to lineart all the commissions that need to be linearted
sketch all the ones that need to be sketched
and finish all the ones that are flat colored
So I attempted to do this but came across some issues and I can't tell if it is benefiting me or anyone else or my old tactic of working on one at a time is better
So it's about three days in to trying this new tactic
I only managed to lineart two commissions within two days.
I work from 11:00 pm-3:00 am at most
((this gives me about two/three hours to mindlessly doodle for myself up until I fall asleep)
I realized when attempting to do nothing but straight linearting it took me all the way from 11:00 to 3:00 to do two pictures
I'm pretty slow.
It took even longer to sketch two commissions.
So is it more productive to skip a probably upload, like say
3 out of 4 days
I could upload maybe two out of four
but if I skip one of those days I could upload three out of four
same wait time I think(?) just more commissions
I'm not rushing stuff because 1: you guys are wonderfully patient. Like holy shit have you seen the people on deviantart? I was working for something like 200 points, barely $100 of real money when converted, and I managed to get out ten commissions a week at one points
everyone over there was still like you're too slow
everyone on FA is freaking wonderfully nice and patient like damn
now if this was deviantart I'd most likely be rushing shit because people over there keep TELLING me to rush even if they're gonna bitch over the quality drop
my FA homies deserve like
all I can give into the commission
hence why I shant rush
anyways random tactic observation and stuff
if anyone ever asks who's nicer community wise FA is def nicer.
It's so shartling how different DA is compared to FA.
Everyone I've come across on FA is pretty nice
I made a random ass DA account to test how it is to new users.
-No one trusts you
annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnddd the first comment I got was someone being rude ahaha
First FA comment I got was a nice one.xD
FA is bttr than DA
Anyways currently trying to work out some debts
like I owe $170 for a collectable
$550-300 for a wolf softmount completed
$290 for a skullfox plushie
$200 for a rabbit replica I promised a friend
annnnnnnnnnnnnnd something like $100 for headphones
I'm hoping to finish the bulk of my commissions so I can upload like
5 YCHS at once so I can get some monies to pay stuff off
It's already almost three over here and I've only managed to complete one YCH
weh
I am sorry am slow
wehhjhdgnfgfg
I feel like I should be pumpin' commizzles faster but I guess a probably three a day isn't too bad tbh
may go with my second tactic
