Faewild's posts

@Amber Lynne: Hehehe. Despite the impression people seem to get from how I type... I do love soft and cute things. Which gets reflected in my art. And then they're surprised when they actually talk to me... Ah, well...

Anyway. Glad you like it. x) That's my entry for the Paper Hearts thing.

Now that it's done, I'll have to draw a bit more tonight to get some samples going for a little mini auction, I think.

@Amber Lynne:

Also, why do I feel like you're trying to convince me to open a shop sooner rather than later? x)

From me to all of you. x)

@Amber Lynne: Good gracious that's so much, congrats to your friend! Well, I won't harbor dreams of the triple digits. x) For sketches, I'd be happy if they reached as high as double digits.

I'm working on a Vibrance Day card for the paper hearts event, and having a lot of fun. Pastel colors, pastel colors everywhere!

@Amber Lynne: ...OH YEAH. Auctions are a thing, huh? Hahaha. Geeze I've been so scatterbrained lately, it's been so long since I did anything on social forums. Hrm, I'll have to peek around and have a looksie at how other people did their thing before I think of doing mine. x)

But I'm definitely interested, mhm. For sure. It seems like fun.

@Amber Lynne: If I open a shop you'll definitely be on the pinglist! It's still something I'd have to consider though. x) And make a few current samples for instead of just old commission examples which may or may not be entirely relevant to my style.

Maybe I'll start off with tallchibi sketches, those are always fun.

I've always been the type to collect/hoard items, so item-for-art trades will definitely be welcome.

@Amber Lynne: Hahaha! I'll be waiting, then. x) (Sketches are cheapest, just saying!) And maybe if I get some pricing I'll offer them for the currency here?

I also added some free coloring pages to the first post, if you're interested. I make them occasionally and never really have places to share them with people, so I'll probably throw some here from now on.

@Amber Lynne: Haha, sorry. It really does depend on what the commissioner wants! The best combination of speed, quality, and cost is usually waist-up line art.

... I could have summed that up so much easier, I'm so sorry. I really did ramble.

Oh lovely, a compliment!

@Hachi: I really appreciate the punk/bat vibe your avatar has going on. Especially with the toothy face mask combined with the sleepy sinister eyes, very premium. Your whole avi concept is very cool.

x) This seems fun.

@Amber Lynne: It depends. On Voltra I haven't really done a pricing thread or anything because I'm not sure what sort of work I'd be willing to do for digital currency. Usually I offer sketches on forum sites, since they're quick and easy and require little effort to make something that looks nice.

For the full-body commission style I've posted so many of, I generally base on about 15$ an hour (counting time spent actually drawing, and not the time spent faffing about and making myself drinks or getting distracted by podcasts and YouTube). I usually give an estimate of how long it'd take and thus what the cost would be after knowing what the person wants done.

I'm pretty fast when actually working, so like... The commission of Pied Piper and Trickster I just did in full color (with the full size psd file included in case changes need to be made later) ended up being 60$ for the two characters. Full color/inked bust or waist-up portraits usually don't end up more than 10-20$ for example. If it's inking and not coloring, it's even cheaper and faster. Those end up being about 10$ at most for a bust, 15 for a waist-up.

I don't actually like offering full-body color commissions, but this was a special occasion and the gift is for a fan of my comic/art, so I was a bit more lenient. x)

Sketches I usually charge about 5$ for busts/waist-ups, and 10$ for full body, just because I get them done so quickly it feels wrong to charge more. I'm not professionally trained and I don't have the Most Best Desired art style so I don't feel comfortable charging too much for any of my work, but I've been smacked around by artist friends often enough that I know better than to charge too little, either.

Heheheh.



In all seriousness, though.



@Amber Lynne: I enjoy the freedom, so long as the person commissioning it knows my uh. Tendencies? I suppose. If they're familiar with my art and want to give me total freedom in design, then it's fine. If it's some random person though, I tend to get nervous and want at least a concept.

@Amber Lynne: I was given total design freedom or just a basic concept idea to work with for all of those, so I had a lot of fun with drawing them. Hehehe.

Is there a way to link directly to specific posts within a thread...?

And since you liked the necromancer, here he is preparing for serious business. It's interesting for me picking out which of these commissions is older, hahaha.

The necromancer commissions are... fairly old. And I have a poor memory, so I'm trying to recall even drawing some of these. How many years has it been? Who were these for? Who am I even?

The answer, as always, is ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

@Amber Lynne: Ah, that's a good idea. And here I was just thinking I'd throw them in this thread, hahaha.
