Of course!

Oh I love answering to requests like that. I used to do that on DA also in the past lol
Anyway, yeah, I'd love an invite if you could! My job is getting a bit rocky lately with new management being a turd. S'why I'm obnoxiously focused on trying to get some extra work in in between college nonsense xD

@amber lynne:
Awesome xD
if you're ever serious, hmu! Although I dont know if I'm even allowed to discuss it on this site.

That's about as much as I'd charge for them. I might've lost my touch with advertising though, which might be my problem. In ye olde days, a little post in DA job forums and I'd have a couple notes for orders. Something $5 worth would have a few. But not so many look there anymore P:
Then there's artfight discord that I'm in, but there are loads of minors who cant use paypal/anything other than DA currency on there. Besides these, dunno how to advertise without a following lmao

Yes exactly <3 Just need to get my focus back on track is all!

Man I thought of a fun project to work on. Dunno if I'd ever finish. But I saw something online that some art mentor made. Like an RPG style game with like, art quests and junk. Im curious enough to want to buy it, since its meant for helping artists build a fun portfolio and such. I wonder how it actually works or plays out.

BUT also made me think.. what if I implemented something like that in the forums? Make a bit of a choose your own adventure story that encourages drawing through art prompts and such.
Liiiike, say someone chooses to go to a specified place in the story, they click on a link that directs them to the post which continues their path. In that post, describes they run into an NPC who needs an item. The quest is to draw that item for them, and then you'd move on to the next bit.

I've been tapping my chin for a couple of hours thinking about how to make it work. Could be fun, or could be a mess of me attempting to organize a story, coding, many links and images, all with the glory of my adhd brain :vanora_xd:

@amber lynne:
Haha thank you! I wonder if I could make some cheap rlc out of them ;;
think it'd be wanted at all or nah?

Oooo yes, I like that idea as well! I'll keep in mind as I work on it

Yeah, I used to be good about practicing that. But I think once I got so focused on work and college, I kinda resorted back to boring, rigid portraits. I gotta work on that <3

Okay I might like these ;;
better with transparent

Awesome! I'm sure they take a percentage of whatever you'd earn, assuming these are paid for things. But considering the service is helpful thats usually fine with me.
I need to practice on my lineart before I really bother with coloring book pages. Need to figure out how to make it look more interesting xD

Thanks <3

Adhd kicks in, time to practice chibis again

I wonder if I could make this a proper base to use~

Ohhh that sounds so much fun! I'll look into it here in a moment. Not that I have time for big projects right now xD
But I'm good at trying!

Makes sense. Have you looked into credit unions for banking? They're not as secure as a bank-bank, but they're free. I think the one I used to have only required that I keep $50 in my checking to keep my savings open, and a minimum of $5 in savings to keep it all free. Thats a good practice to have anyways xD
The fraud I had to resolve a couple of times was annoying for sure, but I would still recommend credit unions for people who don't have enough income to hold a bank account yet. Then, when you're solid, its super easy to close them out and transfer to a more secure place.

Ohh, what is KDP? That sounds like a fun project. Also, you can set up a paypal without a bank account, but I think it only holds the money for a certain amount of time. Cant remember if its years or months, but I\d look into that~

LOL
me too
I'm actually working on non-pixel art though, so I'm not compleeeeetely procrastinating!

@avocado:
Its been inactive, but yes I still use it c:

@amber lynne:
Thanks for the advice! Thats kinda what I was thinking of doing too. Maybe I could draw another character outside the window pulling her attention also, or something like that.

and whoops, I was only thinking of my own viewing comfort xD
I'll put everything in spoilers since its literally all gonna be high res lmao

Congratulations!! <3
