There was one other entry, but it was a stick figure. How did you get into working as an artist? I'm also curious how you decide on prices (but you don't have to talk about it if you don't want)?


Oh, yeah, that's right. smile

Hmm. I think it started with my art website, which was up before there were many artists online. I got a lot of random requests back then for artwork even when I wasn't offering, probably because there were so few artist websites at the time. I started taking projects after a while, drawing illustrations for magazines and designing logos for people and things like that when opportunities came up. I also got a good amount of work from my university while I was there. smile That was pretty much how it began, I guess.

EDIT: Oh, for pricing, I base it on this industry handbook thing. I charge lower than their recommended cost for personal-use art, though.
Because that's how I bump threads. Instead of saying "bump" I do animal noises. XD

Cool! So you've been doing this a long time then. What book do you use if you don't mind me asking?
