So, since I've been stuck in such tight financial problems I thought of a "solution" to start gaining money for what I do, and it's drawing.

I've been wanting for a while now a tablet to increase my talent in drawing and get into digital paintings later on.

All drawings will be done and sold digitally, which means that will cost the shipping price for me and the customer.

Now, there are a few things to think of before starting the "business" and are prices and a few other small problems, like comissions.

Note that is now a desperate way I'm taking in order to get what I need.

Do you think it might work? and if so, how much should I charge for a drawing, knowing that it is real money we are talking about here.

I highly doubt you'll make enough for it to be worth the time and effort.

With your talent and speed with which you can draw, photoshop or color by hand, it's worth a shot. If you are selling to people on the guild, depending on the time it takes, and size of pictures, I would say start at $5.00 for a small picture, and maybe max out at $20.00 for a large on that takes more time and effort.. And have you thought about doing some of your drawings or paintings and selling them in the DR.. You are talented. As for commissions, if you can get them there, do it. You have the talent, and have taken commissions from us here so why not. Remember that if you do get commissions from the US, have the people send INTERNATIONAL money orders for payment. That's the only thing that is acceptable money from us to you.

I think it is a great idea even if someone else doubts that it is possible. I have seen Lone do it. So why not for yourself? I got paypal wink

forgot about paypal and credit cards- if you have some way of getting a credit card payment- paypal just transfers to your checking account. That would be great- and if some people here are skeptical, ignore them- they have their opinions, but then- they are always skeptical of everything.
