Hey, so I was thinking of starting an Art Shop, but I don't have any samples of commissions, so I thought I would ask around in my lovely guild and see if anyone would like one (although, I probably won't charge much!). I usually go for realism/semi-realism, but I can do more stylized stuff as well.

Although I don't have much in the way of drawings, there are a few examples here: http://feigning-ignorance.deviantart.com/

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

I normally give away freebies when I want to create samples. I like to make people compete for my affections by trying to provide me with the most interesting avi/OC.

I would commission you for an OC depending on what you would charge. Just 'cause I don't have a ton right now. I have 225k ready for me as soon as I finish this commish I got, but I'm not really questing art or anything so...basically I'm stingy <_<

Oh, and I highly recommend reading Djubre's guide to making an art shop. Entertaining and informative.

Well, when I was saying I wouldn't charge much, I was talking maybe a few thousand... That shouldn't be too bad, right?

Oh, yeah, I can do that.

So, yeah, I'll commission you.

OC~
Name: Keyra "K" Meadows
Age: 15(ish)
Appearance: straight, light brown hair with warm undertones which is cut roughly at chin length(and I mean the cut is rough). light/bright blue eyes. Quite thin and wiry. Average attractiveness. She freckles instead of tanning.
Attire: Think Renaissance tom-boy. Leather boots and vest, fitted linen pants, and some old white shirt. It's warm where she is, so keep that in mind. Alternatively, she does sometimes wear a kerchief on her head and a skirt(knee-length).
Bio: She's a run-away/orphan/street urchin so she's usually unkempt and underfed. She is a little naive and very curious about the world. Also, she is very self-aware and good at thinking on her feet. Generally positive attitude.
Refs sad bad refs are bad)[x][x]
Payment:10k(And, now I feel like a jerk for paying so little for art, but ... whatever)

Hope I didn't overload you with info. Sorry, no good refs.

I'll get to work as soon as I can! I'm moving into college tomorrow, and then commences a week of freshman orientation, but hopefully we'll have some time to do other stuff...

Do you want it to be full body? Colored? A specific pose, expression, props? Or is that all up to me?
PostPosted: Sun Aug 15, 2010 8:23 am


full body colored would be nice, though I love linework with just a little black and white texturing, too. Whatever you want, really. I'd prefer she not look depressed, but other than that I'll leave it up to you.

Have fun moving in to college! I just got settled into my dorm and started work in the dining halls (yay, third year!) so I know how hectic it can be. Take your time.

How much is a few thousands? And if I were to ask for a commission, what things you just can't draw?

Probably less than 20k. I hope that's not too much...

I'd probably avoid cluttered avatars and furries, but that's all I can think of...

Umm... whatever floats your boat, I guess. I don't really have any rules yet...
