The last thread was fun, let's give it another try. This thread is for artists to post their commission information, and for commissioners to make connections and look for artists that meet their needs. Artists and commissioners are welcome to post pictures of their previous commissions, and all are encouraged to discuss commission tips and politics.
Also, if anyone has the link to the google doc that was posted in the last thread, please post it!

I appreciate the assist. I'm not an expert at making threads, but no one else was doing it.
Also, I didn't think 'lehappymerchant' was exclusive to anything. He's been around for a long time.
i'll start it off posting my commission prices then!
hey guys! i'd love to work on your commissions! i've done a few commissions from here and im very open to different fetishes (thats not on the no to do list)
give me a hit if you want to commission me
>>522270
No expansion? So like no breast expansion?
>>522302
yeah, supersizing things arent my thing, sorry
I opened 3 commission slots recently, and one is currently filled. Please drop me a line if you're interested in filling one of the other two.
>>522270
Ah! Can my pic include two characters for the basic price? That "past 2" remark tells me yes, that i only pay for the third onwards, but i want to be sure.
Also i can't remember if you've mentioned if characters based on Live-Action looks are ok. I been asking about some Gotham characters in the past threads.
>shill shill shill
Open to commissions 'n stuff, yo
>>522384
Hey, if you're going to shill anywhere, this is the place to do it. Might as well keep it all in one place, right?
>>522392
Ye :V
Having a YCH auction
>>522480
Can you elaborate on this. It's vague and I'm not familiar with whatever all that means.
>>522668
Basically you bid on the art to have a character of your choice in that position.
There's a futa variant for people that want it.
It'll be lined, colored and can be changed to have clothes and such
I killed the last thread, but whatever. I'm doing commissions with flexible pricing, the more work that needs to be done the higher the price, generally. Email me at [email protected] if you're interested in something. More details here;
http://sapper-freesartblog.tumblr.com/commissions
>>522480
>>522672
(I actually changed the price. that was an old file. Oops)
>>522360
yeah pretty much 2 characters is base price, and characters from live action are ok, just as long as you're telling me to draw the character and not the IRL actor.
>>522678
>I killed the last thread
You did not. Autosage killed the last thread. You just had the misfortune of posting while the thread was 3 threads away from deletion.
>>522731
Eh, that's what it felt like anyway. Oh well.
>>522743
I'm sure you'll have better luck this time.
Hey I've got a bunch of commission slots open if anyone wants one: hahahaboobies.tumblr.com/commission
Hey, just tossing up info for people who are interested. I'm open for commissions, here's the tumbls and a recent pic for quality reference.
Commission info is on the tumblr, and even if you don't want to commission I do try to post regularly.
Also I'll check back if anyone has questions here.

Comic strips are $35 a page
Finished this up an hour ago, and am somewhat pleased with it
I have a commission page i usually post but am not really happy with anything on it atm

Do you mean realistic or in the artist style? I have no problem doing real people (within reason) but it will end up in a more cartoony style
>>523199
I have found one person willing to do it, but he stopped a few years ago. I'm not sure why it's so hard to find people willing to do this.
>>522691
Alright that's good to know. I believe you were my top choice when i was looking last time, but i think something regarding the extra character pricing made me rethink and i went with someone else.
Now that i got this clear, i'll be sure to consider you for my next commission.
Decided to post my commission sale information. At the moment, there's only one slot available out of five (but I should have two open up this weekend)
(Here's a sample sheet of my art http://imgur.com/a/D2Qxa )
Full Body Base Prices for the Sale (not counting complex bgs or extra characters)

P.S. My apologies for this insane wall of text.
>>523618
>posts a completely reasonable amount of text
>apologizes for it
Sometimes I hate this illiterate world we live in.
Nice samples, btw.
>>523199
I think the issue usually stems from two things:
1. Artists can't draw real people all that well
2. Creeps ask for porn of their IRL crush that they then fap to furiously
I personally am fine with drawing real people in some circumstances. E.g. actors, celebrities, live-action characters. However, I think "draw my gf/wife/some girl" is usually pretty creepy.
>>523706
While 1. is debateable based on the artists involved. some people have even requested caricaturized/cartoon-y versions of real life characters.
No.2 is well true... I've had a commissioner did that once, told him to get permission (after he kept insisting a bunch), never heard from him again lol
Creepy non the less
>>523775
Ugh, I've said this in previous threads, but I've had a guy ask me several times to draw his wife getting raped. Sooo not interested.
If someone asked me to draw a celebrity naked or having sex, I think I'd be ok with it, but not rape. When it involves a real person, suddenly the creepyness factor skyrockets.
>>523839
I guess it depends for me. I've drawn real people, in sexual situations and such and it really just comes off as "this generic person being fucked"
Unless you have that weird style that has a MAD style face that makes it painfully obvious who it is, any porn, rape or not, is fine.
That's me though

>WILL NOT DO: ...PREGNANT

NEWSFLASH: Not everyone shares your fetish!
Solution? Advertise on this thread that you're looking for someone who does. Maybe you'll get lucky and find someone you're interested in!
>>523267
I want them to be recognisable as that person, rather than a more abstract representation I'm interested in the person primarily rather than the character. e.g. I'd rather they look closer to Scarlet Johansson than be recognisable as the Black Widow.
>>523706
Yeah, I understand. I'm looking for celebrities.
Has anyone else had problems with flaky artists?
Ones that are discussing commisisons only to disappear and reappear later having forgotten your request, or else ones that start you request and take months to finish?
I don't know if I've had bad luck but it's put me off.
>>524111
I've been the flaky artist before, and it's not fun. Something beyond your control will come up, or you'll honestly forget, or something, and you want so badly to appear professional, and you feel really guilty about it, but sometimes you're forced to give the commissioner the run-around. I'm pretty sure most artists will agree, even if they won't admit it.
Being flaky? Actually pretty stressful for both parties involved.
>>524111
usually i always tell my commissioners an estimate date on when i'll finish their work. if i dont say anything or deliver by then. they can complain all they want or even get a refund. you gotta stay proffessional if you want good connections.
also, quick question. does anybody know any other place to advertise/promote commissions? (not necessarily NSFW ones) aside from here?
>>524226
tumblr, deviantart, furaffinity, and pixiv all come to mind.
>>524547
Sure. There are tons of places now, really.
>>524111
This is why i always take the payment when i am done with the commissions, gives me a push to end them in time and the client ends up happy.
>>524623
This is good advice. The only downside is that it's on the artist to be wary of flaky payment.
>>524623
You know, that actually makes sense. I thought it was strange initially that some artists wouldn't take anything before finishing but I hadn't thought about it motvating them too.
Is it rude to email them if you haven't heard in a couple of weeks and the piece is pretty far along?
>>524623
i think it just ends up to how responsible the artist is. if you're taking the persons cash, you'd best deliver to your promise and not ditch them out. with my only problem with paying after its done is that there are people who don't pay and theres really nothing you can do about that since the transaction still hasn't been made.
>>524654
if you've already paid, then you have the right to know how their work has gone so far in my opinion. if i commissioned something and they haven't said anything for a week i'd be sure as hell be anxious to know whats currently happening. ask away. but i guess just don't be super clingy about it.
>>524654
>Is it rude to email them if you haven't heard in a couple of weeks and the piece is pretty far along?
Try using the phrase 'just wanted to touch base'. That's pretty much code for 'not trying to rush you, just want to make sure you're not dead'.
>>524167
I've had this happen to me more than once. It's pretty stressful to have half your entertainment budget stolen too.
>>524675
I dunno...I always feel particularly shitty when payment is given early... It's like when the job is done I feel like I havent gotten anything even when the payment is already sent :c
The payment at the end is like a mini celebration for myself to do some shopping :3
Here is my commission info.
>>524111
I've not been the flaky artist yet, but some days are tough for a lot of reasons and I end up feeling bad if I can't work on my commissions.
I wish there was a way to tell clients "Hey. I'm not giving up on your piece. But if I pick up that pen again today I will probably stab it through the screen."
>>525328
Wow. I can not get the right fucking file to save my life. This is a day of struggles.
>>525328
>I wish there was a way to tell clients "Hey. I'm not giving up on your piece. But if I pick up that pen again today I will probably stab it through the screen."
I really wish artists would be more comfortable just pinging an email to say that it's the case. I don't need daily updates but I really appreciate just getting an idea of when to expect the finished thing, even it's delayed because the artist isn't feeling it. It means I can stop refreshing my inbox, for one thing.
>>525619
Seriously. I have two commissions or that I haven't heard back from in weeks after saying they'd "get started on it soon". I reached out to both of them and they both seemed relatively peeved that I did. I feel like if they respond to your message and accept your commission within an hour, and then three weeks go by and you haven't heard a peep, you have the right to reach out, right?
I would love it if a commissioner would send me a message with that exact script that Rando posted. Then at least I know they give a shit, you know?
Bad Commissioner vent time. Sorta on topic
The dude I mentioned before, threatening to ask for a refund if I don't finish his pieces in a certain time. I've been sending him pictures everyday (completed pieces, very draining) and he has been completely silent. No replies to each piece.
Yet he threatened me because I didn't message him after 2 days. I feel like I'm just sending pictures into a void
>>525751
Keep sending pics and don't give a refund
If you're doing it then he has no reason to complain
You need to learn to say no to people
Worst case is he doesn't work with you again but from the sound of it you shouldn't care if he does or not
This kinda stuff is unappreciated and people will take advantage of you
>>525751
Is this the guy that bulk ordered pictures?
That sucks, I always try to make the artist feel appreciated.
>>525751
Double check your outgoing address. Make sure youre sending them to his email and didn't mistype it by accident.
Better yet, resend them all again as a direct reply-to-sender to his pissfit just be be sure. Passive aggressive backhand if he's actually bad, doublechecking measure if you goofed and hes legit worried because hasn't seen any art since he paid you.
>>525795
Honestly dude I would just dump him. I don't understand how he can bring retribution on you for it. You give him a partial refund for whatever isn't finished, and you cut contact. Block his email. Change your email even. Give him no way to contact you, and if he makes a fuss, you can publish the whole story on your blog or whatever site, yknow? I'm not an artist so I could be talking out my ass, but.
>>525751
Are you the wife guy? Just curious
>>522480
auctions are tier 2 cancer.
>outbid one another to maximise my profits for a reduced workload!
nyunzzi does a lot of these
>>526562
So? It's not like anyone's being forced to participate
>>526588
No, nobody's forced to. That doesn't make the current form YCH auctions take any less questionable. Bidding on these can easily outstrip an artists regular fee and for what?
An image whose bones are already set up. If they where ever cheaper, to offset the cut back buyer freedom then it'd be fine. But they're not. to use the same example Nyuunzi does these regularly, you have minimal input and the artist ends up pulling a tidy profit for something that takes less effort
I kind of like the artists using names, so we know who we're talking to. Case in point
>>525327
Post the Iop! Thread could always use more elfrape.
>>526588
And the artist isn't forced to read criticism either. Dislike free speech? Downvote me.
I think it's profanely lazy too. Even people of legendary renown like DrGraevling, I would never pay for a specific scenario, unless it fit into 100% of my kinks. And even then... I could always just comission them separately, to that description. Without a bid war, and his YCH is starting at 45$, top 10% of all drawfags in this thread. (mean price is like 30)
Only time it works is if it starts at almost nothing, and you get a chance to win cheap art. That I can get behind.
But whatever, this isn't a FUCKING NORMALFAGS post, I don't give a shit if someone wants to adopt a different selling strategy. Power to you, chubby-drawfag-kun. I'm just expressing disagreement.
>>526638
For all your salt anon, you do raise the same points as me. An artist can spend the afternoon churning out YCH templates and then not have to worry about pose or unfamiliar anatomy, and that is fine. When the bids start very low instead of upwards of half an artists regular fee.
It's nowhere, NOWHERE as bad as artists who demand you catch their interest while remaining within their accepted content (cupcake) but still kind of annoying. YCH auctions are just that, an annoyance and poorly priced. There's certainly worse problems out there
Commissioners and Artist, have you ever wanted or had someone different color semen? Like neon colors?
>>527035
Not personally but I can kind of see the appeal.
>>526907
its the idea of being asked to pay an often decent sum for porn you are not in full creative control of. It defeats the point of paying for custom lewds in the first place. I dislike the idea of paying one artist for a pre-picked pose with my desired look when for the same price I could go to somebody who won't limit me, or buy several pieces from a third artist who compensates for the lack of creative freedom with a lower fee.
It's the belief that you're getting somehow ripped off. So even if you don't partake directly the idea can offend
>>526626
Eh ^^" I don't really like posting my own commissioned arts... I mean I do it sometimes, but only when it's in topic, If my commissioners are happy enough, I'm sure they'll upload them on my behalf ^^
>>526907
I agree, an artist should be able to decide on how they want to handle their own business and its up to the commissioners to be responsible to figure out how they want to support their artists... We're not exactly slaves, some of us just want to give fair ground on who wants our work more instead of people complaining about price tags.
At least some of artists are nice enough to give out free art requests for absolutely nothing. No one really takes notice to that unlike overpriced YCH commissions...
>>524111
Had a guy not post any update progress for like 4 months(he sent me a initial sketch/colored sketch of the pose I comm'd quick tho.), then he tells me he had to change the original pose because it was too hard for him. The new pose he did was alright, but I really liked the original one more.
I should of asked for him to do the original pose instead of sorta just going with it. But I just kinda wanted the comm done by that point.
It wasn't even a big comm, just a single character with no background.
>>527177
Man, that's annoying when you've agreed on something, you've put money down and then they decide part of it can't be done.
The whole no updates thing for weeks/months is really annoying. I can empathise with the artist where the longer they leave it, the harder it is to reply.
I'll still take a message to say there's been no progress over silence, though.
>>527212
i don't remember doing a ms. fortune request. but i do frequent drawthreads and free requests. the quality between commission works and free requests are varying different though (of course i'd place more effort on commissioned works)
or was it that robo-fortune one? i dunno.

Iops have no noses. LRN2 Wakfu

>>527192
Agreed. Even if it's just a short message like "I'm sorry, but work/school/prison has been really harsh lately, and I haven't been able to work on it", that puts me more at ease than not hearing anything at all. At least it lets me know you're alive.
>>527547
Yeah, I think it's even more important if they have shown you something because otherwise it feels like they decided it was just too much effort and gave up.
There's one artist I know and their work is spectacular but they are so flaky I don't think I can commission them again. It's a crime because they're probably my favourite artist.
>>527305

I saw this joke coming from a mile away like the iceberg to the Titanic.
If liking noseless curvy rock-stupid action girls is wrong, I don't want to be right. Been in love with them since I first stumbled on Gueuzav's DA.
I am torn. I've been obsessing about starting to draw porn. I've been drawing for a while now as a hobby and I think I'm good enough for it to plausibly work.
I don't care about any hypothetical art career I would be ruining, I don't think that would exist in any universe. My gf would even be supportive.
Yet... I don't know. Should I? I'd love to make money doing something that frankly I enjoy. I'd be open to OCs, futa, celebs, gay, breast expansion and others; closed to minors, rape, furry, ponies, scat/diapers and similar shit. In these limitations, I'd love to do super-specific commissions where the client describes his dream in detail and I try to make it real. You think it'd be worth it under these conditions?
>>528264
If you mean doing it as a hobby rather than a career then why wouldn't you? It's extra cash in your pocket.
I find it very interesting that you'd do celebrities. Got any example lewd work of any kind?
>>528273
No, sorry, I haven't published any lewds yet, only clean stuff and I obviously cannot link to that.
Yeah, I see no prob with (adult) celebs. I think most artists shy away from that maybe because resemblance is a bitch. imho it's doable with a bit of patience and good reference.
>>528285
>No, sorry, I haven't published any lewds yet, only clean stuff and I obviously cannot link to that.
That's something you'll have to build up, then.
Do some requests in the Drawthread etc., for example, or post some examples here. I can't really commeent on the "worth" of being a lewd artist though because I'm just someone who commissions and watches this thread for new artists.
Would love to see your take on a celebrity, though! Haven't found a good artist for that, yet.
+ $3 per extra character
+ $3 NSFW
*"detailed" doesn't show up well here because it is so small. It would have better eye shimmer and hair.
The more detail added extra, up by $2. Eg. draw a snake with every friggin' scale: about $15.
It is if it's all one image it's the flat rate, otherwise it's per image, though I take 25% off the total when it's all in one bundle.
Example shown is pony but I do A LOT more; they're just easy to draw on the fly.
Find me on DA: WolfyjacRedDelicious.
>>528378
I would think you need a portfolio that isn't just MLP (and MLP transformed humans).
Your image shows that your coloring's great but the design's so simple, 2D and non-human that I think it would be hard to get commissions.
Why not draw some of the more common Drawthread characters instead?
Does anyone know/can anyone colour/shade like this? It's unrealistic of me to hire Ben Dunn.
>>528422
Try Kaminitro/Modeseven once his commissions open up.
>>528401
That image is rather old. I'll probably be making a new one in a couple of months.
>>523685
thanks for liking my work.
Not sure if it's appropriate to drop this question here, but...
Commissioners, how do you receive money? I assume most artists use paypal, but how do you avoid the fee they charge?
>>528761
hmm, since I've started using invoices what I mostly do is calculate the full price of the drawing and use this fee calculator http://thefeecalculator.com/ to determine what I have to charge on the invoice so I don't lose anything to the paypal fee.
>>528796
Hey, that's super nifty! Are your commissioners usually fine with paying the extra few cents?
>>528813
Yes, after I tell them the full price of the drawing(which includes fee coverage) I explain to my client that the extra few cents are meant to cover paypal's fee.
Looking for an artist that would be fine with using myself as a reference for a sequence where I gain a ton of fat and muscle.
>>528818
Awesome! Thanks. I only recently started taking commissions and I was sorta disappointed that paypal takes such a large fee.
>>528867
Yeah. You can find my stuff over on HF:
http://www.hentai-foundry.com/user/oreog/profile
Working on getting together an 18+ price sheet.
speaking of hentai foundry, can i just give a little rant about that site, HF is a really confusing site when it comes to approving their submission that i've gotten super stressed about posting stuff there.
not only does it take 3+ days to get stuff approved there. they'd just unapprove stuff one day and then just re-approve the same images the next. (i had to switch accounts for privacy
reasons)
when i was reuploading my previously accepted artworks to the site, they all just got rejected instantly for "not reaching the standards of the site". didn't you just approve these pics last week?
ugh, anyways, here's a recent commission i did recently for a client.
>>529761
Different mods, different standards? They definitely show favoritism. When I was uploading furry stuff, I never got on the auto approval list. But when I switched to humanoids, it took only 2 pics to get auto approval.
>>529773
does that mean i just have to catch the more lenient mods then, man thats just stressful considering it takes 3+ days to get stuff approved unless you're on auto approve
man i'd totally give up on that site if only not the fact that a lot of potential commissioners frequent that site. pros outweigh the cons.
>>529761
>>529824
Holy fudge nuggets, They're still doing that after all these years? o_O
I actually started off a few years back trying to upload through HF, but they kept rejecting my stuff that it was so demotivating that I kinda stopped drawing for a long time...
And then a furry dude suggested Fur Affinity because they were pretty open to non-furry art.
I kinda noticed that one period of time where there were more Futa art that got accepted/uploaded in HF than regular art... Some standards...
got a blog where I keep my commission stories posted (googling Excitin' Fightin finds it easy enough, under my email with the outdated name). I mostly do wrestling and catfight stories of various degrees, since that's kind of my thing, but dabbled in others
tend to run for $50 and up for a basic 10 page story delivered in about a month, upping it for length, content I may not like, multiple characters, deadlines, and so on. if we agree on a price, I write up 2 or 3 pages to offer, and if they pass, I expect the payment before I continue. it used to be just how I did things, then someone screwed me over recently with "I promise I'll pay soon" and now it's just me covering my ass because apparently I'm in a busy season (can get up to 6 or so at a time)
I write for fun and various levels of legitimacy, and one day on /v/ they offered free copies of Left 4 Dead "if you earned them." I offered to write a short story of their choosing
minutes later, I get a Steam message that instantly sends me the game when I say I haven't received it yet, and he asks for a sadomasochistic, male-impregnating threesome between the legendary bird pokemon
I showed my gf and brother, laughed, needed a drink, and decided fuck it. honor-bound
pic related because it was a manga-parody webcomic a friend and I got hired an artist for that crashed when he couldn't afford to anymore
If anybody knows who drew this and if they take commissions, please let me know.
HF has problems, but its where the most artists are and where I've found the most luck. I refuse to paysite and am honestly starting to hate hentai so I avoid /h/ heavy sites like the plague.
So to possible artists, before you write HF off just remember that people may not want to have to track down your particular tumblr to get to your comms
>>529916
You've got yourself a client, mate.
I'll get in touch with you shortly.
>>529931
pretty much why i continue to use my HF, tumblr isn't the best for getting commissions as much as HF. i just wish the mods were more consistent with their approval process there.
>>529824
I actually sorta like it. Granted, the approval guidelines are indeed stressful and the bias is ridiculous. But I like having that quality control. It was impossible for me to get any views on other sites. Between HF and FA, I'm not sure where else to post porn.
>>530189
>I'm not sure where else to post porn.
Slowly building a follower base on Tumblr and chatting with them has been the best for me.
>>530192
I'm not even entirely sure how to work tumblr, much less how to build a follower base. I'm lucky if one of my pieces gets 2-3 notes. Any other tips?
Pic as sample, I guess.
>>530202
Draw Steven Universe or other pictures of shows with a million fans. Or shows with a very thirsty niche.
>>530202
Tumblr likes pics with brighter color palette's, animations, comics, popular or relevant things, thick girls and femboys. It also helps if your art has appeal or you have a good grasp of anatomy.
My most popular drawings there have been Undertale /ss/ femdom related.
>>530319
Drawings with penetration also tend to get more notes if that's what you're after.
>>530319
You're not kidding about the Undertale bit... I posted an Undertale picture recently and I got about 10x the attention that anything else I post gets.
Speaking of Steven Universe, it's about to restart in 2 weeks, and has another three seasons planned. So, food for thought, as hype train is arriving to crazy town.
On the downside, I must caution you: don't get mad with SJW's. Never let them see you react. They can go crazy, and even ballistic if you draw their waifu offmodel, and have been known to stalk people for their entire Tumblr histroy, picking every little detail apart while mumbling how much you need to become taller. Case in point, Zamii.
But honestly, draw what you like. That way you don't dread it like a job.
>>530473
>They can go crazy, and even ballistic if you draw their waifu offmodel
No kidding. I once drew Peridot as a femboy for a friend of mine to use in rp. One day he kept getting bombarded with private messages about how he's warping or removing sexual/gender minority characters.
Just finished a commission. Thought I'd share it here aswell.
>>530757
Is there a version without a dick?
>>530473
Oh, I did a couple of things for the /sug/ thread in /trash/ for fun. Just posting this one because it's the best quality.
>>529946
I wont deny HF has its problems. However there is something to be said for ease of access and familiarity. The major problem I've run into as a general user is artists using HF as free add space for their shit-sucking patron shills
>>530473
Drawfag here, the reason I don't use Tumblr is that I'd get bored and draw troll art for all the sweet sweet XXXL-shirt-rending butthurt it would generate.
>>531834
Wouldn't you already be doing that here?
>>530757
gay/10
>>530940
Didn't make one, sorry.
>>532161
It's best to make alts of stuff like that. It'll actually do more to attract than futa.
>>528441
>once his commissions open up
Man, I've been waiting forever. Besides, I don't think I've ever seen him shade hard like this b4.
>>522254
That picture works perfectly here, dummy dumberson.
Looking for someone who'd be willing to draw some same size vore with pic related.
>>532448
Wow, that nipple should not be up there.
I know there are a few artists that have posted here that they'll draw anything, though. Hopefully one will be by soon.
>>532451
Lol thats not the nipple lmao that's the hand.
Did this commission recently :v
Hey, Friendos!
My commissions are open and as far as I'm concerned, I don't have fixed slots, just longer waiting time.
Here's my information if you're interested!
http://marmalademum.tumblr.com/commissions
Pic related, my most recent work. It's a commission, and goddamn I am in love with those balls. Heh.
>>532518
Nice work, but be careful... furry stuff will likely get you banned here. You might want to post that in the commissions thread on /trash/ instead.
>>532518
>goddamn I am in love with those balls. Heh.
Creepy nigga
>>532448
I'm always looking for new commissions now that some of my bigger ones are winding down.
>>532695
Well, more precisely, I loved drawing them.
Don't you ever feel that way? Ever watch videos of satisfying things? Kind of feels like that.
>>532505
Nice. Do you have a Tumblr or some other site? And do you have comission info?
I'm just waiting on the client to look over this piece and see if there is anything they want changed. But I'm pretty happy with how this turned out.
>>533447
what the fuck is going on with that crotch?
>>533666
Well, a penis is going in to it, for one thing, Satan.
Everyone getting much work?
>>533753
None from here.
>>533753
Not really, no.
>>533753
There's not a lot of artists that has the style that I'm looking for.
>>532460
I like that guy's style and his prices are very fair, but I just made a request in the draw thread so I'm gonna wait it out there before I try to commission the guy.
>>527035
A few times, but more of a glowing cum/semen. A lot less worrisome once you get the thickness down.
>>533753
i've gotten a few. but the bulk of my commissions really come from hentai foundry. thats literally the best place to get commissions as far as my experience.
>>527055
Protip, if you want full control of the pose.... You commission them, not throw money at their ych. I think the concept of ych is pretty cool once you have more than one spot involved, then you have your characters interacting with random chars and that's kind of past of the fun for some people.
Also, if an artists gets more from a ych, can you really blame them for doing that? I mean we all need to eat too... Unless you're slugbox, all of his ych's end at around $500 and suspiciously enough, the poses are all too similar to other works
>>533752
Try studying what a vagina looks like with something penetrating it and your pic won't look like she's doing anal with a tiny sewed up vagina and no buttcheeks.
>>534190
I'm not the artist, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to point out your post number.
>>534204
Didn't even see that, holy shit.
Guess I'll be looking at satan porn for a while.
>>533352
I've never been that creepy about it. I also draw things that take a bit more effort than curved lines.
>>534252
Shit dude, can I see your stuff?
Post it ;^)
>>534259
I will when I feel like it. You'll notice it by the distinct air of "better than the shit you draw" it has. But, lemme rephrase my earlier post, I'm not going to get excited over easy to draw shit. That being said, you fucked up the ballsack. Looks like a pair of tits strapped to the crotch. Have you ever seen a ballsack? You draw a good pair of tits, bust you sure as hell don't know how to draw balls.
>>534270
All balls look different my friend, just because they look plump instead of saggy and quite round doesn't mean I don't know how to draw balls.
I simply prefer them aesthetically that way.
Not to mention, they are being squished between some mega thick thighs and pressed against the ground.
Perhaps my post seemed a little salty from before, but I legitimately wish to see your art so I can simply improve upon myself by studying your style.
I don't know why you're suddenly so offended by me asking to see your art.
>>533753
I've done a few so far and have maybe three people showing interest at the moment.
>>533753
I've gotten two commissions so far, no idea if they came from this thread or not, though
>>534278
I've never seen two separate ballsacks. I've had the misfortune of staring at them in a good bit of porn. It's normally, as far as I've seen, 2 separate glands sitting in a small bag of skin. What a pair of breasts do to a shirt is more applicable from I've seen. The bigger the glands, the more stretch, the more stretch, the less you see of the valley so to speak.
A lot of your work tends to fall apart in the proportions and at certain angles. Your understanding of facial structure is cursory. That is probably my biggest gripe. At certain angles, like the 3/4th, which is one I'm very familiar with, you fall all to pieces and clearly have no idea what you're up to. Your foreshortening can use some work as well. It'd be nice if there was a bit of variety in your work too. I don't feel like any of the bodies are particularly different from one another, which lends to your adequate work with muscles, but takes away from the average quality. And faces are very much the same. Like with Mei for example, you gave her a much larger chin and smaller cheeks. That's the normal way you draw faces though. I think you should hold back on commissions. There's a distinct difference between work you put time into and work you're trying to get out for the sake of finishing.
I'm not posting my art because whether it helps or hinders you is not my concern and I doubt that is your true aim. You should ALREADY be looking at art leagues above you. I've personally got folders full of shit I want to get good enough to draw. Tell you what though, gimme a subject, if it's decent I'll draw it and you can pick apart my piece.
>>534332
Thanks for the critique, I'm working on improving and doing studies recently so it helps a lot.
As for your subject, try tentacle porn. I'd like to see how you'd make the figure being manipulated by the tentacles work against gravity.
Glhf
Man, I have wasted so much money on these threads. Wonder what level of prostitute I could have gotten instead.
>>534638
I guarantee you will never catch an STI from these threads. It's a safe day to come inside, sempai!
Anyone ever commissioned stories? Who did you use and what was the theme?
Also, has anyone ever commissioned pictures to go along with a story?
One of my recent work~
My commission info is here if interested:
sucre-boo.tumblr.com/commission
>>534688
Commissioned a story from Dia Dante. It was supposed to accompany a picture I had gotten commissioned a while ago. Charged, like 2 cents a word and it was just what I wanted.
I'd post, but it isn't /aco/ appropriate.
>>534638
I Also have pumped cash into artists found on here. I don't mind though, in the time its taken to get several images I could of been turned down by a name-brand pornographer
>>535370
Ooooh I'm keeping it up allright -chuckle-
>>536068
>>534638
Yeah I could have gotten a night of IRL depravity for all the money I've spent on artists in this thread as well as the OC thread who's art captured my interest. But the stuff I commission gets my dick harder than all that so its a wash.
>>536110
If escorts were willing to cosplay, I'd save quite a bit of money for that.
^ business idea, for anyone wealthy.
sup, it's way too early for me to make one of them shiny commission sheets, but since I got some mail I quickly put together my com info here:
http://salmonsprus.tumblr.com/commissions
what do you think? Reasonable?
>>536281
Looks good. At least you're not charging 50 bucks for a sketch.
Who does the cheapest, acceptable quality comics?
>>536405
I can do that. I've drawn comics before. We can arrange something in terms of price. Hit me up [email protected]
>>536477
Contacted.
Still very open to suggestions and the more the better. Wouldn't be the first time I've commissioned a few artists at once and some are better suited for some projects than others.
how many can i charge for this?
i mean, for a piece like the right sketch with the colors of the left.
>>536555
I'd like to see some more examples.
>>532518
I hit you up with a commission by email BTW
Mistakes were made, I need to think through the prices of added chars/backgrounds more carefully next time
>>537406
sorry dude
Hit me at [email protected]
One character with no color is $20, color+shading is $35, extra character is $15 + $15 with color+shading.
No loli/shota though. Sorry.
I want to buy some new vidya so commission me if you want to.
>>522270
Here is how it works. You are artist, you need money. You charge money to work. You get hired and are paid money for your work. You do not get to decide your work. More money, means more work, so limiting yourself past gross pedo shit really limits your audience. If someone wants a fucking diaper wearing furry with huge growing tits drawn, then you draw the damn thing and get it over with.
Starving artist is right, if these people charge for so many things outside of their comfort zones they'll never have a good start. Enjoy your art career!
http://pastebin.com/y04XR8AY
I've never seen this thread before! So here's my details in a handy dandy pastebin. I check my sites daily so it's pretty easy to get a hold of me.
Recently I've just been getting MLP related requests and commissions and that's pretty boring. I like to do all sorts of things.
There are a few things I don't care for fetish-wise, but if the price is right I'll pretty much draw anything. Doesn't mean I'd put my name on it or acknowledge I did it, but I'd draw it.
>>537753
>won't draw diapers or flurries
>YOU'LL NEVER BE A REAL AH-TIST MY DEAR
>>537805
He's kind of right if you need the cash.
>>537760
I'd commission from you if you had an email to contact you at, fuck doing things through websites.
>>537753
well first of all, i really dont need the money all that much. its more of a fun side-hobby i can earn extra spending cash with. now if i really did need the money i would probly consider doing them but for now i'd rather not.
second, i only excluded the ones i feel uncomfortable drawing, no kinkshaming or anything but you don't expect an artist to draw what they don't like to draw. go find an artist that likes that kind of stuff, chances are they'll draw it better than the person uncomfortable with it. regardless of skill level.
>>537805
i never said i don't draw furries
>>537868
>>537883
Strike that it's actually [email protected]
I can't even remember my own email. Geez.
>>537878
Nah, he said 'flurries'. He wants an erotic snowstorm, my friend.
>>536281
wtf
why in the fuck is chromatic aberration so expensive?
>>538049
Zero wdj is someone I've been working with lately. If you don't mind waiting a bit extra sometimes, he does pretty good work. Personally I haven't commissioned comics from him but the scenario collages he's done for me are very close to that.
He goes by wdj at paheal if you want to check his work.
>have niche fetish, nothing disgusting or divisive, just uncommon and kooky, not a large audience
>reach out to artists for commissions
>"never done that but sounds good, I'll have a sketch to you in a week"
>don't hear back for weeks, artists don't respond to emails
>has happened every time
Wish I was just into futa or something. Then people wouldn't just quit because they don't get it.
>>538048
J/k, just making fun of the abuse of CA as a cure-all for shitty art. I mean, if you really want it I'll do it for free.
>>538222
Just describe the kink in question. Maybe we can guess what drives artists away. Perhaps there's nothing wrong with it in particular and you simply met shitty people.
>>538222
Odd, what's the fetish?
>>538222
My weird fetish is intelligence drain but I don't know how to really convey that so I've never commissioned it.
>>538298
A sequence of panels where a character gets dumber
>>538302
I think the problem is it needs too much context to get it across in a few panels.
Might need a writer and artist combo for it.
>>538245
>>538227
A bit nervous to describe it desu, I really want this one I have out to work out and if I describe it the artist will def know it's me. I like the artist a lot, just haven't heard back in over a month. They said they were busy so it could take "days", I'm just worried it's gonna turn out like the rest. I'll contact them and if they're not interested anymore, I'll contact whoever wants to take a shot at it. Link me to your comm sheets.
>>538245
Ah. Now I see it. Also, since when does "t b h" with no spaces get changed to desu. That's hilarious.
>>538313
I am dying to know what it is. The artist disappeared for over a month and you're afraid of upsetting them.
Please post it here.
>>538305
Or you could write the dialogue yourself at least. At least a client of mine does that.
>>538338
It's not that I'm "afraid" of upsetting them, I just haven't seen a person that can draw as many styles as well as they can, and if I knew they were gonna work on this piece at some point, I'd be down to wait longer. I really want it to be them, I think they could take it in a good direction. I'll reach out and see if they're still interested. If not, I'll post.
>>538361
But just because you get some more artists here, doesn't mean you won't still commission him.
It just means you have more names for the future if he doesn't turn up again.
So please, just post it here.
>>538363
Fine. Pic related.
>>538398
Vanilla as fuck, man. I could totally do that.
>>538398
Oh, that's not that crazy. In fact, Cannon from these threads has examples of images like that.
I find it weird that you've had such trouble getting artists, actually.
Good luck, anon.
>>538403
Yeah never said it wasn't vanilla or couldn't be done! Just that 90% of people I commission for it fall off.
>>538405
Guess who commissioned them? One of two I've commissioned that have come through.
>>538398
So just stretchy necks, or stretchy women/superhroines in general?
>>538417
Latter. It might have to do with the intricacy of what I want them doing. The only ones I've ever had finished have been really easy things.
>>536281
prices are good, highly approve of Ramona Flowers being nude. I'll keep you in mind
>>537753
No, here's how it works. It's his hobby and he WANTS money. Nobody does this for a fucking living! I assume in most of the civilized world min wage is about 10 bucks an hour, right? That means flipping burgers, digging ditches or even going to a wal-mart parking lot with mexicans is more profitable if it takes him more than 3 hours to finish a doodle. And you better believe it takes more than 3 hours to make a colour drawing.
No one is obligated to do what you want, you fucking autist.
Not to mention, I want to comission furry, scat or guro artists less, because it makes me like their art less! It pigeonholes them to that sick weird fanbase, as anyone more normie is revolted. Cause when I view their gallery and it looks like shit sycophants jerk off to, it's a turn-off.
>>538445
^^^^ hell yeah. Maybe dude is just upset cause somebody turned down his gross/creepy ass fetish too many times.

Commission info: http://www.hentai-foundry.com/user/Yuffa/blogs/8679/Commission-Info
>>538420
Well, it's possible that some of the artists you've dealt with feel somewhat caged by a high level of intricacy... sometimes a commissioner that gives too many specifics can cause an artist to balk. Some artists are more prone to this than others. Keep trying!
>>538520
Yeah I worry that that's it too, but also I've been told other times they won't do it for specific reasons, changed their mind after going radio silent.
>>538398
Seems pretty vanilla. I'd have no problem. If you got a really concrete idea though it that'd just need some price discussion to solve.
I tend to do my commissions as soon as I get them. I hate keeping anyone waiting.

Comm sheet?
>>539064
Alright, I'm not the guy you were talking to but I'll hit you up in the near future.
>>539064
artists plz namefag to save the trouble of learning who they are. It removes clutter.
>>539094
(Agreed)
At the very least, link to your commission sheet or the post where you uploaded it so as to not have people have to ask. Nobody knows who you are if you're anonymous, no matter how recently you posted.
>>539100
Yes but it took you several posts, where if someone saw you say "I'll do it" they could just look at your name and search the thread.
Let's just drop this topic and add to the sticky "artists namefag" because it actually matters who you're talking to in that regard.
>>538403
What's your name/page?
To artists,
How okay is it to release art I commissioned and you haven't posted it anywhere?
>>539457
Don't link it. If I don't post it on my site I don't want people thinking that's what I'm down for. Like, if I was a desperate enough of a loser to draw futa garbage I'd insist that you forget I exist after I draw it.
>>539464
I disagree. After I've paid for something its Mine. If, as an artist you're that concerned with how certain content makes you look then you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.
Also on another topic, if anybody else has noticed rainbowflyer seems to be down indefinitely according to her tumblr. It's a shame and now I need a second cheep artist
>>539496
I said don't link it. Posting it would be fine. My major qualm about that sort of thing is that it's a deterrent for a larger group of people and the people that it'd attract would still be included without the fetish.
>>539496
it's perfectly legitimate for you to post it / link it, but it would be really impolite to. At the very least you're discouraging the artist you just commissioned from ever drawing that kind of content again, which I don't think is the smartest move.
>>539457
Completely fine. As far as I'm concerned you own it.
>>539457
Also if it's something really out there, I'd still let you post it but you wouldn't have to put my name or link to me.
>>539628
"Post" means to upload the image not necessarily with any identifiers.
"Link" means to specifically showcase who the artist is and/or showing their website and/or how to contact said artist.
>>539631
ah, yeah that makes some more sense. I still don't wholly approve and stand by my "don't take on anything you're ashamed to set your name on" stance, but the clarification helps
>>539457
I would ask them
Typically if I don't post it it's because I don't want more commissions of that type. Furry etc
But it's cool for them to post it, because it doesn't go directly on my blog
>>539628
Yeah I think it's cool for you to post it anywhere you feel like. If you want to link it back to the artist that's fine too unless it's a specific thing.
No one wants to get pigeon holed into being "that guy."
I just got done with a few of the commissions I got from the last thread and I'm ready for more! I decided to put together a basic price guide and examples of what they can get you. I have no limitations and I'm willing to draw absolutely anything for near any price (though quality is dependent on price) If anyone else is interested feel free to contact me at [email protected]
