Do you think it's worth doing lewd loli commissions to pay the bills?
I do NSFW stuff that falls into the "normal" range, and I do get a few commissions a month but I'm at the point where I feel like I can't afford to say no to someone who wants a loli piece. I don't have anything against loli personally I'm just concerned about whether or not it could come back and haunt me in the future. I'm leaning towards it not being worth it, but maybe I'm overly paranoid.

All you have to do is call it a 400 year old succubus/demon/vampire whatever and remember loli is a body type not an age group :^)
>>2489426
That doesn't even look like a loli. Just a thin 18 year old girl that's been shift scaled down in size.
Like the body is loli, but the face looks twenty-thirty. Too sleek and sophisticated.
>>2489426
how exactly do you get commisioned do you get contacted in email by people asking to draw you shit? Do they even pay in advance or what? What if you draw them there shit and they dont pay?
>>2489426
they're fucking drawings not children who cares.
Hands where I can see them
>>2489437
I don't but most regular people do.
Be careful because it's literally illegal in some places.
Personally, I'd draw pretty much anything if a commissioner asked me to, because I care about the craft a lot more than the subject matter, but I wouldn't do anything that could be perceived as CP, just because I don't want to get arrested crossing the border with Canada or something.
>>2489426
nah, you shouldn't draw anything you don't feel passionate about.
/ic/ will tell you MUST grind over 9000 hours on perspective, landscape, still lifes or whatever, but doing only that will make you unhappy, and your art bland and soulless.
also, lolis are great, why don't you like them? are you gay?
>>2489496
you may be happy if you dont do those 9000 hours, just don't expect other people to care about your art when it looks amateur and shitty
choosing a subject matter once your skills are proficient is one thing but neglecting practice because its not fun is another
AFAIK they can ban you out of paypal and apparently being out of paypal is death sentence to many commissioners.
care to show work? merely personal interest. i want to know exactly how good you have to be to get monthly comissions. also what is your pricing?
I'd just check to make sure it's legal where the commissioner is. (It's legal everywhere in the u.s. btw)
Even if it's legal where you are, supplying it to people where it is illegal can still land you in deep shit.

Why not just make porn?
>>2489590
Don't you get fucked by patreon if you draw loli shit too?
>>2489428
You're brilliant. You should be a science man
>>2489426
who gives a fuck. check your countries laws and make sure the client is trustworthy. then just do it. ask to be paid a bit more for the questionable nature of it.
>>2489426
unless you really really like drawing lolis id say its not worth the risk.
I can hardly believe that in some countries you legally can't draw certain things.

Welcome to europe m8. A magical place where women get fined for defending themselves from rapists because even mace is illegal. Where the official advice for women facing rapists is to hold up a hand and say "stop", because all means of self-defense are illegal. Where you get sent to jail for saying anything negative about islam or refugees that are flooding your country.
>>2490354
Swedish I'm gonna guess.
>>2489496
Not him but because muscle girls and Christmas cakes are my fetish.
>>2490361
It's like all of Europe, m8
And what this anon is specifically talking about happened in Germany.
If you're in the U.S. I see artists who are publicly hated draw underage and never get in trouble for it (as far as the law goes)
>>2490572
Things like this always makes me wonder why europeans always try to make fun of america for their shit.
I mean we got our problems, but holy shit. The more I hear about Europe the more I think we need to reset humanity.
Like people have said if you are in Europe don't bother. It's not worth risking whatever retroactive law they will pass.
>>2489426
Just get good with technology.
If you even put the bare minimum of effort into hiding your trace on the Internet, no one will bother going after you until you become huge.
Or just get some balls and move to Japan, Russia or one of the US states that doesn't ban it
>>2494529
>Just get good with technology.
elaborate? questionable stuff pays, that's why i ask...
>>2494562
Don't do anything illegal in your country.
Obide by laws or just move to a different country.

Just draw fetish shit with no holds barred. You will get plenty of people interested since a lot of the fetish artists refuse things like guro, scat, kids etc
It's just called the Petite body type, I know A lot of Asian/Hispanic girls who are small and thin. So when people commission "loli" they just use the word Petite instead.

If someone wants to make some bitcoin by doing highly graphic loli guro in a free country... I would suggest to distance yourself as far as possible from your name.
>>2490354
the first 2 sentences sound like feminist drivel
>>2494667
Sound like, and are. But they are also true.
Source: I'm a eurofag.
why the actual fuck would loli be illegal in the first place? is the entire reason cp is illegal because some kid is actually being exploited? whos getting harmed by some little shit that doesnt even exist getting drawn naked?
Is pixiv a good place for posting loli content, or are there any better options for a western audience? I already have a page on Hentai Foundry.
>>2490572
No its not. I bet you are one of those murricans who think Europe is one country.

The idea, despite it being proven false, is that by seeing actions done in fiction people think it's okay to do in reality.
>>2494931
Weird how that doesn't apply to movies and tv-series where people are being killed left to right then.
>>2494859
it sexualises children
>>2490354
Finland detected. Gb2school, Jonne.
>>2494943
Well in parts because
1. it has been proven false and that proof is used in those circumstances because
1.1. they have good lawyers
1.2 its already prevalent and it costs far too much to ban
2. killing is a pretty hard line between good and bad, you don't look at something killing someone else and think "yeah that must feel good, I'd like to try that in reality" while plenty of people see sex and want to do more of it, because there's little perceived damage.
2.1. even in movies where there's lots of death, the "good guys" usually try to do the least amount of killing as possible.

Making your own e-hentai (and knowing how to use exhentai) galleries is also helpful
Post your work to boorus too

no need to do such mental acrobatics to justify censoring art, in /ic/ of all places.
cp/loli legal status is just an historical fluke, which will be laughted at in a couple of centuries, just as the hays code, the 7 words you can't say on television, or the ban on the representation of muhammad (phhn)
>>2495851
>implying anyone is trying to justify it
we're just telling you the facts.
I'm a huge supporter of freedom of speech and expression, but a large majority of the world is not, and being able to understand them in an invaluable skill. If you had taken a few seconds to actually read my posts you'd of known that.
>>2495915
nah, those posts sound actually preachy and far-reaching for a moral justification. i don't blame you: some people are hardwired for believe the conservative bullshit
>>2490572
you know german sweden and france are just 3 countries?
you know like half of europe is slavs right?
>>2489426
I see loli artists that use the disclaimer "ALL CHARACTERS PRESENTED IN THESE WORKS ARE 18 YEARS OLD OR OLDER" on their blogs.
Just bullshit and say they're older than they actually are; no one is going to try and prove you wrong.
