anyone have any experience selling on gumroad? wanted to give it a shot but i just noticed they charge 10$ a month... i thought they just take a bit out of every sale you make. 10$ a month is a bit of a NOTHANKSLOL tho.
>$10
>$.32 a day
Are you serious?
Did you know Steam takes a 30% of all revenues from games sold on its platform? Quit cryin' bitch nigga, or make your own site.

I think their fee was previously 5% + $0.25 (per transaction), and now it's 10$ and then 3.5% + $0.30.
> to compare, Paypal is 2.9% of the transaction + $0.30
Are you saying you don't expect to sell for at least 10$ a month? I wouldn't bother to sell anything, I wouldn't survive even in India.
Just make a Heaven&Hell Kickstarter, use the money to print books, then sell them on Amazon instead of shipping them to the backers.
How did they do self portraits before mirrors?
>>2561279
they would put water or glass over a shiny polished piece of metal and look into it.

>Welcome to NYCC 2016'S Artist Alley
Holy shit dudes. After applying for so many years I finally got in. I have never done an artist alley before and if I do this, I have no idea how to prepare for this.
What sells at an Artist Artist? Especially at one like New York Comic Con? Should I focus on my own original stories/comics or fanart?
I also work full-time so I'd have to take some days off to be there for the full weekend right? And if I'm there the whole weekend, what do about setting everything up? Do I have to set up my display and artwork every day and then take everything home at the end of the day or do I just leave it there?
I ask because I live an hour and a half from the convention so I don't like the idea of carrying everything back and forth.
Has anyone had experience with Artist Alleys?
>>2561605
why'd you have to choose such a huge convention for your first one? if your stuff is still shit, you're going get buried in the massive competition and probably not even get what you paid back. keep in mind artists fly from across the country to sell at NYCC
>>2561615
>stuff is still shit
If OP was shit, why would NYCC approve? They usually only allow pros that are already published so that's surprised that they even accepted him if he's shit.
/cgl/ usually has an artist alley thread, maybe go check over there.
do think you have to first suffer to make good art?
Man cannot make without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor.
>>2560102
You will suffer no matter what you do but it's something you have to take in order to achieve greatness in your craft.
At least that's what the fortune cookie told me.
it's hard for me to imagine artists like bob ross or iain mccaig ever suffered for their art when you listen to them speak about it
Is there someone like bob ross but for darwing?
There's a specific style I really want to try and draw but I have no idea where to start and couldn't find anything in the sticky. I call it "implied detail", where you can draw these massive towers or armies and you can see where everything would be very complex and littered with detail, but when you zoom in on the pic it's just almost random assorted lines and shading, seeing it as a whole piece however seems to give you the illusion of detail. I see it mostly in dark fantasy, I'll post some pics for examples.
In this picture, you can see that there is a massive army of orcs and it feels like you can make out their shapes and what they would look like, however they are just a bunch of lines upon closer inspection
This is someone's work I saved from here, everything looks super detailed with the picture as a whole, but when you look close at any one part it loses that detail and appears as blotches of muddy color and lines(this isn't bashing, I like the style.)
>>2561333
There's no trick to this, it's just effective understanding of how to simplify complex things to their basic essence. Working zoomed out will help so you don't get too caught up in it.
This one interests me quite a bit as it uses barely any color yet seems so vibrant. I have no clue to what the process is for drawing something like this. Do they sketch out random rock like shapes, fill in dark colors and slowly highlight to what feelS right? I need a method to this madness
hey /ic/, haven't been here in quite a while but i've been struggling to finish this painting so i was wondering if you guys had any ideas.
any critiques at all are welcome to me, but the bottom portion is the bit that needs finished obviously. i was thinking something spacey but idk, any thoughts?
>>2561126
damn didn't realize the picture was flipped, here's a straight pic lol
>>2561126
fairly nice, colors are a bit over saturated for my taste, and the blue is a little intense based on the surrounding orange clouds. Also can't tell if it's the photo or not but the horizon doesn't seem straight.
>>2561140
yeah i still need to fix the horizon i'm gonna wait til all the oil is dry first, but ya i wanted some stronger colors for the mood of this piece. thanks tho!
How do I into composition?
I recently started a major illustration project for practice and to test my skills. Posted my progress on /ic/ after many hours and learned that I really lack composition skills needed to do illustrative work.
Just finished my 1st year in fine arts so I have learned the very basics like the golden ratio, guiding lines etc, but where can I learn more advanced composition that would allow me to do thumbnailing practice like in pic related?

This is mostly about storyboarding, but got something about composition also.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbdyjrrJAjDIACjCsjAGFAA is basically only design/composition.
>>2559839
>golden ratio
Literally meme tier. Don't be a retard plz.
