/ic/, is there any market at all for non-sexual character based commissions?
I'm in a bit of a deadlock right now because there is nowhere in town I can get a job (you can't get a job without experience but can't get experience without a job) and am thinking of starting to do commissions. Problem is I'm still living with my parents, who are rather prudish, abd they monitor my bank account, and sexy (not always porn) art seems to be the only thing that sells. If I draw "hot" women I'm sexist, if I draw "hot" men I'm gay, either way I'm a perv. [spoiler]which is true tho...[/spoiler] do people pay for people to draw characters that don't satisfy their fetish cravings? Or am I fucked?

Yes there is, especially for no-talent writers on Tumblr, but you should be open to tasteful nudes. Write up a commission sheet that specifies your dos and donts, as well as prices, and shop it around.

I think they'd be concerned that people would be jerking it even to "tasteful" nudes. I'm worried they'll think I'm a failure if I "resorted" to drawing teh secks.

There's always the option of pandering to a fetish that you don't actually have but wouldn't mind drawing
For instance, there's a talented *furry* artist on tumblr named buizelmaniac who keeps mostly sfw, but draws a buff skyscraper-sized buizel character which made him popular with macrofags even though he's not gay or into giants, and makes real bank on commissions

How about NO

How do I know what fetish will make me rich anon? And how do I go about making people find me?
>>2297455
How the hell do they know what you're drawing?

I live in a similar situation OP, but I have taken up doing furry porn for money. I'm just sick of it, I'm thinking of promoting myself to do work as a comic artist for just random fucks on the internet. I'm not sure where to look on doing that, DA and Tumblr are shitter central, and FA axed the fucking forums a few months ago.

Like I said they monitor my bank account and would want to know where the cash is coming from, I wouldn't have any excuse other than it being smutcash

Just sa y they are from commissions. Dont tell them bout the nudes. You could even show them a few ones. (Not the nude ones)
