georgie Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 so I was jealous my sister has a job now and earns like £20 a night from tips (shes a waitress) and I was talking to my dad like "well the only way I could earn money now was by doing commissions, basically I would have to.. (then I explain how commissions work)" and I was expecting him to be like "lol that's dumb" but he actually really thought I should do it instead of dreaming about doing it!! so I probably will!!! so im gonna spend tomorrow drawing up a sheet showing everything and the prices, and probably getting some example pieces done (because I dont have many drawings with my current art style) so I just wanna ask what people think my prices should be! so right now I wanna do mainly nichelings and the like (cats n' stuff) and might also do some hollow knight stuff. I know im sort of good enough to do commissions (knowing how to draw many different things without having to spend time learning everything so I can get them done in a good amount of time) but I know I still have some learning to do, so im going to take whatever price I have and cut it in half just to a. make up for the fact some might turn out a bit bad and b. make sure a lot of people buy them at first because it's going to be a twitter post and I have like 5 followers that aren't bots or one of you all so the two types im going to do is fullbody and head, like this: the fullbodies would be £8.50, £9 for added shading. they would come with a simple background upon request that would be free because they take like 5 mins lol if a character is a bit more complex, for example a nicheling with a really detailed mask, the prices would be £10 and £10.50 for added shading the heads- well the better word would probably be busts- would cost £5, £5.50 for shading, and complex characters would be £6 and £6.50 for shading. I would also probably do stuff where for a few weeks I would do nicheling fusions (those are very hard and would be like £20 btw) and for another few weeks after that I would do cute couple pictures for £20 too, ect. ect. you get the idea. just little extra deals that come and go and wouldn't be permanent, but might come back in a few months or something. btw an example of how these would look is this mekoko and a dragon tear that's pretty old and bad (and the neck is really wide???) but oh well: so what do you guys think? am I good enough for commissions? should I raise/ lower my prices? 1 1 1
takoyamaaaS Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 Ah My parents wouldn’t let me get one, even though I’d love to theyd say it was a “sCaM”
georgie Posted August 8, 2019 Author Posted August 8, 2019 for another example heres an anameme from an animation I've basically given up on at this point lol. in the commissions it would be her full body without most of her hind legs cut out, btw (this is an animation frame so its a bit messy and the anatomy is really bad o.O) 1

Guest SilverTheNicheling Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 How would we be able to send you money for the commissions?

Magicmoonss Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 Personally I wouldn't set them that high, but if that's what you think they're worth, go ahead.
georgie Posted August 8, 2019 Author Posted August 8, 2019 OK IF YOU WANT TO SEE HOW OTHER PEOPLE PRICE COMMISSIONS, DO NOT JUST TYPE "COMMISSION" INTO THE TWITTER SEARCH BAR YOU GET SOME VERY INTERESTING ART O.O 3

What I don’t like is how it’s always FURRIES when people do stuff like that.. it’s not THE ENTIRE FANDOM who does this! Okay people from now on just call these folks degenerates instead of furries because I’m so friggin tired of that slang.

And I do hate it when people lump all of furries as degenerates. It's pretty awful. And, I believe it was something like 80% of furries that it's actually a fetish for them. The other 20% are kids or people who just like the look of anthropomorphic animals.

I don't think it's that bad that for some furries its a fetish for them. I'd just rather they keep it behind closed doors, but unfortunately some don't. And when they don't sometimes kids can come across it. I believe I was 10 when I first saw some nsfw furry stuff, and I was just googling what a furry was. 1

The fandom really needs to set up some ground rules so even adults can stop posting that kind of art..
