This, that, and commissions

Tue Oct 20, 2009, 7:52 AM
Ok, i'll refresh my animation project in a couple days, thanks for you guys for signing up for voice-acting :D

not many roles, but i'll get to try out some stuff

A question i wanted to ask,i'm thinking of doing commissions for Christmas, if i did commissions, how much would you guys be comfortable to pay?
for a sketch? or a colored piece(includes a less-fine sketch)?

please be honest, i'm not going with the "max profit" ideal, when you sell things, both parties should be happy. hence when i said comfortable. i'd rather sell a little low, and sell a lot, so i get more practice.


i'd love any tips on comissions, how the trade works, what limits to set, things i should state in the commission journal etc etc.

just in case you're wondering, i'm doing this for a few reasons

1, A man once told me, that commissions are a great way to cure laziness, good practice, and you can't really slack off either. plus you get a little treat at the end.

2, i have a few CDs i'd like to buy, if you know Ronald jenkees, i'd like his, and some soundtracks.

3, it's a nice push forward, a real test for me if my stuff are good enough to sell.

if i ever really decide to do them, it'll be like next month, mainly because i have to finish my animation first

PS: i'd like to clear up any art trades, if you did your part, please let me know. most people post an art trade and disappear :P

Art Trades - I'd love to See Liaas and all drawn by other people ^^, if you feel we should be doing one, or just want one, post it here ^^

Well, i would reccomend you do a trade~ rather than request, because there's much much more pressure on me to get it done, it's like Request, minus the slack,

An extract from my art trade journal
Ah, and to those saying, i can't draw, it's crap anyways, i'm not worth it. this is for you. i don't care if your'e a beginner or not, for this, i care about how much you try. don't say my art sucks, it will if you don't practice! i will not say no to an art trade, pretty much except for these reasons

1 I am too busy
2 it's something i will not draw at that time
3 i'm feeling ill
4 i'm up to my neck on art trades and requests

It shows through your works that you did put effort into it. just try hard and i will be happy ne?^^

and, that said, if your'e great and want to trade, i'd be Honored >W<
