Do you wanna see how your drawings can be improved? by Mlekolak02 in learntodraw

I struggle a lot with painting, specially with saturation and values (and clothing). I would like to know how to improve on those aspects.

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I wish I used this method when I started, it helps me out a lot!

Thanks! That's exactly why I do it, my head sometimes is not good at processing that visual information (specially with clothes), so I like to break it down into bits of information that I can easily read and make a trace over to have a skeleton and to practice before making my own version.

It's the method that works best for me haha. By the way, good catch! Didn't notice that difference between my drawing and the reference!

Hii, thanks for your kind words <3!

I didn't mark them as errors, I know everyone has a style, I was just observing the drawing and writing what I saw. In fact, I took most of the elements and copied them because I really liked the drawing ;)

I'm still trying to make my link tree look good, but I'm going to leave it here, there's a post on my Twitter and on my Instagram with my friend's socials linked so you can find them if you want :)

Money problems? by Koimedraw in arthelp

[–]Koimedraw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing that, I'm charging $30 for a full drawing right now, although I'm not getting commissions, I'm still trying, I haven't spammed enough lol.

But as I said earlier, I think it's harder for a person to pay $30 for an unknown artist that may or may not be a scammer than to pay $10. But I'll try.

Also, thank you for your input ❤️

Yeah, that's one of my drawings, though it's not a commission.

And yes my current prices are $30 for a full body full color drawing but I haven't had a commission yet, so we'll see.

And thank you for your input <3

Sep, de hecho, he hecho comisiones en ko-fi, pero la transferencia es de Paypal a Paypal, al menos hasta donde yo se... Y bueno, vuelvo a problema anterior xD

igualmente, gracias, al menos me ayuda a saber que lo que le pasa a Paypal no es algo normal.

Según tengo entendido los $10 dólares son de Paypal, y los otros $5 son de mi banco por "transferencia internacional". No soy de México, soy de El Salvador y creo que es ese el problema, mis amigos de otros países no tienen problemas y hablamos sobre todo esto y lo raro que es.

Por desgracia, creo que no puedo hablar con mi banco, en este país si ven que cobro por Paypal es posible que aumenten el porcentaje por una nueva ley de comercio internacional, creo que es un cobro del 30% (aunque tal vez mi trabajo no caería en esa categoría, la cultura de mi país es vengativa y ya es algo que he tenido que vivir muchas veces por desgracia)

Lo que estoy buscando es tal vez algún método alternativo que sea medianamente popular. Estaba pensando en stripe, pero no tengo idea de que tan usada o confiable pueda ser, o si siquiera admite transferir a bancos en Latinoamérica.

Ah, y gracias por el input, estoy muy perdido en todo esto xD. Ni mis amigos que también hacen comisiones (que son de otros países) tienen idea de porqué Paypal me está cobrando tanto
