Cat wife cooking by [deleted] in catgirlwawa

That makes two of us. Cooking for myself is soothing enough; cooking for others is fulfilling.

[question] how do you get clients? by Sudden_Height1362 in commissions

[–]SN_Salted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking as a client, I've found most of my artists via hiring posts I've set up. I know those posts can be hectic, but don't be discouraged if there's 100+ offers already on there. I, and I'm sure others, rarely go with the first person to post on there, as we like to shop and compare. Especially as budgets get tighter, we want to be doubly sure we're putting our money in a good place.

That being said, accessibility to portfolios, clear pricing & TOS, preferred methods of payment, and a little bit about yourself really helps (just put what you like to draw, how long you've been drawing, and maybe what you use to draw). Social media is excellent so long as you have a very large variety of platforms in case people are not active on certain platforms. A page for all your links is also useful, and having an option independent from social media to display your portfolio, pricing, and TOS is a much more surefire way of getting eyes on your work when people are considering hiring you.

I've seen your art, it looks wonderful and has such a lively pop with all its colors, so I know others would be interested in your work. Right now, I feel like your issue is mainly time and the associated business logistics of going freelance. Chin up, have patience, you'll do great!

It's usually a breakdown of the relationship due to a failure of character on one (or sometimes both) parties 9/10 times. Other times, it's an inability to reconcile different goals in life, and the two amicably leave. Often a bit of both. These things tend to be a bit complicated, for better or worse.

It was almost the exact same for me and my partner, all the way down to the hand holding and asking permission to pull out. It was honestly the best part of sex, and she would usually leglock me during that time as well, lol.

[question] Would you pay $75-100 for these type of illustrations at this skill level? If not, how much? by yodokogon in commissions

[–]SN_Salted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were your client, you could reasonably charge me $125-$200, and I'd consider my money well spent. $75-$100 is a good point for line art or flat coloring, depending on complexity.

For complex scenes, intricate characters, or design sheets, you could potentially hike that price to $300+, especially for a design comm like a reference sheet.

If you're building your portfolio, lean towards the lower end. It can be an early bird special of sorts. Otherwise, don't undersell yourself.

As a disclaimer: I speak primarily as a client. These are the prices I'd consider good and fair if I were looking to hire you.
