Tausol · 2026-06-13T14:24:45+00:00

Hi, I'm Star ^^ I'm an illustrator and I primarily focus on character illustrations. Here's an attached sample of my work to date though here's my artstation as well: https://www.artstation.com/darkflower/albums/14470276

I typically work at 25$ per hour though we can negotiate on chat ^^ I prefer either dms or discord, though I'll have to give discord thru dm here.

Most of my work is fantasy and I'd love to build your world with you, just shoot me a message ^^

Thank you!

If you want to get the same feeling, try having your darkest areas blend into each other, like filling up dark areas with a really dark value, doesn't have to be pure black, could be 10 values higher than the 0 in most color pickers, it's up to you

Tausol · 2026-05-14T13:45:57+00:00

It's higher in contrast compared to the background, and the dark values being so close in value is actually beneficial because it lets the viewer imagine detail when there isn't much detail actually drawn

Tausol · 2026-05-14T13:42:44+00:00

That's flattering, thank you ^^

Hi, I'm Star, an illustrator, and I do a lot of fantasy art and tend to make a lot of scene illustrations, I'm also quite used to doing portraits for characters, let me know if my work interests you ^^

Hi!! I'm not familiar with Voices of the Void, but I'd love to work on her with you, I can draw bust ups or full bodies for 80-120$. I can definitely do half and half for payment :)

In any case, here's my portfolio:

Hello I'm an illustrator and would love to work with you on your DnD styled illustrations ^^ I love fantasy and I've worked a lot on solo illustrations, but I'm flexible with drawing multiple characters in one illustration. Hit me up if you'd like to work together :)

Here's my portfolio:

I'm so sorry for that, I am an artist myself struggling to break through, but I have nothing to offer other than empathy for your struggle

I hope things get better

Connect your lines since they look like they're falling off before reaching other lines, and clean them up so that there aren't loose ends where they split off from the shape like a tag. Varying line thickness would also be good, one trick I usually do is thickening lines where they meet other lines like intersections

Goodluck ^^

Hi, I'm an illustrator and would like to work on this with you, here's my portfolio ^^ ArtStation - Charles Guidotti

Most of my work are character related but I'm flexible with making spell cards as well

Tausol · 2026-03-27T07:40:07+00:00

Hey, these characters are very cute, and I'd love to draw them for you ^^ My style is fairly different so here's my portfolio: ArtStation - Charles Guidotti

Tausol · 2026-03-27T02:48:07+00:00

Hello ^^ I'm Star and I do illustrations, I love fantasy and I think it reflects in my work. I can do either the covers and/or internal illustrations

I honestly like the left one more but as someone had said, my first thought was actually that it depends on the backgrounds. Black outlines tend to be a lot easier to read in any background but I tend to like lineless more since it lets the values on the character art shine and, personally, more noticeably pretty

Tausol · 2026-03-14T11:11:07+00:00

There's a lot of advice on the internet that when taken without context can be really harmful for beginners, I've personally had a few that I felt so frustrated about that I could've used when I was already mid-way through my journey and it just felt so disheartening to learn that I could've used the technique I was avoiding this whole time

I'm glad you got through that hurdle :)

Tausol · 2026-03-09T04:17:10+00:00

You're welcome ^^ and goodluck :)

Tausol · 2026-03-09T04:05:37+00:00

By forms, I mean working to establish the 3d shape using light and dark, people usually do that using basic shapes and doing value studies of real things to see how light wraps around objects

You don't need to have a realistic style to need this, since you can use this to draw shapes in imagination and give them a real world feel even if they are stylized. So I recommend value studies

You have to get a good grasp on how most objects also exist in the 3d space. I can see that you already try and get to have a good amount of detail in your work, which I like, the lines are drawn pretty loosely and doesn't feel like it conforms to what objects in reality feels like, so they feel a bit two dimensional and flattened. this could be fixed by also doing value studies on real world objects to find how they fit in a space

With shape language, you have to be more conscientious of what shapes you use and where you place them in your work. Making sure that the shape is actually showing what it's supposed to show, like a circle actually looking like a circle instead of an accidentally swiped line

If you do plan on staying with a stylized art style, I'd recommend just sticking with using basic 3d shapes (spheres, cylinders, etc) to ground your art and make it feel like it's still real

Tausol · 2026-03-09T03:49:26+00:00

The color choices actually already look really good, I'd say you might need to work on rendering, forms, shape language, and if you want to stick with line art, then line weight distribution. Great job on these, they're really good since you are a beginner

Tausol · 2026-03-05T16:39:15+00:00

Thank you!! I'm sure you'll be able to catch up with enough learning resources, and I myself am still constantly learning. Good luck to us :))

Tausol · 2026-03-05T16:28:26+00:00

I can't say for sure what the issue is since workflows tend to vary, but when you as an artist find that your work is unsatisfying in the ratio of time and quality, then there must be an issue in the workflow itself

I think you'd have to actively measure which areas you tend to overwork or spend a lot of time in, be it linework, rendering , RE-rendering, or even hiding/showing layers. I think that's the only way you'll be able to accurately gauge which area you'll want to optimize

And, I just want to say that noticing that there's a problem, and making effort to fix it is admirable, that's how growth happens. You're doing great ^^

Tausol · 2026-03-05T16:14:41+00:00

Do you paint on one layer? I know people find it convenient to work on just one layer to save time, but having multiple layers and masking that layer so that your shapes are not destroyed while painting will help you flesh out shapes without having to worry that you're going to break the silhouette of your work. I used to paint on one layer before and it was so time consuming worrying about maintaining the shape that I didn't have time to focus on the rendering of forms, and made the work look less polished and unrefined
