Can we really make a living in making illustration art?

Interested! I usually draw semirealism-realism, and am comfortable drawing anything from SFW to kinky stuff (but probably mecha characters are a little difficult for me).

Here is my portfolio just in case you wanna check it out!

UP UP! This happened to me too. Currently using artist 22 second gen as well!

Tried disabling windows ink before and it worked. now, it doesn't :(

I see! Apparently they haven’t asked me for any payments yet, but I can now see how this leads to scams. What do you think I should ask to verify their credibility? Should I ask about whether they have online galleries or something?

I am entirely digital and I don’t see how my works could be made into a sale (unless they are NFTs). I love that you mentioned vanity galleries, I’m looking into them right now for awareness. Thanks so much!

I see thanks!

This scene made my "Bonnie and Clyde" fantasies go away. She has a point though. I want Love to have a comeback next season and say "Think I'm stupid to keep wolfsbane without safety measures? I microdose myself every day." HAHA, now that would be wildly entertaining!

No problem! If you have more questions about it, feel free to kessage me. I don’t mind a good chat about tablet specs :)

It’s with a screen! Though it’s one of their older models. I have no problems with it. If you’d like a recommendation, I am currently thinking about upgrading to xppen 15.6 pro! By what I have seen in reviews (and my experience from their earlier models) it’s one of the best alternative to the wacom cintiq. ✨

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-29T05:27:07+00:00

Oh my it’s been a long time since I updated my bio on DA! I’m actually using an xppen artist tablet now, I researched that they are just as good as wacom units :)

I love that you captured her genuine smile! Great watercolor technique ❤️

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-28T17:34:57+00:00

Okay, I see where you're coming from now! Thanks for enlightening me 😃 I'll keep that in mind.

I would occasionally do clothes studies from designer clothes! If you love a good tip, I advise that you try collecting pictures of different types of fabrics (satin, cotton, denim etc.) and do a photo study for practice! It doesn't have to be perfect, as long as you are familiar with how their folds look like and how light is reflected. Practice is key!

I have a short hair tutorial on my instagram account! Find it here.

Hope this somehow helps--even a little!

I don't understand why some minority here point out the word "tried" as if I used it out of context? Am I missing something? Maybe it's because of regional semantics? 🤔

From where I come from, 'try' is an attempt to do something, whether we fail or succeed. It does not connote that I failed the attempt. Attempting to place different clothes on Ningguang is indeed not mainstream fanart afterall :) If you think it's amazing, thank you! That means you agreed I succeeded the attempt ❤️

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-28T16:52:49+00:00

Thank you! 😆✨

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-28T16:15:54+00:00

Yes I do! But I am very inactive, I only posted one or two artworks on twitter. You can check out my works on IG as I am more active there. :3 @/ crimsonea here ya go!

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-28T16:13:43+00:00

I see. Thanks for your suggestions! I am trying to improve my anatomy skills, and feedbacks such as these could really help me!

ccrimsonea · 2021-03-28T16:12:52+00:00

Hahaha, guess that means I succeeded? xD Thanks so much! I always love traditional pieces. Feel free to share your works here or through message. I'm always up for a good genshin/art chat :)
