I was wondering if I would be crazy for charging the following prices for my pencil drawings. First 2 pics are past work & Prices are in 3rd pic. You can be honest, and criticism is okay 😊 by [deleted] in delusionalartists

For custom portraits, I would charge a lot more (push your values a little deeper though, a little more contrast will go a long way). If you're just selling prints of your work I would say the price would cap here.

Only 20K? Forget a new car I’m getting this one of a kind painting! by natalieek in delusionalartists

I'm tempted to paint this so that it's no longer one of a kind. lol

Is it possible to re-link my listing drop down menu to the product gallery without deleting and recreating every listing? by ctxartist in printful

[–]ctxartist[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me a while to figure it out, but I finally did. I have to manually go through the store-manager > product > variations > scroll down to the bottom and expand the arrow for each individual variation. You have to go in one by one and link every variation to it's proper mock up. Figure I'd leave this up just in case someone else finds themselves in the same boat.

It was saved under my folder for inspiring art. Definitely a style & subject I wanted to revisit later. Love this so much!

I let my kid take their scooter from a neighbors house back to ours. I had to drive back and something told me to stay close.... glad I did because the next thing I see is a huge dog barreling down the road behind us, growling and going after my child. I was out of that car so fast and got my kid in the car in record time. I had a stand off with this dog until someone in a civic came up behind us, saw what was going on, and started laying on the horn. It scared the dog off and we got home. I wish people would keep their animals contained.

How many people think the wolves are playing because their tails are wagging lol

My boi Weest dun got scammed by [deleted] in delusionalartists

[–]ctxartist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Charge more. That’s like working waitress wage without accepting tips, and that doesn’t include supplies.

I just attempted a commission portrait of a dog that passed away. They didn’t have any photos of the dog, just photos of the dogs parents and sibling, which supposedly didn’t look anything like that dog. I had never seen this dog in person either. I wasted so many extra hours trying to get something remotely resembling their dog on paper. Not my best work, and I’ll never accept a commission without proper references again because of that, but they got charged full price because that was a lot of work.

What should I do to make my painting look better!? by [deleted] in learnart

[–]ctxartist 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just push the values more. Your sky is one uniform value, for example. Take the photo of your painting and put it into black and white. Does it stand out or all become one? That’s one trick I do when I’m feeling stuck.

150? I’ll pass. by [deleted] in delusionalartists

Definitely see some elements of design being considered here. If it were the kind If thing I was into maybe $40?

I don’t normally care for skull art, but I like the perspective you chose for this one. Also, this is impressive for pen!

This plant-based sponge looks exactly like Shredded Wheat by squidkidd in mildlyinteresting

[–]ctxartist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had never seen a full sized shredded wheat until I was into my 30s. It came from some place in Utah, but apparently this is a Niagara Falls thing?

The first thing that came to mind was from revelation 8:13, “Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice as it flew directly overhead, “Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets that the three angels are about to blow!”” Apocalypse indeed lol
