Looking for commission artists :D

Posted 5 years, 7 months ago by Ammoth

I have officially updated all of my character profiles, yay!

Which means: I'm good to go on a commission spree B) I already poked around the TH forums a little bit and got some art done, but I'd love to get more. So I'm asking for recommendations! Do you know anyone who has commissions open atm? Do you have commissions open? Hit me up! I'm really looking forward to getting more art of some of my characters <3
Also, for what it's worth: I'm definitely down for art trades, too! Lemme know if that sounds like your think, we can work sth out.

Here's a loose list of what I'm looking for, though it's more of a guideline than hard "must have"s, so if you got a rec that doesn't fit some of that, throw it at me anyway.

  • price range: 10-30$, up to 45$ if I really like it. If you charge more than that that's awesome and I'm really happy for you, but also I am Not That Rich :')
  • expressive human art that takes facial features and body type differences into account.
  • cool monster art.
  • willingness to take a prompt/concept and fucking run with it, especially for nonhuman character designs. I want interpretations of my characters, not perfect copies of my concept art!
  • on a similar note, I'm always interested in artists with peculiar or different art-styles. Crazy, abstract, iconic, bold stuff. Give it to meeeee
  • history nerds. … because Pyrit.
  • fashion nerds.  … because Vasiliy.

And on the flip side: things that will probably not make the cut:

  • manga/anime style, on account of the aforementioned "takes facial features into account". I want my noses BOLD.
  • chibi, for the same reason.

I'd like to officially put myself forward! I admit I usually charge a lot but I'm very happy to stick to your budget in this case. ^_^

Probably the only two things I could help you out with are monster art or running-with-a-concept, as I'm famously bad at the human face (but really good at noses! for some reason!)

(Also, Magnolia is just beautiful.)

I would love to get something from you, buddy! We could work out a budget (I'm fine with flats, I like your lines and flats a lot. That moon/sun monster on you dA is gorgeous), or if you want we could make it an art trade? Though I can't guarantee consistency, my art's kind of all over the place as of late. Whatever you prefer!

Is there anyone you'd be particularly interested in drawing? I'm kinda hoping to get art of the characters that don't have so much art yet, like Aspen, Cereus, or Magnolia, but tbh I'd also be really interested in what you'd do with Pyrit, or one of the death gods. So it's your choice, really!

Also ty I'm glad you like her <3 Can't take credit for her design though, that one's on Jenny. Should credit it to her, actually, I completely forgot to do that!

Actually, an art trade would be great! I can still do flats if you actually prefer that, but I'm cool with shading/texture if you'd rather. Up to you! (And thanks! I need to get some more art of him finished up and I can shove him on toyhouse too.) I pretty much always love your art regardless of what your style's currently doing, so honestly anything's fine with me.

Honestly, Pyrit is fascinating and I'd love to take a crack at them, but they have so much art already and Aspen is also a wonderful concept. I'd be happy to try either of them, but I think much as I love Pyrit, Aspen would benefit from some attention.

Ordinarily I'd leap at a chance for the death gods, but I'm tired of feathers. Another time!

A trade it is! :D
And uh, floats or shaded, whatever you want? But I would love to get both versions if you decide to shade it ;)

It's true, Pyrit has a lot of art. He's my spoiled favorite xD I would absolutely love to see your taken on Aspen, though, and they're in dire need of more art, so that would be awesome, yes!

Who would you like to have drawn?

Can do! I'll probably get started on Aspen tomorrow, sinceit's a bit late to start today.

And as for my own characters, I'd be very happy to see you attempt Guuuuk, but if he doesn't appeal to you, Colophonii somehow never got any other art, and I imagine you could do some fun things with the musical motif.

No rush man! I don't think I'll get yours done very fast either, I am pretty busy currently.

And ah man, I like both of these! I'm gonna give Guuuuk a shot, and if I can't get his anatomy to cooperate I'll try the other one. These are both neat designs and concepts, though, nice nice
