Character Sale/Trade: Updated August 2020

Posted 4 years, 11 months ago (Edited 3 years, 8 months ago) by Kada

I've gone through and reorganized my trade and sale folder to better space out the offerings that I have and make everything easier to navigate. You can find the folder here.

A quick guide to what different tags mean:

  • Trade means that the character is open to be traded for other character designs and/or art.
  • Sell means that the character is open to be sold. I use PayPal for all character sales. Most characters who have this tag have a purchase price listed on their page. All the prices are listed in USD.
  • Offer means that the character is for sale, but either has such a low initial price (less than 1 USD, typically) or that I cannot find the price that I originally paid, and so I am willing to entertain low offers for them.
In terms of what I look for in trades:
  • Simple designs. I like characters that are easy to replicate or describe. Lots of colors or patterns are typically a no-go, though I may forego this qualifier if I really like a design.
  • Monsters. I love monstrous designs, especially those with reptilian or insectoid traits. Mythological monsters are great, but I also enjoy more alien/unique designs. Cryptids and cryptid-like creatures are my favorites.
  • Humanoids. With humanoid designs, I tend to like those with fairly realistic proportions, and tend to prefer more modern styles of clothing over fantasy or historical outfits. I don't have a preference across the gender or body type spectrum, though I don't have much use for younger looking characters.
  • Traits. Pink and blonde hair, scars, tattoos, and piercings are some of my major weaknesses in character designs. I like formally dressed characters as well as pastel and mall goth and punk styles. My biggest weakness is a character with a nose that has been broken and reset crooked. I don't know why, I just love it.
What I do not look for in trades:
  • Anthro. While I do love anthro and furry character designs, I have found that I don't click with them enough to actually role play with them.
  • Closed Species. I like having flexibility with my ability to write, role play, and change characters as I see fit. I can't do this with most CS, and I don't really have an interest in looking up a particular species and reading through their information and rules to make sure that they are something that I would even be interested in.

If you want to trade art for a character design: I will talk to you privately via DMs either here or on Discord (whichever you are more comfortable with) and work out what you the artist think would be a fair trade. Since I am not doing any work in this kind of trade, I am more willing to trade 'down' so to speak and get less than what the character I am giving away.

Final Note: If I do not get back to you in a reasonable amount of time, you can always reply again. In all likelihood I saw your message while I was at work or otherwise preoccupied, deleted the notification out of habit, and forgot to look and/or respond to your offer. I am sorry if this happens. I am working on it. Thank you for your patience.

billiegoats Sorry. None of the designs you have up for trade are quite what I'm looking for. Thanks for the interest though.

Kada

Butter_Dragon I'd be willing to accept that. What would you be willing to draw in exchange? 

Senkarii

Hello! I really like Nel's design^^ I can offer these characters: https://toyhou.se/1991983.delilah, https://toyhou.se/4230239.reina, https://toyhou.se/4215772.idk and/or digital/traditional art for her

Tenko_Shimura

Is there  anyone you might be interested on Joker for https://toyhou.se/937496.florinda-vibrant

Kada

Butter_Dragon That sounds like a fair deal to me. Li is probably the character I'd be interested in getting art for, without the tusks or furry ears.

Senkarii  Could I request a few head shots (in whichever style is easier for you) as exchange? If that sounds fine, how many do you think would be fair for trade?

Zora Out of the designs that I see, this gal is the only one that really stands out to me. I understand if you're not down for that though.

Senkarii

Of course, that sounds great <3 tysm! I could do three head shots for her if that's okay^^ 

Kada

Senkarii That sounds perfect. I'll PM you some deets.

NyandereMuffins

Holy moly Kieran is cool! I can offer art for him if you're interested? Here's my IG for examples!

Kada

NyandereMuffins absolutely. What do you think would be fair for the trade, from your side?

NyandereMuffins

Kadakism Would 2 thigh ups be okay? Or 3 busts? I can do a mixture of those too.

Sorry if I'm low balling things, I'm still getting accustomed to what my art is worth. ><;; If it's too little or you'd like something else, let me know!

Kada

NyandereMuffins no that sounds fine by me. I'll PM you with the references.
