Very nice!
ebon briar
And yo keychain is that an acrylic charm? What manufacturer are you using might I ask? @devout stream
once i graduate from pins/stickers i want to move onto acrylic charms but they seem intimidating lol
devout stream
Zap! Creative
you have to put in some work to make your art eligible to be printed. basically it involves making a few layers in a psd file, they have tutorials
they will also refund half of your payment if you only buy 1 charm as a prototype
I'm looking forward to testing the rest and ordering a bunch to sell
@ebon briar pinging to make sure u see this
devout stream
I think they have tutorials for other programs too
psd I was using as a general term
devout stream
I don't remember
devout stream
yep!

You're better off drawing him with void eggs and frozen tears
stable elbow
what does he have against breakfast wwtf
onyx island
He'd rather have raw fish slices
onyx island
He eats them of course
lone mountain
stable elbow
why jodi getting mad about an egg anyways
onyx island
because she's the one that will most likely end up cleaning it up
stable elbow
oh yea
she doesnt let her boys do chores
but fr why did we have to take the blame
lone mountain
you dont have to
i only did cause i didnt wanna lose friendship points
that and i didnt actually blame myself before'
all my first plays i blamed him
serves him right
i was expecting him to have a self reflection when i rightfully blamed him
stable elbow
i took the blame everytime ๐ โ

@ebon briar if it makes you feel better about your Shane, how you draw his nose inspired how I draw his nose

ebon briar

He still is adorable
lone mountain
ok true

lone mountain
he used to be so innocent*
arctic hare
ebon briar
im drawing a bug morris and
i gave myself a fucking mini heart attack looking at reference photos
gonna spoiler it bc i know ppl dont like bugs but as someone who likes bugs ๐ i.... okay this is a moth being preyed on by a spider but im tried and thought those were the moths legs
i thought for a good like 5 seconds that this moth just had giant fucking legs
arctic hare
How does that relate to creative discussion thou?
ebon briar
im drawin morris as that specific moth
onyx island
it's the reference he used to draw bug Morris a bit up
ebon briar
like one post up
arctic hare
O
ebon briar
cause im drawin him as a bug dude and thats the specific moth im using
every time i draw morris i draw his face like
too large
and too far up his head
i love how its always my favs i struggle to draw most
echo mesa
mood
ebon briar
okay like ignoring the whole weird bug shit
he doesnt look like a real person
he looks like
a reptoid
in a human costume
scheming
onyx island
reptoid in human costume scheming sounds like regular Morris ๐
ebon briar
and also like cause im trying to get down to a specific species,,,, but this moth is just
a regular old moth
the worst morris i have ever drawn even ignoring the whole bug thing i hate his face his mouth is too wide and he looks like he's 80 and a reptoid
he's a black witch moth who give off a smug aura cause the top side of their wings + their back is just... pure black and they take up a shitload of space whenever they land on things
so its just this big dark spot on your wall
that mocks you
youre not gonna squish it its huge
but you dont want it there
dont ask. ive bugified? a bunch of other characters just to fit in with my bug ocs lore :V
also it means pierre has an excuse to spray him with raid
arctic hare
I think you did a really decent job. Certainly very unique. It might be hard but try and have a more positive outlook on what you produce. Trash taking your work can really bring down other peoples confidence to post and we really want people to feel like they can post in a fun and positive environment.
ebon briar
๐
but yeah god ive got quite a few characters who ive given the bug treatment :V some more interesting than others
((friends oc, PartyCatAnthem on twitter/tumblr)) I think the one above is a... i want to say silk moth or gypsy moth???? i had like a specific species written down (but also with rough sketches its hard to tell) and this one is a...lemon yellow butterfly??
And this is 'TSHPunk's character who ive been workin on bugging,,,,, i think xey're a blue longhorn beetle?
arctic hare
It's a very unique style I haven't seen before.
ebon briar
for context it all just links back to my good ol crash oc :V his entire gimmick is he wants to turn others into bugpeople like him,,, and all the above characters are either pre-existing characters or peoples ocs in the same universe who in some weird au bug boy managed to,, buggify
so of course when i un-bugged him and made him an average person and plopped him into stardew valley i naturally had to turn morris into a bug pal as well
yes im weird yeehaw
but i mean hey its fun and it isnt hurting anyone
okay I think I like this face better?
I think I tend to make his mouth too wide is what it is
storm meadow
Thatโs something we canโt really tell because it can be a personal style
but he looks so handsome here 
ebon briar
ty!
and rough sketch of that bug oc but in,,, regular person stardew form. he isnt evil w/ conspiracies to make bug people, he just wants to live his life off in the forest. lives in dress shirts.
he's got big goofy glasses that he refuses to take off, probably sleeps in them
ebon briar
oh ty!
he lives in the cindersap woods in a lil cabin but spends most of his time outdoors. the only time he goes into town is to check out library books about bugs
morris takes the risk to ask him out solely because he... he literally has never talked to morris or pierre, he has 0 biases and won't deck morris like every other villager would. he lives off fish he catches and stuff he forages, so he's never really had to shop in town
and my dumb gay farmer, having had 0 relationship experience before, forgets that they're dating sometimes and doesn't really know what a 'proper' date looks like
ebon briar
nymphus sect!! nymphus bc nymph = babby dragonfly, n.sect when shortened
he wasnt interested in girls but for most of his life he never even considered that he could like guys
again dumb gay farmer,,,
i kinda want to give him more like buggy features? i gave him a long nose which kinda mimicks like a mosquito snout
maybe give him some hair curls
that look like antennae?
ebon briar
ye!!
thin dagger
another idea to think about (that i just came up with) like. idk how to explain but theres the types of suits where the back bottom part splits? and like maybe thatll look like wings?? if that makes any sense

could be the pencil you're using , looks like the paint picked up the graphite ?
ebon briar
That's what I thought it was
Though I had double checked to make sure I'd erased all the graphite on the eye
The' graphite' you see around the edges of the eye is just... the weird grains
ebon briar
I've sold 1 sticker and I've been here for 4 hours yeehaw
tidal nova
(tip: get off your phone and smile at people)
(they'll be more happy to see you open to conversation and looking at your art etc)
(if you're drawing at the same time, hide your phone for the ref and think about looking around your potential clients a lot)
(the artist area in Paris was ridiculous this year. Artists didn't care at all about people and were the whole time on their phones and didn't even bother responding to questions, it was miserable ;-; )
ebon briar
I have been, when I check phone for refs I keep it under the table
tidal nova
good idea (imo) 
I should go back to drawing
I wanna draw so badly but I am never very like... satisfied with my work

ooh watchu drawing tho?

I like the relationship established in game between the farmer and Alex, but I don't ever want to do self inserts. Solution is simply write a farmer character in the player character place and write out the relationship with your own flair

even tho i lean towards girls irl (i'm pan/bi lol)
only one i find attractive is emily, but she's not my type personality wise (it's probably becuase none of them have short hair except like emily)
meanwhile all of the guys are just so good i have trouble choosing ahahaha
i literally love all of them (except sam, tho i stil like him a lot ahaha)

Your more than welcome to add something to your nickname saying Commissions are open (like many others). But just a warning not to "advertise it" as it does go against our advertising rule and could land you in trouble ๐

just do fanart for a popular game/show/franchise and post it on reddit with a title that doesnt make it obvious that you're advertising, like "my friend asked me to draw [character]!" and link your page and mention you do comms

tbh th best way to do it is go into the commissions tag on a site and SEARCH for people looking for commissions
safe goblet
or if you get INSANELY popular
fringe coyote
among the commission advertising posts
safe goblet
there's also starving artist reddit
untold sorrel
commissions tag?
pastel iris
what's hard about commission is the pricing for me :/
safe goblet
urgh y'all making me want to draw
fleet gazelle
dew it
safe goblet
but I can't cus my tablet pen's dead and the charging cable got thrown out
pastel iris
was like I keep questioning myself, does this art with just really simple colouring can worth some pennies? xD
untold sorrel
i went on a whim and told someone a piece would be 110$ and they were like 'ok!' AND ACTUALLY PAID ME????
pastel iris
I don't even use pentabs or any digital drawing assisting getups or stuff
fringe coyote
i got a 400$ commish
fleet gazelle
Wow
fleet gazelle
Rich
ebon briar
Honestly
untold sorrel
All of my art is ipad & csp now
fringe coyote
search "commissions" or some varient
search through and find people who are LOOKING for commissions
ebon briar
Confidence in ur commissions/art is what makes me decide whether or not to commission soleone
fringe coyote
and DM them
fleet gazelle
Yea I use sketch book on iPad
untold sorrel
im pretty confident! I just have depression LMAO
pastel iris
the question is, is it possible doing commission job thing with this ill equipped state?
ebon briar
If they're moaning and grumbling about how they hate doing commissions or how their art 'is garbage'even if they have a somehow near flawless art style I'm not going to want to buy from them
safe goblet
if people are willing to pay you for your art then you can be commissioned ๐คท
fringe coyote
you know what pains me??? artists undercharging themselves
ebon briar
AND IF THEY UNDER CHARGE I DONT COMMISH
untold sorrel
Right, after the last person paid 110$ i was, so happy, like if people are willing to pay 110 then who van stop me now
ebon briar
Under charging is a sign of a lack of confidence or lack of value of their art
untold sorrel
but what would be overcharging for my art?
ebon briar
You cant really overcharge.
safe goblet
you definitely can
imo when pricing your art, consider how long it takes to do a piece, how much effort you need to put in, and how long it's taken you of specifically practicing with the intent to get better to get where you are
fringe coyote
tbhh your art is SUPER CUTE
ebon briar
Pick an hourly wage and base your prices around it
Dont choose anything below minimum wage
safe goblet
and of course the content like is it a sketch or a thing with a background or multiple characters or what
untold sorrel
right, right!
untold sorrel
tbh i sorta....base my prices around what other artists are charging and tweak them to my personal taste
ebon briar
Okay on average it takes me a little over 2 hours to do art in this style so I'll charge a little above 30
But I have a mutual who does 25$ an hour who ove commissioned from
And if they take 2 hours to design a button... Sure the buttons did end up costing me 50 each,but I'm also paying for their time, their skill, and a 1200x1200 digital image of the design
fringe coyote
this is my commission sheet if it helps, i think my pricing is ok
untold sorrel
true true!
fringe coyote
honestly i'm really unconfident in my pricing as well
ebon briar
DO NOT drop your prices in an attempt to hook someone who is unsure. If you do be very careful
At this con today I ducked up by slashing prices on my sticker bundles but that means that
Next convention I go to
Pepple won't buy because theyll expect me to have the same lowered prices
untold sorrel
i see i see
ebon briar
Plus its like
If you're talking privately with someone who wants a commission
You charge 45 bucks
But you're desperate to make the sale
So you drop it to 30
That person tells their friend they got a comm for 30
Yer fucked
untold sorrel
true
pastel iris
so basically, discounting is.. a bad thing? ๐ค
pastel iris
looks like doing commissions and food business is kinda different lmao
anyways I'll keep that noted
untold sorrel
Ive seen artists discount before but they state clearly its not the regular rates and they have a specific start and end date
pastel iris
and if one is never made a commission before and barely make alot of arts (just like me), how do I get start?
is it necessary to make deviantart account, tumblr, and many lot of accounts o.O
fringe coyote
go to tumblr
search "commissions"
look for posts that say "hey i'm looking for a commission, DM me"
or something
trust me this worked so well for me
pastel iris
even though I only have 5 arts on my arsenal atm?
fringe coyote
becuase usually people don't search "commissions" cause it's mostly advertisings
yeah!!
send them a DM and like
"hey, I saw your post about wanting a commission. mine are open! here's some samples if you're interested/haven't found anyone yet "
and send a few peices/price sheet
trust me this is how i got a 400$ commission and an 80$ commission in the sam day
pastel iris
how can I say now xD
back on my ill-equipped state, I'm really nervous about this
what if the commission I made is out of the client's expectation?
fringe coyote
that's not your fault i mean
as long as it's on the same level as the art samples you provided
it's their job to explain what they want properly
a good way to avoid this is doing a half upfront payment
get half the money upfront
and after you finish, they give you the rest, just to make sure
so if they decide to be like "im not gonna pay"
you've at least gotten the first half
and they are more likely to pay the rest becuase "well i've already payed half"
untold sorrel
^ always do half payments
pastel iris
noted
as about the common pricing of chibi characters, how much are them usually? ๐ค
especially for the starters
fleet gazelle
devout bridge
im late but i drop prices for emergencies. but thats like. emergencies when i rly need cash lmao
storm meadow
15? Just lineart?
devout bridge
that seems fair to me? i see lineart around 20$ a lot of the time, sketches for half that
devout bridge
iiiiiii do 25$/figure w colour no shading because im a dumbass, but 15 for just lineart sounds good. no shading on sketches tho
untold sorrel
for myself, chibi are fast, but im developing the old anime style lol
devout bridge
im in the middle of redoing prices cause a binch needs to live
untold sorrel
same i need money for insulin....lol
storm meadow
I agree that $15 for lineart CHIBI character design is reasonable
devout bridge
wheeze
storm meadow
O good luck Feeb!
I hope you get a lot of commissions coming!

sambastian?
lament turtle
Nameโs Adrian
For now hes gonna be a sandy-like npc
But if our mod gets enough attention we might turn him into a talkable npc
pastel iris
would be better if he's marriageable as well, there are many samples on new npc mods that is made through CP though
lament turtle
Weโre using JA and, once again, weโre probably gonna make him an eligible bachelor if our mod is popular enough
pastel iris
JA for npc mod? never heard of that method 
lament turtle
No what i mean is that the mod uses ja but weโre going to use cp for the npc
I donโt know
Its my first mod after all

Decided not to take the last drawing too seriously and just made it a sketch - got to experiment with some brushes though.
Far away eye is eh but again, not a serious image.
slate yoke
@onyx island I think you mean "exposure" ๐
unreal stream
the most exclusive currency
devout bridge
if youre worried about proportions you should flip your canvas
if its well proportioned it'll be correct on the reverse of the image, and if its not you'll be able to tell
unreal stream
Never considered doing that, thanks.
I dunno when I'll do a serious drawing. Soon I hope.
devout bridge
dw about it, making a serious drawing into a task is a great way to psyche yourself out
just draw some stuff till u wanna draw something bigger
onyx island
Lol yeah exposure
faint fulcrum
I am wanting to create an NPC, but I don't want him to look too out of place compared to the other villagers. I welcome all critique.
Here is a bigger image
tepid remnant
The shading seems a biiit off, maybe try darker colors ? Otherwise it's good !
fringe gyro
The game has a lot of contrast. Try using more of that.
Also, the top of the head seems a bit flat. Perhaps round it out a smidge.
Looks really good tho!
slate yoke
His hair is too flat on top, it makes his head look flat
Typically you should be going for an overall rounded shape with head and hair
jovial sandal
Looks impressive so far. Of course there are improvements to be made as well
Here, before I started playing Stardew Valley, I had a non SDV OC Couple named Sebastian and Tessa. After "looking up profiles of villagers, bachelors, and bachelorettes", I saw the name Sebastian, and I was like "Oh, Sebastian! I have an OC named Sebastian!" So then I made my second ever drawing of Tess and first with SDV Sebby. As I said, I am struggling to start digitally, so I decided to start physically and scan instead, and then finish digitally. That's why this is WIP.
fringe coyote
ah, sorry about the long messagr
but not that it isn't 3 am, what do y'all think of my animation ? (im only gonna link it one more time so people don't have to scroll, but this is the last time i rpomise)

ohdang animating with still images instead of framebyframe, good idea ;o looks cute!
fringe coyote
yeah, these are just the "keyframes"
imma animate inbetweens later but i'm just proud to have made this so far aHH

I want to start animating but all I've ever done in life are small things in Flipnote back on my DSi LOL

The coffee looks a bit odd, like it's just pinned on there. Maybe have it on a sign or something.

ugh I have to design a charcter based on an element in science and I was placed with Promethium. Thinking about doing a Athenian styled character but ehhhhhhhh help
Hereโs what I have design wise but idk if I should change it or not I am gonna change the dress tho
lament turtle
What would u like help with?
candid citrus
'promethium' is the neatest element name
slate yoke
I'd think of something more akin to Prometheus, the dude who gave humanity fire
onyx island
and was tied to a rock with vultures eating his liver because of it
but I don't think that part is nice for a drawing lol
lament turtle
I like the hair in the drawing with the crown itโs really cool
slate yoke
Yeahhhhhh
lament turtle
what does the coffee reaction mean
Yes
Iโd love feedback for this
Colored pencil drawings arenโt my strong suit so I would love some critiques
slate yoke
What do you want critiqued?
Having a specific area to work on in mind helps make focused critique!
lament turtle
Hair, shading
I always have trouble with using colors that look good together nicely
lament turtle
I use colored pencils
lone mountain
ur hair and shading is perfect as is imo
lament turtle
I can never do hair the way Iโd like to but I love u thx ๐๐
This is another drawing I struggled with
Color wise
slate yoke
I think as is your hair is pretty solid in that first drawing
Here I think you might be using a flawed palette. Those two shades are clashing
slate yoke
I'd say tone the yellow/gold down some so it's a bit closer to the darkness in the blue
elfin swan
because Promethium has a similar color to an olive
slate yoke
Blue and yellow do go together as I'm sure you know, just at a similar saturation
lament turtle
Thank uuuuuu UwU
It feels good to have a space to talk about art
There arenโt many art kids at my school
slate yoke
I'm gonna try to hash out another chapter of my fanfic tonight, let's see how that goes :p

Good luck with that
