Hello, I'm hoping to start doing commissions soon but I feel I need to settle on a style before doing so, what would be the most eye catching in terms of getting sells? And am I even commission ready? been drawing for a little over 10 years now

I don't do comms so take this with a grain of salt, but wouldn't it beneficial to have multiple styles so more people are interested in requesting? Especially when all of these are quite distinct.

If you don't wanna do that due to it being easier, I think style 1 and 2 are more eye catchy, but that could just be me due to me liking more cartoon-ish art, but I will say the lighting on the first one is extra nice + with that simple gradient background and colored shadows, definitely eye catching.

I would love to do all my styles personally, I guess I am only finding trouble with knowing how to market all of them? Sharing my art has shown me that style 1, 2 and 4 got no attention, but styles 3 and 5 did? I'm having mostly self doubt and worry that what I think is good isnt good and what I think isnt my best work somehow manages to get a lot of attention. But yes I'd love to sell all of them ideally especially 1 and 2 they are very fun

Well I can't say for sure, like I said I don't do comms so I wouldn't know, but maybe just give a try, experiment a bit with comms, and if it seems that people still don't give too much attention to the other styles you can always focus on marketing the other ones that do

That looks really good!! I don’t see anything wrong with how you display it so, I don’t think having multiple should be a disadvantage?
