So my fellow artist who accept commissions, how many commission requests do you get usually? I got a few thousand followers on Twitter and I probably average around 1-2 commission request per week. Just wondering if this is on the low side since I noticed that there are other artist who get way more than this, but they are NSFW so that might make things different since I'm doing SFW.

I want to start commission. How do you negotiate with the client? Do you charge upfront or after?

All the people who actually get commissions and do quality work are working right now. All the faggots who shitpost all day and complain about being unable to pick up a pencil because of depression are your current audience

Same ammount as you, sometimes even less.

Lol, so accurate.

Welp that's a little disheartening to hear, but realized people just can't shell out monies all the time. I still remember a NSFW artist on /ic once claimed that he gets more commission than he can handle but I guess that's tall order for SFW work...

>>4032571
I didn't mentioned anything but people nearly always pay immediately after I agree to do their commission(s).

How much do you people charge? I recently saw someone on twitter who charges like $300 for a single character or something like that and I think I might be underselling myself for charging $80, considering it takes me like 8 hours to complete work like that. Maybe that's why I'm poor and broke and never gonna make it and still live with my parents.

I charge slighly higher than your rate but that's pretty much it. I'd imagine that you have to be super good or popular to charge $300 for a private commission

I imagine you must work much faster than me to make it worth it.
