# About me
Just a guy working towards a career in art, as all of us are. I use Photoshop for any new digital work and a wide variety for any traditional stuff (pencil, charcoal, paint, pastel).# Comments

Aye, you said you wanted to do commissions, yeah? Here's a short guide I made to help you out ^_^ (meaning on how to put 'em up since you never did)
1. Go to the top of your page and click "EDIT PAGE" on the top right hand corner, right beneath your llama
2. Go through widgets you can add; just choose all types and find the one entitled "COMMISSIONS"
3. Slide it into a slot anywhere on your page you want it
4. Click done and scroll down to wherever you placed the "COMMISSIONS" widget
5. Click on the pencil icon on the top right hand corner of the "COMMISSIONS" widget
6. Add whatever commissions you'd like to offer (artists generally offer 'Sketch', 'Full Body w/ Background', etc.

Yeah i do want to I'm just waiting a bit longer
I feel a lot more relaxed not having to draw people stuff and i want to develop my style more before people expect amazing things from me
I want to make an almost comic book style but i also want to focus on a bit of realism and not that im expecting a ton of people to want to pay me but i feel like people were mainly asking me for requests was because i wasnt charging for it i was just willingly drawing their stuff
Also i dont really want to be a freelance artist as a career
I currently have a job so its not like im a poor teenager hoping someone will pay me
So yeah i do want to do commissions... eventually
And thank you this information will help me when i get to that point
π: 0 β©: 1
Fair points. As for your comic style... there are groups especially for comics. And most people don't come to dA for work; you gotta be a damned good artist for a full on job here, like Autlaw or Endling or something. Commissions (for me at least, but I write and mainly do concepts and stuff) are just fun t get out of the monotony of what it is I do.
And I am a poor teenager with no job DX Life is cruel, idn't it? (and by the way, when there's a typo like that, it is probably intentional. I like accents in text.)

Yeah i definitely understand the escapism part of it
I usually draw in order to relax myself and not have to think about my actual problems
And the idea of people thinking something ive drawn is cool is the best feeling

Same thing for writing, that's why I worry about feedback. If you don't have someone telling you what you've done is good, then how do you know?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah i absolutely get it
Im awful at writing but i understand the effort and understanding of language that you need to describe the world you want to create
So i totally admire people like you who can write well

Well thank you ^_^ Me, I'd trade it all for the ability to make art. Words describe beauty; artwork is beauty.

You too man

Hmmm....
Don't suppose you take requests/commissions?
π: 0 β©: 1
I sure do
Silly question but is there a difference between requests and commisions
Im sort of new to all of this so im still learning stuff
π: 0 β©: 1
Uh. Requests are for people who don't really have money/points and are *cough cough* free.
Commissions are generally for the professional artists that do this for a living to make some money off of it.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ok cool...
Yeah i can take requests
Like i said I'm new so Im not tryin to make money just yet
What would you like to request?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well....
I'm basically an OC factory. It's my purpose. Not sure if you know what an SCP is? Probably not...
Well, SCP is a fictional giant foundation that gathers things that aren't normal, like SCP-173 and SCP-049.
Well, my own SCP stuff generally goes unnoticed (obviously).
But, I'd like a picture of one of my favorite members, Researcher "Knuckles".
I can give reference images, but... I'd like something cool for him.

dave-wilkins.deviantart.com/ar⦠Album cover the character is based on
Er. Maybe not so bloody lol. Just an ENORMOUS muscular superhuman. This character comes into my stories a lot...
π: 0 β©: 3
so you want him wearing the clothes shown on the album cover and do you want me to give him weapons?
π: 0 β©: 1
Erm. Researcher-type clothes. Labcoat, sterile colors, etc.
Weapons? Maybe brass knuckles.
