Gremlin | COMMISSIONS OPEN

the brain is crispy like slightly burnt fries. Diner Cutie

Gobbo time. Qelsie is a top tier inventory goblin. Perfect for identifying the most valuable loot.

#VGenComm Another commission done. Gotta crunch out a couple more this week. This one's for SparkyBoy's villainess

@EvaBeeSmith People are complaining about her new look? I had a singular issue with it, and it was solely that in part of the trailer, the lighting and angle meant her nose was just nostrils, nothing else. Just two dots on her face and it was distracting

god forbid a mother looks like a mother and not a child lol

@DiscussingFilm lord, have mercy on the poor sop that's going to look like he's sucking off a toy horse when he's trying to dump the last pieces of popcorn into his mouth

First look at the Trojan Horse popcorn bucket for ‘THE ODYSSEY’.

I think I shall take part in NASA's June art challenge. Got a couple vague ideas coming to mind, but need to flesh them out a bit.

#VGenComm Just finished a commission of Kaypon's smug nobleman. Quite happy with how it came out

@some_thin9_good the human body has the strange anomaly of relying on oxygen, but is unable to detect a lack of it. We could breathe in other gases that would kill us in place of O2, but not realize it. We detect too much CO2 to determine if we're not getting air, but not if the air we get is O2

실제로 산소는 독성이 너무 강해서 초기 생물체들은 무산소 호흡을 주로 했답니다. 그러다가 미토콘드리아가 산소를 이용하여 에너지를 만들기 시작했어요. 대부분의 생물이 바다에서 발생하고 육상 진출이 오래 걸렸던 것에도 이게 작용해요.

@csaurageul I wouldn't call it bad advice. Art is subjective and people approach it with their own styles, and that includes using white backgrounds, line colors, or white highlights. There's fundamentals necessary to improve (like anatomy when drawing people), but what they said isn't that

there are a number of quotes with terrible advice like this and you shouldn't listen to it drawing, like every other art form, is a technical skill at it's core, and an emotional one second, and there are fundamentals that you NEED to learn if you want to *actually* get better at drawing you cannot express your thoughts and feelings effectively if you lack the technical skill to pull it off telling people to just "do whatever" is like saying "music is just noise" it isn't you need to not only know the process, but understand why it exists, what it means you need to learn the rules BEFORE you start to break them you might think you know better than the thousands of years of great masters who came before you, but you don't listen to them

dont draw on a bright white canvas dont draw with bright black lines dont touch the gradient tool dont shade with dodge and burn dont shade with multiply dont highlight with white dont use the same value for any of your flat colours

I have extra free time before I need to possibly cut down on commissions. I want to get some good ol' summertime pieces in. Through June 22, I'm offering a 10% discount on summer themed pieces: Beach Days, Swimsuits, Yukata, Summer Festivals, Summer Camp,etc #vgen #vgencommission

@seion_alter Something to note: anyone trying to be good at art can't do that by only copying someone else. They won't know the HOW for drawing anything the referenced artist hasn't already done. So adapting that style to do new things will always lead to variations distinct from the original

@seion_alter It can vary with some people feeling flattered (many take up teaching) and others getting upset. I think getting upset about it is a bit gatekeepy. Everyone learned from somewhere and was influenced by someone. You see something you like and you use it in your art. It's normal

do people find it rude if you try to copy a specific person's artstyle? theres been a few artist i wanna do this to just to learn and for fun but idk how well it would be received

@BigDogBeedo It is a game if you use the loosest definition of game that would've been less expensive and more successful if they just made it a movie. It's less interactive than the versions of the Final Destination movies where you had a QTE to decide if the character survives

Is that Mixtape game fr good because every clip I see looks unbearable what is this dialogue ahaha

@lalalalack I think it might be because of the new auto-translation. I've gotten a lot more non-English posts in my feed because of it now that there's no language-based filters needing them to be from someone I follow. It might be that causing an increase in non-Japanese posts for you

正確にいうと日本人イラストレーターの絵が流れてこない…海外の方はかなり流れてくる なんかあるのかな？

NEED

@Stitch36085020 @ThiccWithaQ That doesn't entirely work because the artist has to also trust the client not to then just refund it once they get their commission delivered

@ThiccWithaQ The trick is to pay with paypal and insist upon a hard deadline under 180 days. This conveniently allows you to make full use of paypal's customer protection program to get your money back if your artist turns out to be a scammer.

Payer d’avance pour une commission est normal et je l’autorise (occasionnellement, seulement quand le client me demande et ils sont quelqu’un que je connais très bien) mais il me faut un niveau de confiance insensé pour le faire quand je commande d'autres, surtout s'ils sont nouveaux, tu sais? Un grand respect à les gens qui peuvent le faire facilement et ainsi aider les artistes nouveaux à grandir (développer?) une clientèle.

@ThiccWithaQ I use Vgen so it hasn't really been an issue there. I have to pay a % to Vgen, but there's a bit of guarentee through them, especially for a verified artist. You can banned for scamming someone, and VGen enforces refunds for not completing it in under a month

A very, very shy, very, very tall moose. Debating whether or not to give her a background

@maoxiaoqi1214 @Yatomomin I see. Thank you. I didn't see their other tweet

@Tasytot @Yatomomin 看到老师发的下一条推文了：虽然还有更多，但先摘录一下今后可能会高频绘制的CP以及正在准备新作或续篇的孩子们

創作男女が増えてきたので見分けをつけるためキャラ表作りました(⭐︎マークは漫画作品配信中)

@NingenGokko24 I used to use both Paypal and Venmo (client preferences) before I moved to VGen. Vgen I still pay the Paypal fees when customers choose that instead of card. It's unfortunate, but I write off the payment fees on my taxes at least

I wonder how artists receive payments for personal commissions (no proper contract ones). I was using Paypal but the cost (processing fees, FX rates) is quite heavy...

@Nefereeta @NingenGokko24 VGen charges a payment fee for both Paypal and card payments. It's lower than Paypal's, but you have to pay both fees if the customer chooses to use Paypal (most mine do. I think it's only one every 6-8 commissions that use card instead of Paypal for me)

@NingenGokko24 besides from paypal, I used v-gen which accept payment using card. it also have fee, but most people told me it's not as big as paypal
