I mentioned I have no tablet at the moment, which has the obvious consequence of there being no piccage*. So. I have the following problem: I need to purchase a Wacom tablet (haven't decided on the specifics yet), but have no money. The solution I had in mind is such: I can offer express commissions. This means I will be offering coloured sketches (I will have examples ready later today, tomorrow at the latest example below), at $10 (up to two characters with minimal background).

Question #1 is: would anyone be willing to support a poor artist?

Question #2 (this for the artist types): is it better to get an Intuos3 A6, or Graphire A5 (my old tablet is A5)? Opinion? Anyone?

* Long story short: my old tablet + a Mac = hardware error. Since I'm temporarily at home, I have the option of connecting it to a PC which does have Photoshop. The problem is, I am not sure about how long will I be home (though I won't be leaving any sooner than August), so it is important that I have a tablet that works. For me. And, I'm hoping, for you too.




info:

For everyone interested: email me at jhkrupa [at] gmail [dot] com with details.

Most of you know what I do (if you don't, see posts with the "art" tags). Additionally, I have confidence that I can do a good sketch of just about anything (although obviously live action fandoms require a little leeway) so do not feel limited to my usual fandoms/pairings.

edit:
As I mentioned, I did manage to aquire a new tablet, but it's not fully paid off yet. Meaning, the commissions are still open, but I'm not taking any more requests at the moment. Once I'm finished with the ones I accepted so far, I will take on an extra batch, I don't know how many. A few people made reservations already, yay! I will post an announcement then.

I'd love to commission you. Are there any limits on the pairings/ fandoms you'll draw?

No, no limits. I have faith in my ability to sketch most anything (although I will ask for reference and a little leeway in the case of live action fandoms).

Yay, great! I have no live action fandoms so no worries there. Should I email you then?

Hells yeah! I wouldn't mind supporting a fellow fangirl in her time of need!

I would be up for a commission, if you'd be willing to do it for me. Let me know ASAP whether or not you'd want to do it, so I can tell you the scene that I have in my mind. It's a good one. *winks at you*

Ten dollars is a good fetching price for it too. ^______^ Just get back to me! *hugs*

Isn't it adorable? It was from RFB's post a while back that had some pictures from Vol 8 of Reload. I'll send them the email regarding the commission. ^_____^

Unfortunately, I think PayPal might be the only option from my end (me being in Poland). But I would be willing to work something out, later on.

Hmmmm...get a great piece of art and help enable [personal profile] keire_ke post some more piccage...seems like a no brainer to me. Sure, I'll support you! Just be warned, I have ulterior motives (see: "more piccage" part above). XD

I'll e-mail you tomorrow morning with the specifics.

From one poor fangirl to another I have one payment about to go to you, but i need your paypal address to send it

If you want to do any sketches for the other patterns at the same deal (1/2) I'm more than happy

also I was wondering if I could commission a banner for Seraphim Knits
something with an angel knitting, but a me angel, so halo skew wiffy, cup of coffee, tongue out of corner of mouth - a chibi in black and white
let me know how much

I'll do a pimp for you

My PayPal address is my gmail account (listed in this post). Yay! Congratulations! Yes, I do want to - I have two more sketches ready to be scanned. I'll be sending them ASAP.

Yeah, I can do that - depending on how elaborate you want the picture to be, but from what you said ~$10.

Thanks for pimping!

[livejournal.com profile] seraphim_grace told me all about this, and since I don't have paypal, I'll send the money to her and she'll pay you via paypal. So consider you have a commission from me *smiles*

Let me know if that's okay, then I'll email you with details of the commission.

*hugs*

I can certainly work with that. *nods* Would you like something like a scene, a character sketch, girls boys, sci-fi, fantasy-ish?

honey, you know I'm doing the [livejournal.com profile] weiss_novella competition, well I need some artists who are available around february

more or less I'm running around collecting the names of people who might be interested to put up as an option
and i wanted to know if you want to play
I need to know any restrictions you might have and how much you would charge for a full piece
if you don't want to - let me know

Around February shouldn't be a problem at all. So yeah, sign me up!

I don't do explicit stuff, that's pretty much it. Unless I'm forgetting something. *thinks*

^_____^ Sure. I'm bad at the managing business, so I'll probably never get around to posting a proper notice. I'm really busy at the moment though, but I'll probably have some time in June, if that's okay with you.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I've been drowning in school stuff lately. Great! Just let me know when you're free.
