Talking Comissions by Lydia Starbreeze

My name is Lydia. I recently acquired a guild quite by accident and realized i need some money to keep it running. So I decided to start my own comission thread and draw your female characters. Oh yes, and i love criticism, feel free to critic my work.

>>I draw in Pencil with Light Shading, scan it, then touch it up in Photoshop. Examples can be found here: http://strbrz.deviantart.com/


>>Generally i don't add backgrounds, to me it makes a perfectly nice drawing look really cluttered...but a little extra money might help convince me otherwise *wink wink*

>>Price: I'm not sure what i should charge but i was thinking 10k for a Pencil Drawing and 20k if you want a background (I hope that convinces people not to ask for a background). If you want more than one char in your drawing add 5k for each additional char. Pets are 2k.

>>Asking for commissions: Please post Your Request, your Character's Name, and screenshots of the Front, Back, and Both Side Views, and Preferable the sort of pose you would like. . I only draw female characters. If you ask me to draw a male character then you can expect him to look like a female with short hair. I really can't draw guys unless it's by accident. lol. I take two commissions at a time, just post and I'll update up here who I am currently working on.

>>Paying: Contact me InGame to pay, my main characters are Melani Rose and Lydia Starbreeze. I'm usually online from around 7pm to 10pm (GMT -8) and on good days, as late as 11pm. If you feel your finished comission does not meet your expectations just give me what you think it is worth.

Commissions I'm Currently Working On
I'm no longer accepting commissions because school starts next week for me and i doubt I'll have time to draw much. Sorry

Finished Commissions

Just a word of advice: 20k isn't going to deter people from backgrounds. People have had contests where the prizes all up are worth 600k+, just for the sake of character art.

Hi and welcome to Nolani

I would love a commission. My character's name is Dont Mess Withme. If possible, I'd like my pet in it as well, Chicken Wing. I'll leave the rest up to you. If you have any questions, please PM me here. Oh, and no background is fine.

Thanks!!

Thanks !

I'm not here for a commission, just wanted to say that your art is very good and that you should seriously consider buying a scanner and a photo-editing/colouring program like Adobe Photoshop! You make great art allready, it's just that I think playing around with your art digitally could make it even better. You have some serious potential to grow a lot!

thank you very much i do have photoshop, just a very old version given to me by a friend. lol. i dont use it much tho because using it with a mouse is very tiring for my poor hands but i am saving all my pennies for a Bamboo computer tablet so someday i might be able to work with my drawings a bit more.

Well, this certainly looks very nice! I wish you had posted here sooner, so I could have pointed you to my art contest xD
But I'm certainly bookmarking this thread. I'm currently bankrupt with the prize money for my contest being pretty high ^^ but I might want a commission next month or so, when the next Xunlai House rewards are in... You draw really cute. I like the faces a lot! I'm curious to see how these would look like coloured in with photoshop...

Just wondering, would you be interested in perhaps doing 2 chars for me (on one drawing)? I would still pay you 10k per char though of course.
