WARNING: NOT A COMMISION THREAD YET

Heya, I'm Starseeker, platinum addict and comeback (digital) artist.

So, since I'm always in need of money and I saw that there were commission threads here, I figured I'd take a look. I'm not sure if I really wanna start commissions again though, because:
- I've only just begun drawing again. I haven't seriously drawn for about 2 years now, due to life and lack of inspiration;
- I've never done GW art before;
- I'm no professional artist, I just draw as a hobby.

So, what I wanted to know is basically wether there is enough interest, what prices I could charge, and just how the art community here in general is.

Next up: my art. Like I said, I just made a comeback from my 'break'. What I do: sketch/draw stuff with HB pencis (yes, exclusively HB), scan it in, and possibly colour it in Photoshop. You know the drill.

My style is rather crisp, fat lines, a soft look with some hard shades mixed in. Like I said before, I'm doing it as a hobby, so sometimes (if not usually xD) the anatomy and such can be wonky. Next to that, I've done some vectors and cut-style before, but I'll have to see if I do that (if there's enough interest).

So, here are some examples, with (RECOMMENDED) behind the ones I like:

Normal work, before my break (so all done 2 years ago)
One with quick background, cartoonish (RECOMMENDED):

One without background, weird arm anatomy (RECOMMENDED):

Really old one ('04), anthro, crappy lines, done for a comic book thing (RECOMMENDED):

Anthro, no background:

Anthro, bust, lineless, no background:

Vector, before break
Vector done of Jimmy Urine:

Graphite work, before break
Graphite of one of the works shown above, finished during break (RECOMMENDED):

Okay, that's that. Hope to hear from you guys!

You should First do some painting at gw and show those, so people see how you can draw Guildwars world. then the cash you would gain can be told better.

Okay, I'll see what I can do.

I think StarSeeker is a pro at drawing and he shouldn't lie about doing it just for a hobby.
