I think that would be okay. Seeing your calibre of work.

I don't get paid till the iphone apps i'm working on hit the app stores :(

I don't get paid because all the people who bought from me lost there jobs somehow. My drawings are bad luck.

You should get into the habit of pushing the price detlef, as freelance work can become scarce. If you start off extremely high and get it lowered to medium, you get more then starting low and getting paid low.

Be like "well normally I ask $110 per page but for you... $55" and they'll be all "WHERES MY WALLET GOD DAMN"

Will someone please help me, i have a project in visual arts where i have to draw something including all of the principles of art, but i can't think of anything. I was going to do some minecraft thing but that's getting kind of old, plus no one in school would get the reference.

Her eyes are way too big. Her jaw is way too pointy. There's no lighting source. The lighting looks like it's coming from the right and so I mistook her cheek hollow for makeup. The proportions are also really off. I was kinda wondering why your drawings looked kinda nice, yet bad, then I realized you were drawing from a reference and wondered how you managed to screw them up like that.

[QUOTE=Autumn;28898867]good luck for a career in graphic design if that's your outlook.

It's just been some small hobby thing on the side. And at least you can work at school. I can't do jack shit whilst at work.

no. a good artist knows when to stop working on something [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] thinking that something is never finished is but a trap that many artists fall into.

Not stopping and adding it all sorts of details will just shit up your drawing, like my fur. It's more than needed and just looks like shit. Thinking that there is always some improvements that can be done is a whole other thing. It could always be changed a bit, the shape could be a bit different, the composition could be altered a bit, maybe a different hue on that part, etc etc. That's something that will usually help it become cleaner and better instead of more detailed and shitty.

It's a stylized version of a portrait of Alice. She's a major smackhead and a lead singer, so i figured overaccenting her features would be a nice idea. Since it's MY version, your criticisms are unnecessary, unles i actually said ITS PHOTOREALISTIC OF THIS PHOTO RIGHT HERE. Have you even seen the girl? She looks like skeletor. Main part i was going for was shading on her jacket which i think i pulled of rather well.

iITS MY STYLEEEEEE
