Thank you!!! <3 <3
I am actually thinking about that a lot more often, and I'm going to probably set things up later this year for that. I need to start working on building a portfolio first, since most of my finished pieces now are fanart. I don't think it's legal to make money off of fanart, so I don't won't to advertise fanart commissions in my portfolio. I can include a few, sure, to show off my skill development, but I mainly want to draw fantasy creatures and characters. So I have that to do first. But after that I'll officially get started with commissions! <3
I'll be sure to link my portfolio when it's gets a fair amount of drawings in it, probably in fall somewhere. And then I'll definitely tell you guys when I start commissions. I think the rough part will be when I have to transition from drawing for free, to actually doing paid requests. It'll be sad to close the thread, and I'm just worried because some of you guys got drawings for free, but the rest will have to pay from that point on. I guess I'm just nervous about how you guys will react to that.
I've been thinking, maybe when I do commissions, I'll draw the request, but then I'll also ship the physical version to them too if they pay a bit more. In like a frame or something. And maybe I can also send a letter with it. I think that'll be cute.
