Hi all :3 Glissant's wife here. Let me start by saying that it's very nice to finally be on here after glancing over at my hubby's screen and seeing glimpses of this site, as well as hearing all about you guys and all the different keycaps/keyboards/stuffthathewantstobuy etcetc. And of course all the curious packages that have come to our house for him have been rather exciting too. I don't get mail often, so it's been a nice change ^^ Anyway, I've tried to become a part of Glissant's hobby as best I can, by doing some doodles or helping him with the giveaway, just to show that I really support him and his interests as well as your lovely community :3 It's been very nice to see that people have really appreciated the small doodles I've done for them, and also a great feeling that I could do something a little extra for you guys. I hadn't expected so many people to like what I did!
So anyway, as life tends to happen, I've decided to put my art up for sale. I'm a pharmacy student, and with fall semester only a week away now, I know that book fees are going to be horribly high. Lab books alone often go for $200+ -_-; After tuition, that doesn't leave much for me to be able to cover most books I need for my classes.
Seeing how I got such positive feedback on the avatars I made for a few users, I want to start making more avatars/signatures (and possibly other art pieces) for a small fee. These are made using prismacolor pencils, prismacolor ink pens (for B&W avvies), prismacolor colored pencils and gel pen (for colored avvies). They can include anything you ask, whether its a chibi version of you, or your pet, a loved one, keycaps you'd envision/concept art of keycaps, or something totally unrelated. You can use them on this forum or any other place you wish ^^
(For examples of these, and other artwork, please stay tuned for my followup post which will include scans from my sketchbook, as well as select pieces from my deviantart )Now the question I ask is, what would you guys find to be a fair price for these? What would you pay for a black and white avatar, a colored avatar, a larger scale piece? I am open to suggestions, because really I've never had to put a value on my art until now (hard times T-T)
I look forward to all your suggestions and comments and really appreciate your interest if you do indeed want one of my pieces <3
--------
Alright! Without further ado, here is a refined list of pricing according to piece, size, color etc!When ordering a piece, please make sure to PM me with: Content, color, and size, so I may price it accordingly and ensure that you get exactly what you want :3
These will be done using a Wacom tablet.
These can be of whatever you wish, to use on GH or any other website
They will be made in a standard 4x4" size, unless you specifically request a larger size which will bump up the price.
BW: $20 (This will include B&W shading and inking)
Color: $30 (A variety of colors and shades)
**These are base prices. This is what you'd pay for something simple, eg. a chibi of you, a pic of your pet doing something cute, etc. For more complex things (you riding a unicorn lol) there will be an increase depending on how many hours it takes me to finish.
Signatures The same concept as avatars. You can request whatever you'd like. I will be adjusting the size accordingly, as I realize these will be lying flat rather than square.
*Same Pricing as Avatars
Other If you want a drawing that's not included in the first two categories, please PM me and try to be as specific as possible.
For example, you want a birthday card front design for someone- tell me you want a birthday card front, the size you want it to be, the content, text included etc.
From this we can work out a price ^^
Note: Please only PM me if you're a serious buyer. It really ticks me off when people ask for something, and when I finish it they don't pay or reply to any PMs, especially when I see you have been online. These take me time and effort and for you to be so disrespectful towards that is ridiculous. If you have some money issue suddenly, message me about it. And please don't lie. You're on a forum where it's easy to see what you post, so if you're telling me you're broke or have bills but I see you buying in other threads, I will know you are lying. I will not be kind if I have to chase you down because you owe me payment. I encourage everyone who makes an order to not be shy. If you don't like something, make sure you let me know! I can't fix it otherwise. I won't be offended, unless ofc you are completely rude about it.
Thank you all for your wonderful support :3 I really look forward to working with all of you, and am very appreciative for those of you who are helping me fund my schooling. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me
