Hi folks!

I'm new to this, but i'm looking for a way to earn some in game gold. So if you want some art of your character or anything else, feel free to ask me!

You can contact me in game: 'Friet met Ketchup'
On facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Mr.Grozyll
This is some facebook page i made to post some art (feel free to like it): https://www.facebook.com/Grozyllustrations
and i also have deviantart which is i'm not really active on tho.. : http://grozyll.deviantart.com/

I don't know the average price of these commissions, but I guess that can be arranged!

Anyway, i can't wait for you guys to contact me!

2 hours and 32 minutes,and the whole guru has looked at this thread?

I would stop spamming your own thread, the mods might get a bit irritated.

edit is a great feature

i do think everything i posted had some sort of character in it... i don't know what you mean. And yes maybe i should sketch my character. I already did it tho, but i'm afraid i lost it..

You have a demon looking guy, a non-demon looking guy with horns and a bird perched on them and a pin-up looking poster with nurse girls. None of those are really fantasy or guild-wars related. I personally like to see other related artwork before I request anything.

Also if you'd put some more effort into your thread people might be interested, you should also read the Opening Commission Threads & look into using prefixes (I added it for you this time).

Looking at your art, you seem to have a pretty detailed, painterly style...I would suggest something like 50k for busts/portraits, and 100k+ for full body pictures. With backgrounds, you could probably go even higher.

When it comes to getting commissions, it will probably take a few days to generate interest. Examples of previous commissions usually make things go faster. Examples of your own characters would work too.

Agreed with Sierraa and Nikhera.. I like your style but I'm not sure how well it would go with my characters (which are all female and more on the cute side of the cute<-->sexy spectrum) ... I would possibly be interested in a commission, but pricing is a big question mark right now. How many hours of work does it take you to finish a painting? I generally price based on 50% end product and 50% time spent.

If you want to start 'making money' right away without working on sample pictures first, I would be interested in a greyscale bust painting of one of my mesmer for 20k. I hope you aren't offended by the price. The reason it is so low is because I don't know what to expect yet. If it turns out well I will definitely tip.

- Please do NOT draw her with large boobs, curves, etc! She is not supposed to be alluring.
- If it helps, think of her as an assassin wearing mesmer clothing.

Wow, that looks awesome^^
If you don't mind I'd like a portrait like that myself for my necro

It might work to promote your thread a bit as well, eh

Here are some pictures:

http://i51.tinypic.com/16h9glg.jpg
http://i56.tinypic.com/21jqavc.jpg

Seeing as she's a necro, I want her to look a bit more gloomish/sad/lonely.
Greyscale or color I leave to you... whichever looks better (I'm by no means an artist, so I trust your judgement^^). As for payment, I'd gladly pay 50k (cash or ecto)

Edit: forgot to post my IGN >< Drow Ze

http://puu.sh/dmsK Oh my goodness, that was incredibly fast - and I love it! When I find you ingame I will be paying quite a bit more than 20k.

Do you have a photobucket account? Unless the full version is over 1MB, you should be able to upload it on there and just send me the URL.
p.s. do you have a version without the butterflies? I may consider using this for an avatar/display in the future...

drowze's Necro looks aawesome too. I think you passed the GW-related art samples test! lol

I like the papery texture, and your painting style actually fits the concept art really well!

Hey

your stuff looks great, I'd love to get a piece!
Here's my char Eryn, it has a little bio and character description and pictures and stuff, and my DA page also has a favourites folder with other people's art of her (here)

I'll give you all the freedom to interpret her. Will pay at least 50k for something with wings, hit me if you got questions!

Awesome pose and lighting on the assassin pic. Do you always start with greyscale and then convert to color, or do you start out in color?
