Please help me with RLC pricing and Critique

[flutterstheunicorn]

I've been thinking about getting a PayPal and opening RLC commissions, but I don't know how the prices would go.

Here is my gallery, for anyone wanting examples. The two styles I have currently are flat and shaded chibis.

If anyone has any advice or critique, please tell me!

EDIT: Attempt at fixing things in critique!

i personally think you should practice a little more before selling, but don't let me stop you! right now, maybe $3?

In my own opinion, I wouldn't do the eyes like in this one: http://sta.sh/0l3xdb99khx (try making them more complex, like in some of your others!)
I also wouldn't bring them down so far on the face. That might be a stylistic choice, but it doesn't personally appeal to me.
I would say that this one is your best one: http://sta.sh/026xa3oh7u3h
That's because the eyes are far enough apart (although they could be farther up), that body size looks best in comparison to the head, and the hair is very well done.

the eyes look a little too low on the head, It's probably like that on purpose but even then its too low. Just slightly higher up would look better

the shading needs a lot of work as well but other than that its looking gr8 ^^;

No offence, but personally your art isn't good enough for RLC.
In my opinion it just looks amateurish... I did stuff like that when I was 10. Sorry, just saying.

Spoiler: Critique

You have this style where you either like it or you don't...I don't know. Personally you should add more shading, make them a bit more realistic with highlights,shadows, etc. Sorry, I'm not a fan of it, but I know you can keep improving and become the chili art master! ;u;

How long have you been drawing?
Honestly, I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, and even my best, imo, drawings:

Even I feel SUPER freaking bad for selling them for rlc.
I'd say practice a little bit more<3
You'll totally get there, I know it!

I feel that if you aren't going to answer the OP's thread correctly, then you shouldn't post at all. It's just unnecessary.

That aside, the eyes are a bit low on the head and should be brought up a bit more. And your shading needs a bit of work. But I feel that if you practice more, you'll definitely improve (as goes with all skills in life) and get the hang of it, even just a little bit. Just try looking at tutorials on DeviantART and try going based off of those.

I'd say around $3 for RLC right now.
