Idk if I should start do commisions with real money yet or to just do btb commisions..
Something is telling me my work isnt "advanced" enough to do it but then again i feel like its worth it since I spend a lot of time and resources into my work and btb really isn't benefiting me as I dont really use them for anything lol
I'm just afraid that if I start commissioning again nobody would want anything :|
So btb commisions are more reasonable i guess but i really want to start $ commisions AAHH much confused! XD
Any opinions or tips? And if I did start commisions would you buy it (btb or $)?

Here are most of the examples of my work X
And of course my stuff would look a lot better once I start commissions haha
Thank you fwiends!!!
 
I would start with BTB just to kinda get used to the whole commission thing and get more recognition.
Then I would move on to rlc
 
Post samples and example "feeler" prices. I know I would rather pay RLC, because I know the struggles of an artist, but, I am an adult, with a job...so if you only do RLC, you will loose out on 3/4 of your potential customers here.

It would help to know what your style and types of art are.
 
You could always do both, state the price in tbt and rlc and let the buyer choose?
 
Open up both. Create a limited amount of slots for TBT and a more slots for RLC and state that the latter takes priority over TBT slots.
 
Depends on what style you're offering for either rlc or Tbt.
Usually people here will price check art base off "hour completion" than the the usual quality/quantity duo.

I suggest to practice more if you're looking for rlc offers. Most people here are kids with no jobs or adults who aren't even artist collectors so keep that in mind.
 
Thank you everyone! I think I'm just gonna start off with tbt now and see how that goes :)
How much tbt do you think would be reasonable (ik there are like different categories like bust, full body, etc) cause im really bad with prices lol
 
I'd buy that with btb but not rlc, as for the price, it depends on the piece.
 
i recommend doing both, just note note that most people here would probably pay with tbt. personally i would pay you in tbt but you also have certain pieces that i would pay rlc with, it just depends on what art style you plan on selling.
 
If you're opening a shop on this site, I'd say TBT. Many users here are too young or too broke to buy at for RLC, I never see many RLC shops do too good here
