how to get 5$ art
there are some simple rules you have to follow to get art for 5$!

1- make sure your character design is not TOO complex. wings and stripes are all fine. hyper-detailed clothing and 1283123 piercings are probably not. when in doubt, solid colour clothing in the form of pants, shorts, cargo pants, jackets etc is for the best. torn cuffs and stuff are fine, but no like mandolorian combat armor. look at the pictures above. if your character is more complicated than those, you may find yourself being asked to pay a little more. in general you don't get to pick the pose. if you DO want to pick the pose, send me a little extra $ and i'll make it happen.

2- send me a note with your character's references. references can be either pictures someone else (or you) did of your character, or text describing what they look like. you can request a pose, but don't be disappointed if i draw them posed differently. after all, this is 5$ art. if you DESPERATELY want to see them in a certain pose, throw a few extra dollars my way with your payment and i'll make it happen for sure.

3- WAIT for me to approve your note. this will not take too long. this is important because I MIGHT TELL YOU NO. if you send the money before i approve you, i can also get confused about who paid me and who didn't!

4- send me payment. i will not draw 5$ art until i get paid! i prefer paypal (mine is CIAL at DEATHSTICKS dot ORG) but if you need to send payment via the postal service, that is okay. we can discuss the details via note. it just means you'll be waiting longer for your arts is all. if you live in massachusetts, please add 32 cents for sales tax!

5-settle in and wait for your art to be uploaded next week. 5$ art usually gets completed on monday, but may take til friday depending on real life stuff. it's a pretty fast turn around due to the fact that characters must be simple.

if you're interested, you know what to do! SEND ME A NOTE!
