Free Art, Could it BE!? by dice

I've made my decision, and actually ended with three different characters to draw! :) Please continue to enter, however, as I may like to do one more, especially another female or a feral character! Thanks!

Hi guys!

I'm coming to you all today with a really rare, really exciting offer!

As many of you know I am recently unemployed. I have been trying to get some commissions so I can have a little bit of income during this time- I figure, since I'm free all day, why not! Well, I have been having a hard time getting any work- I've had a couple of takers (thanks guys!) but certainly not enough to really help me in any great way, sadly! I've even lowered my prices a great deal to make my work more appealing to more customers. Unfortunately, having left FA recently, I also lost a great chunk of my watchers and audience, so I'm looking to bring in more folks to weasyl, and just in general to get an interest in my work.

In addition to this, I've been working on getting some examples prepared for my work, so that it gives clients a very easy way to see what they get for what price range. Right now, I have one piece in the works, but I wanted to have a couple that show off not only what price range is what, but also what they can expect when ordering a feral, an anthro, etc.

So here's the thing- I need some volunteers that would like to have their character drawn in a full on illustration, at my whim. There is, of course, a catch though! Another big reason I would like to do this is to get EXPOSURE! To get my name out there and have folks saying "you should commission this person!" It won't do me much good to do a free piece for someone who doesn't interact with the community, who doesn't have a lot of watchers, etc. Yes, it certainly is a bit self serving, sure... but I'm trying to find some form of income here, so I have to do what is going to be best for me to get my name out there!

So the criteria to get some artwork from me for free in this case will be...

  • You must have an active presence on one or more furry website(s), where you share commissions that you receive, and have a good number of watchers that are active- by a good number, I'm talking over 2k. On FA, I myself had almost 1500 watchers, and very few were terribly active! I mention this just so that if you only really have 200~ watchers, I'm not going to be interested, sorry!

  • You must have reference images of your character(s), and an idea for an image.

  • You must be willing to post the completed artwork to your gallery, with a link back to myself, so as to share my presence here on weasyl with more people.

  • You must be willing to defer to me in terms of artistic direction on the image, and what I feel will look the best- I want to make sure that these examples look good and represent what I feel is my skill level and understanding of anatomy, color theory, and so on.

If you think you might fit this profile, please email me at dicefuzzart@gmail.com with links to your profiles on furry sites, reference images of 1 - 3 characters and an idea for a 1 - 3 character image. In this case, I will not be accepting porn or fetish themed ideas. Nudity is fine, however. Additionally, these characters can be feral, anthro, or standard taur (anthropomorphic torso, attached to a feral body with four legs.... nothing extreme). Any species is fine, other than invertibrates/bugs/arthropods/whatever you want to call them.

Also, please feel free to link folks to this who you think may be interested. :)

    No bugs? Bummer...

      Sadly! I do like drawing them, but I'm looking for something that will appeal to a wide audience and show things I'm more often commissioned to do. :)

    I sent you an email for a chance. Hope things start getting better for you.

    Looks like I'm not active enough to get one :( Only have almost 500 watches on FA. I do visit French furry boards from times to times, but I'm more active on plurk (Twitter-like website where all of the taiwanese furries are). Not posting enough on occidental boards I guess...
    Hope you'll get your 3 slots filled though. If you don't I'm here, I'll be able to advertise you, but as you say, not sure a lot of people will see it.

    Out of curiosity, are you still looking to get this going? For the sake of this being "free," I'd love to help you out with a tip too but also possibly donate the slot to a friend of mine while still posting it for exposure. Lemme know! :)

      I may still do more, I have three thus far that I've chosen (one of which completed), but do feel free to email me! :)
