keep in contact with the people you draw for while in the process of doing it. Stream for them. doing good work and being out there should help.

From what I hear here, you have to get your face on as many communities as possiple, with multiple personas as necessary (each with a portifolio) so not to stain your own image in the eyes of different audiences you wish to pander for.

It's not really begging, though.

Here's a trick you can use. Post finished work and add a comment about it being a commission.

Is that your work anon?

I don't see the problem with asking if they want more OP. I just say be as much a part of the community as possible if you want people to keep approaching you, maybe stream etc. Having multiple places you post helps as far as steady income.
Also is that your work genuinely curious to your blog.

Sexy enough for you?

Do you say anywhere that you do commissions?

Post a "commissions open" sheet with examples of work and prices, mention on your profile you're open for commissions, etc. Tell them exactly how to get in touch with you. Sometimes people just need a nudge.

If you don't do that, you put the onus on them to ask you if you do commissions, most people will just find someone they know do them and know the rates of. Make it easy for them.
