Is there any way to make easily get freelance work drawing for a living that doesn't include asking for commissions on tumblr?

I don't have much of a following, but I desperately need money. I want to just draw some shit for people or something.

Be good, now post work or delete the thread

Freelance means you can do anything anon

If you want to draw stuff for people though, you should figure out what kind of stuff you want to draw.
>>
>>2877857
Draw high quality drawings and such a lot and post it in Facebook and other social media. Do really good work and show it around your town. Let cafes and places sell it for a commission and leave a business card that says affordable portaits and landscapes ect.

Figure out what people want and make samples of it, people will just come to you.

my anatomy is fucked, i know, I just want to know if I can possibly somehow get a job. All I've drawn is fuckin titties and idk how I could get a freelance job fucking ANYWHERE. I don't care if I have to draw trees and landscapes I just need the work.
>>
>>2877897
This is really good. You post often on social media? Particularly of stuff that you enjoy drawing? Or are you one of those weirdos who don't know what they want to draw so they aren't specialized in anything.
>>
>>2877897
Freelance work, nah
But you do look like you would get decent money from porn comissions

thanks, and no not really. I am really inconsistent about posting on tumblr, and I only have about 300 followers on there since I made it a year ago, almost 200 came in the past like 4 months, so I think those are still active. I post on deviant art and only have 11 followers, I guess people don't go there as much.

I enjoy drawing nsfw shit, but will draw whatever I need to. I haven't drawn anything else but I think I'm a fast learner so I could do it. I can't post this stuff in a portfolio I don't think. I will have to make some new shit or something.

If I make a portfolio in the next week or so, could I post it on freelance sites and get work? I don't know how reliable that is. I'm at the point where I will sell shit for nickels. 2 people have approached me for porn commissions a while ago, but at the time I didn't really need money so I said I don't do that yet. Do you think I'd be able to get like 5 commissions or so for like $30? I don't know how much people are willing to pay. I know big artists do it for like 60-80 bucks.

Posters for advertisment, - Memorial portraiture for bereavement, - Drawings of people and their pets, - Babies, for new parents and Grands, - Sexy pin-ups for romantic souls.

I worked in advertising and produced one poster every week for over five years and recieved a comfortable pay check.

I suggest go into business for yourself, incorporate and market yourself. Produce the highest quality hyperrealism, the more photorealistic your art is, the better.

For example: Thomas Arvid is known as America's Preeminent Painter of Wine, which has given him a handsome living and galleries hungry to show and sell his work. Arvid was born March 24, 1964 (age 52 years), Detroit, MI, and currently lives in Atlanta, GA and supports a wife and children with his art.

Thomas is credited with launching the photorealistic art trend with his compositions that feature wine. He is the head Thomas Arvid Fine Art, Inc.,

>big artists
>dirt fucking cheap

I'm not even sure where to begin with this...

Charge more. Focus on one thing and market yourself as that thing. Brand yourself.

Cold email people and offer services. Work cheaper AT FIRST if it'll help land a long-term client. But charge way fucking more than 80 bucks a pop
>>
>>2878352
I'm just talking for porn commissions.
>>
>>2878392
I still kinda feel like you could charge more than 60-80... maybe I'm wrong but that seems disgustingly cheap for any piece of art.

If a realist painting could sell for $2-4k(or more) then why couldn't a porn commission sell for at least $200?

Most popular porn artists usually charge around $100-150 at the most.

This guy who's pretty popular charges 45 bucks for just a sketch. I don't think I could charge more than that for full color at my level. Takes me about 4 hours to make something that's full color, so that's about 11 bucks an hour if I charge 45 bucks.

I understand that people will pay thousands for a painting to hang up but these people who hire porn artists probably don't even have jobs.

This one is for Norasuko, an even more popular artist. He makes like 3000 a month just from patreon. and he's got fuckloads of followers. I only have 300.

Prices
Full Color:
Base Price: USD$120 (single character, no background)
+$25 For a simple general background
+$50 For a specifically complex background*
+$50 For each extra character**

So the price for a full color standard scene (2 characters + background would be between $175 and $225.

Sketch:
Base Price: USD$60 (Black and white)
+$20 For colors
+$20 For background
+$20 For each extra character

No you can't. Get a job and practice in your freetime until you can charge more than that.

i don't even know why i put "for a living". I guess it's because of the amount of money I need to make in this short amount of time. I need like 600 bucks in 2 weeks. I am selling shit, looking up freelance content mill writing jobs, and now trying to see if theres any market for hiring shitty artists for shit money. i wasn't willing to draw tits for pennies but i guess now i am.
