hey there!! i’m looking to do some hopeful art trades on here if anybody is interested! i’ve been trying to get out of my comfort zone lately with art in order to improve and mess around with my current style. i joined here only recently and i figured that this would also be a good way to work myself into the community ^^ so please do post here with your characters! i would love to see them and hopefully get some work of them out!
i DO want to state a couple notes first regarding my trades, however:
- while my side of the trade WILL be a finished art piece (lines, color, and more than likely shading), they will most likely be more of what i personally consider to be sketches. so basically, the lines may be a little messy, but not unidentifiable! there will be color, but not absolutely perfect; for instance, there may be spots where the color is loosely outside of the lines. lastly, while i most likely will add shading to your piece, it will be loose, messier shading. do note that i WILL still be putting a lot of effort into a piece!! please do not take this as a rushed drawing ^^ i will be sure to post full well examples of what i personally count as a sketch.
- i WILL do full drawings upon request as opposed to sketches, though i do require that you fully mirror the amount of effort put into your own work. i mean no offense by it, but doing fully finished, clean, complete drawings takes it out of me. i rarely even draw them for my own, personal art. if you are not going to put forth similar effort into your work, you will only receive a sketch.
- i do require you post proof of your end before i fully finish my end. usually i will begin a sketch of the character from the moment i receive it, but i will not clean, color, or shade it until proof of your half is provided (whether it be finished or a relative wip). apologies, but i’ve been scammed many times and don’t want to tolerate it anymore ^^
things that i WILL draw!!
- feral characters. these are what i am most comfortable drawing and will likely be higher quality, just because it is in my comfort zone.
- anthropomorphic characters. i am opening trades to get out of my comfort zone, and so i will be taking some offers on anthro/furry characters. keep in mind they might look a little rougher since i am still not too great at drawing them.
- most animals! i draw more animals than i don’t, and will likely give anything you offer me a shot. if i genuinely can not draw your character, i will let you know and either a.) you can offer me a new one or b.) simply, and apologetically, have me end the trade.
- b///d and g/re- may not be the best and may not be able to do this in excess, but i have no issue incorporating it into work!
things that i MAY draw!!
- nsfw,,,,, it’s not that i don’t wanna draw your sexy characters, it’s just that i‘ve literally tried drawing it for myself but have issues making it look good. i do not want to put out anything that i do not feel is as good as i can do. while i may give your characters a shot, i can not promise that i will carry through with it if it causes me too much discontent.
- extremely complex designs. i LOVE a nice, complex design!! but if the design is extremely complex and either causes me to a.) spend a much, much longer time on it than any other piece or b.) feel so dissatisfied with the result to the point i do not want to put it out, i will either ask for a.) mirrored effort on your own piece, similar to a fully finished work opposed to a sketch, or b.) simply, and apologetically, have me end the trade.
- two characters interacting. i am not very good at making characters interact in one piece ASCFNDFRTIU but i am trying to push from my comfort zone so i MAY try these, but if i cannot make it work, well, you know the drill by now. ALSO: make sure to read my conditions on multiple characters below.
things i WILL NOT draw!!
- humans. sorry, but i do not at all feel confident enough in my human ability to put these out to others. even pushing my comfort zone like i am, they just refuse to settle right into my style.
- heavy mech. light mech is alright, but full on,,,,? no. sorry.
- uhhhhh tbh i know there’s more i will not do but can’t think of off the top of my head.... tbh if you’re curious, just ask and ill let you know if i will do it or not!
- detailed backgrounds. take way too long and im not good at them HAH
things i WILL draw but ONLY on condition!!
- fully finished pieces (see above).
- multiple characters. if you want multiple characters in your piece from me, i expect a.) a matching amount of multiple characters OR matching amount of separate pieces in yours. i’m not going to draw two characters for you if you only draw one in return for me. i MAY, however, make exceptions for this in terms of the quality and detail in your own work.
EXAMPLES!
(would be colored, but simply an anthro/furry concept.)
(this one is kind of in between sketch and full but it took me a while SO)
you CAN ask for multiple trades!! if you want to, at least.
additional note: PLEASE, PLEASE understand that i spend almost all of my time balancing school and work. i do not always have the time to work on art immediately. in addition, it often takes a a good amount of time to sit down and finish a piece i am content with. if your work takes a bit to finish, i truly apologize. but if i promised a piece for you, i will finish it as long as i too receive my piece in return. i will go almost in order of replies: i will start poster 1 before poster 2, but poster 2’s half may be finished before poster 1 if poster 2 finishes my piece before poster 1. drawing one of my characters BEFORE i can accept and approve your trade will not promise something in return, so please try not to do this,,, for example, you draw my character before you even request yours from me, and then your character ends up falling in a category that i will not draw..... and i do not want to be accused of stealing.
