The amount of "Hyper-Realistic" Commissions popping up in the FFXIV community that are v clearly AI paintovers is actually awful rn. Seeing a lot of it in rando discord servers and stuff. Research your commissoners before getting art done. Don't pay for AI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Don't trust sketch processes that look too similar to the final product/look traced over. -Demand to see many WIPs that show the process between rendering, not just flat colors then sudden renders. -Be wary of varying style changes & ability between sketch and final product.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Be careful out there! Don't pay for scammers!

What’s your render process? It’s so pretty ^.^

Hehe thank you!!!

I'll use an out-of-context Night drawing to share the process XD

So first I'll make my sketch, line art, and then my flat colors. A lot of the time, I'll add in some gradients and subtle glow at this stage just to add in some more color variation for when rendering comes around. I also dont draw in all the details yet — like the string that'll be around his brooch later or his face marks. Whatever I feel like will get in the way of the painting process and will be easier to add in later, i leave out for now.

Now the ✨️ugly portion.✨️ For the lighting and shading, I use a paint brush. For the shadows, I'll usually pick them from the wheel myself, rather than using a Multiply layer. Then, for the lights, I'll almost always use a nice bright orange color on a Luminosity layer (note that this is on Paint Tool Sai — the equivalent to Luminosity is an Add layer on most other programs) and slap those on where I think the lights go.

Shit's really messy at this point djejejwj but that doesn't matter toooo much. 80% of the drawing comes from the next step, the painting. It doesn't matter much if ur lights and shadows are messy rn cause it's gonna get all cleaned up anyway aha.

And now we're onto the painting, and this is the point where we merge everything down into one layer and start going ham :0. Usually, what I do is I take Paint Tool Sai's Water brush + Marker brush and start blending out all the colors and cleaning everything up. I color pick whatever part of the drawing I wanna clean up, then I'll blend it out and define the shapes until i feel satisfied with how it looks :DD this part of the drawing took around 2 to 3 hours maybe? Like I said, this is most of the drawing process aha

AND NOW THE BEST BIT, THE COLOR CORRECTION AND FINAL DETAILS !! This is where I make the glowy bits REALLY glow, and make the colors look a little more cohesive :0. Also, I up the contrast more, make them darks look darker and them lights look lighter >:D

And that's pretty much it, I think 🤔🤔 if there's anything anyone would like me to go into more detail with, I'm more than happy to answer :0 I like playing art teacher hehehehehe ❤️❤️✨️✨️

Hiya! Hope this message finds u well :3 I absolutely love your art; found you from insta! Quick question also; I’m not sure if you’ve answered this before, but which brushes do you use for ur digital art? I love the textures they’re so crunchy (endearing)!! Have a lovely day!! :D

hello!! here's a little brush tour ft. this half rendered martin.

also, a great app for ipad artists who really want to dig into texture is art set 4. i swear by it and i've been using it for about two years. none of my more recent art uses it, but that's just because i'm experimenting with my process rn

so here's a list of my most used brushes lately, and there will be links to all of them at the bottom of this post.

the two labeled "custom pencil" are both my own personal modified pencils (both sourced from the 6b pencil) but the narinder pencil and the vanilla 6b pencil are both very similar to them. i use these two for sketching and flat color specifically, and if you do specifically want these two brushes then i'd be happy to upload them somewhere for you to download, but they're not really necessary for texture

i also use G&B halftone brushes sometimes! but i greatly prefer the RSCO sample pack, and i cannot find the link to the G&B brushes no matter how hard i google, and pretty much any halftone brush set will do the same job

and here's what they look like in practice!

(i like to set these halftones to color burn. color burn is my most used blending mode, even for shading)

and then i hit "copy all," paste, and duplicate it. so you should have two layers of just your entire canvas. then import a paper texture

i'm partial to the set i'll link down below, my favorite is #5. you should absolutely check out the rest of the free texture packs on their website if you're wanting to diversify your texture process btw, all of their stuff is fantastic.

to use that texture, your layers should look like this!

on the layer set to the linear burn, i also like to go into the adjustments menu and bump up the brightness until all of the colors are at similar values to what they were before. and the normal layer on top is just to control the intensity/opacity of the paper texture!

after all of that, sometimes i'll go in with brushes like MM rake follow, or more from COFE's weird pencils, on top of all of those layers for finishing touches.

definitely play around with it, try new free brushes all of the time (i heavily recommended subscribing to Manero. they have a lot of free stuff and it's all fantastic) and see what works for you <3

here are the links to the brushes in this post, as well as some extras! some of them are paid and some of them are completely free. + it wasn't mentioned here, but i use the tatyworks linen fabric brush for blending! for any of the paid brushes, i'll try to link some free alternatives

squeezing Toby like a rubber chicken so hard rn, drop the list of brushes you use to render or the crackoon gets it

I’ll explain which ones I use for each process in my drawing:

Sketching

I use “big pencil” for sketching, as it must helps me to get loose with my drawing and not feel like I’m trying to make things perfect. For hair, I use “Hemp”.

I also use “Aggie” (my own brush) within certain moods… it usually results in similar looking styles like these

This my oc btw. (Same person… in each drawing lol. Her story varies.)

Coloring/Base Colours

I use the “Flat Brush 1” or “Round Brush” for blocking in colors, and then go in with “Colour Block Brush” (my own brush) to put in tones like tan, blush, eye colours, blah blah blah.

This is what a base looks like when I’m done. (This artwork is a bit touched up, but all in all, it’s how my base artworks look. The reason it looks finished is because I might have changed the lineart colour or rubbed some sketch lines out.)

Rendering

For rendering, I like to go into finer details, and use the “Brush Pen 1”, but when I feel like that brush is getting boring or too uniform, I switch it up by using the aggie brush, or the colour block brush… which idk why, but it helps me render when I change brushes slightly.

You can see here, I used it a lot, BUT! if you ever feel like it made your artwork look “plastic” or flat, you can simply blend things with a smudge brush that is textured. The one I always use is “Gouache 1” for blending and smudging, it works wonders for me, and gives me that nice texture but at the same time it isn’t too overwhelming.

The other brushes in the pictures are kinda just there for me to have by my side in case I need them or get bored, but all in all, the ones I listed are my main bitches.

If you want my brush sets, lmk, and I’ll email the files to you. I ain’t a gatekeeper ✊🏼

Hope that helped.

Toodles.

[safwunnz]

YO!!

Are you a utmv artist hoping to make a big collab with other artists to make one big drawing?

well don’t I have somethin for ya (пwп)✨✨

On the 14th of October 2023 (some time around 06:00 EST), I’m opening a halloween themed magma for ALL OF U RAD PPL OUT THERE!!!!

Guidelines/Rules:

The magma opens at the 14th and closes on the 31st

You can draw any UT/DT au related characters (which also includes OCs)

you can only draw a maximum of 4 characters

Make your characters small so other people will have enough space to draw

If posting to social media use #utmvhalloweenmagma2023 (only on tumblr) and tag me :3

It’s not compulsory for every character to have a halloween costume, but it is better since everything will be halloween themed

Each character will have to be shaded OR rendered, flat color drawings or sketches won’t be accepted (sorz)

Tracing is obviously not allowed (and oh I should mention rn that gacha is also not allowed)

Some people should volunteer to also draw the background :3 (if no one does I’ll just do it myself lmfao-)

The magma will be split into two canvases. (btw if we run out of space really quickly I’ll make another canvas so other people can draw on the new canvas too)

First canvas:

this is where you put your tag

brainstorming area for everyone like the lighting, time of day, scene, colors, ect

Second canvas:

this is where you’ll actually draw

If you have any further questions please just ask in the comments >v<

hii i'm cyrus, im a disabled autistic artist who umm is kind of short on cash ^_^; i was planning on picking up a second job this summer but due to recent surgery on top of my chronic pain, many jobs would put me in a pretty tough spot

if you have some extra cash and you'd like a commission, i'd love to make something for you!

cute stickers of your fav characters for your discord server, or an icon of your furry, or yourself as a pokemon trainer, or your dnd character kissing their fav dnd character, or a pinup/fake book cover/movie poster of your oc, or a gift for a loved one, or anything really… just shoot me an ask, i don't bite :D

more below, rebl0gz appreciated!

price range is pretty flexible but you'd get what you pay for- sketches for like $5-10 range, finished lines + flat colors for $20ish, fleshed out pieces for $50-100, and paintings for at least $100. extra charges for extra characters or complex designs. once again though this is flexible, shoot me an ask and we can talk about it!

i won't draw inc*st, ch*ld p*rn, anything racist/sexist/transphobic/antisemitic. i will refuse a commission if requested in bad faith

i absolutely don't mind drawing NSFW or fetish stuff, although i don't have much experience with it. same goes for mechas lol i just want to make sure you get what you pay for

i don't feel comfortable asking for donations atm bc this isn't urgent or anything, there are folks who need and deserve the money more! this is just in place of working a second job

if you're interested but unsure then pls save this post somehow, for personal reasons my blog is set not to show in searches

[deltoravivisection]

Can't believe I never posted the combat UI stuff here. These are also just sketches but I really like where they're going. Each party member will have their own unique frame and neutral background. The background will change to show what status condition they're currently afflicted with and if they're at low HP or EP. (The EP/HP bars themselves will be vials filled with gold and red liquid that drain and eventually crack at low health.) Their expressions will also vary depending on their condition, but I haven't gotten around to drawing that yet. I loveee doing small sets of things so this will be a blast I think. In order, if you were wondering, the status conditions are: bleeding, blinded, burned, charmed, frightened, immobilized, pierced, poisoned, stunned, woozy, low HP, low HP and EP, and low EP.

Also, Steven is the only one who has color for his combat sketch rn and I'm realizing that the icons will probably look a bit muddy when the faces aren't so high contrast (white on saturated colors). I might give everyone a border of the darkest color used in their talksprite that isn't flat black. I would normaly outline in white but since the background details are done in white it ended up just muddying it more. idk does this look good here? Any thoughts?

[onereallygoodlambonastick]

*knee-up are now 30% per extra char, not 50%! cool graphics made by the glorious @marianjos

yup. would like to humbly present some offerings. due to issues. i draw mostly in pencil and ink with some digital options, you'll get something physical in the mail for what should be <5 dollar shipping fee if you're based in the "us" chile or brazil, everywhere else is case by case. i'll do a lot this run, ocs down sloppy style, furries, gummies for the generous, short comic spreads for ur ocs and otps, etc except what i will not do. mutuals get xtras n things wink come talk to me to find out!

if at all interested please dm or email me at ohhbde(at)gmail(dot)com, thank you!😐👍🏼💕

🍵add. info below for serious onlookers🍵

i'll also do +10$< for brush pen as an add-on, forgot to add it in

soy has a history of drawing for: orv, link click, shl/woh, ajin, drhdr, jojo, code geass, witch hat atelier. jjk is glaring rn

soy would also luv to draw more for: golden kamuy, neuro tantei, blue period, hxh, inuyasha, your ocs!

sliding scale prices are open to under-resourced folks, especially folks of color, who still want something nice. pm me

i'm opening nsfw comms sloppy style to charas that i don't know or care about so note that is the risk you’re running. i'd love to make your ocs bang if that's what you want to see from me !

ill work on sketch-ups after gathering specifics which will then be sent for approval, wherein you may make changes. once a sketch is finalized no more changes can be made.

your commission will be mailed to you, and if you requested a digital add-on, the file will be emailed to you.

i'll draw ya 2+ gummies if you tip me $5+, which i will donate on your behalf to a person/org of my choosing

refunds only in the case i neglect the entire commission.

in order to make my business a lil more sustainable, i’ll offer a separate one-time exclusive use fee, which is permanent/specific to one person - which was previously built into all my prev commissions, but now you must pay to reserve the commissioned work for personal use. this is so i didnt need to hike up my prices across the board to account for what is essentially one-time use of a drawing, and so i may have the viable option to make merch w it to help offset the cost of offering cheaper comms. if i ever do end up making merch from it, you can request one from me for free or production cost.

if you'd like to commission a one-time use fanart drawing, thats 60% of the flat amount total added on. If not, you can still get the same, actually lowered than before, flat pricing for fanart comms - just bear that in mind! this fee does not apply to non-fanart, which have had their prices modified to reflect this. thanks for your understanding.

and the most fun (and also the least fun pftt) is inking! i enjoy inking so much but if it takes so long i get so "god somebody just kill me" over it SDFGDH i also really enjoy putting on flat colors bc it's like seeing my stuff really come to life!

22. what inspires you

oh girl i'm not sure DFGHDJ rn i'm inspired to keep on drawing bc i wanna improve i wanna draw so GOOD i wanna draw so well and i wanna draw art that personally makes ME insane with technical and creative skill to match, you get me?

#sunnysideanswers #homoceroscaeli

[wild-moss-art]

Uh hi! Just wondering, do you have any tips for people who are considering offering art commissions? I want to try it out but I’m also very intimidated haha 😅

(also are you taking commissions rn? I saw you were a while back but I didn’t remember them closing, sorry if I missed it)

Thanks for asking!! Mine aren’t currently open, I am hoping to open them soon but I don’t have a timeline on that currently 😅

However, here’s a list of fandom artists I enjoy that currently have comms open. If I forgot anyone I apologize, feel free to add a reblog and I’ll plug you! And if I included any artists that don’t want to be tagged, let me know and I will remove it. In alphabetical order:

@agre-sora - I’ve commissioned sora before, highly recommended!

@artsyvamp - I adore the heart shaped pulls and swirly cheek decals 🥺

@distortedplatinum - really good at mimicking the fe3h art style

@earnono - in particular I like the chibis, but earnono is great at a bunch of styles!

@edns - great with dynamic and dramatic compositions, especially comics

@g0ld-m3d4l-art - a great character artist, if you have an oc or something you’d like drawn!

@it-me-butts - particularly good at well composed adorable scenarios in a unique style

@pioneer-over-c - can’t go wrong, good for character art and illustration and everything in between

@saturnisaturnip - beautifully detailed and brightly colored paintings

@silvermoonartworks - I’ve commissioned hifumi before, love the chibis!

@spooky-activity - you might be familiar with spooky, another artist with an incredible range

@starredfishing - multifandom artists that’s excellent at depicting a range of characters

And a commissioning guide of sorts, under the cut!

1. Decide what you want to commission! A character, an oc, what they’re doing, if it’s from a fic, etc. a lot of artists like when you can provide a reference, especially for an oc. If it’s for a fic, include the excerpt that you want the image to depict and any other relevant details.

2. Pick a price range. Depending on what you’re willing to spend, some artists will be available and some won’t. You want to know your max price before reaching out to an artist. Usually artists will have their prices listed on their blog and you can include or exclude based on that. If they’re not listed, send a dm!

3. Payment! Most artists take PayPal, but make sure to check. Some people take payment up front, some after completion, or something in between. I personally take full payment up front.

4. If an artist accepts your commission(they may not), there will be some back and forth about the details of the work, so the artist can get a clearer picture of what you want. Just chatting about your idea n all that. Some artists will tell you a time frame(I give an estimate based on the piece), but some don’t and it is okay to decline work with an artist based on the lack of stated time frame if you like.

5. Progress updates, which most artists will send out at an in between stage such as sketch, flat colors, etc. if they don’t tell you how they do updates, you can ask. When you get an update, most artists will allow a few changes, but can’t redraw too much without an extra fee. Another thing to ask your artist about their policies if needed.

6. Final piece, when I deliver I personally usually ask people whether they want to post it or if they’d like me to. Both can happen. At this point you can use it for any stated purpose— icons, fics, etc— but make sure to give credit!

#ty for the ask <3 #art philosophy tag #and to all the artists I tagged— if you’d like me to take down the tag or your name just let me know #as for my commissions well I’ve been wanting to open them but life has been hittin me hard so I can’t really predict for now #will make a post when it happens !
