Name your own price digital art commisions (economical issues)

Well, seems like I've gotten myself into one of those really bad economical situations. Did a few miscalculations and was perhaps a bit too generous, the fridge is empty and as I check my bank account before going into town I see these heartwarming numbers.



This is roughly 4USD, which by swedish prices barely is sufficient for one really cheap meal. I'm in a really tight spot, I'm in no position to borrow money, and neither do I got any way to obtain any, and frankly speaking, I'm a bit frightened over how I'll even manage to spread out 4 bucks up until the 31st when I get my welfare. Now despite the generosity of some, I really wont in any case accept donations, irregardless of from who or with what reason despite my situation, but what I can on the other hand do is offer you a bit of my effort and work, that being my hobby within digital art, for a sum of what you feel it is worth. Unfortunately I am no professional, frankly merely an aspiring beginner and I can not offer much, but I in all honesty have no clue of what else to do.

If you got an idea or something which you wish for me to create or recreate, following your precise guidelines or merely improvising until you're satisfied, then I'd be happy to do some work for you. Now I do not really got a lot to show of as examples of what I can do as I've improved a good bit but have not really put the improvement into action, but I do know both the human anatomy and how to use values pretty well and can assure you that anime-esque work is not the only thing that I can pull off. These are a few of recent paintings, where off they might not show you all too much, but at least give you a mild idea of how experienced I am in the subject.


I don't feel like I got any rights to specify prices for work, so once(if) you're satisfied with the outcome, then feel free to donate however much you feel like helping me out with, even if that is a sum of zero. If you don't feel like its worth you spending money on, then don't feel obligated to pay anything.

A big thank you in advance to all or anyone of you who'll take me up on this and help me out. I'll look forward to working with you. Best regards, boat.

Aww I'd totally pay you 50 dollars for a stick figure dog if I didn't have to save every penny for this month.

Best of luck boaty.

EDIT: Ok I changed my mind, I wouldn't approve of myself if I did that. I can surely spare $25 USD, draw me whatever you feel like. (As long as it's more than 50% pink~)

I'll be needing some art for some of my eventual video game projects, but I don't have a timeline as to when I'll have things sorted out for that.
Or if you're good at creating sharp, user interface-style art, I could use some of that right now.

Would be great if you could define the request a little bit more. Feel free to message me privately.

A big thank you to you Jarby. I censored your name and email as you might want to keep that private.

Hope you'll enjoy the album cover, and really if there is anything which you want me to change/fix or alter, then just shoot.

I'm really a good bit relieved. At least tyler will have food for the month now, which makes me a lot happier. I'm off to the store to recycle some bottles ; w;

thank you once again

Paypal is malfunctioning and not sending the money over to my bankaccount, well at least it hasn't yet, so for now I'll just share my fried eggs with tyler. In any case, if anybody is still interested in this kind of offer, then I'd gladly take you up on it, as there is still half a month to go and all.

Oh and, I don't take payments up front. I'll only accept any kind of donation once you're satisfied with the outcome, and of course, that amount is what you feel its worth. Thank you in advance.

Apparently the usual time for transactions to go to your bank is 2-3 days, but it can take up to a week. I don't know what you can do about that.

Its alright, he seems to be quite fond of what I eat anyways, I'll just have to find some more people to paint for as it wont last for long.

I hope you can earn too much money.

Unfortunately, I have no money on paypay and I have no credit card to contribute.

When I have one, I'll buy one art work for sure :)

I am having troubles figuring out whether or not this is serious. Not even kidding.

In any case, I got an idea for a little thing. Give me an hour or so.

I'll finish it up on monday. A friend of mine offered me to stay at her place over the night, so I wont be able to work on it today at least.

If anybody else is interested in this kind of offer, then I'd be really happy to work for you. What I've gathered so far is barely sufficient for the dogfood, and theres two weeks to go. I'll get to all requests on monday, and as for yours ippe I'm working on it.
