Commission and drawing
I haven't really started the year the way I wanted to art-wise, but at least I've done something. A co-worker commissioned me. In total, it was 80 bucks, but because I had told him lower I let him have it for 60. I had discussed my pricing with my friend and she said it sounded reasonable. 30 bucks as a base price and then 14 bucks an hr after that. The 30 covers supplies, interest and research (if necessary). The 14/hr is my current rate of pay as a cashier, so it covers the time taken.
Here's the commission piece. It was based off many Google images of dinosaur birds. It was fun to draw scales. Interesting.
I also did this the other day. I decided to finally watch Supernatural.,. I knew about the shoow for a while and I recognized the actors, but I haven't watched it before. I know I am late, but it's nice 'cuz I can marathon it. It's been about a week and a half since I started and I'm already on the sixth season. Guess I just have too much on my hands. Anyways, Jensen Ackles is beautiful, especially in the reference pic. God, those eyes. I don't have much experience with white people or stubble, but I figured I would give it a shot. It was discouraging, though, because I found other fanart, of the same pic, and everyone elese's looked a billion times better. I messed up on the colour of his eyes. Went a bit too blue and I couldn't fix it :/
I want to practice more with drawings non-Asian people. I need to invest in proper paper. See if that helps in what I am lookign for. Jensen is great to start of with.
