Hello! I'm new here and was wondering if anyone would be interested in buying any of my artwork. Or whether or not, anyone would be interested in buying artwork for this site's currency, dA points or maybe even actual US dollars?

I have two different styles, really. I can do a cartoon style and a realistic style.

Here are just a few examples of my artwork;

I'm pretty good at felines but i'm also pretty good at canines and humans as well! I just don't any to dA because no one really notices those lmao

But yeah, comment below? I'm not sure how pricing works here so if you could give me an example of how much i should price, that'd be awesome!

Hello! Welcome to Lioden :)

I think your art is great, and I'd definitely buy something like your first and second examples for like, 5-15 GB, easy. ^-^
We also really like recolors, so if you're not interested in doing custom lines for every single order, that's a really good way to make relatively easy money. Depending on line/shading/coloring complexity, I think you can get at least 1 GB per recolor, and even more if you're up to adding decors on your base lineart c:

I'm really glad that you all like my artwork that much! :O I would have never guessed it'd be work that much omg

I was also wondering the ratio between 1 GB and SB? Like would 1 GB equal 100 SB?

I was thinking about setting up a recolor shop but i'm not sure i know what that means? Like would i draw a few linearts and people pay me to recolor them so it's their character?

1 GB usually equals about 1200 SB.
And yes, that is exactly what a recolor shop is c;

Thank you guys for the insight, i think i'll go ahead and open up a little shop after i draw up some linearts :')

Would it be weird to advertise them as 5 but then say "if you want shading or accessories, it'll be 2GB/2000SB more"?

Not at all! If the base price (without any addons like background, shading, or items) is 5 GB, then its perfectly normal to advertize them as 5 GB

So this was the art you were talking about :D! Really awesome, like the others are saying, easily at least 5GB, if not more!

I also have another question!

Should i be drawing lions or lionesses more? Like what appeals most to everyone everyone. I know you mostly play as a lion but i have a feeling that people also want their lionesses in on the equation?

Well I find that lions/lionesses and basically felines and canines in general are what a lot of people get commissioned for and being able to draw wings horns and hooves also help.

Most people tend to draw lineart for both :)
Another option is a lioness base and you can offer "mane add-ons" to the lioness base in order to make the lion (if that made sense at all xD) ^-^
