Artist's Comments

Practice for commissioned portraits I should be doing. I already have some interest :) Yaay.

I really don't like it :| I think I'm better at drawing things when its something I actually want to be drawing >_< I really couldn't be arsed with this one :lol:

The lady I drew this for is coming around to collect it later :)

Size: A4
Time: 8 hours
Used: HB and 4B pencils, tissue paper for smudging, putty eraser and my sketchbook :)
Photo reference: [link]

How much do you think I should charge for these things? Bare in mind the other portraits I do will be better :)

thanks you! :)

£50, eyy? Seems quite a bit considering I'm just starting out... I'll probably sell them for somewhere around the £20 mark *strokes beard* Your friend has a very nice gallery :D

Mongo is an orphan who walks 5 miles every day to fetch clean water. With your donation of just £2 a month we can buy a whip to make the lazy bugger run.

yup :)
Yeah that's a good idea, if you sell them with a frame add the price of the frame though :)
I buy plain ones and customise them (mainly for fun atm) and that can add a few squids onto the price ;)

I think it's really good! I know what you mean about not wanting to draw things ^_^
I have no concept of money so I have no idea how much you should charge though :lol:

This is a pretty sweet portrait considering the reference is a bad picture, lol.
The shading is amazing. Really.
I'd charge about $20... I'm not sure what that is in pounds, but in the US, 20 seems logical.
Maybe 30. No, definitely 30.
Go for 30.
