For the sake of being able to use my Mac again I'd like to get the bugger repaired at least. So I'm taking up small commissions, I have 5 slots open (shared between DA and FA). I realize that everyone is tight on the money right now; upcoming conventions, moving out, holidays and more. This is why I'll be offering small $10 commissions.
And when I say small I'm talking about a picture like [link] with a simple background. I'm also fine doing character sheets, badges, iconsets or whatever ...
One thing though, I don't do humans at the moment so it's animals or anthro stuff pretty much.
Cheers!
~Sniggles
EDIT: 3 slots have been claimed and I got 1 on standby.

Just came to stop by and see what the big deal is. My husband ~manofscience and our friend ~toasty are game artists, so I thought I'd see how it stacked up.
I'm kind of surprised, frankly. Your work doesn't look like the kind of art I see out of game artists at all. Do you work on cell phone games?

While I agree that indeed, none of my artwork here lives up to the quality of a game artist for current gen titles, and oh my oh my ... most of it is ... 5 min drabbles or 4 years old, you honestly think that's normal to compare to compare to pictures people spend hours on? (and oh boy, I never said I was amazing ... ever). Perhaps it would have been wise to mention that I work as a game designer/concept artist so I won't have people's back up going and going crazy about the fact someone with these skills won't get far enough in this business. One may also keep in mind that not all of us just make pretty pictures, but also come up with original ideas which will then be turned into very detailed artwork by people with amazing sick skills. I work close together with people who's skills are equal to yours and better, but please, simply saying "Hmm, I don't think your art is good enough for this field, what do you work on" would have been enough. Small and snippy rude comments are not all that appreciated. I know people with less skills than I do, and they, as well, have a pretty good job in this field.
But alas, it was late when I wrote all that, I was getting tired of stuff getting offtopic, it turning into a lets throw insults war ... and I still am tired of it. The original topic was that I believe the artwork Gem is offering and the complexity of the picture is a bit off. Why people felt the urge to start insulting my own skills for stating this is still beyond me. I never compared it to my own works skills as such, though admittedly this was poorly phrased. Because honestly, if you guys would get paid 100 dollars for character sketches like Gem does, surely you'd be rich enough not to worry about this.
Also, thanks, I actually work on DS and Wii titles. Although, at the moment, I'm working on an iPhone title so perhaps I should say I work on mobiles, shame you actually see the artwork there clearly so hmm ... guess the comment doesn't really apply then? Admittedly, I work there more as a technical artist than anything else for now. But you know what ...
It's what happens in small companies. I know the limit of my current skills. I'm lucky to have been able to come a long way while working in this field over the last 6 months and I'll be looking forward to posting that artwork on dA once allowed.
Hopefully we'll be able to speak again around that time and maybe you'll feel less 'insulted' that someone with these skills works in the concept art business. Someone who never claimed to be 'zomg amazing' but merely compared the hours Gem would spend on a picture and the hours my co workers would get for it and their paycheck. Thanks. Next time, please read the full stories.
Best of luck to you.

I love the way you used the contrast and silhouette in the final piece.
Thanks! And good luck
