Anyone here actually good at art? I see some of those auctions going into the millions.. would be a quick way to make money, I used to hang out in the freebie forums and do quick paint drawings, you would be surprised what some people tip for half decient art.
Results 1 to 40 of 42

I've done art for a few people, mainly as birthday presents. It's been months since I've done it...
People tip pretty well if you do it well for a rich person (same goes for prostitution).
- 03 Mar. 2010 03:00am #3
Yes, the higher up people make about 100k - 1mill+
Depending who your artist is.
Like DJ Lune.
So good but she's so pricey.
I'd draw that avi of you if I had my tablet back.Last edited by iPoison; 03 Mar. 2010 at 03:07am.

I cant do CG well enough to sell it but my pencil and inked art is pretty good, I have a shop thread in the user store forum here and I make about 10-50k a piece for my art on gaia on my main.
I'm a Girl! Please stop referring to me as a guy!

I used to get paid up to 60k for "art"
I took their avatar and ran it through this effect filter, but everyone loved it.
I wont tell you what the effect was - I dont want you to steal my idea ;PLG's resident grammar nazi.
Need warez? I can probably find it for you. Throw me a PM.
For all of my sales, if you refer a buyer to me and they make a purchase, you can recieve 5%

Not really. Good art goes for over 1 million, and for most of the pieces they actually take a few hours at least. Few hours work for $4-5? Not worth it :p
Would be quicker getting a job and buying gold.

Chibis were shittastically easy to make in photoshop xD
Run through a lineart action, then morph it down a little in height, erase some of the detail, and do some coloring.

Good art fetches money no doubt.But then there arent a lot of buyers out these days you know. Even in forums many people just spam a lot (specially art). The good artists are gone. People dont spend unless they are bambooozling rich

Agreed I saw some one who drew only for items. Some of the best i have ever seen the item they wanted was 18mill
- 03 Mar. 2010 02:28pm #17
I should try this, I'm awesome at drawing.
But it just seems like too much effort to actually create your thread.
The amount of work people do, custom headings, table of contents etc.Who's bad?

I compare doing art commishes on Gaia to being an actress/singer/model in real life..
If you're successful, you earn a fucking shitload and become a rich bitch.
But if you don't, then you're pretty much screwed.

I remeber some dumbass guy actually trusted me. He said if I drew him a picture of his avi and sent it to him he would pay 200k. I forgot about him, until he messaged me saying "How is my picture coming along?" I told him it was finished and he made a trade giving me the gold (here's the dumbass part). I had no art so I made him something special. (After all I felt bad for not giving him his art.) Here it is:
I hope that came up
- 04 Mar. 2010 07:16am #26
i saw this person drawing stick figures of the avi. and was tipped over 10k D;<
- 05 Mar. 2010 08:08am #27
I hardly made 10k or so with artz . . . . duh!
- 05 Mar. 2010 09:01pm #28
I make GIF images for gaians, >.> I get paid what they offer me, as long as its over 5k~
I'm so blah :'P I could ask for more but unlike others my art sucks and I can only draw chibis o.e
- 05 Mar. 2010 10:59pm #29
I can't make art >.< Occasionally I can make some good little animated GIF and sell it, but that's pretty rare

My brother used to make art when he was on Gaia.
He made quite alot of money off of it. He use to charge 20k per drawing and they weren't really that good.

I don't like a majority of the "artists" on Gaia.
Most of the shops are crappy art and are highly over priced. I dont mind paying a lot for good quality art, but i'm not going to dish out a few hundred thousand for something a 3 year old could do.
I wish I could draw. I can do headshots, but I fail at bodies

I fail at hands and feet.
Here a tip for all of you:
Some of the people in gaia are questig a hundred of arts.
Make them one. Even a crappy one and they will pay handsomely.
Im searching for some now.
:]

- 07 Mar. 2010 03:24am #38
That actually is good advise, there's always the people who are all "Questing ____/_____ avi art. I always tip"
Even if it's something small, it's still something.
- 08 Mar. 2010 03:29am #39
I used to make breedables when I first joined gaia, but I cba with art stuff anymore(too much work for too little gold ).
You can probably make more gold selling the art for $$$ via devart, etc. then buying cash stuff for resale
- 08 Mar. 2010 04:04am #40
I hang in the Breedables forum.
Millions+ for a piece of art that was simply RECOLORED. Very easy cash if you know what you're doing.Originally Posted by ~Souleater~
