Making Commissions TutorialOkay, so you've got some extra cash and/or points and want to commission an artist. However, there are a few things you should do before you send that note asking for a commission. This is what I do to assure myself that no more people end up in my Hall of Shame.

Before you send a note:
1. View an artist's ENTIRE gallery. Scrutinize each deviation carefully. Download them if you can (click the button to the right of the deviation that says download or the image itself) and note any potential problems. (I find the majority of problems on human figures are in the hands and feet.)

Well, rush job, but finished nonetheless. I fear the writing could have been composed a lot better but I still think I got the general idea across. Tell me what you think PLEASE!!

COMMENTS PLZ!!!!!! Tell me if this helped in any way shape or form too. I love feedback as this is a new way of writing tutorials for me. It is a lot faster, but I'm afraid I should proofread it at least once. No time for that right now however. Like I said several times now, feedback is vital!

Thanks!

Thank you, I'm really glad you liked it. ^_^

Great tutorial, and great research too! Just one little suggestion: why don't you put it on a multipage PDF and link it here for download? It would be much better to read, I guess.
But as I said, a great tutorial anyway!

That's a good idea. The only reason I make my tutorials like this anyways is because I submit them to forums and tutorial sites. I've thought of compiling all my tutorials into one big one and then turning that into a PDF, but I figure I should write some more first.

Thank you for the comment.
