r/ArtComissions

Hey everyone!

As the title suggests, I'm really curious whether it's actually possible to make a living drawing NSFW art.

I'm honestly getting tired of working my ass off at my current job for very little money, and I'd love to make a living doing something I actually enjoy.

Why NSFW instead of SFW? From what I've seen, there's a pretty big demand for NSFW art, and a lot of people seem willing to pay good money for it.

So, for those of you who are already doing this: is it realistically possible to turn NSFW art commissions into a full-time income? How long did it take you to get there, and what would you recommend to someone starting from scratch?

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences and opinions!

Looking for an artist to make a group artwork of my Dnd party. The party consists of 7 PCs. We r looking for large artwork to physically hanf in our game room. I will have descriptions of each character as well a basic Ai portrait(as much as I hate Ai) to give you a better idea outside of the description. The setting is not fantasy as the campaign takes place in 2006 New Orleans. The style we r looking for is close to modern comics, we're not huge fans of to much realism but also don't like the cartoony style. But we r open to suggestions of other styles. Please leave a comment if you r interested and we can discuss further. Thank you all for taking time to read this post and I look forward to hearing from you.

Just a disclaimer we do not want the artist to use AI in anyway to make the commission.
