Hello!

I am looking for someone to make a drawing for a tattoo I’d like to get done! I included a screenshot of works similar to what I’d like, but I’d really like for mine to be an original piece. I want 2 separate pictures where the cowboys are facing each other and raising their guns, and I am looking for it to be strictly black or black & gray.

Hi! I’m looking for an experienced or highly talented illustrator for an original 32-page magical adventure storybook aimed at ages 8 to 12, with enough visual depth and charm to appeal to adults too.

The story follows two characters through a series of strange and fantastical worlds, so I’m looking for someone who enjoys creating expressive characters (including new fantastical creatures), imaginative environments and dynamic, story-driven scenes that really spark the imagination. The artwork will also eventually form part of a wider creative project, so visual consistency and flexibility are important.

The wider project is already underway, but I’m currently reworking the illustration process and looking for someone who can take on the storybook component. Some creative foundations and references are already established, so there will be some direction to work from, while still leaving plenty of room for the illustrator's own style and creativity.

Scope:

• 32-page storybook
• Front/back cover and a few small supporting illustrations
• Character and environment illustrations throughout
• Collaborative feedback and reasonable revisions within scope

Budget: AUD $2,000 total, with additional fees for any additional work and other work bonuses that we can discuss separately.

Deadline: first week of October 2026. This is an important project deadline, so I’m looking for someone who has the availability to comfortably work within that timeframe.

I'm particularly interested in someone who is communicative, organised and comfortable working collaboratively. The project has been evolving as we've developed it, so being flexible and adaptable would be a big plus.

Please comment with any work experience, your portfolio, particularly character work, environments, worldbuilding or sequential storytelling. The more you can tell me about yourself, the better :) If you can attach images of the most relevant folio works, that would be super helpful! Children's illustration experience isn't essential, but a flexible style is. I'm more interested in finding someone whose style and approach feels like a good fit, so I'm happy to consider anyone with excellent style.

I've attached some sample visual references, which are all quite diverse. I'm hoping this will help give an idea of the vibrancy/richness of the world while not being a strictly prescriptive description of the style.

I'm also hoping to build relationships with artists for future paid illustration work as the project develops. I'm currently looking for a primary storybook illustrator for this particular deadline, but there will be colouring books and other creative work down the line, so I'll be keeping strong portfolios in mind even if someone isn't selected for this particular commission. If you have colouring book experience, please do let me know that as well!

Thanks! Would love to see your work.

What do you think?

I've only sold to friends, and I could definitely use the money to pay for tuition and stuff.

I was thinking of bust portraits for $50-$90 depending on complexity, and $100+ for landscapes. Is that the normal market value? Just looking for suggestions.

Hey everyone! I recently drew this character design for a personal project and would love to hear what DnD class you think she would be ?

Personally, I was leaning towards a Druid or a Warlock. She mainly uses nature magic, and she holds an evil spirit hostage inside her staff, which she can release at any moment to gain its power, at the cost of losing control over it.

I'm really curious to read your ideas! I'm pretty new to DnD and I've been recently doing commissions for players so I'd like to be more educated about the universe.

My DMs are always open if anyone is interested in a commission for their character ! :)

Hi all! I am currently writing a 5 million word Astarion BG3 fanfic (to answer your questions - 1. Yes. 2. Yes really. 3. Because I'm insane.) And I want it illustrated, hence I come to you fine people.

**The job:**

**\* You must be 18+.**

**\* You must comment on this post before DMing me or I will report you as scammer and block you.**

**\*** Each book is roughly 100 chapters so 100 pieces. You must commit to at least one book. If you're happy at the end, we can do a second, third, fourth, book together. There are likely 10 in total, but I assume half will be done by my primary artist (see below)

\* You have enormous flexibility in schedule. Ideally I'd like at least one piece a week but if you want to do more, you get paid more. Up to you.

\* Budget is approx $20AUD per piece, with revision charges to be discussed, and a bonus for each book completed. I understand this is not a high cost per piece but it is a large job with flexible terms. I am willing to discuss a slightly higher price if your output and quality is high. So its technically a $2000AUD job, with potential for more.

\* You will be given reference pics and/screenshots to work with.

\* No AI, no anime, no colour (I can tint). Working in Clip Studio Pro is preferred but not required.

\* No graphic nudity or excessive violence. There may be occasional tasteful nudity (boobs and butts) but no penetration or genitals.

\* BG3 fans preferred, you need to prove you can draw Astarion, Tav and the other companions.

\* You dont need to exactly match the existing artists style but they should be compatible.

\* You don't need to read the fic but it would be nice if you did 😅.

Disclosure - I do already have an amazing artist in the form of Kouzaisan (link below), who has made me about 150 pieces so far. But sadly I have increased the length since she began and we've decided its too much for just one person, unless we still want to be doing this in 2036. She will continue to work on the books but I'm seeking a **second artist** to begin work on Book 3. The two of you will not work on pieces together unless she helps you get the characters right.

Hi! I'm looking for someone who can extend this Ralts art from EX Sandstorm or Dragon Frontiers so that I can put it on a binder. This is my favorite card, and I am hoping to print it on a binder using Etsy on a Vault X 9-Pocket Exo-Tec Zip Binder (350mm height x 260mm width): https://www.etsy.com/listing/4538948877/custom-personalized-vault-x-zip-binder?ls=s&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=custom+vault+x+binder&ref=sr_gallery-1-2&sr_prefetch=1&pf_from=market&sts=1&content_source=50edbfe5-e5db-4ec1-bb9a-382ba4af87c4%253ALTbcf4a52e21f22147b34b0ba29c8b03c174948ac6&organic_search_click=1&logging_key=50edbfe5-e5db-4ec1-bb9a-382ba4af87c4%3ALTbcf4a52e21f22147b34b0ba29c8b03c174948ac6&variation0=6856419548&variation1=6963813314

Let me know if you need any additional information! The photo doesn't have to be as big as the binder, but I would want something high enough quality to print. I would prefer to be under $80, but if additional work needs to be put in (I don't know if there is a high quality photo for this), then I could go higher. Thank you!

Looking for something in the very particular pulp magazine cover art style that was used in the 30s and 40s. I have references for my character and a general idea of what I want out of the cover. My budget starts at $100 but I am very willing to go for a much higher price, especially understanding that I hope to use this commercially for a game project I am working on. Mind you, the goal here is to stylistically match this particular painted look of the era, so if you think you can handle it feel free to comment with your portfolio and I'll gladly DM you!
