Another finished piece! Help with first time commissions?

[audra-hime]

I have never taken commissions before, but I would absolutely love to! I'm a fast worker and a great communicator! I'm thinking of asking for 5 or 10 dollars a piece! FULL COLOR AND BACKGROUND, can be two characters! My biggest priority will be making sure that you are happy with it! I can do a range of styles going from G4 to more horsey horses. Just check it out below! I'd like some feedback from experienced artists on how they usually do this! Thank you so much!

Here's Marigold! I hope you like her! Again I have a backgroundless version if you'd prefer that! I think everything looks more finished with a bg no matter how simple. I had so much fun with that lovely hair!

Here is Corona's adorable OC, Duster! Excuse the horrid background, those I REALLY need practice on. I have a version without it as well if you'd rather have it! She was so fun and unique to draw!

I finished Bekuno's OC!! Tried some of my old human art techniques (like eyes) on the pony and I love it. I think I'm getting a better feel for my style. Loving all this practice! Thank you guys!! Starting on Corona's OC next!

I drew Reiya's beautiful OC, Chantilly! I'm always open to drawing OCs I really need and appreciate the practice!

A G4 Holiday Minty!

Some of my favorite G1 ponies in G4 style! Mostly because I'm not comfortable with my more horsey anatomy yet.
I hope you like them!

OMG, she's so pretty! The long graceful neck and feet totally work well for her.

I'm so glad you think so! I was worried I should have made her shorter, so I'm glad! Thank you so much!

She is lovely, I like the long hair!

For horse anatomy, the biggest thing I notice in this pic is that the joints of her back legs bend in the wrong directions.  Because horses are unguligrade, they walk on the very tips of their toes.  The hoof is actually a big toenail.  So what you see as a knee is really analogous to the ankle in human anatomy.  So when the joints seem backwards to you, it's because they don't really match up to what you would expect from looking at your own anatomy.  Does that make sense?

Overall though, I love the flow of the hair, the sparkles, and the little highlights.    Very cute.

Yes! Thank you so much for the feedback!! I knew her back leg was wonky xD Thank you so much! I might change that!

It's so nice seeing art of those 2 ponies; they don't seem to get a lot of love, but I'm pretty fond of them too, crazy lashes and all! I think you did a great job on them. You really captured their elegance, and they're nicely stylized. Love all that flowing hair!

The little G4 pony is quite cute too, but I just love seeing G1 art, even in non-G1 style, and especially under-appreciated ponies! ^^

Aww, thank you so much for appreciating it! They're so lovely!! I totally agree with you!
And I've got the FiM style down to a T and it's what's preferred in a fb group I TRY to connect with... xD But they enjoy giving me their OCs to draw and it can be really fun! I'm going to try to practice all the other generations styles as well! There are so many older ponies my fingers are craving to draw!

[Reiya]

Oh I love the Princesses! Those two are extremely under appreciated. I think that your anatomy is getter much better. If you ever just want to draw a random OC feel free to draw Chantilly. She has the slimmer body type like the the SHS/ Bride and Celestia if you ever want practice.
