TOPIC | Pixel art interest?
Hi there!! Would anyone be interested in paying treasure for pixel art of their dragons? Here's an example of a really quick still one: [img]https://66.media.tumblr.com/33a1db4a48042e8c7635cc63028ce292/tumblr_ph0tktUfRn1vzpp1qo1_250.png[/img] And here's examples of some animated ones! These definitely take longer though!

Looking for treasure specifically-- new member saving up for an eliminate :-)

@colestoad They're adorable! My one suggestion would be to darken the outline of the dragon, to make them stand out more, and focus on colour gradients to indicate genes ^^ that said, I'm interested!

You should price them on size, background, complexity of genes/colours and the amount of time it takes to do them - for the first example you should be looking at 100-300kt (100,000 - 300,000t), but it really depends on how much energy they take to do. If it's quick and you're not doing genes, you might be more comfortable with lower prices (50-100kt for a flatcolour like the example, but that's very low), but if it takes more energy, don't feel bad for pushing the price up!

The animations are a different story, you don't want to be going under 500kt for an animated piece. Again, it depends on how much colour and detail you're putting into the piece - I'd say the lower end would be 500-600kt for a flatcolour, and the high end should be 800-900kt for genes.

Humans are a different story! Always price more for Gjinkas because they're generally harder to draw.

@DuskAwakening
Thank you so much!! Those are great suggestions, and really helpful info about pricing. The animated ones definitely take a lot of effort, a lot of steps there.

@Phyllored
Thanks so much for the interest!! Those definitely take a while, a few hours at least, but if you're interested I would love to make you one!!

@Phyllored Wonderful!! I'd prefer treasure because I'm saving up for an eliminate (600kt or 600g) but if gems work better for you I definitely wouldn't say no! :-) Do you want to message me references of the OC/details?
