Also, since we're like a team now, let's take turns drawing? xD

Btw, Tofelium, does your character has telekinesis? Since s/he can levitate teh cocktail cup goblet thing? It might improve our chances of survival. xD

But what is that flying towards our three amigos!?!
Will they be able to overcome this next challenge and gain a new friend while avoiding fighting?!?!

I'd say either the outer two look best. Although the left one looks like a cardinal and the right one like a ranger... Maybe do the right one with the hat of the left one.
Or you could think about the guys character a bit more, left seems more stern, rational;.right seems more mellow.

This is great, I'll have to check, but I'm sure I can spare 200 bucks for a couple of neat background images!

So... what you're saying is that the pink bits around the breasts should be a reddish color?

Yes

so you are selling lightboxes with your work in it? I thought you were just selling the boxes here so other people could use them to light up their own artwork.

I think you'd learn the same stuff, and more of it, from just using reference pics of nude/seminude models...

Breidde writer, 4th could also be a troubleshooter/jack of all trades. I know a lot of peopl have through NG gotten acquainted with various disciplines, but might not be good enough to take a single task all by themselves. They can give feedback/ideas to the other members and help keep overview and communication, since they're not stuck to one perspective.

Autonomy comes from the Greek auto=self and nomos=word/law; setting yourself the law. This should not take the character of randomness, of doing whatsoever enters your fancy, willkür as the Germans say - rather, these laws should come from within your own reason or will. For Kant, laws should have the character of natural laws; the laws by which you act should still be desireable if they were unbreakable laws of nature, to which everyone should be held. I suggest his Kritik Der praktischen vernunft.

If you want to be a more successful artist, then work toward slowly getting off the grid. Eventually you'll be able to replicate from sight rather than from grid. Then that will be much more impressive.

It's fine to use a technique like that to help with a drawing (especially if you mention that you do so) but you don't want to become too reliant on it. In the other video you posted of the portrait of a friend you used a reference pic that didn't have the top of her head in it. In your drawing you just accept that that part of the head isn't there instead of drawing that yourself; you should be able to do that without having a reference and grid. The fact that you don't shows me you are relying on the grid too much.

NG now promotes master-race art that's supposed to represent a certain "level", despite most of NG art being boobs, abstraction and despite probably the most important principle of art as not being a subject to "leveling"), especially over a rough/ fast comic sketch that I didn't even bothered to scrutinize with any accuracy. (Just cause someone can't draw a photo-realistic human doesn't make him a sh..t artist, it either makes him not skilled enough or working in a different medium, mine is comicbook/ manga)

I'm not gonna get inbetween you and ToaS, but when you say you just posted "a rough/fast sketch that you didn't even bothered [sic] to scrutinize with any accuracy" you kinda take the sting out of your entire argument. Sure, art isn't measurable to absolute standards, sure we should appreciate and stimulate people who are just learning, but that doesn't mean you don't have to try at all.

stop looking at this as censoring.
Newgrounds offers people the option to decide what content they want to browse. Anyone can just see m-rated art, nothing is stopping them from looking at it, it's just a warning that says: "there is some nudity and/or violence in this".
Note how it doesn't say anything about how tasteful or artistically valid that nudity is.

There's a couple of language issues in your post which make it look less professional/trustworthy than you'd probably like it to. Second, most people frequenting this forum are artists themselves, so not many of those will be in need of hiring an artist. If you are willing to settle for split revenue instead of an hourly rate, try posting in the collabinator: http://www.newgrounds.com/collab
Third, many potential clients will have no idea of how many hours a certain project will take you. Your hourly rate will thus give them no idea of what you are going to charge them. You might want to just give people a fixed quote per project (with optional extra costs for corrections etc.) so that they know what they're dealing with.

Look at some personal art threads here on the forum; you can see good progress in most of those; flowers' one for example.
Getting good at drawing takes a lot of practice though, even people that got in the game late will probably have spend more than four months before they could draw anything decent.

Same here. I'm really shaky when it comes to doing art and keeping motivated. I design the occasional logo for people I know or over the interwebs, but I wouldn't want to rely on that as a source of income.
