I’m like one of those animals that only show up once in a while. Gonna vanish again until I finish commissions and post them.

実家は印刷会社だけど、自分の描いたやつは父に見せられないから、必要な時は他所に出してる。

Saw this term on some artists’ price sheets while I was researching—kinda like “thigh-up”? Maybe it’s not really a native English thing? (English is so hard🥲

275🌟 @nrj275.bsky.social · 22d

Yeah! I used to think a “headshot” covered the upper chest + arms too, but nope—that was just me misunderstanding lol

Oops, just realized I mixed up the meanings of “headshot” and “bust-up”.🥲

I did mention on X that my sub account only takes chibi + headshot sheets (hence much cheaper than full-body), but I still worry some might mistake it for full-body commissions… 😮‍💨

I love halfbodies too! Some can make the layout look really stylish! Expression pages sound really fun as well—hope I get to try them sometime in the future!

275🌟 @nrj275.bsky.social · 26d

True!! Having some clear requests while leaving room for the artist’s own creativity feels like a really good balance.

But sometimes I wonder—maybe people just want a simple standing/sitting pose(?

275🌟 @nrj275.bsky.social · 26d

You’re absolutely right! When working on commissions, I often struggle with coming up with good compositions and poses too. Maybe nobody really notices, but I do try to vary the face direction and action to avoid repeating the same pose.

No worries!

I also tend to lean more toward full-body commissions. (It’s always interesting to see how different artists handle and express things in their own way. Very inspiring.)

275🌟 @nrj275.bsky.social · 27d

I’m honestly curious—what types of commissions do people usually want?
A headshot, a full-body piece, or perhaps another type?

Fingers crossed the law of balance means I’ll run into some good things next :-P

Bad things always seem to come all at once… I’ll just take it as motivation to draw more! (self-hypnosis 😌)
