Look, I don't even have my final product. But, I need to scream that @rskacreates has ALREADY been an outstanding artist to work with. Fast, really listens to the client, and communicates well. After the massive project is done, I've got other pieces in mind to commission with them.

I'm vibing, okay?

Also, I took half a caffeine pill, so I'm feelin' frisky. I have no idea what I am saying.

Side Note: As someone who commissions artists, I really wish that I could see the thoughts and opinions of other clients more frequently. I love getting an idea of an artist's practices, general decorum, and the overall experience. It helps me know what to expect when I hire them.

Also, with the rise of A.I. art, let me say, it has become difficult to trust "commissionable artists" on anywhere but Tumblr—Twitter might be okay, but I'm rather inactive there. I do actively look through Tumblr for artists. Elsewhere, I have mistaken an A.I. (whatever the heck they call themselves), and I never felt more vulnerable to being the victim of a scam. I want to support REAL artists.

Conclusion: Artists, please help advocate for yourself. I love tossing money at any artists eager to relieve me of my funds, in exchange for their talent and skill.

PS1. If you know any artists with open commissions to recommend, I'd love to build a list to look through.

PS2. I may end up building a rec list of artists I've commissioned over time. Some people have fic rec lists, maybe I'll do one for artists.

PS3. I also wonder if I should do a... "input from a commissioner for potential artists w/ commissions."

I apologize for the incoherency of this post. I have no idea what I am trying to accomplish here. If anyone has figured it out, I'd love to know.

I'd love a rec list for commissionable artists, both for the sake of finding them, and for any tidbits on how they are to work with. That's very common in other situations in which people hire someone.

At some point I did some browsing trying to find a selection of options (I'll have to look around and see if I can find that list I made), but it took some digging, and it would have been vastly easier to have them all in one list, complete with links and maybe some info on what they will and won't draw. I know people open and close commissions frequently, but this would be a useful starting point.

Immediate shout-out to @anstarwar for being an amazing artist to work with!

anstarwar

💙💙💙 thank you Zarz this is super kind of you!

Not trying to start a recommendation chain here necessarily (sorry @bucketking for making your post longer if that wasn’t the intent haha) BUT! As an artist who also commissions artists I would recommend @imrowanartist @catawampuscorner @cobaltbeam

I don’t know if they all have commissions open at this time but if you’re looking to start a list, all three of them are fantastic to work with!

imrowanartist

Gsgsfafa thank you for the recommendation <3

I am indeed open for commissions and love working with people to bring their vision to life! (All my commission info can be found in my pinned post).

As for other recommendations, if you love D&D, I can highly recommend my friend @allenvooreef

For all your Star Wars needs I know @chocomars regularly takes commissions!

chocomars

Thank you for the rec!! 💛

I do commissions sometimes and I’ll most likely open some slots by the end of April! You can visit my Ko-fi page to book a slot there when that happens.

@hikimekaku takes commissions too, and you should check her out for her wonderful art!

hikimekaku

Oh my goodness I just logged in here! Thank you so much for reccing me ;;;

Currently I'm unable to take any more commissions (LIFE - *cries* -)...(will keep it posted though) But I can recommend at least two more person who do take commissions!

@cynderiaopus @rosyforest
