Description
In this one I tried to use less saturated colors than usual - and I gotta say, I like the outcome.
I also feel like this is the first time I've actually drawn a decent human (or elvish, in this case) face xD
Also! I need your honest opinion, guys. Do you think I could make a living as an illustrator?
And do you have any tips for me on how to start a career like that? I'm a bit lost tbh ;v;

I made the mistake of zooming in on her face and got a powerful moment of a crush on a picture! She is lovely. You do some very good work.
Since you asked...
Yes, you could possibly make it as an illustrator, I can certainly imagine your work being used by people. I don't know how people decide between the wonderful pictures/artists here.

I love the atmosphere and color! This is very beautiful.
And to answer your question: I think you'll definitely make it as an illustrator if you aren't already!

What a beautiful piece!
As for how much I think it should cost, I would say it would depend on how much work it was on your part. I've seen some speed paints where the person can do it in an hour, when personally, something like this would take me days.
That being said I would say maybe $40 for an hour, and $80 or more if it's a lot of work. Or if its a crazy amount of work like it would be for me, definitely higher.

Thank you!
For 40/h that would be 360€ since it took me 9 hours to make c:

Hiii !:3
For me, it's between 90 and 110 € given the quality and the time spent on it. It seems to me a very correct price

Thank you! I prefer working without outlines because I feel like they limit the possibilities to early, eat up a lot of time and are non existent in real life xD

Oh wow, this looks fantastic! And I definitely think you could make a living as an illustrator! I don't really know how you could start, but I know there's a website specifically for them. www.artstation.com/
