1) Can you do a drawing for me? 2) Can I put some of your art on my website? 3) Can I link to an image? 4) What pens do you use to ink with? 5) Will you do a logo for me? 6) Can I use one of your animated gifs as an icon? More to be added later.
1) Can you do a drawing for me? A free drawing? No. Eventually I might put up a commissions page, but currently I have a full-time job and no time to do art for free for anyone. I rarely do art trades, as well. 2) Can I put some of your art on my website? Please don't... my art is happy here, and doesn't particularly want to be anywhere else. :D I work hard on my art- please respect my copyright and don't post it anywhere else. 3) Can I link to an image? If you do this it steals bandwidth from my site and costs me money. Please don't do it. If I find someone linking to an image from my site so it shows up on their own, I will remove the image, so don't do it. 4) What pens do you use to ink with? It depends, really. Sometimes I ink with technical pens like Koh-i-Noor rapidographs, sometimes with cheap throwaway pens like Zig Milleniums or Faber Castell Pitt Artists' Pens, sometimes with a brushpen, sometimes with Copic's inking pens, and sometimes I "ink" in Flash. I usually sketch in ballpoint pen or pencil, then trace the image onto Bristol and start inking. 5) Will you do a logo for me? For free? Not unless you're a close friend. I'm not sure what I'd charge for logos; it's a very tricky area, depending on what they're used for and how widely distributed they are. I'd be willing to try doing a logo, but keep in mind I'd expect to be paid for it. :) 6) Can I use one of your animated gifs as an icon? Please do not. These animations were created for software products and are not free for use for anyone but me. I will have to take them down if people steal them.
