Tost: Just out of curiosity I clicked the Hentai Foundry link and looked at this person's pricing (It's always nice to see how much money someone paid for a stupid WoW hentai picture).
Their pricing is 95 dollars per person plus more for detailed colors and backgrounds. This picture probably cost some fucking dumbass using his mom's credit card well over 400 dollars to make.
Now, in this artist's defense, they're a slight bit higher quality than some of the other garbage spewers on the internet, but nothing in this entire picture is worth 95 dollars; let alone over thrice that.
It's just jading and obnoxious to be someone who produces things (not art in moi case, though) and set yourself to a standard of quality and pricing only to see some cunt on the internet draw a Night Elf with dick tits and charge 300 dollars for it when they put fairly little effort into it.
I mean I understand I'm griping about "PORN MAKES MONEY", but at least when a slut sucks a dude's dick on camera she has to apply herself to it and put effort into taking three cum shots on her face. When you're just some asshole who draws porn, the only effort you have to really put into it is not caring a single bit about basic anatomy and drawing Sailor Moon shitting on a gender bent Popeye.
fuck fuckc ufkc ufck fuck i am the angry video doug walker i put on my fedora.... just epic
You have absolutely no idea how much time goes into making art. If they charged less than that and you looked at it hourly you're expecting them to work for what, 6$? Respect the artist, respect the smut. Get off my site.
Anonymous6: "But what makes other people willing to pay him more than others? Must take some talent there."
He isn't that good. Artists like Ragora are better.
As for the price... it's nothing more than what the buyer and seller are willing to agree on. Sure, things like hours taken to make it may have an impact on it but price is dictated by what the buyer gets out of it. I wouldn't pay $400 for porn but others may.
You're the one with absolutely no idea how much time goes into making art. If this was just a normal picture of three people just standing together, would it be almost 100 dollars per person? If you say "yes", you are a fucking moron.
This is also an unfair statement. People don't pay 100 dollars a character just because they really think the guy is THAT good. Like I said, if this wasn't sexualized content, no one would fucking pay so much. But they -have- to pay that much because they're lonely twats who really want to see their Night Elf character get fucked and there isn't exactly an over-flow of porn artists. You work with the few artists you can find who will draw your night elf scat fantasy and you pay whatever they ask, because if you don't pay them, there's 50 retards in waiting who will because everyone wants their porn and there's comparatively little people making it.
Anonymous8(4): While not an artist myself I had the displesaure of walking through an art school and art town every day for twenty years. I've heard enough of their bullshit to at least appreciate what they do even if I hate them with a passion. This sounds to me as if you can't get people to buy shit at your exorbitant prices.
Jaxx: @Tost: Actually, there's quite a lot of time that goes into this sort of thing. Maybe not 300 dollar worthy. Around half of that would suit something like this.
Seems like since you can't dig $400 from stupid hentai pictures, you spend your time ranting on hentai sites about how hard your life is. Get a life, asshole. Or maybe learn to draw.
eternalwinds: Tost, honestly, you make it sound like you can match if not exceed this quality of work - if you can, fucking sell all your shit for billions, because while I agree this "commission" is crap, if he can sell it for anything over $40 he's already beat the system.
Anonymous10: @tost
It really isn't just easy work. It takes thousands of hours of practice over the course of years to be able to make something of even this quality. I myself can draw about this well, maybe a teensy bit better. To draw a picture like this, just DRAW it would take about 30 minutes. To clean the line art, organize your layers, paint everything, refine it, clean it up some more, add all of the little details like the freckles and skin texture would take at least 4 hours. Now four hours at minimum wage? You're making at least $30. This isn't some no skill required minimum wage job, this is a professional who put a lot of their life into bettering their trade. Making art isn't some easy peasy, "Look everybody! I crapped out a picture!" process. Painting traditionally can be made to look quick and easy by a practiced master but to make some thing with this type of coloring style is a frustrating and time consuming process. Add on to that that you are getting a custom made order(in this case also featuring the artist herself, which I think is pretty bitchin')and it becomes even more valuable. Plus, as already stated, there are far fewer artists who can do a quality porn piece than a regular old commission so the artist has that going for her too.
Now do I believe this picture is worth the prices she charges? Fuck naw, you'd be stupid to pay that much for a picture. But you have to realize that this isn't playtime for her, it's a way of making a living doing a HARD job. I have a regular old sweat, stress and sore muscles job but I can definitely say hers is more difficult. Even if she enjoys it more than we do ours.
Shopmeister: @Tost (and all the other whiners):
Point #1: If you can do better, do it. If you can't, STFU. (AKA: "Draw Tits or GTFU)
Point #2: Hot redhead in ~bondage~ gettin' raeped. Your argument is therefore irrelevant! :P
Point #3: As for "95 dollars per person/$400 for this image", let's break this down into an itemized bill...
- Drawing herself & an elf getting raped = $60
- Spending years and YEARS learning HOW to draw herself & an elf getting raped = $150
- Not wanting to draw herself & an elf getting raped, but doing it anyway to pay the rent = $150
- Time spent waiting and waiting for each commission, panicking about bills that are due = $40
To reiterate: If you can't draw/paint/sculpt any better that her, stop talking, or at least pull down your pants so I can hear you clearly.
