High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
Big vouch! Worked with her lots in a past and helped her start up and she's really creative and great to work with! Definitely one of my favorite newcomers in my 3 years on this site and i'd highly recommend her!

There's no reason why people should still be asking new members on the site to "prove themselves" by offering free work. Reputation is built overtime by working with actual clients. People shouldn't expect free work from artists just because they're new it's a very counter productive way to grow the community.
If I was an artist, I'd be like "fuck that". People are here to make money, so If he doesn't wanna do some VCs (which is really just free stuff to someone) then it's fine.
Yeah definitely the more work the better. That'll come with time though so I'm looking forward to seeing more posted!
appreciate this!
Key words there are "If I was an Artist" And even since your not an artist you should still understand that more examples of works = more clients.[DOUBLEPOST=1531784463][/DOUBLEPOST]I'm gonna have to agree with carstonia about you needing to have more examples of work to show especially with that pricing if you want to be able to get more clients faster.
The reasoning for this is you need to be able to show potential clients that you have constantly good art and a wide range of skill since your coming into a market with already established artist that do good work at competitive prices and already have a large rep to precede them. We all start at the bottom and gotta climb towards the top, its just a faster climb when you have more pieces to show.

I would use imgur to host your images, its a much better alternative than using mediafire.just finished a new piece! i'll be adding more as time goes on
I do not entirely agree with this comment. The concept of more work is to show your experience and consistency, however, if you fill your portfolio with all your work and a client asks, "Hey, may I see some more work" you don't want to say no. It is best to have quality > quantity as another designer stated. I would interpret this as only post 50-75% of your best work and leave your 25% and less quality work in the archive so, you will be prepared when the client asks. Another way to think about it is, if you fill your portfolio with all your work, your client might not even buy; it is like writing. When you write you do not want to fill your message or essay with a ton of information that isn't needed, its a sign of poor writing. So if the artist can't filter out the bad work do not expect the client to be impressed by it and buy.
As moon10k said about VC's, I think they are a bad idea. If I was a new designer(which TimTam doesn't seem to be that new to design judging by the quality of his/her work) I would do work for non-profits and people idol, ultimately choosing who I want to create art for and not the other way around as this depletes the value of their work.
Finally, someone who understands the value of an artist's work and doesn't use "VC" as a way to get free shit.
Couldn't agree more. I wish more people on this site realized this.
i appreciate everyone who has commented. unfortunately, i'm not interested in any VC's as i've been drawing for several years now, and had my fair share of free service. i hope that this does not affect my credibility as an artist, and i assure if anyone were to commission me for work, i will provide a quality product.
Due to the unique design of the thread itself, and the style the artist provides. I really think that should be enough proof to show they are who they say they are. I'm sure TimTam is willing to provide proof if there was any concern of legitimacy.
Good luck Tim, excited to see what you are able to do.
