“HEY  !! Draw me free art, please :3

Another claw on the monkey’s paw curls inward…

I have no idea how this happened or why you all put up with me being a massive derp, but now that I’m slightly less busy and not getting as murdered by work as I used to - I figured now is as good a time as ever for my very first giveaway as a thank you. (And to apologise for said derp. V:)

Rules!

1) Gotta be following me. (It’s a follower giveaway after all.) 2) By participating, you agree that Tumblr has nothing to do with this giveaway and will not be held responsible in any manner whatsoever if something goes sideways. 3) No giveaway blogs. 4) ONE blog per person. If I figure out you filled out the form with multiple blogs, I’ll just remove you from the list. 5) Likes and reblogs are spiffin’, but not necessary.

How to Participate

I’ll be using a randomizer to fish up 3 lucky winners from the results.

What You Might Get!

First Winner - Fully painted portrait of your character.  If you’re curious to see more - here’s page 3 of the tierganvashirart tag which has a buttload of portraits.

Second Winner - Sketch or Inked Linework (with or without simple shading).  Whether it is a sketch vs inked / shading vs no shading is entirely up to your preferences just in case you want to color it or get another artist to color it. If you play FFXIV, you also get $5 worth of Mog Station items!

Third Winner - A smol chibi lineart version of your character with some basic shading.  They may or may not be doing something derp.  If you play FFXIV, you get $5 worth of Mog Station items!

I heard a lot about this biggest reason for people reposting art is because people think all artists should be grateful when their artworks got spread around, and these reposting attempts are very good to boost artists popularity.

But often, they do not put any source or credit the artists at all. Some would then go on and say, “If the artists wish me to put on their source, I will do it.”

But by then, it will be too late. Why don’t you put an extra effort to find WHO the artist is and then put source on your posts - or better yet, INFORM the artist first before you repost their artworks? 

It takes time for any artists to draw any artworks and they share it for people to enjoy. It is a mutually beneficial thing, they get feedback and you get to see & enjoy the visual products. So, as a real token of appreciation (in case of fan art/free art), why don’t you take the time to actually find those sources or ask for permission from the artists?

You see many others on the internet aren’t sourcing their posts either? Doesn’t mean it gives anyone a free pass to do the same. Right? Have some heart, artists generally do not make that much money so at least give them some credit for their own works.

The Purple-Red Scale measures attraction in two dimensions: who you’re attracted to and how you’re attracted to them. It is designed to replace the Kinsey Scale, created to simplify human sexuality while still allowing for complexity. Plus, I love the idea of going up to a hetero and telling them I’m a Level C5 Gay.
