Art / Craft Trades: ASK




Trades - Closed by SweetDuke Trades - Closed by SweetDuke Trades - Closed by SweetDuke

GENERAL RULES:

  • If you'd like to go for a trade with me, comment here. I'll note the ones I'd trade (instant trading for those in my wishlist below!)
  • My trading partner should have similiar quality works/skills as I have
  • Agreement/discussion of the theme/characters/poses/background/details always goes before-hand through notes
  • I ask for wips of main idea/sketch/progression for corrections or changes that might be made
  • I also can show any wip progression that my partner would like to see
  • I can seem picky, but I only want the artist to make it even better, so do not hesitate to say out the things about my part as well (red lines really prefered)
  • Those, who ask me about the trade, should finish first (to be sure you won't be cheated)
  • I always take the same quality/effort on my trades as well as commissions, so I expect quality from my partner too
  • The progress of my part of trade can be seen in My To-Do List Journal
  • If I'm finished/almost done with my part and you are no longer able to continue on yours, my part will be stopped(until our agreed settlement)/deleted/sold/gifted to somebody else and I won't ask any trade from you in future.
  • No mature themed (18+) pieces with my characters unless I ask for it
  • The characters I mainly ask to see in my partner's part are these:Ref sheet: Luka III (final) by Drerika

    Mature Content

    Timeja Ref Sheet by Drerika
    Ref sheet: Argerii (finall) by Drerika
    Ref sheet: Danila by Drerika and a rather complex deity char whose ref will remain rather in secret xD

Drawings:

  • I usually go with this kind of equality: fullbody for fullbody, chibi for chibi and etc. UNLESS my partner is way better than me
  • I can offer/looking for: chibi, headshot/bust, fullbody, painting etc. (+/-backgrounds)
  • Shipping is optional, if my partner wants I can ship IF:
:bulletblue: I'll receive their part for me too;
:bulletblue: their part is digital, I'll ask for a good quality print, equal format of my part;
:bulletblue: they can't/don't want to ship their part, they must pay me the shipping fee (through PayPal ($/€) or DeviantArt points:points:)


Crafts:

  • For me the main point for equality is money (example: my one piece is 10$ while my partenr's one piece is 3$ and second one is 7$ that are both 10$ too, which is equal for mine)
  • Looking for: pendants, keychains, buttons, sculptures, plushes, art dolls, fursuit parts, clothes (hoodies, t-shirts), bags (mostly things I'm not able to make myself / it's hard to make / simply amazing)
  • Can offer: plushes, pendants, sculptures/figurines, keychains, bowls/boxes, art dolls, fursuit parts, bags/cases, dreamcatchers etc.


Other:

  • The same money equality
  • Looking for: supplies (air dry clay, pin joints and disks, elastic, foam); fabrics (faux fur, fleece, minky, mohair, artificial fur for miniatures); eyes/noses/pawpads/jaws for plushes/dolls/fursuit heads; hair/fur for dolls/plushes/fursuit parts (hair clip extentions, lamb locks, ramie, yarn, wefts)
  • Can offer: supplies (watercolors, brushes, crayons, oil pastels), frames for artworks, some taxidermy (skulls, bird wings and legs, bones, feathers, horns, teeth), shells/stones, lithuanian books (how to draw flowers; folk whistles), grey faux fur

Please follow me elsewhere

May 26, 2021
I keep getting watches and all other support here, but PLEASE just follow me on https://www.furaffinity.net/user/drerika/ I'm active there, I read comments and notes there, my gallery is up to date THERE with all the stuff I never showed on DA, and I accept commissions only there. So just make an account there in case you really wanna watch me rolling :D since I'm no longer using DA anymore and won't post anything here either. DA will remain as a stash for art commissions others could download and it has a nice feature with thumbnails so good for showcasing my commission info with examples and that is ALL I'm gonna use it for from now on. It already was hard to maintain equally both galleries until now, so I'm only focusing on FA truly, sorry

The new version of DA...

May 24, 2020
So I just tried to find things that were handy in the old version, and my conclusion is pretty much the same as the rest of the users about this new version of DA. The old version wasn't the best ( as I liked the 2013-2015-ish version most), but hey, it was bearable as all the previous features were working. And now they completely fucked it up all over. Even the basic stuff disappeared. Sadly DA never listened to their users and I doubt they will, as from the very beginning of this new version release, nobody were happy about it. Reading all the comments and journals makes me upset, how such a big site can collapse, as a lot of artists are already abandoning it. Even tho I really don't like all of this, I'll keep submitting (my art was started in this site so kinda having sentiments xD), but it seems I won't be able to do normal activity as I used to do (I can't even find how to maintain the groups I'm admin in). So I'll just go with the flow and do basic stuff. I'll try to learn all

Poseable art doll commissions OPEN! ASAP

Mar 23, 2020
Poseable art doll is such a craft similar to a plushy, but has a wire armature inside which lets the body and limbs to be flexible and maintain a pose. Paws, face, and some other things are sculpted from clay. So I'm sitting here with extra loaf of wire and clay, and need these gone asap, so I'm offering some art doll commissions. Examples of my previous similar old crafts are here: I can do from ~15cm high chibi dolls to ~50cm high. So the price can vary from 60 eur to 300 eur or more (depending on size and character design). Payment plans are acceptable. You can comment a size with a ref to your character so I can give quote. Any species...

Comms reopening,prices + instream commihes OPEN

Jan 6, 2020
Hey allI'm kinda back for this month but I'll see how it will go the next month as I'll be having job practice for around next 4 months.PRICESAnyway, wanted to let you know that another year passed, and I got quite of interest in my art thus I can't cope with all the work flow xD... For that my most popular digital commission types (fullbodies, complex backgrounds, chibies, instream sketches) will have a price increase of around 15-20%. The new prices will be added before I'll reopen up.REOPENINGThe reopening date is unknown as yet I'm unsure when I'll be finished with last bigger commission and if I'll have time to do new ones during my j...
