Portfolio Up - Custom Cartoon Logos & Illustrations...
 

Well, I just finished the initial version of my online portfolio at:

Julia's Online Portfolio v.1.0

and am ready to start accepting commissions, finally! I know it's a little bare, but I wanted to get it up ASAP and I will add to it as time allows. I'm hoping to add some non-exclusive cartoon content in the near future as well, so I'll keep everyone posted.

A quick sample:

Very nice! :thumbsup

Looks great babe :thumbsup You can double those prices easily also.

Well, I'm still fairly unknown in the community, so I want to keep my prices lower at first... people are willing to pay more for work they trust and need incentives to take risks with unknown artists. I just figured out how much I wanted to make an hour and then estimated the times...

Julia, I LOVE the work that you did for my site! Stunning! :thumbsup

I was wondering if you liked it... figured you just hadn't gotten to it yet. =D

Very nice and cheap too :thumbsup

Hey MissGrim, how much is it to make a cartoon character of somebody? Like I give you a pic and you make me into a cartoon??

Found it! Duh! How quick is a turn around?

Well, like it says in the pricing section of my portfolio (hint, hint =P) a single person illustration is fifty dollars for plain cartoon or anime style, and an additional 50% of that (seventy-five dollars total) if you want art nouveau style. It helps if you have more than one photo to reference, too, since just one photo can give an artist an inaccurate impression of a person they've never met.

If you're interested, all of my contact info is listed within my portfolio, and you can see some of the samples where I've already turned a couple of people into cartoons of themselves...

Hehe... yeah, I tried to keep my layout fairly simple at first. =P

Turnaround depends on how many orders I have... currently I'm only working on two other projects, and turnaround could be as swift as twenty-four hours or less.

Great, I'll get into contact with you :)

great stuff from a great girl. i hope you get a ton of work.

Very nice work. You have email

Beautiful work Julia, awesome! :thumbsup

Looks good! Your site is bookmarked! Dont change the url on me :thumbsup

Really nice work!

good stuff. :)

Excellent work MissGrim
I really like the one you did for me. :thumbsup :thumbsup

Great work! Looks very good. I bet a lot of people here want their own pic in a cartoon style!

very nice work Julia, I'll be hitting you up for some work, soon.

Fabulous! I will be contacting you soon after I get back from vacation to discuss some cartoon logos :)

Wow... thanks for all of the compliments! I've been fairly poverty-stricken for a while, so I figured that instead of scrounging for money and feeling bad about it I would just get my portfolio up ASAP and see if I couldn't get some honest work. =D

Plus, drawing naked people is so much more fun than when I was a "real" graphic designer (before my health went downhill) and I was forced to draw things like tires and buildings. Pfft.

Erm... bump? =P

Two jobs so far that I am working on right now, still room for more before the weekend...

are you voodoo's new girlfriend?

some good work there :)

Julia is an honest and hardworking individual. She has my massssssive cock of approval.

nice. girl style :-)...you could improve the shading on the naime style images a bit and dont call your normal style with inserted anime eyes anime style..anime style involves more than just anime eyes ... shading is totally different and such...I just had to say this , no offense.. other than that, no complaints :)

Wow, that's a nice site, congrats and good luck :)

Fast work. Highest quality. Easy to work with. I couldn't be happier with the illustration she did for me. Highly recommend.

Julia was great to work with. The best thing you can do is just give her a little background about yourself (if you plan to have your own toon done) And a picture. I left the rest up to her! She did a great job. I will use her on a regular bases for projects.I'm so happy to find someone who is easy to work with and really seems to know what you want without asking 50000 questions :-)

Nasty Nun aka Princess Mandy:thumbsup

Not bad ! :thumbsup

No offense taken, but just so you know I can call any of my styles anything I want. I think anybody could improve anything that they do, but keep in mind that the samples on my site are a sample of what a potential customer will get for the price that I quote. I don't really think that what you have in mind when you think of an anime-style illustration is worth only $50.00. If I'm doing a project for myself (where time and payment are not issues) or a project where the customer wants more detail and is willing to pay for it, of course it's going to turn out better than the standard, inexpensive option... but what I show for sample work on my site has to match what I'm willing to produce for the price that I charge.

Here's mine, I like it! :)
