12 Weird Things I Got Paid to Draw on Fiverr
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- The Fiverr drawing series returns with increased prices, bigger efforts, tighter deadlines and weirder requests. It is no longer DIRT CHEAP but rather KINDA CHEAP.
I post my gig on Fiverr and let my subscribers send me the drawing requests of their dreams. I make them come to life for a reasonable amount of money. If you want to buy a drawing next time, follow me on Instagram to be notified.

UA-cam algorithm decided to start recommending this video a year after uploading. Coincidentally I'm taking orders right now for the next episode of this series, but without Fiverr.

It just popped up for me lmao, never seen this channel before but I'm loving it.
we do love the youtube algorithm :)
yeah first time seeing your stuff, praise to the algorythm i suppose?! subbed and look forward to your recent work
very kuol
I see that, what the heck youtube
Personally I like seeing you draw people’s ocs, you already see so much fan art of popular characters so it’s fun to see a character you’ve literally never known about until right now
I respect your opinion but il have to dissagre 😎
I respect your opinion but disagree sorry
It’s good seeing something “original” and not just a mash up of marketable/memeable things. Some OCs fall into similar traits but I like knowing some random person created it
I respect your opinion and I agree :D
Completely in agreement lol
I requested the Kanye and it’s amazing thank you so much
Imagine you forgor that you requested it 💀
Great request
no thank you
Thank you for bringing Spider Ye into the world.
“I wonder what the purpose of having ocs really is” escaping reality lmao
Some ocs are personas too. So it's like an online avatar.
I don't create ocs but I can see how making them could give you a hit of serotonin.
I've used the same few ocs for about 4 years in a row for both art and writing, and i can confirm. Having the same characters to focus on drawing and developing the personalities of has improved my art greatly and has given me motivation to keep improving. And yeah, the escapism of my ocs somehow manages to improve my mental health a bit when reality is shit. That's probably concerning, but whatever
I mean hey, every animated show has an Oc.
@@a_bear you shoud try it, it's realy fun and you dont have to draw them just have fun with your imaginatio.😶😄
Thank you so much for the drawing. I requested the Angel and I couldn’t be happier :)))
Originally, my OCs were designed to be part of a story and a universe. Now, they’re nostalgic and comforting to draw. They also serve as a consistent subject that I feel confident drawing in any pose and manner.
kinda cringe no kizzy
Your angel oc is so good
Nice oc! It was very cool

I actually love seeing people draw other people's OC's. Maybe that isn't for you, and that's fine, but what comes to mind is how much fun and excitement that person is getting from having some life breathed into a character they have created, and I think that is pretty cool.
Also, I agree with a comment below from Stabby Stabs, you always see fanart, but it's refreshing seeing new characters that haven't necessarily seen the light of day.
kinda cringe no kizzy
At the most basic level, any fanart that is commissioned of you is technically a drawing of someone's OC. We just typically don't think of it that way once the media reaches publication.
I think a good handful of people who create characters do actually intend to use them in some way, either in published media or just as a means of improving their skills at character design + consistently drawing a character + writing interesting ideas/stories. (They then take these skills into producing media we consume.)
I understand the concern of detachment with your audience over the subject matter. I would probably argue that portraits of those ordering the commission, people's inside jokes, and other things you've drawn for this series in the past have about the same level of connection with the audience, where only the commissioner gets the full benefit of the piece. I think that's fine, they are the one paying for it after all. If the chicken-headed man was an "original character" instead of a random subject, I don't really think the experience changes much for the viewer. I guess it depends on your viewpoint.
Maybe in the future you could be more selective in picking designs that you personally find interesting if you decide to continue drawing these sorts of pieces. I do think it's well within your rights to be honest about your thoughts on people's OCs. Based on some of the text in the commission order details it seems like at least some portion of the audience expects that honesty as well, and... well, if they didn't before I'm sure they do now! Haha
I love your videos, this is a great one as always! Your skill at art and personality is what keeps me watching, not the subject matter of your individual pieces!
P.S. Challa! You know the answer to the "Do they roleplay with them?" question! You've drawn art for D&D campaigns before!
Person with a bunch of ocs here- I make them bc I like designing characters and story telling.
you are probably the weirdest person ive ever seen
But Challa the whole reason we watch these videos is to watch you draw peoples wierd oc's and suffer while doing so! JK but I do find it interesting seeing peoples OC's, atleast not any less than elon musk as a meercat or kayne west in a f1. Great video and Great drawings as always!
Free my man Payday! He ain’t done nothing wrong!! But fr my piece is incredible 😳 thank you chalada!
I wanna touch on the oc thing- a lot of people have ocs to inspire them and work on their storytelling skills. But what inspires one person might not inspire you which is why it might not make an entertaining video. That’s why I tried to give you things to comment on/ make fun of in my request without overwhelming you with boring furry info. But maybe next time make a no ocs or anime rule? Though that might be risky- Don’t be afraid to roast the ocs! Everyone commissioning you knows you speak your mind so go for it! I expected to get roasted much harder than I did for that buff prison furry and I woulda loved it 👁
I think the new pricing fits, your drawings have a lot of time put in.
definitely, considering he even goes into overtime often just to ensure the piece doesn’t look unfinished. what a chad.
Thank you for using a lot of colors on the first painting, a lot of people interpret the ancient Greek aesthetic as completely gray, probably thanks to movies and modern adaptations, when in reality their architecture and craftsmanship used a lot of colors
Interesting point, I didn't even think about this when making that painting
I don’t know anything about the old paintings but would it have been more vibrant when it was first painted? So now they look dull in museums and such?
The plain white statues we are so familiar with today were originally painted, but the paint has come off 1000+ years later.

1) I kind of enjoy seeing other people's "OC"s when they are unique in their appearance (like that spider thing. Not my kind of thing, but interesting to see)
2) If people watch your channel, they should know that you are honest about your opinion. They should know what they are getting into, and therefore you shouldn't feel ashamed of being honest if you don't like the OC.
4:40 the best one in my opinion, the strong light and dark walls atmosphere with the red shadow colour is just… fabulous 🥳
No wonder the 19 dollars tip
OCs are just characters like any others that haven't seen mainstream publication if you ask me. For a lot of people they're a character to explore through writing, art, roleplay and whatever other creative mediums they find their way into like video games and animation.
I like them, even if someone's OC isn't my cup of tea there's some crazy creativity on display out there. And I've always found it really cool to see characters drawn in different styles, particularly very transformative ones like the "de-animefication" you tend to do with anime-style characters. Same goes for furry characters/fursonas, they can look wildly different depending on how the artist portrays them. Seeing an artist that isn't a part of a certain community (like anime or furry) draw characters from within that community often leads to really cool and fresh results too.
the Honest Trailer Voice guy reading the descriptions makes this extra hilarious
i haven't seen other commenters bring this up but OCs tend to be very close attachments to people and can embody alot of things to the creator
most of mine are story related but for me they're more than just models for my art, they're characters i spent alot of time and energy with creating and writing.
not everyone bonds w their ocs like that and fully characterize them but its a good inside look !!
i enjoy seeing you draw pretty much anything but if you aren't enjoying a piece then it might be better limiting your commissions on fiverr to things you do enjoy doing
This pretty much sums up why I create ocs as well.
The spider oc was really cool. Its always entertaining to see you draw really unique ocs and translate them into your style.
Mr. Gundla4 not doing anything for Dirt Cheap anymore, smh.
is that a j-
Suspiciously wealthy furries make the art world go round
Bruh that classical-style painting from the beginning was awesome. The suffering definitely came through in your figures. The narration that accompanied it was a nice touch, too; I enjoyed hearing about how your tastes and style have progressed over time. I admit I’ve never really understood the anime obsession but I think you make a good point about its accessibility, especially when you’re starting out. Great work!!
Im one of those people who don't understand ocs, but i do enjoy seeing you draw them, lol. Maybe an idea could be asking for a little more info on the character, not for the drawing but just to give you something more to talk about, i do understand the threat that brings along with it though.
I think OC's are just there to have like a consistent drawing subject, or make certain picture series. At least thats what I use em for
I've never done OCs before and recently made a few for that exact reason. I wanted some characters I could just, draw without having to design things or go as deep into reference.
I use mine as an escape, not that my life is anything crazy, but it’s fun to use your imagination and see how far it goes. You can create your own shows with your own characters just in your head. But I also think it’s interesting how the brain works and manages to create these moving pictures that don’t actually exist and you’re just fabricating them.
To some degree sure, but also nah. If that were the only purpose of having them, I would've stopped at 5 OCs, instead of making >70 of them.
3:34 a skull dog was the last thing I expected in this vid. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
hi challa i really love the drawing you did for me it looks dope in your style!!! thank you again
PTBR speaker here: You didnt butchered the "Azevedo" at all. In fact, you pointed me at an artist from my own country I didnt know about and got to check his work in the process. I am pretty sure just caring enough to try, and the shoutout itself probably made this artist happy.
Thank you for taking us along the ride of creating beautiful stuff and talking it through =)
Honestly it's fun and hilarious to see these ppls weird af ocs. Watching you turn them into painted skilled af pieces is so cool to watch
I got like 20+ OCs that are written up, I do them for fun and to satiate my boredom!
For someone like me, it's really important to always be occupied with something, whether it is writing a story, thinking of headcanons, making comics, doing all sorts of art, brainstorming, trying to find new art forms, it keeps me sane!
Plus I constantly get ideas and If I don't fulfill them, it just becomes a pure pain to keep on doing anything else xd
I always look forward to the fiver videos as it’s interesting seeing you draw different subjects, plus we get to see your working process, and I find that enjoyable to observe and take notes on.
Thank you. Honestly.
Your sharing of art, your process from vision to completed piece, and your talent resonates with so many of us.
Lots of respect and appreciation for these videos.
Challa I don't know how to tell you this but ocs aren't a niche. It's actually the most popular thing. It's literally just making designs you can use for stories, art, or anything. Believe it or not but it's exactly like having a favorite character from a show. Why does this character design exist? Cause they can be used in story telling.
Oc story telling can just be more personal then being for profit.
Only 35 comments? I'm not the kind se of dude who leave comments, but your videos deserve so much, I guess I'll Just say I LOVE YOU
nice hamster
"What have I done to attract so many furries"
You're an artist on the internet.
And a good one at that.
It's only natural...
personally i roleplay with OCs! i also talk about them with my close friends and have fun developing them and coming up with stories and designs for them. sometimes i write. they've always helped me hone my creativity!
I don't have any OCs myself but it's fun to see this weird requests and you execute them! I'm okay with the OCs as long as they're interesting! Some are a little more boring than others but overall, I enjoy it.
Lmao perfect timing! I was just binging challa vids when this popped up :D
“I wonder what the purpose of OCs is”
Tbh I always wonder what life would be like *without* OCs because they take up so much of like,, my Head Space and I’m just thinking about them allll the time, I wonder how much more I could get my life in order if I wasn’t thinking about fake people so much XD
It can be a lot of fun drawing other people’s ocs. Sure, you get some designs you’re personally not into, but there can be a lot of hidden gems.
I personally like seeing OC's because it's a glimpse into what other people enjoy. They're all so different and similar at the same time. The things people create and can draw astonish me, I love seeing it.
OC's can have a story or it can be an online persona a person uses. I personally used my OC for both. When I was younger, I would roleplay as my OC, now I just enjoy the nostalgia my OC brings me.
Whoever commissioned Kanye confirmed WAVY!!!🌊🌊
Hearing the overdetailed oc art description at 11:50 gave me anxiety...
Getting commissions this detailed always makes me afraid that I will miss something because there seems to be too much to take into account x)
Great work anyway
Thank you for this Challa! I requested the four anime d00ds at the bar, hope it wasn’t too cringe for you to draw lmao
Morally speaking I feel like you should 100% trace stuff while learning art because that can just genuinely help in learning certain aspects. However I don't think anything should be traced when your selling that art.
taking those descriptions and turning them into pure gold is hella entertaining
“I’m not mad. I’m just suffering.”
Bruh 💀
This is the first time I've seen your channel and I knew I had to sub when you said "I hate this" I like the honesty and commentary
I always loved those super outlandish requests that made no sense at all, where I'm standing in the lobby of the Tattoo shop listening to some guy for two hours explaining what he wants me to draw only to come to the conclusion that he won't be able to pay for a full back piece, so he asks if we can shrink it down and put it on his arm... Random, just reminded me of those days hearing some of those requests you got. I left there, hated it. I do portraits, I hate doing anime, I'm not a cartoonist.
The Rooster painting looks pretty rad, also the second one xD
Edit: they all look pretty rad
I love seeing how you come up with those design cuz I personally myself is motivated to become an artist because there's no people that can brought my exact idea even when I do myself it's like only 75% accurate to what I had in mind. But it's just feel really good to brought your ideas from fantasy to reality
the blue haired alien one was actually sick though
His face was bit misshapen but over still good
The Black Angel lady was beautifully drawn as well as the first one. That info about the prison was cool.
I don't have an issue with tracing to make story boards but I don't trace for the final result because it looks so flat and stiff.
I also don't like anime style.
I make comics with my OCs but ik some people just like them for comfort or just drawing/writing exercise
i don't know what you are expecting doing fiver commissions rly except "oc drawers", like they are paying you for it so of course theyre gonna have it be their own character 🤔 if you wanted to draw popular stuff you're interested in, surely you could just... draw it?
personally i really enjoy watching you draw peoples ocs
Furrys are attracted to good artists, so I'd say you're doing something well if they're reaching out
that persona samurai girl is actually from a series called megami tensei which was reinterpreted as shin megami tensei its a demon called yoshitsune
That angel piece was so dope!
was gonna go to sleep but got me a challa notification, you know I had to do it to 'em
At least people pay you.
90% of request would love to give me an hourly payment of 2€. And when I tell them the actual price (like 210€ for a 100 frames storyboard) they ghost me.
I think it'd be cool if someone gave you their oc and there'd be a way to make it so that you actually a. Like drawing it b. Like the idea/finished product c. It makes sense, in whatever context
I saw that you almost suffered trying to draw some of those ocs, some turned good some ehh, lol.. so it's be good to see try to maybe make them enjoyable with your artistic freedom, if the person asks for it? Of course I know limited time makes it really hard but then you get pieces that kinda flop
Also, as a traditional "artist" 'tracing' by using your eyes and training your memory is just the best advice I could give. Digital -artists-? work differently, I guess.
I was a big fan of yours backin 2017-2018? so idk why I suddenly stopped but I'm glad I saw your vids again !!
I like the OC content. also like your honest opinion and it makes sense but this is some good content
These types of videos are the reason i started to sub you, i really like them and also your merch seems quite neat.
this was rad, admittedly I liked seeing your drawings of people's OCs (particularly the angel and the prison furry) it's cool seeing how you interpret other people's characters with limited knowledge/reference! Would be interesting to see OC drawings without ANY reference art, just text discriptions, and see how different your art is from the person's own OC art!
Ahh i really love how you draw, enjoying and i'm learning
I can't believe you actually got Jon Bailey to read lines for you!
This motivated me to 3D model a man dropkicking a child in self-defense. Do not ask how.
For the furry one, i too would be compelled to tip generously for such amazing work. It looked amazing and badass AF
Missed a chance to do the "behold! Plato's man" bit with the first piece.
For a second I was like oh who is this guy than I looked again and was like HOLY SHIT
That spider demon is definitely for some Hazbin Hotel roleplay server, isn't it- 😮
10:54 my man is editing with Davinci Resolve I see. very cool man! I use it too.
No clue why but the image where you used how I met your mother as a ref made me laugh
OCs are basically me drawing stuff I played in dnd
in my opinion an oc is good to test how your style has changed
I knew I recognize that thumbnail.
I knew it was Yoshitsune genderbent the moment I saw this video thumbnail.
Oh well, it did made me click this video, but stay through the end anyway for the cool arts you made.
Him: getting 124$ in 3 hours.
Me: 5$ in 5 hours RIP
I'm addicted to seeing ocs.
To be honest I wouldn't think about the oc stuff too much because every single character you see on the internet or on paper, whether they were made by a professional video game company or by Some random 12 year old girl, every character you see is an original character even if they're not that original.
I'm honestly a tad confused. I understand if you aren't excited to draw furries, bc that's not everyone's thing. But OCs or human characters-- is it just the fact the buyers don't give you a eubstantial backstory for them to properly create a scene? Or is it the fact the buyers don't give you something open-ended/force you to make something not withon your style.
I'm only curious because, arguably, novelists, illustrators, and comic artists all have OCs 🤷🏽♂️ just bc they describe things and its gonna be utilized for something professional/published, doesn't mean their OCs are any different than a person with a standalone OC.
Ok.
because like he said, they're the only one who understands the backstory... nobody cares about edgy oc with tragic backstory number 100
Juice Ok but, he's made other commissions before based off of a character that isn't his that he enjoyed doing, aka the long form ones off of fiverr. If he didn't like the commission, he can easily flat out deny them? So clearly, he doesn't mind doing it to an extent, what i'm asking is, where's the limit? Does it need to be for a professional publication in order for him to enjoy it, bc if so, then he should just bump up the price to make up for the fact he's not getting the exposure through a big-client.
Y'all are seeing this as a 'lol edgy ocs suxx' standpoint view while im seeing it like "Man my dude, u are legit putting a huge pause button on this series bc in the end of the day, most commissions are gonna be an OC, even from an industry standpoint 😬"
tbh, the rooster philosopher was both a strangely funny idea and a rather cool executed work of art…
really good plug on the shirts man!
Hey Challa, while watching this vid I noticed that you had a rigged mesh to use for poses. Do you know where I could find one?
Oh my god finally! My day is saved
Zhongli spear near the end 😂🤣
I love the way the samurai girl dude came back and asked for a sexy version
Its nice to see the other side of the spectrum the fiver creators themselves
can confirm i fucking love watching you draw other ppls ocs
the majority of online artists have oc's, so it's kinda weird that u think it's a small community. but don't accept oc commissions if u don't wanna draw them, also for 4 characters + background u should've charged like 300$
To put it simply, OCs are just a small (or large) form of storytelling for a specific character.
OC person here and I use my human OCs for stories - trying to write a comic! - and my two furry characters have different purposes. My sona is to represent me, whilst the character is to just have fun drawing and seeing other people draw them. I think that last one is pretty common with OC stuff. And I like seeing you draw OCs. Even though I don't know them, your art is entertaining to watch regardless! You could draw a pile of shit and I'd still find it entertaining to watch ngl
What does Oc mean i don’t know what it is?
@@rutwikdakhore6747 OC stands for original character. so a character someone has made up.
that was a very exhausting $795,
2 hours of intense focus is very draining, and even after all that effort,we have to compromise for a "suck" end result because
we're limited by the hours.
there are ton of jobs where you do nothing at the office yet still got paid $7000, it's kinda unfair
16:25 I love how he immediately corrected himself XD
You used a how I met your mother reference!!! Nice
xD the kanye art section aged like fine milk
I...roleplay with my ocs when I can. I do alot of diffrent roleplay so I have ocs that are just throwaways...But when I can I use my mains yeah, its just satisfying making a world for them, fitting abilities and such into how it would translate into other worlds for rp. So yeah for me thats why I love oc's
Not me being happy to see a 2-D from Gorillaz fanart at 0:14 aaaahhh
yo! tbh i like that you speak ur mind and im sure a good amount of ur viewers also do. no one really enjoys glossed up sugar coated vids. they get old v fast yk. ngl ur comments and judgments are 60% of why i still watch ur channel. anyway keep it up! always here 4 support!!
0:44 this could easily be taken outta context but maybe that was the whole point 😳
Bro your channel is fire. AMAZING CONTENT!
