"Detective Cat...... Wife? ”

Seeing this title, the corners of Gu Weijing's mouth twitched slightly.

Of course

And he can't blame his customers.

Fiverr doesn't require a lot of personal information from registrants, and doesn't require store owners to provide their own personal information.

As long as there are no buyer complaints, basically your country's age and gender are filled in casually, and no one cares about you if the gender is customized to a gunship.

It's not completely casual, Fiverr's registration policy is basically divided into two categories: the United States or foreign countries.

If you are registered in the United States, you will also need to submit an additional W2\1099 tax return to the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) on the website on time.

No matter where you are from, as long as you are registered in the United States, you will have to pay taxes.

This is not mandatory, and if you are an American, you can also fill out a foreign country as long as you are confident that you can avoid IRS scrutiny.

Outsiders browsing this store can see from the self-introduction of the detective cat storefront profile.

They were doing business with a 34-year-old woman with a university degree who was born in Algeria and would never have imagined that the owner of the online store was a native of Yangon, who had not yet reached adulthood.

The reason why Gu Weijing registered as a "female" artist is not because of the curious idea that male students on campus often like to create an account of cute girls in bikinis when they play role-playing games.

He also has his own little cleverness in it.

Gu Weijing saw an analysis of the gender of painters in a school classroom.

Gender discrimination still exists today in the high-end art market and art exhibitions.

Male oil painters are more popular and recognized than female oil painters. Male artists are also more likely to get higher bids to sign contracts.

But in online part-time appointments, the ratio is almost reversed.

At present, the ratio of male customers to female customers is almost half and half, but female artists are more likely to receive orders than male artists.

This may be due to the fact that female illustrators have more delicate brushstrokes than male illustrators, and it is easier for them to draw cute cartoon-style illustrations.

However, Gu Weijing personally feels that there is a big reason -

Figure and animation manuscripts may be able to occupy half of the network illustrator.

Imagine that.

Ling is a house who is keen to collect figurines.

Every day you spend a lot of time giving yourself to your own Makise Red Risu, Shiesta, Nakano Miku, and Asuna (all of which are popular anime characters...... The figures are replaced with a variety of armor, dresses, and corresponding anime knick-knacks.

When you finally dress up your two-dimensional wives beautifully, you want to draw a custom illustration for them as your own mobile phone wallpaper.

You'd rather see this illustration drawn on a tablet with a paintbrush with greasy fingers while eating Coke fried chicken with a two-dimensional love like you.

Or do you want a young lady painter to create for you?

Although gender online is not credible.

But you'd rather have the latter, at least for a little bit of reverie.

Otherwise, you will really feel very strange when you sleep with your phone in your arms.

This industry is the same as playing with online games, whether it is a big man who uses a voice changer or not, at least the gender column will definitely fill in the same reason as girls.

As for why you want to fill in your thirties, it's easier to understand.

It's because customers think that old artists are more experienced.

If you know that it was drawn by a teenager, even if people are actually satisfied, they will worry that you have not drawn it well, and you will not finish revising it.

Gu Weijing looked at the massive amount of news on the side,

He knows

This detective cat shop is completely famous this time.

……

When Gu Weijing finally flipped through the thousands of unread emails in his inbox, it was already early in the morning.

There are all kinds of messages, even if he only browses the languages that he can understand, and only reads the headlines at a glance and ten lines, and occasionally clicks on the emails he is interested in, it also consumes a lot of his time.

In fact, the vast majority of emails are not nutritious.

It can basically be categorized as "Wow! Hello ma'am, madam. "Detective Cat Lady, your painting was picked by Mr. Hyperion!! Or, "Is this really unscripted?" I don't believe it. "This kind of spam.

Gu Weijing basically deleted this kind of email in batches, and also blocked hundreds of guys who wanted to sexually harass themselves like the so-called jewelry merchant before.

The rest are all orders.

"User Hyperion1077 has given you a good review!"

"+1 for the number of positive reviews"

Not long after browsing the message sent to him by Mr. Hyperion, Gu Weijing received a hint from the other party that he had a good review.

He opened the virtual panel and glanced at it.

After completing this single positive review, his panel at this time became-

[Serial Quest: First Glimpse - The Way of Career (2/3)]

[Current task: Complete 20 positive orders on Fivverr, and the positive rating is over 95%]

[Current task progress: Positive (9), Medium (0), Negative (0), Terminate (1).] 】

[Current Quest Reward: Painting Appraisal (Elite Skill)]

Not counting the evaluation that Mr. Hyperion just gave himself, Gu Weijing has only done two orders of business during this time.

The lack of traffic in Fiverr's store was the main reason why he was unable to speed up his mission.

Gu Weijing originally thought that at this rate, he would not want to complete the second step of this professional task before the end of the holiday and the start of school.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected joy from the sky.

He knows that from today onwards, as long as he doesn't die, his store will probably never be short of orders.

However, since there are a large number of orders coming in, he is very careful to screen his orders.

Not all orders have value to take.

First of all, those with exceptionally low trading prices can be excluded.

At present, the vast majority of the hundreds of trade applications on his Fiverr have seen Mr. Hyperion's video, and they hope to ask him for a manuscript for ten dollars.

These transactions account for more than 95% of the total number of orders.

Except for meaningless cheap orders.

Others are surprisingly expensive.

Mr. Hyperion asked Jane Arnaud for a million dollars, mainly because it was the Tarzan Beidou of the illustration world, but also to achieve the video effect.

In fact, the price ceiling of the illustration itself is not very high.

But the numbers on these appointments really surprised Gu Weijing.

The world is so big, there are always some people who are not bad for money, or want to rub off on Mr. Hyperion's popularity.

There were several orders in the tens of thousands of dollars, and even one of these emails was a Canadian studio, asking Gu Weijing to draw a promotional poster for their animated film to be released at Easter, and offered a high price of 100,000 US dollars.

That's already the price of the top illustration studios.

The other party obviously wants to catch up with the popularity of the movie before it is officially released.

For some large-scale animated films, the cost of publicity and advertising before the release of the corresponding schedule can account for 50 percent of the total cost of the film, and the cost of investment can reach the order of 890 million or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

This Canadian film studio is definitely not so powerful, it can only be regarded as a third-tier low-cost animation, so I want to spend $100,000 to rub off on the popularity of Internet celebrity illustrators.

However, the other party made it clear that if he wanted to accept this list, he must personally cooperate with all the publicity arrangements of the other party.

As for how the painting is drawn, it is not the point.

Even if there is no request to cooperate with the announcement,

Such an order Gu Weijing is also not ready to take it.

He knew that he had learned the basics of Menzel's painting, and combined with Berriman's anatomical skills, he was able to paint works that were truly comparable to those of the masters in very specific circumstances.

The luck factor is greater than the strength factor.

In terms of real painting experience, those three serious illustrators are actually better than themselves.

After all, Menzel's experience is only the understanding of the old man Menzel, not Gu Weijing's own things.

Menzel's skills have the word "basic" in them.

It's not the foundation of painting skills, but when he uses his skills, the whole person seems to enter a unique state of tranquility.

It's not difficult to draw simple patterns that you've already thought of, copy models, or dissect the muscle lines of a figure.

However, it is difficult to incorporate your emotions and creativity.

As the judge's sister said, there is a lack of all emotions except seriousness.

The emotional table is forever fixed on the evaluation of the "simple work", no matter whether it is painted once or a hundred times, there will be no other evaluation.

If it's not your own, it's not your own.

Otherwise, relying on this sketch and adding a little creativity, it is not difficult for Gu Weijing to participate in a solo exhibition.

The quick money earned by relying on the popularity of the Internet can only be earned once, and when the traffic leaves you, how high you are praised is, how bad you fall.

Only take the colored pencil drawings that you are good at, and only draw the subjects within your ability, whether they are people or simple patterns.

That's the real long-term solution.
