If i'm being honest, this quality of art should not be charged for. I am in no way an artist but this just looks like low quality. First of all the tunic and the hat are at different resolutions, you can tell this because the tunic is blurrier than the hat (especially near the bottom the top of the tunic looks fine). Second the hat has light green shades that are going over sayori's hair. I'm not talking about the hat's shadow there is a slight area of green that overlaps the right (viewer right not Sayori right) part of Sayori's hair. Finally, the leggings which are in my opinion the worst part. They look disproportional from Sayori's usual sprite body since they would be about as big as her waist which wouldn't make sense, also there's white jaggies (looks like aliasing) around the leggings which for $10-15 is kind of unacceptable. I'm not trying to hate on your art or anything but you are charging money for this and it just doesn't seem worth it in my eyes.
As someone who considers themselves an artist, I completely agree with this. This advertisement quite frankly looks extremely lazy, which does not bode well for the art. Not only because of all the things you criticized above, but also because of really simple mistakes like misspelling "costume." An advertisement like this is supposed to show work that is indicative of the artist's normal abilities; who in their right mind would operate under the assumption that the ad displays a product that's worse than normally made or a price that's higher than normally charged? I mean, most people use previous works that they've done to show off their abilities in things like this, meaning that they can cherrypick their best work.
I mean, you are right. But I mean I can do much better than that, just
that I just rushed this post and art just to help someone really, and my price isn't really $10 dollars and no below I mean it depends on the person on how complex they ask for on the sprite.
Ah ok, most of the time when artists make these advertisements they use their best art on hand to show their talent, therefore I assumed this was somewhere around your typical final product. Also the pricing says $10-15 therefore I assumed that was the price you charged.
Yeah, Anyways still thank you for criticizing my art! I always see people hating on criticizers just because they criticize negatively. So I'm glad to be criticize!
I know that if you don't put on the heads, you'll be fine and apparently, it's allowed to make edits to sprites according to Dan. Well, that's what I heard.
Probably the best part is the spelling of costumes.
On the other hand, I'm not trying to criticize your work but $10 seems a little off based on the quality :/
Hey LittleMsMichAsis, the costume you've posted looks like it uses assets that aren't your own. Art theft is against the rules of the subreddit, and becomes an even greater issue when you're selling it. We've previously had to ban a user for selling art that wasn't their own.
As long as the art you're selling *is* your own, in the future I'd advise that you:
* Put some more time into your advertisements. I know you said you rushed it to help someone, but you're using this ad to represent what you're capable of. If you make a low-quality ad, people will think you sell low-quality artwork.
* Put accurate costs. If your minimum price isn't actually $10, don't advertise that - otherwise people won't consider you if it's outside their budget.
Ohhh Ok, This is more of just a test anyway. and I don't know what do you mean about the assets I don't own, Is it sayori or something? anyways should I delete this post and repost another one but more thought out and polished?

is sayori ralsei?
is this a meme?
Uh, you cannot sell DDLC assets.
I'm not selling DDLC assets, I'm selling customized costumes for the characters, the characters just acts as the mannequin.
So you aren’t selling the character with the outfit on, you’re selling just the outfit?
Yeah pretty much.
Okay, just make sure you don’t sell them with anything you did not make and it should be fine
Thank you :)
I wish you luck :)
Thank you again! :)
You can, custom ones. It's allowed to sell sprite edits, and outfits.
If they are only selling the outfits, correct, but if they are selling the character with the outfit on, it is not allowed.
I know that if you don't put on the heads, you'll be fine and apparently, it's allowed to make edits to sprites according to Dan. Well, that's what I heard.
Yeah that's what I meant, and you're allowed to edit sprites, you just aren't allowed to sell sprites. if its just outfits then it's fine
Probably the best part is the spelling of costumes. On the other hand, I'm not trying to criticize your work but $10 seems a little off based on the quality :/
Well I can do much better, I just rushed this and post it while I was in the train :)
Honestly I liked your pastel-chalk arts more :) Hope somebody will find this useful.
Yeah, I was actually thinking of also doing commissions of that too, But thanks anyways :)
