You have to get the hang of drawing with the tablet first, that’s important.
I use a laptop as well, I highly recommend Paint Tool Sai, that’s what I use. Some other programs you could use are Gimp, and Photoshop.
On DA and tumblr, you just tell people that you take commissions. Make a commission list with pictures that you’ve drawn and a price next to the picture. For example, a sketch would be the cheapest while a full blown colored/ shaded image with multiple characters and detailed background would cost more. I also recommend charging an additional price for each additional character.
You’re going to need a paypal account if you want real money, not the points thing on DA. You need to make that point clear that you only want cash. The people who have commissioned you send the money to your paypal account and that’s it. There is a fee that paypal takes out so keep that in mind.
You name your price on commissions, I’m currently thinking about raising my prices, so it’s ok to start off low.
People should come to you for commissions.
Any computer is fine for most drawing programs.
One more thing, to get a better feel of your tablet, start by drawing what you want on paper then scan it to your laptop and draw over that in your chosen art program. Eventually you’ll be able to draw with just the tablet. hope this helps.
