My advice: Look over some portfolios and commissions in the past on the Developer Forums.

It is easy to look over some things in the past if you want to do the same, as I did with posting my first topic about my cool creations and support of my builds. I’ll provide some links on some examples of making a Portfolio and other things as well.

Links:

1. (OPEN) 2D Art Commissions! Anime, Semi-realism, etc
2. [Portfolio]Lightphenexx's Portfolio| Builder
3. Blaze'd Recruitment

Check out the #public-collaboration:public-portfolios I would consider building stuff for fun or look at sites and people’s builds for inspiration in order to start creating a portfolio It’s also a good idea to look at other users’ portfolios, maybe you could (visit different types of sites to get inspiration from like (Community server’s or here). I’d highly built in all varieties of styles it just comes down to what you’re most interested in.

And then you could put it in a portfolio that you can get commissions from.

Here’s a topic, you could try checking out:

How do I begin doing commissions?

Hi, I’ve been developing for several years now and I feel that my building skills, in particular, have advanced to the point where I’m ready to start selling builds as commissions. The only issue is that I don’t have any reputation in the development world, and I don’t have a portfolio of any kind. How would someone like me start doing commissions?

Try listing any games you’ve worked on, commissions and how much experience you have.

1. Link any screenshots/videos/links of your work, you can also create a showcase of your builds on a game so it can be easier to look at.

2. if you’ve worked for any studios (big or small) list the jobs within it and what you did. As I mentioned, it’d be beneficial if you had any more screenshots.

3. How long you’ve been on Roblox and how much experience you’ve gathered while that time. If you work on Blender or just normal studio.

4. References if anyone can vouch for you to create a level of trust with future clients.

Well, a good portfolio includes the following:

~Information of you and your work ethics
~Updated pictures of recent work
~Contact information
~Payment Method
~Organization!

I have no idea if this will help you at all, but here’s my portfolio if you want to give it a look over.

Revelted's Portfolio

[ABOUT] Hi ! I’m Revelted and I’m a builder in learning a tiny bit about me: I despise unions with a passion - I build without them I have a tendency of complaining if my build isn’t perfect (Sorry folks) I work to please the audience, not myself, so when I get compliments, it really makes my day I’m just going to put my portfolio out there for my current builds, and hope that I can find a dev team that excepts my skill level I have s…

I’m not so sure about my response, but I think looking at the DevKings video on a portfolio might be able to help. Again, not sure, but I’ll send you it right here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFNKbE9kKoo&t=435s

Portfolios are typically made so that people can learn more about you as a builder. As @loueque said, look over some other portfolios and see what they have in common.

I would also recommend posting images of your work or links to Roblox games that have your work in them. It could also help to tell people how much you generally charge and how quickly you work.
