As for these specific GFXs, maybe try to add a few more interesting points, like particles, or play a bit more with lighting and focus points! (Adding more visual weight to the main focus of the GFX, whether it’s an object or a character, by including colors, glow, particles, outlines, etc.)
And on a general note, try to experiment with all kinds of styles, get out of your comfort zone, try to search for references and study them, to later incoportare what you learned onto your works! (Composition, landscaping, usage of colors, etc.)

Seeing that you already tried your luck in the Talent Hub, maybe try servers such as the “Hidden Devs” server, or pretty much any developer hub. Also try to promote yourself on social media as much as possible, as well as making yourself a commission sheet/website if you don’t already have one, as it’ll make your work seem more professional and organised, which will help potential clients have a clear idea of what they’ll be getting from you and knowing your terms of service, prices, and other important information.

Overall, you can easily get commissions if you promote yourself enough, make contacts, and have a nice work ethic, so good luck on your journey! Also feel free to ask any questions, I know commissions can be scary but I’m willing to help as much as possible (from my own experience, of course).

Hey, my name is Kieran. I’ve been doing graphic design commissions for over 3 years now, and design itself for over 5, so hopefully my advice helps you!

As for your renders themselves, your composition and lighting are lacking. I’d recommend checking out @SoftGB and @i5k’s work for examples of what excellent GFX looks like.

In terms of getting commissions, I’ve never actually gotten a commission from the Talent Hub. You probably could, but I’ve never done it. Instead, I’d recommend actively posting your work on Twitter, and putting your Discord on there if you have one so people can contact you.

If you need a commission sheet, I made a tutorial on how to make one in Photoshop, for if that interests you! It’s not the best, but it might be able to help you. This commission sheet can make you RICH… must watch - YouTube
