TOPIC | Price my art!
I usually take commissions for USD, but wondering what some new types of offerings would go for within the FR community here. I want to open up an art shop thread later, so this seems the natural step before doing so.

Its important to remember the golden rule.

1 dollar = 100 gems = 100k treasure

So going off your carrd prices,,, I'd say that your icons would be worth 1500 gems and your badges would be 4000 gems. See how the pricing works?

@PidgeGriff Here I got a way that will work for uploading your pictures. Go to this site: https://www5.lunapic.com/editor/ Upload your picture. Click the button that says to save OR share on imgur. It will then give you an Image URL code-- insert that code into the img areas on the post. For example... I will use the method right now. [img]https://i.imgur.com/2lam1CI.png[/img]

@Enoch Thanks again! I love using Google Drive for sending WIPs to my customers but getting the outside direct linking to work is always such a headache;;

There we go! Everything is all uploaded now. I've included a link to my own website, but I'm also thinking of redoing my pricing in general using feedback from here.

So please price at what you would be willing to pay for a pieces of this quality.

Thanks so much!

Hey! Your art is high quality so for the mini that you showed in the first example, assuming you were working with original lineart I’d say its worth 5-7 USD, and if you’re working off a base it’d probably be worth around 3-4 USD.

The simple sketches you showed would probably go for around 10-12 USD for busts/half bodies and 15-18 for fulls.

The colored portrait I’d say around 25-30 USD? I’m less sure with that one, but a big factor there would be how long it takes you and the level of effort put into it. Calculating it out to an hourly wage can be helpful! If the price you sell it at ends up equaling less than like $10 an hour you might need to up your prices imo.

These are just my best guesses, and to get your art to sell you might have to play around with pricing a bit, but in general I’d say waiting a bit longer for someone to commission you is better than undervaluing your hard work, but that’s just me!!

I hope this helps! Your art is really cool <333
