Considering raising commission prices ^^
a year ago
I just want to note for all current commissioners that for you the prices will remain what they are currently or what we've agreed upon (in the case I'm doing work for you right now!)This is for once this cycle is all cleared up and finished. ^^ As it stands currently, I feel I have my prices set too low once again. I think for the quality of work I'm offering and with my willingness to go step by step through the process with the commissioner and make changes I should be afforded a bit more on certain tiers of commission. I've been meaning to stick with art and keep it as my career, and so far I'm about two years dedicated to this being my only stream of income! I wasn't thinking of hiking things up too much, just 10 or 20 USD to things like my fully rendered comms, creating a better tiering system (Sketch, colored sketch, lined, colored lines, shading, etc.) as well as finally officially offering sketch comms for a cheaper price and things like that!
I was hoping to generally pose this as a dialogue, since I think it'd be important to understand what you guys, especially those of you who plan to work with me and those of you who repeatedly give patronage, think would be a fair price for my work, or if any of you think in the first place that this is a good idea. Any comments are appreciated, and thank you guys for your continued support, it really does mean a lot for me and I'm endlessly thankful qvq

It's easy to be intimidated by a lot of people who think commissions should be cheaper who also haven't paid for say, a magic the gathering card.
Which costs 2,300$ Starting pay.
Which is considered unethical and sloppy, low pay for illustrations like that in the business.
with that in mind charge whatever the fuck you want dude
Thank you! x3
I appreciate the transparency, it means a lot to me!
