Less detail, sketches, simple shading, lineart

General
So a lot of people appreciate and love my work although the prices for best detailed pieces are too much for them and that's,fine. I start giving huge discounts but not much changed, the situation is like that right now so I came up with an idea. So I can make less detailed variations of artworks, linear, simple shading, more sketchlike look... And the prices should be lower. But I am still not sure how much so feel free to discuss, suggest, give more ideas I am open minded so don't hesitate. I will still have this option for detailed versions and maybe I even make better prices for that. I want this to work for both of us. Times are tough and I won't lie about it. I think this can motivate people and give access to those who just don't have,funds for my top tier art. And just to say it once more even though my top tier is higher priced I still give 50/50 payment option to make it far more aproachable. For now this is what I came up with.

That said, I don't actually have a character or whatever I want to commission art off at this time.
but have you tried offering payment plans?.
Many artists use that method to make prices more accessible to their clients, you can keep high prices but divide them into as many parts or phases as the commission has.
and to avoid awkward moments. Payment in advance for each stage
You can send them reminders about the part that is still due to move forward.
I hope it helps you, big hugs 🤗
