End Times?

Well, things are not right in the world. I have some time on my hands in the evenings, and a project percolating in the back of my brain for more than a month now. To that end, I was thinking of a two-step action in the upcoming future regarding commissions. I've never accepted commissions before. I've never taken requests before. What is drawn by me is just what I choose to do, when the fancy strikes me, doing what strokes my Id.
However, as of late I've gotten the fire under me to take on a larger project, and I've made a few under-the-radar hints at it to a few people, but this is going to be the formal announcement:
I'm going to take one commission so I can work out the kinks of how to do commissions, and then I'm going to throw down and offer a 10-page comic-style commission. Right now, it would be a 'mind-control superheroic incredibly p0rny' story starring the commissioner's character and a supervillain or two. Currently, I have a story in mind, but through conversation with the commissioner it would be more than likely their wants, quirks, and fetishes would turn the story in a direction they'd like outside the rough script I had in my head.
Originally, the 10 pager was just going to be another one of my own works that got posted to FA, but after conversation with others they let me know I could be more productive if I opened my doors to contract work. The pull to make money is strong, particularly in a long-haul necessary to make a comic.
I have no Paypal, yet. I have no pricing. I have no concept of what is standard for handling commissions, outside of a few conversations I've had with helpful furs. The only thing I know is that the comic will be 10-ish pages, full color, with backgrounds. It's going to be a beast that would cost hundreds of dollars from the commissioner, but I think it would be well worth the money. I wouldn't even be able to set down an official price until well after discussions with anyone serious about commissioning me. (Someone with a winged, tentacled spider, for example, would be charged more in a direct relationship to the OMGWTFHARDTODRAW factor) Further, the one-off piece I plan to do would be to serve as an example of the sort of quality and background work I intend to have included in every page of the comic.
This post is just to see if there's interest out there in regards to commissioning me. One page, background, multiple panels if desired, up to two characters, using color and cell shading similar to http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4188802/ , and I won't do the big squicky things like scat, urination, vore, pedo, etc. After doing comparative price-shopping around FA for non-dissimilar artists, I am thinking the price would run around 50 bucks, but subject to vary based on details, difficulty in drawing the subject material, and subject matter itself.
So, I turn the question over to you... who would be interested in one, the other, or both?
