Price bump
14 years ago
General
Okay, first thing's first: prices I've already arranged with people will NOT change. Those are set in stone. If I've told you a price estimate for a piece you want to get done soon, it'll stay that price for that commission (this includes the arranged orgy picture and the UKFur group picture, if I manage to get the chance to draw it!). This counts for anything arranged from now on.
Since I'm actually spending a great deal more time on commissions in the hopes of providing more detail (to the extent I'm providing now) it's starting to get a little tedious for the offering prices I currently stand at, so I'm gonna push the prices up. What I need is some recommendations; other artists or commissioners, I'm asking for a reasonable price you'd pay for something I'd make for you. I'm still intending to keep the same kinda payment system, where it's a base price for one character, and then an additional amount per *extra* character, and maybe more for detail. I just need a few suggestions to kick me off the ground and, since there are no better people to ask than the customers or producers themselves, I propose a little help if possible. :>
Feel free to comment in the space below and pass the word on, the more people comment, the easier it will be for myself to set up an average price list! Thank you pre-emptively for the support :D

...what did i Pay you? >.<
I'd keep your colour sketches the same, except maybe £5 per extra char
Badges £10-£15 depending on complexity of character
Coloured line i'd say £20-25 +plus £5 per char.
Colour shaded £25-£30 depending on complex of char and background + £10 per char as you're now putting more work on them
Comics are hard to price, as it depends on pages and content imo.
So other than comics, the max you'd charge per commish is £30 (Plus monies per char) which i'd say is perfectly fair for your level now.
E 10 b/w rough sketch (same price as your color rough sketch now. E 5 for extra char)
E 15-20 color rough sketch. (charge by complexity, E 5-10 extra char.)
E 10 Badge (same as before, just don't add any extra details)
E 30 flat color ( +E 10-15 per char, + E 10-15 background)
E 40-50 shaded (+E 15-20 per char, +E 10-15 background)
Comics ---> up to you
These are roughly the currenct comparison.
E 10 = $16.4956
E 15-20 = $ 24.7434 -$32.9912
E 30 = $ 49.4868
E 40-50 = $65.9824 -$82.4780

The prices for sketches are fine, but since I noticed the amount of time you put into line art and above are increased, those prices should be raised.
My personal opinion in terms of change of prices should look like this.
Base prices
-Sketches stay at £5
-Line Art is now £15 from £10
-Line Art + flat colours are now £20-25 (depending on complexity) from £15
-Line Art + shaded colours and details are now £30-35 (depending on complexity) from £20.
Extra goodies!
-Cost per extra character
› £5 per char. for sketches
› £8~10 per char from line art and above.
-Background choices for line art and above.
›Simple (flat colour, squiggly marks n junk, etc etc, hell even a room and stuff) Should be free in my opinion.
›Complex (detailed background or with doodads n stuff~) £5
-Badges at £10 sounds nice.
-Icons and portraits should also be cheap, around £8-10 depending on complexity.
That's personally what I'd run with concerning the amount of work put in. In terms for GBP per hour, it's around 7-8 worth plus or minus, since I don't exactly know how much time is put in.

So no, it won't affect the prices we've already discussed. :D
As someone mentioned above, comics are extremely hard to price which is totally true. All depending on the detail, how many characters and how many pages. But if I were you, I'd price the comics at a basic $30 dollars (yes American, or round up to whatever Euro is :P) and then go on u per page based on detail.
But for all other projects, Im not going to type a price for every little thing lol. I recommend bringing prices up 10-20 dollars based on one character. I say for an additional character, based on what they are getting, an extra 5-10 dollars.
I'm not one for the prices and the business side of furry lol. Hell, you should do art for FREE! :P No no, I kid, I kid.
But whether or not you raise prices a dollar to 20 dollars, people will still buy your amazing art :D
Thanks for the tips all the same :D
