Rust's a shaking off. Stupidly thinking about commissions..
10 years ago
Maybe it's the cider talking, as well as no small amount of fatigue, but how my latest couple of images have been turning out have been really giving me a boost in confidence. I mean, if I'm able to pull off some similar levels of consistency, and maybe put in a bit more fundamentals practice (anthros, other little niche fetishes I have) I might even start feeling comfortable about listening to the idea of commissions.
It's really just a thought, I honestly have no idea how much interest there would actually be towards such things, and there's images I kind of want to draw anyway (isn't that always the case?) - but I've seen people taking money for worse things in life. I dunno. I'm not exactly experienced in this whole shebang and it still feels like I'm lucking it with the improvements I've been making but hey. If there's any interest or such comments, do let me know, it might help me come to a decision on the matter instead of sitting on the fence.
Uh as for prices, as a general idea of what I'm thinking right now:
~£3.20/$5 for a rough sketch like you can sometimes see in my scraps. Usually takes me about 30 minutes when I'm in the groove so that fits about minimum wage.
~£6.40/$10 for some cleaning up and lining. Generally busywork that takes time. Might add in some basic colour at this level too since if I line properly that's not too much of a faff. Probably working under min. wage here but it's a hobby.
~£10/$15 for the additional shading and details I tend to like to add in ?
I dunno if I'm undervaluing my work or anything like that, and generally I'm thinking within the realms of things I'm doing right now of single character poses with some accessories. Complex stuff works differently I imagine but that's for more serious thought than drunken ramblings, anyway, enjoy browsing, passerby!

You liar!

I'd totally throw mone at you to get more unfortunate Espeons, though o.-
Also, as a little tip, do keep payment in one currency, to avoid issues like variable value. USD is not that consistent when converting to GBP.
I would get.
