Want to sell artpacks - Would appreciate your input
8 years ago
General
Hey everyone, I would like to ask if there's interest in buying a set of packs totaling 100 unreleased pages (approximately 500 standalone images) all varying from sketch to painted that I've made on my stream. I plan to separate them either by fetish, or character. A tiny percentage of the pictures in the packs might be overlooked and will have been posted on my tumblr but I'm aiming to keep it as unique as possible. A disproportionate number of the pics will be sketches too and probably have my OC Liz in them.
The non-commissioned images on My Tumblr are the most typical examples of what you'd see. Fetishy and cartoony works ranging back through 2017.
They're all currently in their own Clipstudio and SAI files, bunched up in layer folders so exporting and formatting them will easily take at least 2 dedicated days to do. Organizing them in any particular manner will take even longer.
I'd very much like to read your inputs, experiences with art-packs, as well as what absolutely kills the idea of spending a bit to support an artist rather than just waiting until someone posts it in a torrent.
I should hope it's reasonable to ask for $5 per package (approx. 25 sketch pages with a couple exploratory paintings, or exploratory [choppy/unfinished] animations) or $15 for the entire batch.
Please let me know what you think. Depending on the level of interest and application of suggestions: I can have this all together and up for sale within a week.
Thank a lot for your time and interest!

I think it would hurt my heart too much to low-ball myself for lower than $15 for a 4-pack (approx 500 character images, about 30-50 with color, and several unreleased animation loops) which is why I think the $5 option for each pack split into 4 would be most suitable for people who want to pick and choose.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts!
My only complaint ive ever had with artpacks is when an artist advertises '500 images!' ... only for there to be a huge amount of images that are the same but with minor variants, so you get closer to about 150 unique images but with a lot of repeats to pad it out.
This doesnt sound as such though.
This is very much why I'm asking what people's expectations are so thanks for taking the time! \o/
