Sampling Leading Up to Monetization

Ring, ring!
So I'm thinking about prices concerning comics, singles, and eventually animations. Problem is, I feel I need to update more to prove I'm more reliable as an artist.
So what I think I'm going to do is this: for the next three or four months, I'll try a cycle where each person on FA can make a request. A request being one, singular, so they'd have to make it count and so would I. It'll give a chance for the two of us to work together the first time and hopefully ensure the next project is that much better.
That said, any subsequent project with a person on FA, I will begin asking that it be done in the form of commission. I'll be starting out in the ballpark of:
COMICS 40.00 USD per page sketched, 55.00 USD per page final lineart, 75.00 USD per page colored, (10.00 USD per character after more than 3 characters).
SINGLES 10.00 USD sketched, 17.00 USD final lineart, 35.00 USD colored with simple shading, and 50.00 USD colored with full textures.
ANIMATIONS rates pending...
I fully expect to have a lot of one-timers with this. That's probably how it ought to be until I get more proficient at what I want to do for a living. So what do you guys think? Are these prices reasonable? Any tips?
