i'd definitely say than when/if you're able to, you should show a few examples of every style. the price also depends on how long it would take you to make it as a guess, i'd say... YCH - 2-4 GB Sketches - 10-20 GB Complex Busts/Headshots - 15-20 GB it's a tad hard to value art when you dont have as many examples and know how long it takes, but your PC died as to why you dont have as many ^^ I did rather big price ranges as it mainly depends on what audience you attract. Personally, I feel like sketches may be your main seller, though the busts look very neat as well. Also, adding backgrounds/shading would add to price as well if you do post more examples later and add how long it took, i could give another review and see if it changes, but i'd say your art shop would do pretty well, and if you get better demand, you could raise prices a bit 0 players like this post!

Your style is super cute and clean!! I don't know if youve done USD commissions but the ratio is 2gb per 1 USD, so if you'd usually charge 25USD and you want to charge gb, it'd be 50gb. Even for ur most simple stuff, I wouldn't go any less than 15usd/30gb at the absolute lowest rate, naturally increasing as the complexity grows w the pieces. Edit; the YCH even I'd charge at least 10gb which is 5usd. Underselling yourself undervalues your time, experience, and also hurts other artists in the process by making them have to undervalue themselves too. 1 player likes this post! Like? |

as a general rule, i wouldn't price anything under 10gb since that's $5. it messes with the entire economy if everyone undervalues themselves, so try avoiding that while balancing getting business! ych: 10gb+ ($5) sketches: 15-20gb+ (roughly $10) complex busts/headshots: 20-35gb+ (roughly $15 - fair if it takes less than 2 hours, if not then increase slightly!) i price all of my art at $10-12/hour, so i'd follow $8-10/hour (at least) if you're concerned about not getting commissions. i always compare my prices to GB:USD ratio to make sure i'm not absurdly underpricing! i'd hate to see you only earn $4/hour or something :( you can always compare your art to other shops that sell well to compare too! just try to find someone with similar quality and options :) 0 players like this post!

i do agree that they could definitely do higher prices than what I said, their art is very good ^^ the rates I used are what I typically see on LD, but having higher ones wouldn't hurt them i'd say. i know some LD artists undervalue themselves a bit though, i will say, less complex YCH i see on LD tend to be less than 7 GB, but if they sell for higher, keep em higher 0 players like this post!
