I have a portfolio full of personal projects, gift art, and a few paid commissions, but not many. I know how much I'd like to charge, I just want to know how that theoretically lines up with what people would pay.
Let's say you're at a con, or browsing this sub, Tumblr, Twitter, Artstation, Deviantart, Myspace, AOL, or however you find artists, how much would you voluntarily pay for your subject drawn in the following styles? Or if you're a creator who's never commissioned anyone yourself, how much would you charge to do these? They can be in different art styles (cartoony, semi-realistic, anime, etc.), just focus on skill and level of detail.
Let's pretend how long it took me isn't an issue. Price would be for one character, even though most of the example drawings have multiple ones.
Pencil drawing.
Line drawing.
Colored and hard shaded.
Digital painting without BG.
Digital painting with BG.
And finally, full illustration with as many characters as you'd like.
I'd also love to be able to sell backgrounds alone to people who need them for, say, visual novels or comics, since I think they're where I excel. (Just pretend that doesn't have a character in it.)
Thanks.
