I don't know how to price my mediocre art Furthermore, I want to sell my art for money but I don't know whether or not to do that here. I'm unsure if anyone would want to pay real money for my art or just sb or gb. As I can hardly shade, I'd have to start by selling flat or sketch commissions and/or adopts. Below are examples of recent art I've done Recent being in the last 2-3 months 0 players like this post! Like? |

I love your art aaah! I'd totally buy from you if you made a shop! I think it would be a bit difficult to sell your art for real money (I've seen that it doesn't do too well sadly!) So the best option on here would be GB/SB! Im not great at pricing, but just some ideas anyway! Headshot- 5GB Bust- 7GB Fullbody - 8-10GB Custom/Adopt - 12-15GB depending on complexity You could also charge extra for extra characters/background and such! I think your art is worth a lot more, but most people sell art on here for pretty low prices xO 0 players like this post! Like? |

I know selling for real money on here is a hopeless dream but on insta and deviantart it's harder for me to meet people and make friends and whatnot buuttt- :0!!!! I didn't expect you to say that!!!! I wouldn't think it's worth GB at all but that's my self-loathing speaking ;w; 0 players like this post! Like? |

When I price art; I roughly go by the hour. This works for me, but IK sometimes it's a bit much for ppl w/ diff styles? Or w/ a smaller community they're tryna sell to. Charge the minimum wage where you live per hr; lets say its 8$. So if a Fb takes you 2 hours, then it's worth 16$ or 32GB, MINIMUM. It's a really good baseline I find; because you can easily justify it; art is custom made for everyone and a privilege, if they don't wanna pay the minimum wage for hard labor, then thats their problem? I've gone w/ this and slowly pushed my prices up as I get better at art and the demand gets higher; I'm currently charging around 25-30$/hr and still have to waitlist :'D As for what to take; people on here are willing to pay both USD/GB/Items (or at least my customers do); I usually let them pick their preferred way of payment on that aspect; whether its pure GB, USD, or mixed w/items n stuff ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Good luck! And feel free to PM me if you need more help hjsfjg I'm friendly (usually) xD > my art thread for example, my prices are pretty ridiculous LOL but it's working for me; https://www.lioden.com/topic.php?id=304429232808 it's a learning process, don't be scared to up your prices or lower them; you can also hold auctions on YCHs to see how much people wanna pay at max for a piece of yours ^^ 0 players like this post!
