I cant be of any help with USD pricing, just want to say this - your art is gorgeous, you're just not likely to quickly find USD customers on Lioden, that's why there arent many comments!
Lioden is a game, 90% of players here come either not having any money to spend at all, or having a limited amount of it to spend on GB only - very few players buy art for USD here, so real currency commissions might take a while to find! And by while, I mean months sometimes - Ive seen epic adoptables still not sold for over a year, because they're for USD only. You might have better luck finding commissioners on Toyhouse or Deviantart, sites where more "money" carrying users are active on.

so if im correct you were charging
$8 for a headshot
$17 for a fullbody
$20 for just a background?

i believe you could start asking $10-15 for a headshot/bust, $25-30 for a fullbody, backgrounds it varies!

like mad hyena said alot of people here cant do or afford USD commissions or are not old enough for them yet. You will have better luck advertising on DA, or even discord servers i can suggest a few public ones that surround commissionings!

Joining adoptable owner groups on DA helps a lot in finding commissions; especially if you join a big ARPG group and offer people art of their ARPG critters for order, I see a lot of those sold very quickly on ARPG advertisments - people there are very interested in their critters getting art, as it gives them activity points within that ARPG group!

hey so I might not have any tips on how to make money fast, but if you're only starting out with commissions I have some general tips :
- make a price sheet with examples of your art

- learn art and commission terminology ( keywords such as fees, turnaround time, rendering, flatcolor, TOS, anthro, complex, feedback... I'm only suggesting this because I see that english isn't your first language, I think having the vocabulary to communicate with clients better might help you avoid miscommunications )

- be transparent with your clients, give them updates on the art regularly ( this helps build trust )

- don't work for free, always ask for full payment up front, or 50% before, 50% after, never send the full image before it has been paid for (some people in discord art servers are known for scamming artists)

- make a terms of service (TOS) to show professionalism, you can reference other artists terms of service

- I think that carrd.co is a good website for making a price sheet, terms of service and example gallery in one place, some people use weebly and wix for commission info
