Hi! i've recently come back to lioden after a few years hiatus. I thought it would be a nice idea to do some art on this site as a way to keep in practice over the summer. I need some advice for how to price my art as I'm not familiar with the economy here anymore.

examples of my art: here!
I draw humanoid, furry/anthro and feral/animal characters.
(note: I dont normally watermark my art like that, just being careful with imgur lol)

my normal commission prices are as follows:
Lineart: Bust £10, Halfbody £15, Fullbody £25
Flat colour: Bust £20, Halfbody £25, Fullbody £30
Rendered: Bust £30, Halfbody £40, Fullbody £50
+£10 per extra character, +£15 for a complex background

I believe that would work out to the following in Gold Beetles? (after converting from £GBP to $USD):
Lineart: Bust 24GB, Halfbody 36GB, Fullbody 60GB
Flat colour: Bust 48GB, Halfbody 60GB, Fullbody 72GB
Rendered: Bust 72GB, Halfbody 96GB, Fullbody 120GB
+24GB per extra character, +36GB for a complex background

Would that be an appropriate price to ask on Lioden? I would be willing to adjust it as these would mostly be for fun and practice as they're for an in game currency. I would also be willing to add a cheaper option for just a quick sketch or do more YCH style offerings if that is more suited to the art economy here. thanks in advance <3

Hello and welcome back! Always good to see more talented artists in the community :D

Your art is beautiful! I think the prices you set are pretty good! As long as you have good examples you'll find commissioners no problem. It's just a matter of setting a price you are happy with, don't undersell yourself.

Often people may want to use items mixed in with GB, maybe that's an option you can look at if you're looking for items like decor, breeding items and lions too ^^ I find that it's a bit friendlier to those who don't have as much gb, but you definitely don't have to. I doubt you'll be lacking in work

Thanks for the response! That helps a lot. I'll work on getting some examples ready in a nicer format. The point about using items is also really useful, that's not something I'd considered but would be helpful to consider.

No problems! I've taken a break from commissions so I can't say my judgement is the most up-to-date. If anyone else can chime in for a second opinion that would be great too! :D

I'll be looking forwards to seeing your art shop around
