Every now and then I get asked the best way to price your commissions. Well, there's a handy tool that's been floating around that should help you get a general idea of what to make your prices.

Start the timer, and draw/ink/color something so you can get a general idea of how long/how much you should be charging. Do not under any circumstances charge prices that amount to you getting less than minimum wage per hour! You are worth more than that! I see so many amazing people online charging way below what they should, and it not only hurts the artist, but everyone else. By under charging, you give other people the impression that dirt cheap prices are the standard, and it robs the people that charge reasonable prices of work.

I get that there are always going to be people the charge way too little, and you may feel like you're charging too much. If someone is too cheap to pay for your work, they don't deserve you. So please use this tool to get a good idea of what your prices should look like!
