I've been doing auctions since I got here but never asked anyone if my prices were too high/too low/fair/etc. XD so I guess now is a good time.

My auctions will be for a half-body, anime/manga inspired style with a painted-cell-shade type of coloring. My lineart's very smooth, which is the biggest drawing point I think. Some examples ...

(for !❤)

(for !❤)

transparent backgrounds will be provided upon request, and all images are always full-sized when sent (I might work a little smaller than most people, hence why this isn't much of an issue)

I've been pricing these from around 5million sP-15 million sP. No complaints on price so far, so I'm nervous that I'm under charging. What do you think?

I've also been throwing in chibis for bids over 5 million. This one's for (and was sooo fun to draw ... XD), and there's another example in my signature.

One half body and one chibi for 15 million sP ... am I under charging? xD; I'm not really sure what my art's worth. The economy here confuses me slight. Should I charge more? If so, how much more?

[edit] I swear I didn't realize all my characters were drawn 3/4ths perspective facing left until right now XD d'oh!

ZOINKS!

❤️ please bid in my auction! ❤️

yeah the economy here is wacky, especially around art. because people really want your stuff, i think 10 or 15 mil for a chibi or halfbody is fair, but not both for one price! if someone gets both they should be paying like 25-30mil. (wow, that's a lot! but makes sense because i thin you are in high demand, or at least will be soon, ahah) but it is good to kinda build up your prices do you can hang on to customers!

My reasoning for letting both go for so ... little I guess (it seems like a lot to me D: ) is because they don't take all that long to do! The coloring on the half-body is the only thing that takes a while ...

But hmm. Maybe I will make the chibi a bonus gift for auto-buyers, and just raise my AB up a bit more ... thanks for the advice!

Moving to the artwork pricing forum. I'd say one half body and one chibi for 15 million sP is fair. :P
