So, after a long absence from doing art frequently, I've thought long and hard about why I'm not motivated enough to work on my art. And then it struck me. I have practically no money. And well... what motivates me to work well is if I have a good enough income, so I have the energy to devote to my art, and the guy who decides how much dole (
bare minimum living funds, supplied by the British government to those out of work, provided you can prove you're looking for work, so you don't die of starvation) I get clearly thinks I get too much.
So, who would be willing to pay for me to do them art? I'm only making sketches and inks available for the moment, as I don't feel I currently have enough skill to do more under a strict deadline. How does this sound:
£5 - A4 sketch, one character. £1.50 per extra character.
£7 - A4 inked (digital). £2 per extra character.
£8 - A4 inked (traditional). £2.50 per extra character?
These are only ideas at the moment. What to you think? Should they be more? Less?
Please take into account that I'm going to be living off this income, and I don't currently have a lot of people watching my artwork.
Also, I am accepting donations (Paypal: registeel999[at]hotmail.com), if there's a decent amount then I would concider lower costs.
Do note that anyone I am currently doing art for will not be affected (as they count as REQUESTS, not commissions). However, donations would be appreciated.
I'm not starting this immediately because I need to know what people think.
Oh yeah, and yes, I am drinking Tango. It was ridiculously cheap, so no, I'm not wasting money on pop
