Pricelists Industry vs Fandom.

Finally made.

If anyone would care to donate a coloured comic page for the comic industry standard list I’m willing to accept one and will give credit c8 I would’ve made one if I had an example but I don’t -A-

But yes that’s off my chest.

Of course this is based off my own browsing over price lists and how I work unfortunately my commissioner homie went idle so I can’t confirm the most vs the least one can spend.

I’ve only found one artist thus far that charges nearly as close to industry standard. Even then it’s under the standard. As far a I’m concerned anyone under the standard shouldn’t have complaints about expensive art. Fandom average is hardly one you can live by.

Would you like to get paid $30 for 3-7 days worth of work?

This was what I was talking about here. Apparently, by the Graphic Artists Guild’s standards, even the rates I mentioned are lower than what they should be. I’m a little shocked at how low the ‘fandom’ prices are. US$30 for a fully detailed, full page black&white illustration? Damn, knowing how much work can go into something like that, that’s pretty much highway robbery to me.

Just hangin out with that inner critic, yo. She’ll creep up on you like nobody’s business.

I think one of the hardest things to learn when you’re starting out on a making-stuff journey is which bits of that voice are valid and which bits are a waste of time. A lot of it can drag you down and get you stuck so much that you can’t find the confidence to face the stuff you need to do to get better. But once in a while there’s a real piece of honest self-reflection. Telling the difference between those two can be super tough; knowing when to listen and when to just chin up and move on.

I really just need this comic framed and put on my wall so I can look at it everyday and remember its wisdom.

When you tell someone a goal or thing you’re planning on doing, it chemically satisfies your brain in a manner that’s similar to having actually completed the goal.
