Welcome to the community, good luck with selling - though, I must say as a fellow artist on MCM, I'm not sure your quality compares to your prices - not even our top quality artists here charge that much. You may want to consider reworking your prices before anything else. I suggest posting your work on the appraisals board and going from there.

The thread looks great but chargeing hourly is bad and your prices look very costly. If i were you i would make it certain prices such as 25usd for a logo etc.

 

[Masstrix]

The reason I do charge hourly is if I spent a week on a banner it I would have to holt work on other projects just for that and only get a margin of what might be actually worth when if I charge a flat rate for specific items things could become under or over priced still. Altho yes you could argue "But why not just offer deals" or "You could charge less for the items" I could yes, but working under a time based system still does the same thing.

Your prices suggests that you must have amazing & detailed work but yet your portfolio completely contradicts that.

 

[ShinySwordStorm]

Your art isn't bad, but I'd say try to practice a little more before opening a shop with prices like that. Charging hourly is a perfectly valid way to ask for payment and ensure your time is paid for, but what your charging is just as much as what some new professionals charge, even though your work isn't at a professional level. Regardless, GLWS

Why do you feel the need to say "we" and "our" when we know you're one person? It's like you're trying to seem like your business is larger than it actually is.

Also, your prices are WAY too high. I understand that you want to be paid a decent amount per hour, but your quality of art isn't up there, yet. You're also probably taking way too long on your artwork because you're inexperienced and inefficient. So why should people pay more for your art when they can get something done a lot better and probably finished within two days for $150?

With every new job, especially when you're inexperienced, you will make less than you want to. You must work your way up to making higher quality art and finishing at a faster rate, so you can charge a decent but not extreme amount for your artwork. Nobody is going to pay $1000 just so they can wait a week or so for "meh" quality art.

Additionally, your thread needs revamping. The design is nice, but your grammatical errors are through the roof. You're also boasting about your "experience" when after looking through your portfolio, we can tell you're clearly not that experienced at all. If you want to attract buyers, show that you're professional and consistent. That means, don't spell "experience" wrong three times in the same section, and don't boast about stuff you're really not that good at, yet.

Sorry if I seem like I'm being harsh or rude; those aren't my intentions. But I do feel like if you want to do well, you'll take these words into serious consideration.

Thanks, I might change a few things or take this down for a little and come back later on.

Thank you for the feed back, I've read it and been looking at what others say as well for my own use on further updates. If your interested in time it takes me to do artwork such as a profile picture it will normally take me around 1-3h (depending on what it is). I appreciate the feedback allot s it is helpful for me. And if you wonder why I use "we" and "our" it's because I have some people that are interested in being apart of AstronStudios so for my own purpose I used that.

Your prices are terrible compared to your art, especially how you charge an hour. Some people who do graphics 10x better then you, have cheaper prices.
I suggest having prices (Like $10-$20 for a logo), instead of hourly, as nobody will pay.
Also a bad thing about hourly is you could purposefully work long hours to get more money.

Shorter version ;
Don't charge hourly
Lower prices

Thanks for that, I do agree now looking at my prices they are a bit high. As for the hourly and just wasting time, I use a timer to time how long it takes to do my work and I only ever have it on when doing it, I try my very best to get work done quickly but still with quality.

Thanks everyone for the feedback on this, I'll be updating everything soon with more appropriate prices and offers for some items. I read everything that is posted here and take it into consideration so it is helpful for me now and later.

Your prices are still way too high for your artwork... Instead of $38/hr, your rates are now $28/hr, and I suppose that's fine if you're Speedy Gonzolas. Which you're not. You take a long time on your artwork. And just because you take a long time doesn't mean you should be charging more; usually, it means the opposite.

I've said this before and I'll say it again: people don't want to pay $1000 to wait over a month for "meh" quality artwork, when other more experienced artists charge about $200 and can get it done in less than a week.

We've already told you that it would be more reasonable to charge per commission. But I don't think you're actually taking any of us seriously because you're still charging by the hour, and for some reason, your hourly rates are more than most adults make at their full-time jobs.

I understand that you want to get paid enough for your work and for the time you spend on it, but everyone has to start at the bottom. You are neither experienced enough nor efficient enough to be charging this kind of money for the quality of artwork that you produce.

Hey well thanks, Do you think it would be more reasonable if I charged around $5 to $20? This is good info for me as everyone else I talk to just simply agree and say things are good only to feel a little bad putting my work on as it feels like your charging in gold blocks to get lead back.
