Hey guys! I'm thinking about another crack at commissions. Before I start though, I wanted to get some opinions from artists and people who frequently buy art on how much my work is worth. I've got some examples tle="" target="_blank">here of the work I believe is my best, and tle="" target="_blank">here are the flyger adoptables I'm selling. 

For something of the quality of the Misty reference I did I was thinking maybe somewhere around 200 mil/cp or $20 USD, taking into account how long it takes me to get the lineart nice and neat and the proportions correct. I'm not sure if that's like... crazy overpriced, though. For the amount of work I put into shading and colouring the base for the flygers I was thinking if I did the same for a larger piece it could be 250 mil/cp or $25 USD. Again these are just my own rough estimates and keep in mind I have not really priced my art accurately before. As of right now flygers sell fairly well at 30 mil each but since they are small and recolour adoptables usually are $3-5 I figured that was fine.

I mostly just want a second opinion from people who might know more about it than I do; am I over/underselling myself? Are these prices reasonable? I'm not fully sure, so I figured it was a good idea to post this thread first and see if anyone can offer their insight.

Hmm... I think all these prices are too high. I mean, your art is amazing, but there aren't that many who could pay such high prices.

These prices aren't high at all.  She's actually charging below what she would outside of res.  I would charge 150 mil for a full body sketch, but to garner interest I suggested slightly lower since people on res don't pay what the going rate should be.
