    One time, I ended up venting to an artist I was commissioning just because my mental health is shitty in general, and he tried to offer me a mental health discount, but I declined it. Additionally, I couldn't give him an upfront payment due to PayPal being a nuisance, but he gave me the drawing anyways, and 3 months later, I gave him 1500% of what he had originally charged. (He was severely undercharging; $10 for 2 full-body drawings fully-colored and shaded; so I asked him how long they took and paid him $10/hour instead.)
    It's been about a year since I gave him the payment and he's one of my best friends now as well as my mentor. I've also given him advice on pricing and he now charges $50/drawing with a 50% increase per additional character, which is much more reasonable. Using this pricing system, I paid him $75 for another commission of about the same quality. Additionally, I recently found out that his family is poor and the money from the commissions went towards the family savings. Anyways, watching this video made me realize how easy it was for him to be taken advantage of at the time, so maybe the fact that I paid him fairly despite that factored into us becoming close friends.

      @@desertbloomke I don't really understand how it could be strictly for digital artists? The only thing that would change is how you get the commission to the client right? And there's all kinds of ways that you could specify that in your commission information, so I don't understand how a platform could limit you to only digital art. But I'm oblivious sometimes so clearfication would be appreciated.☺

    i've had problems with pricing my art for a long time (well.. i've only been taking commissions for three or so years, but i've thought about it for a long time!) and one main thing that always tripped me up was the "time" aspect of pricing it. Everyone always says "Price your work based on how long it takes!" or "The longer your work takes, the more you should charge!" but... I can get a colored + cel shaded fullbody done in less than two hours! Maybe one if I don't get distracted (ADHD is a bitch, lmao). It doesn't even take much effort for me either- just turn on some music, turn off my brain, and get to work.
    For anyone struggling with this too, i'd say look at it a different way: Because you draw so fast, price MORE. if your art is good and it gets done quickly, that's a very good thing for most people, so they'd be willing to pay extra!
    this video was very good and helped me with a lot of things i thought about commissions etc. :'-0

    • @TheGreyscaleRainbow
      @TheGreyscaleRainbow 2 роки тому +28

      Absolutely! You shouldn't have to settle for less just because you're experienced and efficient! You put a lot of work into getting to that skill level, so you should price it based on what you feel comfortable earning for the kind of work you're doing. The hourly wage is a good starting point for beginners, but it can be adjusted over time as the artist gets more comfortable in deciding what their work is worth. As demand goes up and skill level increases, prices can be raised!

      THIS. I can take weeks to finish a drawing, then do the same thing in a few hours depending on my mood (and ADHD symptoms XD) at the time. The "make an estimate" part in the hourly payment method of the video was really helpful tbh. Considering this as well!

    • @tovermoran4360

    Artistree is definitely something I would have loved back when I was first starting out. These days I tend to have more professional work than personal commissions and very little time to fit in more. Even so, I'm not sure it would be the platform for someone like myself charging around $400+ per commission. Still worth potentially looking into though.

    Thank you so much for this information! I plan on starting commissions but I'm just afraid to do so at the moment, since I don't have my own art style and it changes from time to time. That is why I'm doing some research to learn the ropes, tips, and tricks.

    1:55 DON'T do this, most people don't care about sketch or lineart, they want the finished full colored product, trust me.
    Also use different examples Bust, Half Body and Full body, don't divide one picture into three parts, let them see more examples of what you can do.

    • @jackriley8109
      @jackriley8109 Рік тому +77

      Actually alot of people care to see the sketch it shows that theres process to your work. Alot of the viral posts around art tend to be sketches or half finished work so this is something you SHOULD do.

    • @satamiko
      @satamiko Рік тому +51

      A lot of people care for sketch/lineart, for in case they want you to help them make out the idea of what their character would be. It is cheaper for them if they are just searching for ideas. And if they are commissioning you, they should have seen some art already about examples. This is a price page, not a show off your stuff page...

    • @bravaxxii
      @bravaxxii Рік тому +27

      Agreed about not to divide one pic example into three parts. But sketch/lineart commission is always a nice affordable addition because it provides options for clients who love your arts but currently couldn't afford a full colored one. It's also easier since most artists has sketch/lineart in their workflow anyway.

    • @Phantom-bh5ru
      @Phantom-bh5ru Рік тому +2

      @@bravaxxii yea sketch, line and full render is usually done. Though I see a lot of people having more categories, for example like or no line art renders, cell shading or realistic etc. though obviously that depends as someone with a art style that uses lines will likely not make line less commissions

    • @CrazyCatLadyPlaysGames
      @CrazyCatLadyPlaysGames Рік тому +1

      Actually it depends on the case. Personally I am a game developer and I prefer that my art is in a pipeline. I have people that Sketch and Line the art then color and shade the rest so that there is a general cohesion with my team!

      Ok finished the video, and all I can say is that this Artistree sounds good, looks good, is good. And all I can hope is that it stays that way.
      That being said, my only problem in my commission journey is goddamn payment method- (paypal good = problem freaking verification, how tf do i do that)

    Tusind tak! Det her var en super god hjælp! 😄 Jeg havde lige besluttet mig for at ændre mine commission-priser og setup, og Artistree lyder som den helt rigtige platform. Dine priseksempler var også rigtig gode. Jeg har en rimelig god idé om hvad jeg bør tage for mit arbejde, men jeg kan godt huske dengang man var ny og ikke havde nogen form for selvtillid omkring hvad ens tid skulle koste. Jeg er sikker på det hjælper en masse folk med at komme igang ♥️

    I rather just keep using paypal tbh and just tell the client there's a 5% paypal fee tax(even tho is higher for me).
    Few thingies from my experience: try to go for 90% quality, the last 10% takes the most, but in the eyes of most it will be the same;
    If you're running behind schedule, keep the client up to date not in the dark, in the long run even if you fk up you will see keep some of your clients;
    ALWAYS, use invoices to get paid;
    Always be upfront with your clients and ask the same in return. You cannot read their mind, their can they.

    If you haven't already, could you make a video for the commission guide for the client? So for the people who do want to commission something, will know how to do it effectively and to make it easy for both sides.

    1) I seriously thought I was subscribed to you because I've watched so many of your videos, ESPECIALLY your art style and commissions videos, but I wasn't??? oops???
    2) this is SO COOL. I immediately started poking around the site and setting up my account. I am so glad they reached out to you for this!
    I was wondering, do you have any advice on the slump between commissions, especially when they last a long time? I got so ashamed of my lack of commissions that I unpinned all of my commissions posts, which in hindsight is very dumb lol, but it's super embarrassing to have gotten lots of commissions at very poor rates in high school, but now that I'm nearly graduating uni with a degree in illustration, to not get any commissions at all 😭is it just better marketing? most likely lol but if you had any advice, especially with the mental side of things, I'd super appreciate it!

    Hi, I hope somebody could respond this doubt about Artistree: If you link your Paypal account to your Artistree account, won't PayPal take the corresponding commission from your payment? Or does Artistree protect you in some way from what Paypal can charge you? I really need to clear this doubt because I really would like to use this platform, please :3
