#idk how to gauge stuff by Time it took its so difficult and varies

Reg commission prices: a rule of thumb is to NEVER price your art by what you personally feel its worth. Price your art by how much your own time is worth.

Basically if a sketch commission, without extra revisions, takes you like one or two hours; is 10$ enough for that time to you? If you have a busy stressful life, that time might be more valuable than 10$ (just an example btw. i personally would never go below 50€).

Also remember having rly low prices tend to attract scammers/rude people so sometimes ppl increase prices just to filter out any bad eggs.

dis is true! honestly pricing new commissions is hard for me mostly because my current ones have been adjusted over time. like i wasnt very good at chibis when i started...but the demand grew and i now only know i have to raise prices when i keep getting swamped with em...

ive improved at art so its much harder to gauge completely new commissions bc idk how many ill get, if at all, how i'll handle em, etc T_T i wish i could still start super low and raise em as i go but thats obviously not viable i am So tired
