Just a friendly reminder that I AM on Bluesky, -and- posting there a lot more frequently than here, this website really has just gone to crap and it's not fun to be on, so if you want more of my teasy ramblings and fun doodles find them on 🦋

i will lose all respect for you as an artist if you put down another’s prices to gas up your own… so fucking tacky get a grip

[Jade Law @jadel4w]

Seeing aspiring artists attack a well respected and established illustrator is doing so much harm to their careers and they don’t even know.

Being a good artist is half the job.
Being someone people want to work with is the other half.

When those who hire see you tearing down other artists for their prices and then accusing them of AI, we blacklist you. You reveal your red flags.

Art is a community. Tearing down others is not how you get ahead. In life or art.

[MurkyTea 🍵🐉💢💢 COMMISSIONS OPEN @Mirky_tea]

Raising prices drastically. No more 70 dollar commissions. I think I've come to my senses

[Peter Mohrbacher @bugmeyer]

I have charged clients anywhere from $2,000-$20,000 for custom illustrations in the last few years.

All this discourse over prices is coming from kids who don’t have mortgages.

[Da Squish @DaSquished]

@creepsterrr Its been legitmately driving me insane hahah, its so clear how little people value the ability to create something out of nothing even though its basically magic.

[Lara Jenn 🐦‍⬛ @_LaraJenn]

Seeing younger artists, artists my age, promoting themselves on the back of an unfair wave of hate directed at another artist already integrated into the industry and just thinking "are you guys stupid??"

[Da Squish @DaSquished]

@RubyPanda Part of the problem is digital artists and digital furry artists have always been chronically underpriced and it's created an audience that when you DO charge what you should they start whining and complaining about it and acting like you're greedy. ARTISTS CHARGE MORE

[Da Squish @DaSquished]

@RubyPanda These are closer to industry artist prices and yes, digital artists chronically undervalue themselves. Look at the average prices for a freelance concept artist for commissioned prices it's more in line with these prices.

@DullpointDraws You dont get better at certain concepts by avoiding them, but you cant supplement lack of practical knowledge with books only. Gotta aim a little further than your brain can process, but doing that under the scrutiny of public eye is brutal cause its pretty vulnerable

[Da Squish @DaSquished]

@DullpointDraws It cant really be done in the context of art for production, ie art you intend to show others. You just have to attempt ideas, using skills you might not have trained, and accept its gonna look scuffed but you've learned a little more having done it once.
