Opinions / Feedback Needed!

[dishsoap]

Hey everyone! I hope your weekends have been good so far. So, I just have a couple questions that I need answered.

Background Info

So, I’ve been doing free art requests for a few months now, and I’m starting to realize that it’s not sustainable. While I love providing free art for people, it takes hours to do a single art piece. On top of that, I’ve recently lost my job, and I’m the sole money provider for my household. I really don’t like asking for money… but I’m sort of worried that within a month or two, I’ll have no other choice. Now the prices I’ve had in mind wouldn’t be too high (Shoulders & Up: $3, Waist & Up: $6, Full Body $10, you get the idea), but I still worry that no one would want to buy it. Mind you, I will not be charging for requests I’ve already accepted lol, that’s just mean. I’ve left some examples in the next hidden arrow thingy

Examples

I’m just curious as to what you all think. If you’ve read the background info, feel free to answer the polls and / or leave your thoughts in a reply. I’d love to hear why you chose what you chose and any feedback or recommendations you all have. Thank you so much!!

Should I Open Commissions Next Month?

you should definitely charge… regardless of the situation… your time & effort is 100% worth it and you’re doing a service for others. xx

your work is great

Your art is amazing!!! The prices are reasonable and I think many people would buy your art :)) Also I hope everything works out okay with your current situation

How in the world do you do that?? Your art is very cute, I envy and enjoy artists that have the talent to simply draw cartoonish-semi/realistic. I think you should go for it! Your prices are at the perfect amount and I for sure would love to by artwork someday considering the generosity in the commissions:)
