Hello! I'm neruteru and I'm a freelance anime artist open for commissions, and would like to extend my services here.

    Additional:
    Expression = 3 USD
    Clothing = 7 USD

  • Headshot/Bust-up = 25 USD //

    Clothing = 12 USD
    Changes such as poses = 15 USD
Prices such as additionals may be subjected to price changes depending on the complexity of the character
*For packages or promos, just PM me and we can work something out :)*

I love your art but...

1. Prices are really expensive. EDIT: Apparently this is very rude. Sorry Neru

2. Do you have a total price to help me for the whole project?

3. Do you accept Canadian money? Note: Value is almost the same

EDIT: But then again I REALLY love your art... maybe I can consider.

... I looked at the prices and it really isn't expensive. In fact, I'd say most of these are dirt cheap compared to others I've seen.

And honestly, this was probably the rudest thing you can say to an artist here. If you can't afford it:

a) Don't buy it. Look for someone else.
b) Save up if you're sold on this person's art and you really need it for whatever project/illustration you want.

@neruteru:

I don't say this often in most threads because I keep to myself, but in light of that disagreeable comment, I think your art is quite decent and you should definitely charge more for your full colored pieces. Your coloring style is really lovely and you have a great sense of color.

I'm inclined to disagree. No one knows better what art is worth than the artist making it. For the quality of the art in the samples I can't imagine neru having much difficulty getting commissions for the stated prices.

Do you have prices for Visual Novel based commissions?

Like how much for a sprite with expressions? how many expression? Do you offer package deals?

Thanks!

1. yeah... it's rude, just don't do it again to other artists you will encounter and we're good :)
And as others have said, the prices are actually reasonable ^^ I work around 5-7 hours or more for a completed piece and I need to be compensated for that with the amount I feel is reasonable for me as well as for the commissioner

2. I can't put a total price, until we've talked about the things to be done, like how many sprites, expressions, etc. I'll be able to quote a price then. I'm open in packages or promos as well

3. I do accept other currencies, the amount just needed to be the same when converted in USD, since I can convert it in paypal anyways

Thank you so much for understanding. This is the first time I got a comment like that and I really don't know how to respond, so thank you :)
I think my prices are fine with me at the moment, though I plan on charging more in the future when I get a good grip at my style and refine it more. Thank you for your kind words :)

You're welcome. As someone who also struggled to price my own art before, I don't rag on anyone who has low prices, but instead try to suggest that their art is worth more. As long as the prices you have are working for you in your situation, I'm glad it's fine for you. Your art is at a good place right now and as long as you make ways for yourself to improve and refine, you should definitely charge more in the future.
