@dvizdos All I can tell you is that I am self taught and illustrating for 2 years only (I've been finance analyst before), so my work is way less profesional than yours. Being new on Upwork, for few months I had a few of jobs for 9$ per hour. At this moment i charge 15$ per hour and I already got a client with this rate. So according to this, your work should be price at least 15*number of hours, so in your case 75$ for a bust. What could be useful for you is to register on Upwork (no fee) so you can look at what alike illustrators charge per hour and basis on that calculate your own charge per piece. I hope it helps.

Hello, where are you from? How long does it take you to create these illustrations? I base my rates on hourly work. I am not much experienced myself, but I can tell you that 20$ is much too low for what Ive seen in this post. Ive been using Upwork for a year now and I am very happy with it. Check it out!

I like the cropping. Do you have American Psycho on your list?;)

What a cool discussion! I should read this book too! i feel so disorganised and a master of procrastination.

@Kris ha, ha My latest achievement would be a 4 square meter mural, which i painted in my house Apart from that I got some projects, but unfortunately not related to children's illustration... One of them is a comic for about IT startup. I am still learning, so maybe one day I get to illustrate a cool children book
If you are interest you can check my mural here

Hi,

I thought to share with you a piece of comic, that my 11 year old son Maciek is working on. He is a great fan of @Jake-Parker and his imagination is endless. Sometimes we watch Jake's videos together. He learns so fast. I think (but I could be bias) that he has got chance to become a great artist. Just wanted to share it, thats all

Here is a bit of story: Rabbit realises that somebody stole his food. So he packs his bag and leaves on an adventure to find more carrots.
