hello WP, i'm a bit stuck! . i've been having this issue recently where my artwork isn't doing as well as it formerly has. i've had to cancel auctions due to no bids, and have sold OC's for much lower prices than I'd originally wanted :') i've already given up doing auctions as a whole since i don't get many bids, but now i'm wondering if my prices in general need to be changed. some examples of my art (c) all art above is drawn by me my current prices headshot: 4 apples & 200 mush halfbody: 10 apples fullbody: 20 apples so.. are my prices fair for the art provided?

Those prices seem pretty high. On this game 10apples is a lot to many players. If you have 1,000mush alone, you're probably considered rich. 1 apple sometimes costs around 700mush, which is less than 1,000mush. The average of the 3 prices above (excluding mush in calculations) is around 11apples. I noticed you put on your forum something like you saw how much other places charge for their art. Most art in general doesn't seem to have such high prices on this site, where did you find those?

I honestly think those are kind of low actually! I'd bump the lowest one up to 6 apples and go up from there accordingly!

my prices are based off of many of the other commissioners i saw around when i originally made my shop, such as BJake, Blair, Eternity etc. my art is a tad bit lower in quality so i decided to charge under the more qualified artists. i've noticed lately that a lot of the newer art shops are much cheaper, but mainly because they are people who're trying to get practice in or who have just began taking commissions. seeing as i have done art for around 12 years now i don't wish to charge only 400-1000 mush per piece, especially when they take me multiple days most of the time ^^'

Honestly I would actually up the headshot to 5 apples, these prices are very fair. In fact dare I say up it if you do shading! Edit: I think the reason auctions aren't selling is wolfplay is broke after the event, but hopefully as more people explore and get their money back up you get more commissions and bids <3 Edited at February 24, 2024 10:20 PM by Pigeon

These look amazing :o You really have great talent. I too think these prices are easily more than fair(and this is coming from someone who is addicted to getting lots and lots of artwork but can't afford to usually get art from the higher, but 100% fairly, priced art shops) I will very likely work towards getting some of your artwork ^^
Keep up the amazing work
