Title: illustrator (new to the boards)
Post by: ValentineS on September 05, 2006, 02:02:23 AM
Hello everyone,
Please take a look around my site http://www.stachnikart.com. I'm always looking for new projects, so shoot me an email if you're interested.

Thank you
Valentine S.

Valentine,

First off, welcome to the Forge! Secondly, I really like your stuff. I'll definitely want to talk to you when it comes time to start doing illustrations for some of my projects. Unfortunately, that may not be incredibly soon... But there are others who I'm sure would be happy to talk turkey with you.

On the business side of things, I'll go ahead and ask the standard questions.. Basically, what are your rates? How do you charge, by size, by level of detail, number of characters, etc? These concerns will always be high in the priority lists, because we'd all like to see artists get their just compensations, but it's not always easy to separate art budget from grocery budget. If you've got some standard rates, it'll help kickstart negotiations that can be mutually satisfactory to both artist and game designer.

Hey Wolfen, thanks for the complement and the welcome.
At the moment my main concern is building up my portfolio and getting some more experience working, so you should find my rates more then reasonable.If anyone is interested in commissioning some work just shot me an email and i can give you a price quote based on what you need.

Cheers
Valentine S.
