Thank you! I know there are like anime head shots and others but I dun think I have seen a realistic one either, other than it being a non-animated base.

Anytime, Emi! Yeah, there are headshots like those and realistic bases, but never an animated realistic icon.

Nope nope! I wonder how much they should go for if I use them as a commission item?

Well, how hard was it to make/how long did it take you?

Well, it's more shading. Probably took.. an hour?

Well then, how long does a normal icon take you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
30-45 minutes, depends on details.

Well, then, you make the price twice as much as a normal icon, since it takes twice the amount of time and more shading.

True true. >< I never know how to price my thingys.

Well, making art for someone takes time away from you, so basically they're paying for your time, I guess. I don't know how to price things, either, so you're not alone, Emi!

Yay! I feel better now. >w<
I feel bad that I have a whole lot of people waiting on art from me and school has been a real pain in the butt that I haven't been able to get to them.
Although I'm only taking an online course over the summer (hopefully), I'll be able to wipe down the list clean.

That's good~
Don't be, they'll be patient with you. You have a really long list, completing it takes time. I've been really busy lately, too, so I know how you feel.
That should help, sometimes it's easier to do things when you're not so pressured.

Yeah, after everything settles down I'm gonna enjoy some personal art myself. ><

That's good! It's nice to do art for yourself, it relaxes me.
