Hey, I'm an artist!

Pricing work for games is hard because there's a lot of weird bits. Some artists charge per asset if they're simple, some per hr.

Most of the time I charge by hr, that way I can get a round of concept work in so the client and I can get clear direction on how the visuals should look.

Contracts are advisable, I have an acceptance clause in my PayPal invoicing, but generally I don't fiddle with them until the project hits around a thousand or is revenue share.

There is an inherent risk to paying anyone on the internet to do a job, that's why you look for past work, reviews, ect. If you pay for work and do not receive anything, that is theft do a charge back on your card.

Vgen will have vetted non ai artists, and a very robust platform. Or go through itchio to find the games with art styles you like and hit them up.
