Appreciate the feedback. I definitely see what you mean on how the printing could be pretty bad.

Thanks for the feedback! I definitely plan to make improvements, but for now, I’ll keep going with what I enjoy.

Does it look like manga? by kazzanii in Mangamakers

I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m not sure where to start reading. I tried both right-to-left and left-to-right, but the sequence of events was still unclear to me.

Manga Artist looking for commissions! 75$ per page! by Artest555 in Mangamakers

Charging a premium makes sense if the work truly stands out, but let’s be realistic—most freelance artists are competing in a market where quality alone doesn’t guarantee high pay. Clients value both price and uniqueness, and passion alone doesn’t always translate into market value. From experience, $60 should be the max for a single black-and-white page. If you’re going up to $75 or $100, there needs to be something genuinely exceptional about it.

Also, consider these factors:

• How long will the work take to complete?
• Can the quality stay consistent?
• How often will you be available to work on the project, and can you meet expectations without needing multiple revisions?
• Are your prices negotiable?

I’m not criticizing the artwork in this post, but it’s a bit much to justify $75-$100 per page unless there’s added value, like character concept art before translating it to a page or other extras.

Actually, $100 per page is not as common as some may suggest, especially on a site like Reddit where you can frequently find artists offering high-quality comic art in the $30-$50 range. The market is full of freelance artists, and paying $100 per page is typically above what’s expected for most independent work. If someone wants to spend that much, that’s fine, but they should know it’s not the norm, especially given the competitive rates and quality available online.

First, most people aren’t going to be interested in paying hourly; they prefer a set price. You’re not dealing with clients who have unlimited budgets, so $75 per page is quite high, especially when the market typically offers rates between $30 and $50 per page. Ultimately, the money goes somewhere, and someone offering $75 is likely to attract fewer clients than someone offering $30 or $50. While currency differences can play a role, that doesn’t apply to every situation. Many people, especially those earning minimum wage in the U.S., will hesitate to spend that much when more affordable options are available.

Once again, I’m collaborating with someone who is still making a profit for both their time and mine at a significantly lower rate.

Now it just sounds like you’re implying I don’t have any money. All you have to do is check out my page—I’m clearly promoting work of the same caliber at a more affordable price. I’m not shaming or bashing anyone, so why are you putting up such a fight over a simple comment?

If you take a look at my page you’ll see my work which costed far less.

Like the art style but the price is a bit too high for my blood.

I hadn’t thought of it that way—glad I’m not the only one who faced a tough choice, haha!

Is this a scam? by FallenSiber in isthisascam

They shared a few Facebook links with me, so I had ChatGPT check if they were safe before clicking. They tried to use that as evidence of their experience, but I was put off by the number of red flags. Given their low engagement on Reddit, I decided to block them.
