You get a call from a client that wants you to do a painting or drawing for them that they are going to use for a promo. They ask you how much would the project cost them. You're mind is blank!!!! Well I'm like that alot of the time. I don't want to over charge and i sure don't want to under charge myself for alot of work that is gonna kill me in the end. I'm not sure of everybody's level in the art game so this maybe just for the newbie artist out there.

This book has saved my precious ass more than once! And it generaly gets me a lot more money than I bargained for.
In art school, we couldn't graduate if we didn't have a copy of it. At first I didn't think it would ever be any use to me and boy was I wrong. lol!
Yeah I always contemplate on getting this book, I just started getting alot of illustration work. I usually don't know what to charge per illustration, so I refer to my animation rate. I looked through the book at the store and found alot of useful legal stuff to. I guess I'm gonna look for it on amazon cuss that shit is loot!
thanks, i've heard of this book before, but didn't check it out. now that i'm getting more work, i'll go ahead and cop it!
