Are your art commissions priced right? Do you know how much your art is worth? This guide gives examples of art at different price tiers and tips on increasing value. Video sponsored by Amino. aminoapps.com/u/CrownePrince

We evaluated head, bust, and full body character art, character sheets, landscapes, full illustrations, and traditional art. Traditional art should be broken down into categories but it was a much less popular submission type, as were landscapes - hence why there are two traditional pieces under landscapes. I wanted to include background art because it is often underlooked as a market for independent artists. Most of my viewers only consider character art!

►► Judging Info ◄◄
Every panelist assigned a price range to each of the art pieces using the scale in this video. Except in cases where the artist signed their piece, creator was unknown. Hours of work into each piece was unknown. Panelists voted blind, so they did not know how others on the panel were voting. The panel also provided written tips and critique on a few pieces of their choosing. Some of those comments are featured in the video.

Art is sorted by category according to the median price of the 6 votes. Honestly I was not sure if there would be any agreement at all, but all 6 panelists consistently voted. It was very clear to everyone whether a piece was a low, mid, or high cost. There were a few exceptions, usually with regards to more abstract art.
