it's something that a lot of people can do in an average way

think, all this things are products they have to sell them, if they look visually bad nobody wanna buy them, is that simple

art is something that very few people can do very well, remind that

14 Jan 05:14

futurespaceghost

concept art plays a HUGE role in movie production

14 Jan 05:12

Gliger

imagine your average fantasy movie without concept art

14 Jan 05:11

futurespaceghost

if i could make 5k an illustration..

14 Jan 05:11

Swibble

sad but true

14 Jan 05:11

Swibble

movies aren't made out of concept art

14 Jan 05:11

Gliger

tell that to a company that makes a billion dollars per movie

14 Jan 05:10

Swibble

do that 10 times and you're done for the year

14 Jan 05:10

Swibble

what is wrong with 5000 dollars anyway

14 Jan 05:10

smrr

Woo! I'm up at 6am as well haha, morning o/

14 Jan 05:09

Swibble

6AM means confusion that your headphones smell like shampoo

14 Jan 05:07

Gliger

5000 doesn't feel like that much now does it? haha

14 Jan 05:06

Gliger

but didn't sargent charge like 120,000 dollars for each portrait?

14 Jan 05:06

Gliger

it's not about how much it is worth, when you are working with multibillion companies it's about how much they are willing to pay for YOUR work, you're right

14 Jan 05:05

EduardoGaray

but you know what that roman guy said, things only cost what their buyer is willing to pay

14 Jan 05:03

EduardoGaray

the sad thing is that 2000 or 5000 seems an unbeliable amount

14 Jan 05:03

Gliger

Like, not to get into fineart, or Sargent level portraits, but, Kim jung gi must get more than 5000, even though each drawing takes him like what, a couple hours?

14 Jan 05:02

Gliger

I think noah bradley said 5000 was around the max until you really made your own thing

14 Jan 04:58

Adam Lina

yea i think ive heard some guys getting like 5000 for singles pieces at the higher end. i could be wrong though :)

14 Jan 04:52

Gliger

And I bet you can get more if a company wants specifically your work, I can't speak for him, but marko djudjevic probably gets a lot for his marvel covers

14 Jan 04:50

Gliger

cryptids pays more

14 Jan 04:46

futurespaceghost

14 Jan 04:25

Blewzen

14 Jan 04:10

futurespaceghost
