Best way to work out a price, is to work out how many hours it takes you. I've spent years doing a similar exercise with my mum and it's only now a shop has got involved that she's learning the true value.
As an "Amature", you should be lookint ~£45 for an A4 sized Pic.
Once you have your name about, then £65 (A4) - £120 (A3) is not uncommon as you start and doubling that as you move forwards.
Of course, the Pro's cost a fortune!
If you're doing them for £30 or less, I'll have one done please. (My mum only does wildlife)

Hi and a big big thanks to you all :D :D :D I have to admit I'm very overwhelmed by all your comments :oops:
Sorry I haven't got back sooner been spending two days with my architect head on trying to please the local plannng department :evil: :evil: :evil: buuuut that's totally OT for this thread!
So many questions ... I'll try my best now to answer them all
Gords, Jimbo & Metalkoi ... I don't need to do 'sittings' with the vehicles, all I require is a good quality picture (hi-res) sent to me via email.
I normally use A4 as it's easily posted (the bigger pics seem to get bent and roughed up in transit :roll: :x )
I do do bigger pics ... the smallest of the three here is the A4
G-mod, Casey12 & Skip ... I can do any vehicle... I don't just do Landies, I did a charcoal drawing of BeJay's Humber Sceptre
Thermidor ... :lol: :lol: :lol: I would love to do a pic of your 101, and no I wouldn't charge extra!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Blackbob & Barmiebrumie ... :( sadly no Brighton for us this weekend, we're winching and recovering on Saturday followed by a drink out and Sunday we'll just be recovering :lol: :lol:
Sharpshooter ... :shock: WOW :shock: that acrylic is fantastic!
Tiltboy ... I have paintshop on my puter that does the same ... IMHO I find printing those on gloss paper really tacky though :?
Techno Turkey & Evil Ed ... firstly Evil Ed :shock: :shock: :shock: OMG HOW MUCH??? £45's a bit too much even though I'm an amat.... err not a professional!! Techno Turkey suggested £20+ .... weeeelllll I've been pondering over £25 and still feel uncomfortable .... so I've gorn for a round £22 for the A4 ... any other size a price can be discussed I guess.
Seeing as I've never done painting like it's work before, I'm going to limit myself to 25 orders to start with ... I don't want to over do it to start with, it'll be on a first come first served basis ..... those that have posted before me here who still want a piccie will be in that 25 .... if the work load don't freak me out too much and I seem to be coping ok I'll post again to let you know I can manage more orders.
So, there we go ... A4 size picture of a vehicle for £22. Does that sound good to you lot?? Any one who's interested please PM me and I'll pass on my email addy.
EvilEd:
*Tick* but can I send you a Pic once I have the latest toys fitted :) (should be next week)
Don't sell yourself short. A lot of people underestimate how much work can go into these things. At least you're not trying to get them framed etc for that price.... (costs ~£30 - £60 for a good framer with "Mount and Taped")
How much will postage be for a decent Envelope and now you can't post anything bigger than a stamp for the old First class post price :evil:
