JimBob Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hey. Me and a friend of mine have started making mascots, and we have no idea how much they are worth. From one of out pieces below, how much would do you think they are worth? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 ok the bbcode failed... go here : http://desmond.yfrog.com/Himg827/scaled.php?tn=0&server=827&filename=finishedy.png&xsize=640&ysize=640 That's some incredibly nice work! Not to be a bitch or anything.. But is there a way you can prove that you've created these? Just because of your low post count and such.

JimBob Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Thank you again. Any idea on how much its worth though? I am willing to sell custom mascots. And because i know that im really not trusted enough yet, ill make first, and show you it (with water marks), and well see if you want to buy it or not? Just an idea if anyone would like to purchase a custom mascot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With sketches and a few shots of sketch then do a few shots of the colouring process to confirm you have made them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hello, Nice work, as Dave Macaulay said show the process of making it so you can confirm its a custom mascot made by you and you should have no problems at all finding people to buy them because from this example your work looks great. I would be happy to purchase one or two custom mascots from you being that the price is affordable for me =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronus Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 If you truly made this then you do excellent work. I also will want some work done in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran-R Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I also think that Is some amazing work! I will also be contacting you about these mascots. I would say that they are worth around $80-$130. But that's just an estimate. I look forward to seeing a few more examples, and the proof that you made it!

JimBob Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Im going to make a kind of gangster. Ill post various different screenshots of me making it too prove that I made it. Ill post it here so anyone can use it. I should be finished in a day or two. Thanks for all your complements in this thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W3Theory || Peter Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 These are well worth over 150$, he does some quality work, I wouldn't listen to these prices as that is just under selling your work. You have great talent and high expectations! I wouldn't settle for anything less than 150 I also think that Is some amazing work! I will also be contacting you about these mascots.

Djkanna Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 $150+ is a fair price as Peter says, nice work JimBob. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob Posted October 14, 2010 Author Share Posted October 14, 2010 Thanks Djkanna . I will be selling my first few mascots for around $100 untill I get some sort of reputation. Ive already got a few orders in so when im done, ill post the work I completed (watermarked). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair, my only concern is that this community is probably not the best for you to sell your creations, here you'll be looking at selling $100-$250 max however for the quality (judging from your provided mascot) of yours people (IE companies, video games, book publishers etc) would pay in the thousands maybe more for bulk stuff. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilith Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 $80 to $130 sounds reasonable for the level of detail in the image shown, I often do mascots in 3d for $50 to $100 the hard part is guaranteeing that the work is in fact your own. Mine is easy to verify as I can provide creation files, animate the characters, show them in different poses, ect ect. But hand drawn / 2d images are much harder to provide proof of creation for. Have you considered watermarking your images through a company that can track them online? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
URBANZ Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 very nice the quality is just stunning i think you should sell some on http://graphicriver.net/ as you would be getting the right community to sell to and maybe the money your looking for also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I knew this wasn't his work when he posted it. For his attitude and to be able to create such good images is just.. unreal. Glad we found the real source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
