Alright I want to start an art shop and have no clue how much to charge. Since it looks like there are other artist on here I would like to know an honest opinion of what a good price would be. Please help.

Honestly, I'd say it should be around at least 4k. I gotta say that your anatomy needs a bit of work though.

Yeah I know I am working on that. I am entirely self taught so somethings are harder than others. The first one is supposed to be a bit disproportionate Its a doll. That one the one in pen. And the one I did on paint are recent.

i taught myself how to draw as well. my suggestion is find other people's work and try drawing that. i also found that da vinci's vitruvian man is a great tool for proportion of human anatomy. i know your works won't be perfect, but it helped me with anatomy.
now, for prices, i'd give away avi art and whatnot for the first week that you have your shop open, then once word of mouth gets out, i'd start charging a small amount. once demand goes up, then raise your prices accordingly. the most important thing is to listen to people in the threads on your shop. if you get a lot of posts saying your prices are too high, then maybe they are.

Thank you for the imput. It is me and my friend. We are going to star out low. I have been doing freebies for too long.
