cost of multi-character pictures?

Just curious what the cost of a picture featuring multiple characters is, roughly.

While I'm not after a fully coloured, shaded piece, more linework pencils than anything else to keep the cost down, I imagine that I'm still probably looking at $70+ for such a thing aren't I?

Would involve 6-8 characters.

checking some DA profiles is a better idea, we are not allowed to talk money here so I think you should try DA and if you need to find artists plz click the DA link in my Sig and check out my friends, and their friends !!!

What she said.

But also, if you look around hard enough, you can generally find a good artist in almost every price range. Some of my current favorites, who are on the affordable side, would be:

With some of the above you could probably even afford colors if you wished. But the main thing is to find an artist whose style you like and which suits the picture you have in mind... Saving X dollars by going with an artist cause he's cheaper isn't really cost effective if it ends up they produce a picture you don't really like.

Hmm certainly going to be interesting looking for an artist that is comfortable doing different styles of characters in one group shot (lizardman, halfling thief, Transformer, four colour spandex, an Exalted, character from Fallout universe and one or two I mayve have forgotten).

DrM - It's easy, just send a note to someone whos stuff you like asking if they think they could do it...

CH - He does great character sheets!
