A Question of Commission

I couple individuals have raised the question of commissions. I haven’t done a commission in over 4 years. I do the occasional art trade with friends, or simply fanart someone because I feel like it.

But now I’m giving more serious consideration to the idea of opening up commissions.

However, I am uncertain on a couple points and would appreciate some feedback on it.

1) How much is fair? I know that I am not the best on the market, so I don’t want to mark myself too high :p But I’m slow and ponderous. Since my time is valuable to me, I don’t want to price my commissions too low.

2) What is a reasonable way to find buyers? I post my work on y!gallery, furaffinity, deviantart and tumblr. Should I just make commissions available on one place, or should I open them on all and hope I can moderate all of them quickly before I fill up my list? I don’t foresee a huge rush, but I don’t want a backlog of more than two or three individuals.

3) Media would be digital only. There would be on physical copy involved because I work purely in Painter and Photoshop.

4) I think I’ll reserve the right to be picky. If I don’t like your idea, I will probably pass it over in favor of something I’d at least enjoy doing. I don’t think my commissions will be for profit, but more an opportunity to open myself to options. And I’d also expect a lot of leeway. I’m not a professional, this is my hobby.

5) Would anyone actually be interested in commissions in the first place? This probably should have been up near the top before I gave too much thought to this XD
