Hi,

My name is Valdeci Rodrigues and I would like to invite you to visit my portfolio on Deviantart.
I have just finished my first issue on a comic book for a small company.
I'm available for sequential art pages, pencils or both pencil
and Inks on a page rate of at least US$30,00.
Also, I prefer to deliver the high resolution files after the payment (I'll send a low res file before).

If you like my work, please send me an e-mail: valrodrigues@outlook.com
or pm me on Deviantart.

Dude, you are much better than 30$ page, do not underestimate yourself :wink:

I'm going to chime in here and do something I haven't seen a lot of and say that Val, your work is worth more than $30 a page. You and I have much different styles and I can't imagine we're really in competition for any jobs, so I'll say that you should be in the $70 range as a new artist, which is where I've set myself. You can draw at a professional level. How long does it take you to draw a page? At least a full day, right? I expect that any new to the scene artist who can draw at a professional level could be humble enough to draw for the equivalent of US minimum wage -- but no lower except under exceptional circumstances. Like let's say as a co-creator of a project on spec. Or if it's one big graphic novel job.

That's just my opinion. Others may disagree.

You should be getting at least 100-150 usd per page. Very professional work.
