Some of my original art
 
I keep finding stuff I drew awhile back and posted on the forums. These are four pieces that I found in a folder in my office. I hate to just throw 'em out so I figured I'd put 'em on eBay with a cheap starting bid and see if anybody wants them. Here they are:

And this,

which I was surprised to find. It's the line art from this:

Good luck! Ask away if you have any questions.

Loooove that Mikey!!!

Thanks guys! And these beautiful pieces of art... COULD BE YOURS!

Last chance on these things, guys - anything that doesn't sell is bound for the shredder (which only seems appropriate)!

Did yo end up selling them?, or have they been shredded

Jay $tarkiller 04-16-2013 09:47 AM

I sold Mikey to Raph12 but the rest of them are on the trash pile. C'est la vie! The market has spoken!

Why not sell them for shipping cost and a few bucks... not $10+ etc

If you really want them out of your way but in a good home .....make the prices lower or just for shipping costs.

Good question! Here's why.

1) Shipping is a pain - you have to package these things carefully in a reinforced envelope or tube, or they'll get damaged. That takes time and effort, and I'm not willing to put the time or effort in unless I'm making some minimal amount of money. If I could fold 'em up and send 'em out for the price of a stamp and a business envelope, sure!

2) As far as the pieces going to a good home, there are hi-res scans available online for anyone who wants to see them. Once the piece is scanned in, these original pieces have no value to me (or anybody else, based on my eBay auctions!). So no sense in keeping them unless I have a specific attachment to the piece. These pieces, I don't.

3) Giving stuff away devalues everything else I do, at least in my mind. It's why I don't take on freelance jobs that pay $50 or $100 for two or three days of work. That means I don't work as much as I'd like to but it also means I keep my prices where they need to be.

You could offer to send them cheap, but warn they will be folded.

Giving stuff away does not devalue anything. You recently entered a contest and were not paid for it... but the promotion makes it worth it.

Not everything free is invaluable nor makes your work less valuable. I have done free work for musician friends that helped get me a huge amount of new clients. That in return made up for the free work!!
