Professional Price List / Work Process
Here are my current price lists for 2022. Feel free to email me at adam@oflore.art for a custom quote.
Prices of artwork are dependent on complexity of the piece. I use a number of different techniques in my artworks and some take more time than others. Please see below for examples of different styles with prices for each.
A discounted price list is available for unsigned bands and artists, please contact me for a link.
*please note* prices do not include print or physical production. This is extra and depends on size and quantity. In the case of one off prints of commissions, I have a recommended printer I use. For album cover packages you need to source your own printer or I can source a company for an additional fee.
Artwork Styles
Below I have collected some example pieces with prices. Please note, these are only guidelines. Every project is unique and has different requirements, these are just 3 examples of styles and prices that can be used on your project and are not meant to be 100% rigid. Please contact me for a custom quote.
Style A
A minimalist line drawing style with some simple shading. This could also include personal/custom sigil design or simple band text / logos.
Prices start from
£250+
Style B
A full figure / character design or ‘scene’ in a line drawing style with minimal shading. Portraits and face closeups also applicable here.
Prices start from
£500+
Style C
This is my most complex and time consuming style of artwork. Using both line drawing, shaded styles, textures and intricate details in a full frame classical style and layout.
This style of piece takes extra consideration and planning.
Prices start from
£1.5k+
Work Process & Payment
A 50% deposit of the quoted amount is required BEFORE I begin work. This secures my time and safeguards payment for the work I do.
After the 50% is paid, I create a rough sketch or sketches of the artwork, be it a brief from the you or ideas of my own creation. This is sent to you for approval.
Sketch / Mockup Examples
See images for examples of the type of sketches I would deliver to you outlining the concept and colour options.
Once approved I begin work on the final artwork.
Final Stages & Artwork
Depending on the project I may send work in progress artwork through at various stages. Also depending on the project, I may request another 25% of the overall amount {in cases of a very time intensive or long drawn out project} whilst working on the final piece.
I don’t charge extra for a small number of small/minor amendments however extra charges would apply for a large number of amendments or big changes to the artwork layout itself.
Final artwork is then sent for approval. Once artwork is approved I then send an invoice for the final amount.
Final full resolution artwork is not sent until final payment has been made.
Please contact me at adam@oflore.art to discuss your project and for any questions you may have.
Design / Layout Pricing
Pricing for design & layout is in addition to illustration work.
For example, you could choose a style from above, A, B or C and then the price of a package for a musical release on CD or vinyl would be in addition to this.
In general, the album package would consist of a main cover illustration plus interior elements, ie, text layout and design. Elements from the main cover illustration can be used throughout the rest of the package. This falls under the design layout price. However, If additional original illustrations are required for throughout the package then this will need to be priced differently.
For CD Digipak package:
As an example ~ 6 Panel Digipak with 4 panel insert leaflet and CD Label including preparation for print:
Prices start from
£500
Vinyl Package Design
Similar to a CD digipak package.
Design & Layout including cover, rear, inner slip, inner booklet {4 panels} and 2x label designs plus preparation for print.
Prices start from
£500
Book Layout / Design
Design and Layout for books and magazines including preparation for print.
£please email
Due to the vast variety of book sizes it is necessary to discuss the requirements before quoting.
Other Things to Consider
The process is sped up when telling me as much as possible about your project, the ideas, themes, intentions, goals etc. Also consider the following
For personal commissions and pieces:
~ Concept and ideas behind the piece, what are you trying to convey/communicate?
~ Have you researched the idea yourself first before approaching me?
For album / band artwork
~ Have you thought about text, song lists, credits etc for your cover artwork? If these are done early it means less changes later on.
Please contact me at adam@oflore.art to discuss your project and for any questions you may have.
