So for my birthday my friend made this for me;
As you can see in a few places it's wearing off. He kind of did it last minute and ended up using the rest of acrylic paint(none else would really stick), so we are gonna touch it up. But in addition, although a birthday gift, I wanna pay him to put up the other members "specific flags". For those who don't know
I want to kind of put up around the strawhat flag in a border. My question is, for that effort how much do you think I should be paying him? I could get away with getting him to do it for free but I'm not a d`ick, and he also bought me something else for my birthday too. I'll be purchasing the paint too, so I'm not sure how much I should offer to him, assuming he can do it.
So what you think southperry :B

I think about 50$ for something that high quality and unique would be a good payment...

That flag looks too realistic. It gives me the creeps.

I think you're asking for too much.
It looks fine with just the skull.

I'll consider that  . Just feels so empty, and I love all the different character flags, so I may ask him to to do it seperately in that regard, like mini flags.

Overpay out of sheer generosity and for your friend putting so much effort into a custom made gift. $60-$80 in my opinion for all 8 other characters.

$60-80 is hardly overpaying for eight more flags.

Well they're mini flags  We're gonna talk about it tomorrow. I think I'll be paying him a minimum of $100 though

Happy be.late birthday
at least $100-200. I suggest he does them on seperate flags that way you can arrange them anyway you like.
Did you also get that Crocodile figure too?

I can watch more than one show at once, I'm already keeping up with Legend of Korra. I just won't start until I go back to Brazil and actually have some more time to do random stuff.
And it's not likely I'd simply stop being a brony.

So here's the deal:
Spoke with him about it, he hates it, think's it sucks, and want's to redo the whole thing anyway. So I might do a southperry event for the flag, although I don't know what I'm going to do with it
@ Corn; @ Zelkova; think of something qq

I'll make him make an SP account to answer because I don't know.  He just says he can do a lot better than that lol

Never face an art's major person with logic. They are immune to it.
