Advice on costing for artwork

[Extrakun]

Hi all,

I have been thinking about sourcing for 2d art from freelancers, but I have no idea typically how much that would cost and hence have no idea how much to budget for it.

Is there anywhere I can check up the market rate or something?

Thanks in advance!

Well, I just made a long post yesterday about finding an artist. It might be helpful.

I was hoping some more qualified experts would post with their insights or experiences as well but nothing yet...
