in 3D many charge through per hour rate. You cant charge it through per-item modeled or through angle. But if the finishing required some simple shader and no-so high res modeling, then you can just charge in package like what soyabean86 suggested. smile.gif

how u charge per hour rate??
how long u know 1 3D scene takes to render?
different view might takes different time. some consumes for hours. even days. yes im not joking, for the one i did, it suppose to takes me more than 20 hours to finish render. exact time im not sure coz end up i cancel it and split render by using around 8-11 pc.

and even u know those, how u gonna know if ur client will wan to make changes or not?? major changes we will charge, but if u are beginner u got no right to bargain. some client will say "want charge meh? if u charge next time i don bring project find u ady lo".

experience such client before? O_O?
anyway, yes there are some people charge through per hour (i guess). u might be right. just that seriously, i dont know how people charge by per hour. nvr experience before.

The total time of the finished render x the amount you want to charge per hour = the total sum. Not to mention that you need to include the charges for modeling and texturing. Animation has to be calculated differently as it will be per-frame based. Changes will be charge at 10% of the total sum calculated earlier and 50% of the total sum calculated earlier for a major changes (may it be remodeling, retexturing)

If you rent a render farm for the rendering then the charge will be the fees you paid for the render farm + 15%.

The reason why you charge per hour is to have a standard rate to your service.

Local client? Then i have to say, its no surprise on you saying that. Theoretically, local clients tend to be very cheap due to their exposure of "want cheap and very good service".
