Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing

We work at a rate of $70 (USD) per hour. A price estimate for the entire project is always discussed before the design work begins. This discussion takes place when the project is first scoped and the complexity of the project is conveyed by the client. The graph to the right indicates the typical hours and prices, with lines indicating the typical number of figures for hours worked.

Line graph showing the relationship between time in hours and price in USD, with vertical dashed lines dividing the data into categories of 4-6, 10-15, and over 30 figures, and a note indicating a price of $70 per hour.

Example complexity

A molecular model of a biological molecule, with colored spheres representing atoms interconnected in a complex three-dimensional structure.

Low complexity

<$100

One or two simple elements. For example, single crystal structures. Often, figures which are intended for single slides of presentations fall into this category. These figures typically take less than an hour to create.

Diagram illustrating quantum and classical properties of molecular structures and spectroscopy, including electron and photon interactions with molecular lattices, and graphical representations of data analysis.

Medium complexity

$100 - $700

Most pieces fall into this category. They typically contain multiple disparate components which require time to create and composite. Figures in this category can take more than one hour, and often require multiple iterations.

Digital illustration of a DNA helix with a green line trace and a lightning strike, set against a black grid background.

High complexity

>$700

This category is usually reserved for full page figures, animations, or journal coverart. These pieces require greater time and care to bring the multi-faceted vision to life.
