請問freelance 設計一個product (eg.火機),平均價值是多少呢??

Wooo....depends on the complexity, such as structure , whether U wanna show the opening of the lighter or not, any detail patterns on the housing, material, views(perspective or explosion view etc).

Say, 3D design a brushed stainless steel lighter without any pattern(if so, just use bump map or displacement map), placed 2 lighters on a plane(1 stand with hood opened and 1 laid down)....um..about.....$2.5~2K in 4Kx3K resolution, spend 1 week, unlimited changes.(Exclude printing)

It's already very cheap in price ga la.

咁好價錢?
原來我收得咁平 畫一幅 都系1.5k
不過唔洗 design 兩 三日就可以起貸
render 8000 pixel for 印刷就另計
最近畫一段 8sec charater動畫 不用background
都系得3k

有時唔洗自己design 都好煩
因為 佢地俾 一些 2d 圖你跟
但好明顯 部份 2d 跟本沒有
小心研究 過 而導致 正面 與 側面是不配合
或是 動作 與 身體結構 不符
但d 客好多時 單單睇了其中一張2d圖 就判斷你所畫
的3d 不佳
要好多時間向d客解釋
而我也試過好多次在這情況下同d客爭執

咁又系呀!!!不過客始終系客,拒地唔熟識有關技術,對牛彈琴,拒地只會要求最後制成品,過程系點自己攪掂!!

The price u all stated may be corrected, but it may not include the engineering knowledge, u see, sometimes what we drew may not be machinable and workable. What's most valuable in Product Design are balance b/w aesthetic and feasibility of the product, that is to have a good look while at the same time, able to be manufactured. Most of the client didn't notice this point, at last , they might even have to ban the original design and look for another feasible one, what a waste of time then. So....when something is expensive, there must be a value for it.
