Yes...There will always be a market for the artists that charge $40+. Keep in mind, the cost of renderings are peanuts compared to the total cost of a development project. I have a client that essentially paid us $24,000 for 1 rendering. It was a unique situation because the client gave us very little time, expected high-quality, and it was a complex project (oh wait, that's all of our projects). Anyways, they paid and came back for more.
My point is that we need to learn to play the market and not fight against ourselves. Your market can bare $40+ if you focus on your client's needs and service them like no one else can. How and where you get your work produced is secondary as long as it is what you promised to your client. Get it?
