First client. How much do I charge for this character?

I found my first client and I need advise on how much should I charge him. 
What's the common price for a model like this? And how long does it usually take to finish a character in this style?

Neox

how can they be your client, if these things aren't sorted out already?

i assume you can do this kind of work. so now you will have to figure out how long it will take. if you can't do it for the whole thing, break it down into individual steps or even pieces if needed.

how long will the blockout take? how long will it take to get the final mesh, how much the painting? if you cant tell for the whole thing, how long does the base body take, how long the face, how long the flipflops, how long the hair etc.

if you don't know, do your best guess

then multiply that guessed time by an hourly or daily rate and you have your pricetag.

you might be wrong, adjust next time.
