Okay, let’s tackle this. So Tom Wholley has a broad range of skills, including illustration, logo design, and 3D modeling. While he’s proficient in several software tools, his specific skills might not be in extremely high demand. Location is Boise, Idaho, which is a smaller market. Considering his skills and location, I’m estimating his hourly rate to be around $75, which is a bit lower than average for a graphic designer in the US. However, his expertise in 3D modeling with Maya and Vray could potentially command a higher rate. Let’s check averages. Junior graphic designers with similar skills might average $40–$60 per hour, while senior designers with more experience could average $100–$150. Given Tom’s skillset and experience, I think $75 is a reasonable estimate.
