ITT: discussions about payment and the rules.
my dilemma is that at the start of a project i agreed to the price of 50 AUD per page (i know im cheap) of coloring for a small comic book company with a total of 12 issues each with 32 pages.
but i just got paid for the first issue and the guy paid me with USD instead...
whilst in writing it clearly states that we agree upon 50 AUD...
basically i was supposed to get paid 1600 AUD but i received 2113 AUD.
what would loomis do?
can i get in trouble legally if i dont point it out to them?

Honestly, do the right thing. You don't want to come off as a shifty jew if they find out.
It can give you a quick buck but long term pointing out that they made a mistake will make you look like a class act and may even earn you a bonus and ensure future gigs. Speaking from experience here.

>shifty jew
Thats kinda funny, because the client is a Jew.
still.
I'm kinda thinking to do what you recommend.

agree with the other anon, ESPECIALLY with long term projects

Think of it this way - the trust you earn by being honest is going to be worth more in the long run than those extra dollars you could potentially grab now.

So good on you anon. If you're getting work, and making connections with people, and getting work published your reputation is going to be important down the line. You want to be known as someone who does good consistent work who doesn't cheat. You want ppl to trust you.
