I imagine, depending on the amount of work involved.. but let's say 40$ an hour, probably 3-6 hours of work for a guy like this: http://ukitakumuki.deviantart.com/ You could probably get someone cheaper by looking for artists not residing in places with high incomes.. like Singapore.

I've been writing a space-western (posting sort-of-daily episodes to get feedback), and it's getting almost to the point of being finished enough to think about publishing, and so I'm starting to think about these sorts of details. Any and all info on the subject welcome, here or as a comment to a post on the story. So how much does decent cover art cost?
