I did an embroidery bird design for a national park ball cap, and I figured out what the amount of royalties would add up to over five years, then doubled it. It was a great deal for both of us, because I wasn't interested in doing bookkeeping for that amount every quarter forever.
Good luck!

Subject: Re: [SCIART] copyright buy outThe client is asking for “full rights” and I’m pretty sure this includes the original artwork. I, in general, do not do “work Fro Hire” work but if the client wants everything and is willing to pay for it...MarjInstructor: School of Botanical Art & Illustration, Denver Botanic GardensInstructor: CraftsyOn Mar 23, 2018, at 1:46 PM, Griswold, Britt (GSFC-279.0)[LUSA Associates] <[log in to unmask]> wrote:According to the GAG handbook: A "buyout" is slang for an All-rights transfer contract. An All-rights contract is not the same as a Work-for-hire contract. Under an All-rights Contract the Artist is selling all reproduction rights, often in perpetuity, but retains the original art and can sell it as an "art" original, and retains authorship (copyright is not transferred). You can also sign an All-rights contract that has a time limitation. So you would have the right to terminate the contract after the set time period.Britt
