It's a little tough to say based on your new examples. Your work is great and I'm super jealous of your clean lineart haha, but coloring and shading also add to a commissions pricing (at least in my opinion). Assuming you're willing to do anything from headshots to full scenes it can range, and again you can also have slightly higher pricing if people want a shaded piece instead of a flat color, etc.
Now ofc take all I'm saying with a grain of salt- I'm no expert but I've been around a ton of more experienced artists who have given me and others around me tons of advice on commissioning and pricing.

But enough of my rambling- just flat out I'd say a range of 20

to an upward of 100 or more

. Depending on if you are making a headshot (which would be 20-40ish depending on shading, decor additions, etc.) or a full scene (which would get into the 100-200 range depending on how many characters, shading, decor, etc.).
Another thing to possibly note is how much attention your art is getting. If you're getting a lot of attention at a consistent rate, try raising your prices a little bit. If you still get a lot of attention, try raising a little more. But if that's too much and suddenly you have little attention, try lowering it back down a bit and try to find that middle ground. Finding a good middle ground where you and your audience both like the pricing for your art is important, esp to make sure you get paid for your hard work but at the same time the client feels its worth investing into you.

I hope that helps some. I'm not the greatest at explaining things so if it's a little confusing I apologize ^^'. Feel free to ask me anything if I don't make sense and I'll try my best to elaborate on what I mean <3.
