Hello Deviant Art,
Like a lot of people I'm working on a novel and desire to see my characters. I've had two previous artists with great success. My first was unable to continue due to having a new family to raise and the art was only a part-time/hobby thing for her.
My second artists has disturbingly fallen off the face of the Earth. You can see her work on my Deviant Art page. Her page is also linked in each illustration and quite frankly the bar is set high with her work. I must also state that if she returns I will resume using her. However, any commission started will be fully completed as agreed.
The style is semi-realistic and will have lots of directed details. The illustrations I'm having done are intended to be profiles of each character. They will be color with full body and no backgrounds.
I will probably drive you nuts with the details. A lot of the characters will be wearing uniforms and the little details about uniform doodads have to be correct as they will be matching already written story line.
Feel free to respond to the thread but PLEASE send me a note at the very least. With these types of ads I know there will be an avalanche of interest and the notes make easiest to keep track of who I am talking to.
I'm happy to use PayPal or Western Union for payment. Please discuss your rates in a note.
