questions {i didnt there would be a test I DIDNT STUDY D:}
1. hmm well anatomy is very good for females males not so much but males suck anyway haha
2. nice shading a dementions i do really it its nice to look at
3. hmm i cant choose id say your skill gets better with more practice in both areas is i had to choose cellshaded
4.http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6128772/ this looks really nice
5. hmm maybe some more male or couples peices i think or scenery backrounds like vallys and such
6.id say the price should always be the quality and how much hard work you do yet again you want them to be fair so you can compete with other artists cuz if your too high they will go too another and if your too low you wont get whats its worth find a solid middle look at other prices .....i dont even know your prices haha
2. Hands, the female anatomy, and shading. The hands are so great ;o; -i can never get hands- The female anatomy is like you have a model in that pose for you, its that good. xDD And the Shading, its so even and pretty. I love how you shade. <3
3. I prefer painted, because painted to me makes it look a bit more realistic and pretttty ;u;
4. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6691299/
5. More pictures scenery, like for example, you and another person pick nicking some where like really pretty. c:
6. Yes, Your art is very good, and as i say, all art should match the quality of their art. Your art ,to me, is actually work a bit more than your charging for. xD Your probably one of the first good artist ive seen have a full body painted commision for only 45. Most people have that up in the 70s/80s. xD Anyway, yes i think your art price is very fair, even a little too fair. xD

1. It's always hard finding weaknesses in artists I admire! xD But I'll do my best. I skimmed your entire gallery while formulating points and there are really only two minor things, male anatomy and expressions. There's a piece or two I found that could use some more intense expressions for the setting they're in or the actions they're doing... I don't mean to plug my own arts but I have a silly sketchey expression tutorial how I do them here. There's also a lot of expression to be said in a character's eyes, also.
2. I'd say it's your painting style that looks wonderful always *u* you also show strong understanding of female anatomies as well. Wish I could go more into to detail but it's hard when everything is so top-notch Cx
3. Both ;A; I like them both!
4. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/ >u< tis so very sexy heee <3
5. Big boobs...? >u> god I'm so predictable haha. But bewbies aren't for everyone, so I'd say more bikinis x3
6. Not really sure what the exchange rate is, and I'm having trouble finding a price guide D:
Further suggestions? I got one. Stay awesome like usual~ ;3
Actually your prices are very reasonable :3
There's probly even room to increase prices, imo. I've seen worse art go for more xD
Unfortunately this is coming from a poor college student who can't afford it :'c
and about my OC Lich i prefere the quilled hair style from the first pic
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5445175
but this pic shows his tails much better
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4943482/
and if you need better pics i will put some up
and journal link XD
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3142373/
1: my personal opinion. to me no one can say its wrong or bad about your art work cause it should really be about what you want to change or work on. cause only really your opinion matters :3
but i would say your weakness is you draw girls and guys with the same structure. so try changing there structures up. and also you dont really draw guys alot.
2:your coloring style, and your ability to put emotions into digital
3:idk what this style is called but i do like this from you http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997
4:aaww i have alot of favs but umm.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6973559/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6920563/
5:definitely more of this style ^^ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6920563/
6:i would like to say yes they are ^^
i hope i was of help....but to be honest i never win this things so i did it more to try and help
Feet! Dont get me wrong , you do a fantastic job with feetpaws, but I feel they lack a little detail. In some peices, they're dead on. In others, it looks as if not as much time was spent with them as say, the hands. But as for basic shape and anatomy, you have it all down. I think the biggest thing is simply position.
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
Anatomy. You have an excellent grasp of the female anatomy, and from what I can see, you do well with males! You have excellent color choices. You tend to use colors you wouldnt normally see in the wild. I mean that by the fact you use subtle/vibrant colors to really express each peice. Also, I really like your choice of backgrounds. Oh! And fur. Your characters always have those few extra details to establish the length of their fur.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
The cellshaded looks nothing short of great. It's really professional and well inked, colored, and put together. But the painted look really sets your art apart from the others. (Even if its in an experimental stage!) I think Id have to see more to make up my mind. :3
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
Its a toss up between.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/ <-Painted style is epically epic.
https://d.facdn.net/art/kaitycuddle.....e_possajna.png
I think the later moreso because it honestly shows off what you can do! Excellent color choices and epic job with the anatomy and feet. (See? You do well with the feet!) Also, I really like the sketchiness of this particular peice, it gives it a nice suble glow.
5. What would you like to see more from me? Just more art in general. You have a beautiful style and an absolutely lovely character. You should draw more of her! More digital work and I must say, im somewhat curious of your tradition art. Your certainly heading in the right direct with the painted style. Id love to see more.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering? I do! But I do believe that if you start offering painted work, you should judge accordingly with time/resources.

Journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3137646/
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
Some perspective poses seem a bit off or could of been done better, male anatomy (easier to tell with the nude characters... all one of them!) and not enough practice with scenery/backgrounds, not enough fur textures on characters (besides on things like tails and hair)
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
Colors in every way (composition, in patterns, always visually attractive and creative), female anatomy, faces and facial expressions (sometimes stale with the same facial expressions used multiple times... though that's normally commission related!), a well done and continuously developing cartoonist style of art in terms of flat color pieces
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
Your flat color and cell shaded pieces are terrific and by far one of my favorites I have seen, though the painting-style pieces you do are also terrific... but you don't do enough of them (understandable, because they take a lot more time and likely aren't the most popular in terms of commissions)
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6920563/ (forgot to fav it before... but I love the original character)
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Backgrounds/scenery, male characters, painting styles and some more point of view practices... maybe even texture practices as well!
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
I think they are terrific for what they are worth and the amount of time spent on them. Had I the money to spend on commissions I would purchase a painting piece... though only if I got to see the full thing done in livestream. The process of getting art done is exciting!
Journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3137733/
No reference picture available. I want a treant-like character to see some bark textures, but I never finished it (nor will it be done anytime soon... busy!!). I just wanted to review t help ya some
2. Sexy characters.
3. Cellshaded and Painted, I cannot choose one from these two.
4. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6960798/
5. Canine female
6. It's fair.
Sorry, I don't know much about drawing, and hard to make opinion...

Journel: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3138476/
1.Your main weakness i would say is on your backgrounds, and sometimes it can be a little on anatomy - but i think EVERYONE struggles on that!
2. Females, you draw them really pretty and can give them a super cute pose, i love the little faces you give.
3.I quite like your painted, though i like your cellshaded too. But painted gives quite a interesting style ^^
4. I really love the fun feel in this picture http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6691299/ though i feel the leg anatomy could be a little better ^^ but its such a cute picture @.@
5. I would like to see more of your character aswell as more journels from you telling me about yourself and what you get up too :)
6. If your artwork is selling at a nice rate and you fill out at a reasonable speed when asking for commisions. Then yes ofc. But i think its mostly due to what YOU think your art is worth. In genral though id say your prices are good ^^
Oh and thankyou for the chance of free art!
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically? In a few peices the perspective and proportions are off just a tad, but overall I really didnt see anything else.
2. What do you feel my strengths are? Your use of light and textures..the emotion you put into it really shows to be honest
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc). I perfer the cellshaded..but the painted are absolutely gorgeous.
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6923249/
5. What would you like to see more from me? Emotional pieces..your really good at conveying emotion expressions and capturing it.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering? Your prices are really really good actually. If I could talk my fiancee into it I would have some of your art but after my last escapade at the anime convention..he put me on a budget lol.
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3138603/
As for the reference part for characters, I'm currently working on both drawn and written ones for each one of my characters. I can note you them if you like but if I post them here I will flood your page lol.
Kinda something like this for the outfit and her wings:
http://flying-fox.deviantart.com/ar.....sign-119930472
with colours like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7188136/
The blue up her arms..repeats on her legs as well..in this pic she has stockings on.
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
-I would have to say, some of your art lacks some background material, and forementioned by Rika, I did notice a few pieces that had unbalanced proportions - not sure if it was intentional or not, but it's something that I'm pretty particular about being correct. It may just be your style skewed by my eye, though, so don't fret too much. =P One last thing is eye placement and direction needs to be refined in a few of your pieces.
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
-Style, style style! I really love the characteristics of your art and moreover, the painterly effect you have going on with some of your illustrations. Might I ask what your program of choice is?
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
-Definitely painted. You've got something marvelous as far as painting skill goes. =)
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
-Sure! I would have to say it's a close tie between https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6691299/ and https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6920563/ I love the illustrative-like look of Eat Me, whereas Broken conveys great emotion and the atmosphere of the piece is concrete and flows together nicely. I like the rain effect and your light source particularly.
5. What would you like to see more from me?
-Perhaps more illustrative work, and some of your sketchwork. There's a distinct lack of it in both your gallery and scraps. Also, I like when people do those tutorials of their art to see the evolution of their art.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
-Absolutely, and your work is up to snuff with a few artists who charge more for what you'd be offering. I think nowadays people are more about making big bucks (duh!) rather than keeping their clients happy and providing great calber art for a decent commission rate.
1a.) http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y2.....NewTierRef.png (I can provide more if needed, but this shall suffice for now. =3)
2a.) https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3139677/
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically? The lower half of the body. It isn't in every single thing in your gallery, and perhaps it may have been intended to be such way for various reason, but in some cases the proportions for the lower half of the body have sometimes seemed like they could use some work towards being in balance with the rest of the body. Also, I think it seems like feet may not be your strongest area, either. Aside from that, these are the only two things I could find to suggest, otherwise I've overlooked your entire gallery and that was all I could decide to be picky about.
2. What do you feel my strengths are? Females, expressions, coloring/shading, atmosphere.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc). Painted hands down.
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6691299/
5. What would you like to see more from me? More full paintings like the above.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering? They seem fair, easy on the pocket at least. as long as you feel you are being fairly compensated. I wouldn't see a problem if they were ever to go any higher.
2. Your strengths probably lay in shading and blending. Also I like the fluidity. This I've especially noticed has improved dramatically from your earlier works.
3. Wow, difficult. I guess cellshaded just has the edge over painted as that is my personal preference towards that style.Though saying that I particularly love two of your painted pieces especially.
4. I think this one has the edge, but only just, because of the feeling of movement. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/
5. A lot more canines. ^ ^ But umn.. realistically just more art of any kind.
6. for the work put into them, yes. I think you're price is set just right. Also the price scale you've set for the range of each type of commission on offer seems to be nicely proportional.

I think your biggest weakness (but it's not that big anyway) is anatomy. You should study the human anatomy a bit more and use some more reference pictures. You should also challenge yourself with things you're uncomfortable/you fell you aren't good at drawing, like backgrounds or perspective. That's not really a weakness, just a surefire way to improve. c:
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
You have a good sense of color balance, which is often difficult to get right. I personally think your art is quite cute, which is a strength in my book.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc)
I'm partial towards your painted work, but I like both styles. I also like those cute little chibi-like things at the bottom of your reference sheet. They're adorable. <:
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6873866/
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Anything! Art in general!
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
I don't judge people's commission prices, so I can't really tell you if I think it's appropriate or fair, but I can tell you what I would do if I were you. I would get rid of the headshot option because no one really seems to go for it and bump the prices down accordingly, as in make bust the price of what a headshot was and full body the price of what a bust was. But that's just what I would personally do. I would rather undercharge and get lots of commissions than overcharge and get none, so I always charge on the cheaper side. But like I said, that's not to say I think your prices are too high or unfair, that's just what I would do because of my personal business beliefs.
Hope that helped!
Here's a character reference (and just as a note, she has a short snout although some people choose to draw her with a long one), and here's the journal pimping this journal for ya. c:

And no shoes or socks just her paws x3
I personally dont think your male anatomy is all that bad. Maybe widen the arms a bit and broaden the shoulders.
The thing I notice most.. Your elbows seem to be a bit off. Generally, from what I've learned, elbows meet where your ribcage ends. You tend to go a bit farther down with them I think. Your fingertips generally end almost halfway down your thigh as well, I believe.
I think your tail placement is a tad off as well. Tails should start from the end of the spine (Although I think most of your pictures, it could work how you have them, it just looks a bit off to me.)
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
I personally love your icons. All of them look adorable!
Your females are also pretty cute, the faces look adorable as well~
Your lines are really nice and clean!
Your facial expressions are really good, as well as your lighting and coloring.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
Hmm. painted I think. I really like the detail put into the style, and the way it looks in general! c:
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
God I dont know if I can choose xD Hmm.. In order, from my most favorite down:
http://www.furaffinity.net/full/6973559/
I really love this one.. The way it flows is very nice. You look at her face first, and down to her feet, which look amazing. The coloring is really nice, and there is a lot of detail, with all of the plushies in the picture. I love her expression and I really love the shades used in it.. the pinks, the purples, the blues..
The only thing I would change is that her wrists are a bit small.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/
Corsets <3 I really like the white background on this, and how its like a light shining on her almost. Her curves are great, and the coloring is great.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6691299/
Love the feel of this one! The lighting is good, the breasts look natural.. I love how you colored her hair, as well as the whole background and the general theme of the picture. The eyes stand out a lot, adding even more to it.
Her right (our left) hand is a bit off though, but the other looks perfect! I kinda wish the jackolanters glowed as well, but still! c:
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Ferals perhaps? I'm not really into them myself, but I think itd give you more range. Perhaps taurs as well.
I personally would love to see more backgrounds, maybe even super detailed ones~
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
Yes, definitely! Its not too much, and a bit on the cheap side in my opinion. Which is perfect, as long as you feel that you're getting enough for your work.
(Hopefully I didnt put too much, and was okay with everything. I hope I helped, as well, of course!)

Thanks for the chance ^^
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically? What comes immediately to mind is maybe texture. But that's something that looks and sounds very difficult to do so it's not something I'd worry about, but to your credit, you definitely seem like you're willing to play and experiment.
2. What do you feel my strengths are? You don't seem to be afraid to play with different angles and perspectives! Also I've seen a couple of submissions that had some action going on which is always fun to see!
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc). I'm not a visual artist, per se, so I honestly couldn't say for sure. I honestly can't tell the difference myself >_< I write so...yeah lol.
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please! Probably this one: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7022640/
5. What would you like to see more from me? Hmm...well I'll never complain about pin ups! XD
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering? I...honestly don't know what your prices are.
As for the chance at gift art, I would rather not because 1) I only have references for one character of mine and 2) I feel uncomfortable with +watching and then saying "Yay I want gift art!" even if you offer XD

QUESTIONS
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
I would say you need to stay vigilant about posing, some of your recent works look either static or awkward (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7076919/ character on the right, http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7057594/). Your
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
I think your art is great, but your expressions and coloring are what really stand out.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
Painted, I'm a sucker for trad. art.
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/ The whole piece is great, but in particular that pose and expression are just so incredibly wonderful
5. What would you like to see more from me?
In an earlier journal you said that you were going for a less cartoony look. If your newest submission is the way you want to go, then I think you're on the right path. I would love it if you were more active, but with university in the way we understand! If you ever end up splitting completely from the furry community, I'd really appreciate it if you let me know.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
Slightly outside of my price range (assuming I'm reading the prices right, is it $67 for a single-character fullbody painted?), but it's more than fair considering the quality.
Now hurry up and reopen commissions, I need an icon
QUESTIONS
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
You could work a little on realism and the positioning of the characters.
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
Your good with making things look really cute and innocent :3

They are all fairly good I'm not to crazy about the painted.

Um a little too expensive.

Hair is more black and longer covering an eye like in the clothing ref. Sky blue fur other than chest, tummy, inner thighs, tail tip and the stripe that goes down my back to the tip of the tail which is white. Paws, fore arms and foot paws are black. Eyes are Hazel.

Thanks thanks thanks <3 Any questions just note me :3
QUESTIONS
1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
Though I am a big fan of your art I would say body type variation is very lacking in your gallery. Try drawing chubbier men and women as it creates a more realistic body structure instead of having all thin or hour-glass body types. Maybe work on your backgrounds and scenery a bit more as well?
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
Definitely the slender female form and thin males that you draw as well as your eyes. You also do very well with anatomy as a whole and proportion. You also have very creative side when it comes to bring a picture together as a piece of art.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
I would have to say that my favorite style of yours can be best described here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7041513/
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
My favorite piece from you is: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/
I love the feel of the picture and also the pose. I've always loved that character and the picture really brings out her color, personality and it really brings you into the art.
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Like I said before, just more variation in body types mostly!
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
Very fair! I think it's safe to say that you may be underselling yourself just a wee bit though!

1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
One weakness that i can see is your characters' anatomy, they probably need a bit more muscle tone in both the female and male characters. Other than that, I cant see anything else :3
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
You're icons, your paint and cellshading styles and the amount of detail that goes into your characters. :3
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
Painted, it brings out a sense of realism as well as more detail to your art :)
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/ :3
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Maybe some of your characters with scenery in the background, but other than that I like what you're doing so far! :D
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
I think this is a very fair price range :3

1. What do you feel my weaknesses are artistically?
Lack of male characters. Herms and femboi's don't count because they aren't a masculine form. Your unshaded work looks average and boring.
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
You actually draw clothing on characters and aren't limited artistically to nudes, bikini's and corsets. Your shading is pretty good, and makes your artwork stand out a bit.
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
I prefer you painted style like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7300997/ is one of my favorite images from your gallery, followed by http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7022640/, http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7041513/, and finally http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7022640/.
5. What would you like to see more from me?
I want to see more original images from you. Especially in that steampunk clothing style you've been using lately.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
I think your prices are fair. But I don't know how long it takes you to do the top end painted images, so $45 might either be spot on or too low.
Hands and feet could use some practice, but really, that goes for everyone. Hands are pretty good, but in 'Coy' I feel they are the weakest part of the piece. I like your opossum feet from 'Dominique', but your kitty feet in 'Weesha' aren't on the same level.
Doing a little more study of clothes. I love the outfits you draw, but really understanding how different materials wrinkle and fold will make everything look much more believable than drawing lines. Though you do actually get the folds to affect the silhouette of the clothes, so that's good. I think shoes are the article of clothing you have the most trouble with. Citing 'Glamorous' and 'Coffee Break' for that.
Practicing some perspective couldn't hurt either. Dynamic poses will give a lot of life to your work. Compositions are a little lacking, but your customers are paying to have their character in the center of the picture, so that's not a biggie.
2. What do you feel my strengths are?
I think you have a really good handle on the shading - you don't just add black. Overall your color theory is pretty solid. I always enjoy the schemes you pick. Your female anatomy is wonderful. Looking through your gallery I can definitely see how you've grown and changed as an artist, and that drive to improve and experiment is something I greatly admire. I love everything about your most recent piece 'Coy' as well. Your painting techniques to capture the look of fur vs. hair are every effective. I also like how you really made the white background a part of the scene - not just a character standing in front of it. I enjoy the way you do eyes as well. Something less artistic: You're really good at making cute and pretty, which I like to just look at. X3
3. Which style of mine do you prefer? (cellshaded, painted, etc).
Painted, hands down. Your lines aren't bad, but your paintings have so much more to offer visually. I love that you keep some of the lines in your painting - that's a style I've always loved. If your line weights had more variance, I'd probably like them more.
4. Link me to your favourite piece of mine, pretty please!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6992129/
^The perspective is off, and the hands are a bit odd, but I absolutely adore the colors here and they way that you handle them. This is what I'm talking about when I say I like how you use linear elements in your painting. It really reminds me of centradragon's work, and I think it is the coolest. :)
5. What would you like to see more from me?
Full illustrations! I know a lot of people only commission for their characters, but try to include full backgrounds where you can. You really get a lot out of it: perspective and composition especially.
6. Do you think my prices are fair and appropriate for what I'm offering?
Yep, I'd say those are reasonable.
I'm doing a quick revamp, so I'll post my ref later if that's okay. I tried critiquing from one artist to another, so I hope all this helps!
