New Reference Sheet Policy
9 years ago
General
Hi everyone!
New reference sheet policy: No
I'm sorry. I just can't justify the time I spend on them versus the money they make. While it's exciting to help someone develop a new character, I just don't have the time for it anymore. I take reference sheet commissions then end up spending a long time on them. I just do not think I'm good enough to get these done in a timely manner so I will no longer offer them.
In all honesty, I recommend going with a different artist for reference sheet. To get a decent one from me costs upwards of $300+ and where my skill shines I think is in shading and backgrounds, neither of which I can use in a reference sheet. I'm also restricted by not able to really put it in my portfolio nor sell it as a print. There is just little benefit to me in doing them.
Is this a selfish decision? Somewhat. But my main goal is to have every customer as happy with me as possible. Doing a reference sheet delays other commissions and may not end up with what the commissioner wanted.
I have some fellow artist fluffs that do amazing reference sheets in a timely manner and recommend you go to them first.

Tell them I sent you <3
Once you have a solid reference sheet, feel free to commission me of a pinup or sexy picture of your character. You will be happy with the results!
I'm curious to hear what others think of this idea.
Thanks,

love the ref sheet you did for me all those years ago. Keep being awesome, man!
You're still one of my absolute favorite artists.
I definitely understand your decision on that one. Pour your time and skills into the type of art that you really love doing!
