So regarding this journal I made: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8501447/
I got some responses asking for sketch commissions. However, I feel like my sketches aren't really saleable though. They're messy, and more of a shorthand for what I'm going to draw later. And 90% of the time for some reason they are purple.
Is this something people actually want to see for sale?
Anyways, hope some of you enjoy seeing behind my process at least, even if you don't have any input on the question.

Heya!
I wonder if what people meant by "sketch commissions" is more like the time in April when you took traditional sketches like this one: https://sta.sh/0kae0l9442
If your style has evolved to what you have above, then I can see how that'd be a hurdle.

foooooooor example, I managed to find the sketch for this drawing (nsfw) lying around:

I've found that 'sketch' style artworks vary greatly from artist to artist but for the most part they're rough lines+some detail, maybe monotone shading. As Karidon linked above, that seems more common for a 'sketch' style piece of art and these are more rough pose/gestures to work out positioning and the like.
Unrelated/related, that tentacle pose is pretty damned awesome :o

Yeah I tend to only add in character details to sketches just when I'm showing them to commissioners to make sure I'm understanding everything right.
For personal work I tend to skip straight into something like this after roughing in the pose like above: https://i.imgur.com/3pBixTx.png?1 Whereas commissioner gets something like this in between (which isn't something I'm comfortable giving as a finished product either really): https://i.imgur.com/vSUMbf7.png?1
And thank you, its the sketch for this piece: http://fav.me/dbptwto (theres more NSFW versions in my gallery here as well)
