Hello everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!
Here's the December - January update/review on 3 artists! As always, I couldn't name all of the fantastic artists I had the honor of commissioning, because I wanted to give these artists their own special spotlight. But it definitely does not mean that their names won't show up on here in the future. And here they are, in no specific order!

Review: The moment I looked at the artist's gallery, I could see more than one art style - at least three wonderful art styles. As always though, I have a penchant for realism and of course, I chose the option of making the character as realistic as possible. Needless to say, commissioning the artist was an incredibly smooth process. I was able to see updates constantly and I was never left in the dark with the artwork. Personally, it was particularly exciting to see the WIPs on the artist's statuses. I would sign in and receive a tag for an update on my ongoing commissions, and these became some of the highlights of my days. Regarding the final artworks, I am unsure which words are able to fully express my satisfaction in seeing them, but I love every piece to no end. Overall, a patient and multi-talented artist that has now conditioned me to be stoked for status updates.

Review: I remember stumbling across this artist's gallery around the holidays, and wow, what a gift it was for me! I could immediately see a great style and I knew at that moment, I had to have my characters portrayed by this artist. Regarding the commissioning process, I understand sketches can be messy and there's nothing wrong with that at all - it is sketch. However, as soon as the artist showed me the sketches for the artworks, I was already so in-love with the artworks that I would have been happy with that alone. I was always kept within the loop about my ongoing commissions and it was always a pleasure to see the WIPs. Of course, you might have already guessed it by now: the depictions of my characters were simply perfect. Overall, a gifted and attentive artist, and I cannot wait to see future artworks!

Review: I have kept my eyes on this artist's gallery for a long while now and the artist never ceases to amaze me with their realism. (However, as you can see with the artwork provided below, the artist also has a comic style, which is just as pleasing to the eyes!) There are times where I find myself clicking through the artist's gallery, just to absorb the artist's way of shading/coloring the characters. Regarding the commissioning process, it was simple, wonderfully simple, and I was more than pleased with the final artworks. Overall, a highly talented artist with an extraordinary style of realism.
