[HIRING] Anime Artist, Character Illustration/Design

Hello! Thanks for contacting me. I'm sorry I took so long to reply, but I didn't expect to get the kind of response I did and there was a lot of filtering to do.

Honestly your work has by far been the closet to what I have been imagining and I hope that maybe you can breath life into what I have in mind. With that said I suppose it's my turn to provide more details now for your consideration, commissioning is a two way street after all.

Long story short he's a long time character of mine that has gone through significant changes in aesthetic over the years and I need something that reflects that now. He is an elf in a cyberpunk meets fantasy setting, a member of a of a guild of adventurers where he is a medic -- the healer role of the world.

Here is his current reference sheet (minus the NSFW reference), a previously commissioned piece, and one of many sketches I tried to bash out my idea with.

As I said in my post I'm looking for something that mimics the look and feel of Arknights. I've also acquired some reference pics of operators (characters) from the game that have offered some personal inspiration for his new clothing as my is from a cyberpunk/fantasy setting.

In addition to is change in attire he I would like to somehow showcase the fact that he has fangs now and also wears a muzzle for reasons related to it. If possible I'd like to give him some sort of mechanized staff weapon fitting of a healer and the darker theme surrounding him. I was thinking something with an imposing mechanical driven blade on the end of it (every surgery kit has a bonesaw, right? Heh.)

I hope this is enough for your further consideration and not too much rambling or confusing, I'm honestly a bit excited that I might actually have this realized. I can be more specific as needed/demanded, but after seeing your work I would enjoy some imput and inclusion from you in this piece as well.

You quote ~$60 for a fully rendered piece, but if you find something like this would require more my budget still has quite a bit of wiggle room.
