If they commissioned you and found out that you hadn't been published, I sincerely doubt they'd change artists. When you complete the commission on time and in spectacular fashion as I'm sure you plan, there's really nothing for them to complain about. I was/am AD for Dark Skull Studios and a person's past clients really doesn't play a factor in my decision making.<br /><br />When sending inquiries I sometimes mention past clients but sometimes I don't. I've never had someone respond to one without and ask who I've done work for. So I think it's likely that you're worrying for nothing.Joe Slucherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03207126311688232266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211229836355362221.post-6581499216583573322009-06-15T11:18:06.055+02:002009-06-15T11:18:06.055+02:00The design is very Keith Thompson-like.

These slim robot things usually have to be set in a wide stance, because they look like they're about to fall over. And even if not doing anything in particular, it shouldn't look like it's shy just holding the gun :)<br />So, my suggestion would be to draw more pose sketches before rendering. (and I struggle with this too, don't worry)Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02852127435931262360noreply@blogger.com
