Due to unforeseen circumstances (wayyy more interest than I expected o.o) COMMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED until further notice. (I may reopen if I make enough progress, but for the meantime, I will be taking no new commissions.)
Thanks so much for the insane amount of interest, everyone! I love you all! I will start at the beginning of next week. <3

Does my reserved spot still count? If yes, here's the details!
Spoiler! :
I'd like a full body color of two characters!
Username: Mea Character Name: Madeline and Ayda Character Age: 13 and 15 Commission Type/Price: full body color References: So this is something my friend drew of them, but I'm totally okay with you taking a different interpretation if you want.
As a description:
Madeline is half-white, half-Cherokee, and so her skin tone is a couple of shades darker than your average white person. She has a round face and mousy brown hair that spills just to her shoulders, slightly curly at the ends. She's pretty small and skinny, and she's probably wearing a gray t-shirt and jeans. She has a necklace with a pendant the shape of a falcon.
Ayda is a fairy, as I'm sure you can see from the photo lol. Her skin is a light brown. Her face is more angular than Madeline's, and her hair is jet-black and has more volume. Her wings are standard fairy wings - think Tinker Bell, and they're a light amber. (I hope you're okay with drawing fairy wings, if not, you can just do her head.) She usually wears a green leaf wrap with leggings underneath.
[b]Personality:[b] (Describe their personality, and what position/pose you would like them to be in. Do they have specific quirks or expressions that should be portrayed?)
Madeline is quiet but passionate. I'd love to see her looking deeply contemplative, maybe rubbing her necklace while she thinks, or maybe holding a small stone that she's concentrating on (she'd be using magic to make a talisman, but don't feel like you need to draw the magic or anything).
Ayda is always on the move. If there's a quiet moment, her brain is racing on to the next thing. She's determined and straightforward and always in motion, and so I'd love a pose of her just about to take flight, or in flight.
I hope this isn't too much detail - if you aren't comfortable with some of it, feel free to be interpretive. I'll love whatever you give me.
And if not, oh well. I'll grab a spot next time.
We're all stories in the end.
I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff. -EternalRain
I think you, @Deanie and I are like the Three Book Nerd Musketeers of YWS. -bluewaterlily
Oh yeah, clarification: all people who have reserved count! I listed everyone in the original post. I just don't want to keep adding to the waiting list. Please send in descriptions! @Mea, so you're good! <3

Hey folks! Just wanted to say, sorry that there hasn't been anything posted yet: this week was way busier than I expected. BUT I expect to make a lot of progress soon. Thanks for your patience!

First commission done! @Elinor, here you go! Apologies on the line that runs through the ankles. I picked a piece of cardboard that was sliiiightly too short. Hope you like it!
(I sent the first one, then realized that she has dark hair. )

It's more shoulder/head than torso, I hope that's alright. I had fun doing Jada's flowers with white charcoal (I don't get many excuses to use it haha).

@Mea, here's yours! Sizing may still be off for Ayda, but I wanted to make sure that she was large enough to get the details in. Hope you like it! Done with gouache paint (one of my fave coloring styles).

Username: snowmonkey9 Character Name: Jaylin Character Age: 22 Commission Type/Price: Bust/Head, Color References: I basically would just like you to draw the image below in your own style Hair: Very light cerulean blue Eyes: Tranquil, soft seafoam blue Skin: Darkly sun tanned
Oh and one alteration to the picture would be to give him prominent cheekbones.
I just realized that in the forums, I can attach images directly, and the way that I was linking the images before was making them a little blurry. So I'm going to just repost your drawings here, if you want them in (slightly) higher image quality. Sorry about that!
Click on them for the higher res.
