One-off fantasy rpg character commission needed


I'm a fantasy RPG gamer in need of a picture for my latest character.  Due to her unusual race, there isn't much publicly available that I could find to use.  I'm looking for a full body action pose, preferably one with a three-quarter view of the face that I could crop and use when I only need a head shot.  (If that really doesn't work for an action pose for you we could possibly negotiate a separate head shot though.

If you are familiar with the Pathfinder system, the character sheet is here for your perusal: www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.htm…

A full description of her race is here: archivesofnethys.com/RacesDisp…

First thing I will say is style is not all that important to a certain point.  I could see semi-realistic, anime, or comic book hero styles all working out just fine.   Not looking for chibi though.

There are a few things that I will be looking for.  Once we've agreed to work together, I'll give you a more complete description, but there are some points I will use to select an artist.

1.  She comes from The Shackles, a chain of islands known mostly for pirates.  So if you have any examples of pirate women you've drawn before, that would be a big help as she'll be similarly attired.

2.  Use of color is going to be important, so I definitely want to see samples that show full use of vibrant color.  When I look at her blue skin, I want to feel as though if I were to reach out and touch it, ripples would form like touching the surface of a lake.

3.  Speaking of skin colors, my character has a special ability called Flesh Chameleon.  "Some undines can change their coloration to match human skin tones. An undine with this racial trait can change her natural blue hue to match any normal human skin tone."  So what I'd like is her action pose to show her skin mid-transformation.  Have you done anything like this before?  I'll definitely defer to the artist what looks good here.  Because in some poses it might be difficult to capture this plus the point above about the blue skin.

4.  Her main weapons are a rapier and crossbow.  Do you have experience in drawing these type of weapons?

5.  Being a creature of the see that lived among treasure loving pirates she fancies jewels of all sorts, but especially pearls.  Is this something you feel you can work in?

Of course, it always comes down to money.  I wish it didn't, but with child 4 due to arrive any day now, I'm not exactly made of money.  So please be sure you give me your prices up front.  If I really love your work, but can't afford your price right away, I'll probably ask if you'd be available to start in August instead, so I have time to save up a little bit more money.

I'm going to be somewhat picky regarding whom I select, I'll probably even keep the offer open for a while just to make sure I get a good selection of candidates, so don't be discouraged if I don't contact you back right away.  (I'll try to acknowledge your interest though.  I've applied for enough jobs where you never hear from the potential employer after a while to know how much that sucks.)

Know however that if do end up selecting you to work on the commission it's because I have full faith in your ability to deliver the results I'm after and full payment up front will not be a problem.

Thank you!

How goes it. You seem to have everything under control so I will get to the point. There are 1 or 2 items on your list that I haven't drawn before but I know I can do it if I try eg rapiers. with that said I have full confidence in my ability to portray your character at her best. I'll leave some examples for you to look at. I will be looking forward to your response.
