NOTE: As of September 2017, I am temporarily closed for reference artwork. I just don't have the time to devote to making them. I hope to re-open them soon!
Thank you for your interest :)

NOTE: The difference between a "fursuit" reference sheet
and a normal character reference sheet:
Fursuit reference sheets are primarily to show markings so your suit builder can accurately translate them into 3D costumes. Accessories and clothing are not included because they can cover markings or muddy up the details.
Character reference sheets are to show your character's markings, but also personality and style. These are more suited for artwork commissions and not fursuits.
A fursuit reference sheet may be used for either fursuits or art commissions, but a character reference sheet is often not suitable for a fursuit.
I offer three different types of ref sheet. The backgrounds are mostly white by default - this is so your fursuit maker can more easily print them out! If you'd like a secondary version with a colored background, just ask.
These are made off a modified template, like a lot of fursuit ref sheets. The poses are generally the same, because this most accurately shows the design, and allows me to charge a lower fee to make them, as well as a faster turnaround. However, you are welcome to request changes to expression and of course, ear shape, muzzle shape, etc! So while they are template-based, they are as customizable as you want to make them!
Template Based ($30+):
I also offer the option to have the three-view reference sheet drawn from scratch, as opposed to template-based.
Examples:
Deluxe ($65+)
I also offer "deluxe" ref sheets. These are entirely custom drawn and include up to three extra drawings, usually head shots or other detail shots. More may be added for a higher fee.
Please note:
These are all "starting" prices. Your fee may be higher based on complicated markings or extra things like wings.
Redraws are done for free within reason. If I make a mistake, I will fix it for free. If we are designing a character for you together, changes are free while we decide what looks best from a design point of view. However, coming back later after you've told me you were satisfied with the artwork may incur an extra fee, so make sure you are really happy with the artwork when you close the commission :)
