@xvz: HMMMMMMMMMMMM... never thought much about process tbh but lemme try.
1- Reason for making character: If story or RP based, what role are they filling? If design only, what is the main source of inspiration?
2- Major aspects of appearance: What is most important to their look? What makes most sense for their role/story, or what concepts do I most want to use? Could be any trait like nationality, color scheme, species, clothing style, occupation...
3- Personality: What kind of person are they? What are their basic likes/dislikes, hobbies, etc?
4- Minor aspects of appearance: Tweaks and smaller details to better reflect personality and lifestyle
5- Backstory: Where do they come from/how do they fit into the story/how did they get there?
6- Details: Fine-tuning and stuff a lot of people wouldn't really think or care about that makes the character more of an individual. Favorites, details or their past, quirks and habits, answers to what-ifs, who their friends are, how they feel about certain topics or events, and so on. This can go on indefinitely, depending on how long I've had the character/how much they're used, and can cause future changes to their designs, driving character evolution over time.
My oldest story characters have been through so many changes, they're not even the same character any more as I've molded them from "random design I liked at the time" to "fleshed out character who has a purpose and a world to fit into". The ones who started out being made for a particular world and purpose have, understandably, changed less. The ones who have remained "design and vague personality/backstory only", which I just keep for making/getting art of and don't really belong to a story or RP, aren't as prone to change unless I get bored lol

@count trashula: ooh thanks for sharing! super helpful
i copied it into my notes for reference next time i'm character designing :3
like i think one of my characters could use some more backstory!
and that makes sense, if you're not using them as much you're not as forced to work out the kinks lol
i've never really thought about making characters just to have, it seems really fun and i wouldn't mind getting into it more ^^

@xvz: Glad that helped in some way; I guess I've been making characters for so long I took the process for granted. It's a fun thing to get into, and sometimes interesting stories can be built around characters rather than the other way around. Good luck with your designing.

i've never thought about building stories around characters but that's such a good idea i'll have to try that sometime!!! :-)
i guess it must feel intuitive for you at this point!

@xvz: Ahh! So happy to hear that. Your art is absolutely amazing and it would be an honor to have some of your art.
And actually, I was leaning towards a colored bust. )Possibly painted???)
There was a specific sample of yours that I was really drawn to, but I couldn't figure out if it was just flat colored or painted. So if you could let me know, that would be extremely helpful.

I'm also having trouble deciding what character I would like drawn. Since I'm an (aspiring) writer I have a lot, so it make take me a little while to pick.

@xvz: Of course! 
And thank you so much! I'll probably only be able to afford one at the moment though.
I was thinking 25k for the base price and the additional 15k would bring the price to about 40k. The price guide hasn't been updated for awhile, so I just took the middle price for everything and the items total about 5k. Meaning I'd owe you another 35k.
I'm totally okay with paying that much as long as it sounds like a good enough offer to you. I just have to decide who I want done first, lol.

Would you like me to add the items to the trade ahead of time at least? And then I can add the volts once we get the commission going.
