[A little over an hour later, he sends some okay sketches along with a terribly lengthy and flowery description that boils down to 'Super aloof and arrogant, high cheekbones, straight nose, pointed ears, long straight hair that looks like he was born in a shampoo commercial, and lots of ice and 'frozen north' motifs but in a tits out way'
---- Eventually sometime in the next few weeks: the picture when done, after much hassle and a lot of nitpicking to get things just right (no, more arrogant, like the viewer is a worm and should be so ashamed of daring to show themselves in his presence that they should be willing to kill themselves for the audacity) should come out something like this.]
[ it's a good thing he has a lot of experience drawing real people, otherwise this may have been a tricky assignment. as it is with his work, kyle commits himself to it before delivering the result. ]
[Once he has the final result, he's very misty eyed because look! It's his husband! His literal fantasy come to life! Who he may never see again...]
It's good. Hey. I know I'm paying you excessively well for this - and you deserve every dollar and then some don't doubt that - but uh... if you ever need a favor of any kind? Give me a buzz okay?
Like, it doesn't matter what it is you want. You want me to mail you a case of soda that's only sold in one country, I'll mail you a soda. You want me to bury a body, it's buried. No questions asked. I'll do it.
Nothing short of having my husband show up here is going to be enough thanks for this.
Oh. Right. Please don't share this as an example to anyone. It's very personal. But if you're looking for more commissions, I'll rec you on my channels.
