Hello, I'm looking to commission a full-body character portrait for my Half-orc Artificer (Armorer)/Paladin (Oath of Vengeance) that I've been playing for about two years now.
I really prefer the look of historical and realistic plate armor over the epic but overly bulky high fantasy designs, so being familiar and capable with those kinds of designs is a must. That said, It does have certain high magic elements, but the idea is that it's about 80-90% based in historical design with the magical parts being added on and subtle enough that they don't change the overall impression of the armor while still being noticeable. As much as I love Warhammer, I don't want to turn him into a magitech space marine.
My favorite style of Armor, and the kind I envision him in, matches the German "Gothic" style of the mid to late 1400s, with decorative fluting, detailed edge decorations, and a sallet helm.
In addition to the Armor, he carries a quite large artifact-level sentient greatsword, and as one might expect for a long-term character, is festooned with no small amount of other gear that may or may not get included. For the purposes of the portrait he wouldn't be wearing his helm, though I would be happy to have an alternate render with the helmet being worn because it's pretty cool.
In terms of looks, he's a fairly classic half-orc in his early 30s. Tall, very broad, with olive green skin, brown hair , brown beard, and a set of not-so-prominent tusks.
In the interest of not over-stuffing this post I'll leave out the nitty gritty details, but I've got a fairly solid vision of what I want, so if you're interested leave a comment with some examples of your work and I'll send you a DM. I'd be happy to talk over discord or through gmail. I have plenty of reference images to share as well as a heroforge model that will at least give you a vibe to start with (thought almost all the details will be different).
My price range goes up to $400 USD, happy with any time frame as long as it gets done!
Edit: Thanks for all the responses everyone, after looking over everything I've found what I think is the right fit for me!
