Hi! I really like your work and I’m definitely interested in considering you for the project.
The main thing I’m still unsure about is the level of realism. The reference images attached to my itch.io post show quite closely the visual direction I’m aiming for — realistic and cinematic rather than heavily stylized or comic-like.
Since your portfolio has a more painterly/stylized look in many pieces, do you feel comfortable working significantly closer to the realism shown in my references, especially for the female character, face, skin, interior and lighting?
I don’t expect you to copy another artist’s style exactly — I’d still want the artwork to feel like your own work — but the overall level of realism is important to me.
If you have any examples that show the most realistic end of your work, I’d love to see those as well.
