I went ahead and shaded his hair in a brown and a black if either of these look good enough I'll keep them. I'm going to continue shading the rest today.
(I'm hoping on finishing this commission early this month.)

The second one looks great, thank you!
And thank you for all the time you've put into the commission thus far, I greatly appreciate it! Take however long you need to finish it. ^~^

Here is the shaded version. I went for two shadows and two highlights for extra depths. If you would like I could render it more, blend it a little bit. (I usually don't offer it because it takes a little longer but since you're paying a lot I'd thought I should offer.)

I think it's absolutely perfect as it is, thank you so much, I absolutely adore it!
Please send me a CoD for an extra 500k, and I'll also send over the items I offered previously. <3

I'm glad you like it! I sent the CoD.

Hello I finished my previous commission. If you're still interested I'm looking to start your commission within the current month.

Here's a sketch with the two characters together. If you'd rather have them apart I can do that instead.

I'm still very much interested! And i would prefer if they were apart please <3 even though that is adorable!

Three questions:
1. Can you send the mushroom/junk item for payment CoD early (like at the beginning instead of towards the end)?
2. Would you be willing to communicate offsite for the commission? and
3. Would you be willing to do ship art?

1. Yes that's allowed. I just sometimes take a little time, so I understand wanting to send it beforehand.

2. I can do that. The best way to reach me is probably through my discord. I'll send you my user through a pm.

3. I can totally do ship art. If it's a canon character put their name or a link to their wiki so I can better understand them.

Also it is first come first serve, so it might be a while before I can start yours. If you want to send the CoD now that's alright. Alternatively you could send it when I ping you when I'm starting it.
