I wouldn't worry about skilling on a time crunch. I have somewhere between three and five portraits to do before I can even think about this one, depending on how badly Jovani and Tenebra need their hats added on.

Also, I need to make sure that you know these are exclusively facial portraits. That is, no body. I spend five and seven hours at a time of faces alone; between the exponential increase in work and the fact that I really just don't like doing bodies as much, the demanded price for a body portrait would be much higher even if you could talk me into it in the first place. So, we're on the same page about this, yes? I can happily do just the face, but if you don't want just that, I understand.

Beyond that, if you have any questions about time frame or process or anything, er... Yeah, I'm here.
