Since I'm going to be doing more GW2 art, I figured I should show you guys what helps me work best!
This is my Elementalist in her REGALIA~
As you can see, the picture taken in Lions Arch is washed out and not true to color. However, the Dressing Room (where you go to dye your armor) has neutral lighting that makes it really easy to see what the colors in the characters armor are.
SO PLEASE, if you ever want a character commission from a game (WoW/SL included!), please give me something like THIS! All three of these give me something I can work with, and also there's the option of showing me the character in a pose/in action.
Thanks! And I hope this was helpful!

Now you're tempting me to commission a pic of my Asura guardian (and reinstall GW2). :x
