I would have to say that my commission experience with Kevin was the best that I've ever had. It's not just that he delivered an incredible drawing, but Kevin was a true professional throughout the process. He would let me know what the status of the commission was. Kevin emailed me roughs, let me have some major input into the piece, emailed more roughs, sent a scan of the finished pencils, and finally, the finished piece. I had never spent this much for a commission before, but it was well worth the money and I would work with Kevin again in a heartbeat.

Here's a link to the finished drawing: http://qurls.com?i=2842
And here's a link to the gallery that shows all of the roughs, pencils, etc, so you can get an idea of the process: http://qurls.com?i=2841

Yes, Kevin has been one of my best commission experiences ever. I had the same experience you did as far as getting roughs to approve and regular updates on status.
My commission was published in his Tomorrows book and can also be seen here.
