I have found FIVE (
) ARTISTS 
on DeviantArt 
but I can only pay to commission one 
THE ARTIST WITH THE MOST VOTES WILL MAKE THE NEXT HIGH-EFFORT MARSEY CAT GIRL ILLUSTRATION 
ARTIST 1: KAPO12
Pros
- Korean
- Fledgling artist, so not only would she be eager, but we could help jumpstart her career
- Limited posts show decent but consistent art quality
Cons
- Hasn't actually stated whether she'd accept commissions or not
- Fledgling artist, so she might lack the skill to do Marsey OC
- Only 3 posts
ARTIST 2: Yunann
Pros
- Good at drawing developed adolescents - perfect for Marsey
- Large portfolio
- Only 500 watchers so she's up and coming
Cons
- Westerner
- Art seems to vary in quality
ARTIST 3: Eloru
Pros
- Large portfolio
- Consistent quality
- Exceptional in details and embellishment
Cons
- Westerner
- All of this chick's faces have the same overly neotenous features that look more childlike than adolescent
ARTIST 4: NNEMUINEKO
Pros
- She from Thailand!
- Consistent quality
- Alternate art style from others - soft like Marsey's heart
Cons
- They/Them pronouns probably a ladyboy
(wait is this a con?) - Seems keen on using chromatic aberration
- Art is good but not great, nothing that eyecatching
ARTIST 5: ShimayaEiko
Pros
- Massive portfolio, Marsey would be in safe and experienced hands
- Consistent quality
- Art quality is exceptional across the board, is capable of doing multiple styles
- Latvian
Cons
- 5 thousand watchers holy shit
- Probably has a ton of other commissions already in queue
- Was once a brony
TIME TO VOTE - I HAVE $300 USD TO SPEND AND NOT A DOLLAR MORE
UPDATE: Artist 1 flaked, Artist 2 responded and is underway!

Unironically the best decision I ever made was to do business with a Korean once based on absolutely nothing other than that I was an anti-mayo racist and Korean supremacist. Changed the entire course of my life. Always go with the κ΅.
Also if you're into weebshit, just look at Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children. Koreans are better at doing anime than μΌλ³Έcels.

REEEEEEE that's not true the Park Chung-hee regime had a systematic plan to build an export-oriented economy from the 1960s. They went into textiles first, then gradually built up heavy industry like steel and chemicals and then shipbuilding, cars, electronics. Which was very controversial at the time and went against the prevailing wisdom of how poor countries should go for import substitution. They only started exporting their culture because it is objectively superior to the rest of the world and they wanted to help us learn how to be civilized.
