You are not, sorry. It has nothing to do with proper citation or reference to the creator, it has everything however to do with being a commission that was paid for by another individual. I contacted the original buyer and they verified that the piece was theirs and they did not give permission for others to use it as a reference piece. There are many concept art pieces out there that can be used as reference for your character as per the artists discretion and if you can not find the artist to credit them properly I am beyond willing to help out with the matter, but pieces that belong to others and were paid for by others are not allowed to be used as reference for your character.
