Description FINALLY THIS IS OUT ;A;

Time taken: LITERALLY this took me 11 days to go from looking at the reference (obvs a screenshot) to actually uploading it. Not only did I decide I didn't like it anymore halfway through shading the wall behind the two, but I made some bad decisions partway through the process of shading them that negatively affected the way i wanted to do the rest of the piece. Hopefully you'll all like it though its not bad.

I did everything in pencil and then when i scanned it, of course the scan makes it look like effing crap. I might take a nice picture of the pencil version and upload it separately so you can see. However, in order to make this scan look like I put some effort in, I took it and fixed a lot of it in photoshop, and added the overlay of colors that match the colors in the original scene.

The reference screenshot is from the No. 6 anime obviously and this is Shion and Nezumi. In a little bit of backstory, they have each saved the other's life once at this point, and later in the story they continue to save and defend each other. This is right around when they realize how much they mean to each other. ADORABLE LOVEBIRDS IN DENIAL<333

LIZ HOW THE FLIM FLAM COULD YOU NOT LIKE THIS HOLY FRUDGE GRAH MURMERD

I'm genuinely confused. I actually looked at this for a solid ten minutes with a critical eye trying to find what it is you didn't like about it. No results. This is the best thing you've ever done, oh man. I thought you had captioned a part of the anime from the preview in my messages, no joke.

Just: UGH. Their expressions are calm, but have this hidden tension to them. It's the subtle undertones of emotion that are most striking. And you took the less sophisticated medium of paper and pencil and made it so fluid and nice I want to put it in an ornate gold frame!

UGH. LIZ. SERIOUSLY. GOD.

I think it looks really nice, actually. you're lines are an awful lot cleaner than mine, btw. you did a great job with shading, too.

thanks! i used my 4 graphic pencils after i'd done the initial lineart of the two of them in regular mechanical pencil. i'll show you the actual thing sometime so you can see the difference between that and this.
i'm glad you approve of the shading! all of the shadows and creases in clothing were produced entirely traditionally, the overlay i threw on is one solid color per region instead of regular soft shading. my only real regret is Shion's face being a little too light, but its not that bad, so i'm not worrying about it.
