Description This initially started off as a random pencil sketch, which quickly spiraled out of control. Roughly 18 hours of work later and it turned into this.
Part of the reason it took so long to do is because of my obsession with tiny, finicky little details in my art that no one but myself will ever notice are there. Like this close up of Starla's belt studs, for god's sake. [link]

I pretty much made this up as I went along, the very first thing I did in this picture was pencil Starla's right eye, and everything else I built around that. The very last thing I did was to touch up the black in her belt buckle's eyes.
The plants were by far the most time consuming thing about this picture, I did all sorts of things to them to get them to look the way I wanted.

You can tell they're in Arecellisia because of the ubiquitous (to Arecellisia) spherical structures in the distance. Don't bother asking what the spherical structures do, because I'm not going to tell you.

In case you're wondering, the book Marnie is reading is this ---> [link]

Sometimes the best things come from stuff you make up as you go along. This certainly came out well! It's very cute actually. They really look like they're having a good time. And pigtails rock! Just ask Hope.

Speaking of, when Alone in a Crowd re-launches in about 2 weeks, there's a brand spanking new link for Agents of Endtimes on the links page.

When I get my website up & running I'll include a link to AIAC, which I was planning on doing anyway.
