Description There was a deeper meaning to this initially. Something about red string of fate, twisted webs, star crossed lovers, etc. But I started to not like the composition part way through, and turned it into an excuse for a pretty space BG. Ref for this one was the Rosette Nebula: [link]

Alice and Tristen still look dang fine though.
But I need to try zooming in more with my frames. Say more with less no?

cheers!

Like the characters? Read their comic from the beginning: [link]

I like how your shading came out, and the background looks great! =^^=

If the red cord is ethereal, maybe a subtle glow effect to enhance that?

Thank you. Always use references if you can.

I thought about that, but with all the glow the image has already, I decided against it.
Maybe next time I'll try putting glow on all the things!

lol part of the initial symbolism that the final kinda lacks. IDK, when I drew eyes their expressions looked to sad to me, this looks more. . . neutral?

I'll probably just draw the eyes next time.

Maybe you could have put like a shadow or some sort under the eyes. (or maybe not, too cliche lol)

lol I know it was an honest critique. I just tend to be sarcastic about everything.

Sarcasm clashing with more sarcasm tend to cause animosity.

lol at least on the internet where sarcasm can be harder to understand. Works for me IRL, but tone and body language play into it alot.
