Description
Finally. The twins' intro.This is Alimar and Alina, the Carrick twins.
Contortionism has always amazed me. I found inspirations for these two in my past and, well, knots. Hence their last name, after the Carrick knot, and the pose reminded me of the overhanded knot :/ Also, I've wanted twin characters for a long time
I dunno why, so I found more inpiration for their designs, mostly from the Hitachiin twins from Ouran High School Host Club, and the Kagamine twins of the Vocaloids.I'm actually very happy with how the outfits' material-look came out. All... shiney, but soft. Didi probably designed it XD....
I know I'm asking for trouble for having twin characters, and even more trouble making them a dancer/contortionist pair. 9__9 But I don't see anything wrong with a sibling pair being able to be mature enough to dance with each other. I'll be prepared for any "twincest" cracks if ever this story makes it to the public one day...
I was in a dance class when I was younger, for about three years, so I found a lot of inspirations from my past to create these "circus" characters
Littlecheese... clean your scanner out! There's eraser bits on my pictures! lol

Seeing the twins and ready the story brought this to mind. www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3yq3M… . I know its not the same, but it has a similarity. Thats up to you to decide.

The symmetry, definitely.
I don't remember much of the Escaflowne movie; it's been a long time since I've seen it. I actually rewatched the series not all that long ago for nostalgia's sake

Its been a time since I've seen both the series and the movie, but then I was more fond of the series and loved the song Sora in the movie. I just started watching Digimon for the same reason. In fact I've felt like I did when I first watched it, wide eyed and amazed in wonder.

I just made it to wizardmon's death. Ep 38ish I think. I'v noticed a pattern. It sees if a char dies it tends to be my fave. Odd I think, but then I choose before I know they die for example Kamina from Gurren Lagann, Hige from Wolf's Rain, Deathscyth from Gundam Wing, Hot Ice Hilda from Outlaw Star, Captian Avatar From Star Blazers, Tochiro Ooyama from Captain Harlock, and Piccolo from Db Gt to name a few. And then theirs an even longer list on ones I like that don't die.

Not like I was planning on watching any of those.
Now there's almost no point.
