Description

For a moment, there chatter and din inside the bar was as nothing; there was Amantha, and there was Paige, and that was all that was needed in the world...

I wanted to whip up something particularly special for my 700th posted deviation, and since I have been working on concept pieces featuring my own characters, one featuring my leads was only fitting. In fact, I laid this out with the intention of using this as my desktop wallpaper.

I've had pieces featuring Amantha and Paige before, and it should be evident that the two are certainly an item. Here, I wanted to put them in an intimate mood in an unlikely setting, particularly Vana's crowded bar. The tabletop was particularly fun to work on, and there are a few other significant characters hanging out in the background.
