guess it shows off that the initial image was done as perspective group drawing with applied depth through coloring Tijo brighter and making the piano guy darker because of the overall shading style

where there is a lot of space to improve is actual weight, flow and proportion which is imo solved really well in the original art
roughed it out myself with the size you used.



Yeah, I didn't realize Evan was a regularly colored zora (he's actually blue in the game) because of that artwork.
Also I have this very bad/stupid tendency to mess up with perspectives because my brain goes all "2D GAME SPRITE MODE ENGAGED" and remove all perspective so the characters can stand on a flat plane. Oh well.

Love your edit, it makes blue backlights a lot easier to add. I should try to make some outlineless art some day. And the pose is a LOT better... ugh. Stop making me want to remake it all.  :blind:





Finally done with the Indigo-gos, I'll fix Mikau's big head tomorrow but now, sleep, it's 3am.

just some hints what you could look out for in future work.
Actually it might be a good idea to get rid of superflat-mode and actually consider pixels with form and depth too.

after oversleeping the initial sketch from yesterday I overworked it, while trying to keep what was good.
changed mainly the leg/hip placement and worked more on the movement of the abdominals
also I hope I got some of the forehortening of the limbs better readable.
