I was right not to color this picture yesterday, the coloring took three hours, much more time than I had. This picture in general took a lot of effort since the communal pose is difficult and I kept the use of references to a minimum. Left side for Sween's nightly form, right for sunny form. Instead of roughly dividing the page like what I see in pictures of this kind, I went for a smooth transition between light and dark, day and night. I kinda have a feeling Lei won't stay much longer in that pose...

The specifics:
•Time taken: Approximately three hours, plus the two for lineart.
•Media used: Color pencils, pastels, micromarker, black gel pen, black thick pen and cool white high quality drawing paper.
•30-day trial: Day 7/30, July 11th 2018
•Technical notes to self: Black, blackish grey and mouse grey get perfect coverage together, and good for that non-shiny black.
