oh, sorry. my mind is stuck in "hand drawn" mode. since i manually draw eveything and scan it, i tend to think that everyone does that... sorry! i know it's a lot harder to get smooth lines on a tablet...
Thanks so much for tips, I've drawn this with a tablet and I'm recently new with it so that is why the lines aren't as smooth and clean as I would like them to but I will take your advise and clean even more. Once again, thank you so much for leaving such a constructive criticism! :D
this is very beautiful. i saw the front page, and my eye was immediately drawn to this piece. that is impressive, especially considering that it has no color! very nice.
the pose and the characters evoke a lot of emotion. you captured the mood quite excellently.
the only thing i would suggest is cleaning up the lines a little bit maybe? i really think it looks fine as it is, but you said your goal was to make it look like a frame from an anime, and those are typically very smooth and clean.
though i think the slight jaggedness of the lines helps the mood, too.
all in all, i don't really have many criticisms. very good piece!
Honnestly, comments like those is what keeps me trying harder and harder everytime I draw. It such a sweet boost for my ego, really. Thanks so much for the support!

I love it! It looks great Shadowlight!
The fade out at the edges is wonderful and I love that you included the fold up for where they press together!

This is so beautiful and evocative, dear. You should really do your own manga one of these days...

Awww! Such a sweet picture. I wish I could squeeze that ammount of emotion from a drawing...
I love how you drew the person at the back... Their eyes...
You did a wonderful job, I look forward to seeing the coloured version ^^
