For nikkeh09's challenge Epic Duo!

I wrote down all the challenges I wanted to enter and I'm trying to focus on balancing all my ideas and time and deadlines xD But on challenge I didn't want to miss is this one! When I thought about an Epic Duo, I immediately knew I'd have to do Bakuman's Mashiro and Takagi, the manga artist-writer team! If you haven't read or watched Bakuman and are looking for an inspiring and cute but knowledgable series, check it out! It was the first series that I read which got me into anime and manga for reals xD
FYI Ashirogi Muto is a name they made up for their team.. Man I wanna look into this series again now.

I love Mashiro's design (the main character, on the left), but I've always had trouble drawing Takagi... that didn't change with this entry xD I have one excuse for my sloppiness tho, I was in the art block at this time. And actually getting back to using Copic markers was really fun and interesting but nostalgic too >U< I haven't done a full marker work in sooo long. I only used digital to ad some effects afterwards.

Anyway, please enjoy~
