I LOVE IT!!! This is perfect!!! I love the pose and expressions so much. This totally made my day!!! Thank you Nova. I will definitely be back for another one for sure.

I'm thrilled you like it so much! I considered all of your specifications and did my best incorporate them into the piece. Thank you again for commissioning me! Feel free to send me a note whenever you're interested in another one!

This looks sooooo so good!!! Your commissions are always so polished and professional looking; not to mention you have a unique but gorgeous style and incredible turnaround time and business ethic!! Forgive me cause I know NOTHING of these characters but that doesn't matter cause your art is AMAZING! I love how you did Ocelot's ear and nose to really express his age in this piece. And I just love all the lines in his hair, showing how it pushes itself back. The way that there's so much linework up at the top really conveys the texture, and the age of his hair. I love how it falls on his shoulders. I love the subtle yet noticeable differences in their body types, and how Kaz has this pudgy belly. Man I love the shape and line of Ocelot's nose, too, it really makes it three dimensional. Incredible leg detail on the both of them and WOW I love how you did their shoes!! Ocelot's spurs look so good and I love how you drew his heels and how he has these fine little toe movements. Kaz is missing his arm or hand, yes? Cause his sleeve over Ocelot's leg looks so so well done and like, it just looks so realistic. And it's hard to explain but something like that would be more difficult for lesser skilled artists to convey from just looking at it alone. I love all the details in their uniforms and WOW you did such a fantastic job of Kaz's glasses; I love the colouring on them! And I love how you drew his hat, like that's gotta be one of the worst kinda hats to draw BUT LOOK HOW AWESOME THIS IS! I love the slight highlights you did on their clothes and how you got their facial hair. And their pose is so friggin' cute, you just draw romancey poses so well and people interacting in general so soooo well. Really lovely little shading bits that reflect the materials that are being shaded on their clothes. And I think the simple background with the little circle below them that they're sitting on is super eye-appealing and the colour scheme suits them and that series!! Such beautiful work on this.

ahhh, thank you so much! yeah, kaz is missing his arm and has an empty, noodle sleeve flappin' about. those are always fun to draw, i'm glad you think it looks so good! and, yeah, wow, just... thank you for ALL of the lovely compliments?? especially given that this is one of my 'messier' commission tiers so i'm surprised you're able to read everything so well and find it so polished. i really appreciate all of this detailed feedback and the time you took to write it!!
