I was planning to draw a pic of Chip n Dale like this for a long time, but I should draw all the commissions first.
I don’t know why, but I think there is not only happiness between the chipmunks as we seen (despite the fight, quarrel, bonk…etc. ), but also sadness, sorrow, and something that the others will never know. Something they hide deeply in their hearts, and use life time to protect.
I don’t know whether I’ve express myself well, but this is the Chip n Dale in my own vision. Enjoy.

It's a very nice and emotional picture. Only thing I'd say as a critqiue/suggetion would be about the color choice of your background. It may send conflicting ideas in the viewer about whether its a 'sad' sad scene, or a some what sad 'love' scene. Of course, it depends onyour intent, but overall the emotion of the characters body language comes through nicely.
Well, after reading the comment earlier on Chip not hugging him back, that got me thinking towards another direction. Upon looking at the picture again with this idea, the picture is of a situation that happens all to often. The fact that the arms (hands) are not seen, enable for it to be a generic idea and not a specific instance. To me it basically represents loss. In Chips hands could be baggage for him to to to college, could be a baby carrier, baggage for him to leave for a new job, possibly getting called up to serve in the armed forces, mabe a ring on his finger can not be seen on his hand, or since his hands are not seen, it could be a feeling or idea like his parents not letting him play with Dale again because Dale is different in some way, be it preference, religion, color, or political ideals...any way you put it, it means things will be different from that point on, it spells out loss.
Really sad if you look at it that way :( Nice picture though. Possibly make a happy picture next where Chip changes his mind, dropps the physical/emotional baggage, and hugs Dale Back? :)
