Description
Commission of/characters by Thank you for commissioning ( ^ ^ )/See here for motion gif WIP of this illustration airibbon.blogspot.com/2014/07/…
Character Misaki Kimura and Amaya Bellerose from F&W Chaos Inc. on a date at the aquarium. I went to the aquarium in real life to gather inspiration for illustration. Sting ray are ugly... but people always gets excited if they swim nearby. And it wasn't empty like this, the real thing is noisy and crowded that I ran for the exit from claustrophobic. Wheel chair isn't that hard to do since I got a friend that rides that one.

I really don't know, my memory is kinda bad but I suppose people that like your art might post somewhere else to. I don't know if that's ok with you but as long as they don't claim it's theirs, might not be that bad but still they're doing something without permission idk.
Don't hug me, I'm a hugaholic!!!

You you. There was a discount ticket for the entry here, I'm like... meh what the heck. That was why I go to the aquarium and did my own studying. Generally visiting a location is still gathering reference

Very well done! Did you draw the fish or place them in there? I've seen other aquarium art like this and they're all amazing! IMO, it takes a lot of skill to make such scenes due to coloring, lighting, shading, etc. to make it look like what one would expect when visiting an aquarium.
Fav for me!
