Description The duo is complete! I kept the bottle shape the same as the potions are supposed to be a pair. Chat Noir's magic is, as I expected, also quite tricky to draw with a liquid. Translating it from 3D to a 2D drawing is kind of hard. And the black particles usually don't seem to have depth, but to make liquid look like liquid you need that depth and transparency.

I first planned on the liquid and the electricity being the only points of light. But I realized that I needed a second light source so I could have the top of the potion properly visible. The bell also gave me quite some trouble considering the metal is supposed to be highly reflective. But there wasn't really any actual environment for it to reflect. 

In any case I hope you guys enjoy this potion. If you have any suggestions for future potions let me know. ^^ 
And as always It'd love to hear what effects you guys think this potion would have.

Thank you. Chat noir has quite a powerful attack so it fits. ^^

Yaaay electricity! You draw it pretty well too, nice and glowy. Only criticism is that they seem to have pretty weird origins... mainly the one that looks like its coming out of a dot XD
I also like the bell. Its shiny and i like how the different light sources affects it. Lastly the liquid itself, it looks nice and thick. Oh oh, and the hexagon pattern on the collar, I almost missed that! Again really cool how it reacts to light, being more visible in the dark.

Guess you still got your electricity after all didn't you? xD

Yea the lighting doesn't really have a logical origin. The one that looks like it's coming out of the dot is actually supposed to sort of start behind it.
The bell was actually a bit of a struggle. Especially the reflections. I didn't want it to be too reflective. (Because there was no actual background for it to reflect.) But I didn't want it to be dim either.

The liquid isn't my best liquid ever. But I kept it simple on purpose because of all the other things going on. Still it doesn't have as much depth as I would've liked it to have.
But I'm glad to hear you still like it.

^^ It's also lovely that you noticed the hexagon pattern. I didn't want it to be too distracting. Yet still wanted it to be easily visible.

Nice work, Luna. As usual, I will compliment you on something that's not the focus at all, but I love how you've done the cork. Having not seen the original (3D), I'm not sure what it's supposed to be exactly, but it looks great. To me the dark spots look like holes - like some kind of mini-void in space.

Thank you. ^^
Actually I put a lot of extra thought into the cork of this one because in the prior one someone told me that the cork looked quite flat.
So I'm quite happy you think it looks good.

And I'm glad to hear you think it looks great. The black spots in the original also look a bit like black holes. They're very flat in a 3D environment so I tried to balance that whilst still making everything have depth.
