Description The idea came to me immediately after reading DeskRage's fanfiction, Stare Into the Sun ([link] ). The whole thing is a little "behind the scenes" of what happened in the immediate aftermath of Beelzemon's attempt to save Jeri and the Tamer's retreat after the Mother Reaper's appearance. There's a scene in the work where Impmon and Renamon talk seriously (title comes from some of the dialogue), and this image sprang into my head.

I was like, hey, this would be great perspective practice!! And lighting! Because like pretty much everything else, Watchowl has has little practice drawing it. It took FOREVER. I mean, this is a pretty simple image, but it took a long time to get the perspective right, and I know the lightning and texture is a bit wonky. But it was great practice for I guess what you'd call "framing a shot", and despite it's myriad flaws I am happy with it for the most part.

This whole segment with Renamon caring for Impmon's safety in the season really brings confident plot, this friendship between really gives in the bond like sister and brother.

It's super easy to just search for a perspective grid and plop that in Photoshop to get perspective easily. Put it as a bottom layer.

I really like the lamp! )

I'd push Renamon's "darkness" even more to emphasis her being in the foreground.

Your colors are working well together. It feels very warm.. great job ash! Keep it uppp
