“It would be a hundred times easier/ If we were young again/But as it is/And it is/ We’re just two slow dancers, last ones out/ We’re two slow dancers, last ones out”-”Two Slow Dancers”, Mitski (2018)From an idea where You and Riko fall out in high school and meet again years later.Elapsed time: 6 hours(click on the images for higher quality!)drafts and notes under the cut:a colored sketch! i don’t color sketches very often, but i made an exception for this as a sorta pitch to the friend who helped me spiral down this idea lmao. the lines are sloppy ofc but partially cleaned up. the colors are very dull because i can’t color theory and i eyeballed them quickly, as opposed to using layer properties or anything like that. my pal confirmed that it was exuding the angst i intended so i went ahead and pushed the idea further!lineart and flat colors+colored lines! i fixed the proportions and finalized the colors. admittedly i didn’t put a huge amount of thought into their outfits and hair, but i think they fit rather well. riko’s wearing an evening tux/her concert wear, and you has a cool fit (and a fun tie, not pictured here uwu). i just,, want a masc youriko and i Will feed myself if i have to god damniti wasn’t even going to render out the bg beyond the people’s silhouettes originally, but the little details add an insane amount of depth wowsa. it’s a sorta generic school gym (hello song opening lol) and i’m not super attached to the design (do gyms in japan look even remotely like this??), but it gets the idea across. anyways! thanks for reading and i hope u enjoyed all this text!! i have a rough idea of a story and doodles to accompany this and no energy to produce it atm. if i ever get to it, it’ll be in an A4 comic format. hopefully i can,, one day.  -- source link
