Raven/Strade WIP (Patreon)

I'm slowly working on a pic of these two -rubs chin- I want it to be really good so I'm taking my time on it. I think I'm fairly satisfied with the composition, but I'm not happy with all the anatomy and expression :/

Sketch stage can be a real challenge XD

I'm planning on having it be dark/nighttime, soft purple 'moonlight' over the whole thing, then some sharp object source lighting coming from two tentacle corners [ orange for strade, light blue for raven ]

I'm also wondering if I've got the right amount of armour on them... maybe I should just keep it all cloth, or put the weapons on too. HO HUM.
