Cloud x Aerith (sfw version) (Patreon)

 EDIT!  I did some paintover on this one.    
After I got home from work today I felt unhappy with how the first one I posted looked and felt like a little bit of paintover could improve it.  I am a bit happier with it now.  

I'll leave up the old version for you to see and compare if you want.  I also recorded the process of painting over that I'll include in art pack 33.

Hello!
Here they are!  I have been trying to figure out a good balance between rendered, softness while still being a little rough.  I know there's a lot of contradictions in that, and maybe that's why I'm struggling!  lol  TBH I'm not 100% happy with where I landed, but I figure that I'm still learning and at least trying to push things a little bit.  And I'll be doing more couples art, so there is PLENTY of opportunity to improve!  

Do you think I should do a CloudxTifa?  Or maybe we just skip Cloud and go TifaxAerith.  lol  xD  

I'm thinking of trying out a rendering exercise where I force myself to render the same image (probably just a simple portrait) in a few different ways to learn what I really like.  

Anyhoo!  Rewards for these 2 will be in ART PACK 33, which is coming up very soon!  ahh!

Other News:  In other news I am working on making a proper INDEX for our Patreon.  I feel like patreon isn't very easy to navigate and find what you are looking for, especially on pages like this one that has been going for many years!  So its time to get organized! 

 I'll also be including some links to outside resources that I like, and hopefully it will be helpful for you guys!
