aaah 🥹❤️ I’m so happy you like the 4th one! It really means a lot to me, because I kept undoing and redoing it the most! I’m also really glad it came across the way I wanted! I even thought about adding a tear running down his cheek, but it felt a bit too dramatic 🥲 thank you so much, L! 🥹❤️🙏🏻

I still need practice, but I’m quite satisfied with the result! 1 and 4 were nightmares 🫠 Also Yashiro’s slicked back hair is surprisingly hard to draw from above! lol I tried. The 3rd one feels the strongest to me. Which one speaks to you the most? 👀✨

Grazie!! 🙏🏻🥹 nel mio piccolo, mi fa molto piacere!

Btw, it’s a dramatic piece. I was going for a cinematic, emotional vibe this time. 🌧️✨
I’d love to add a Japanese line too, since vertical writing always looks so beautiful and elegant to me. To my Japanese pals, is it okay if I do that? I want to be respectful, so I want to ask first.

I really love the idea of Yuri getting very tall and having to fight through that challenge. Since height isn’t always great for figure skating, I picture him practicing like crazy so he doesn’t lose his elegance. And ofc Beka is a supportive bbf 😌 aaah I want to draw more scenes between them!

Thank you very much! It really felt like such a lovely celebration, everyone put so much heart into their works 🥹I’m really glad you enjoyed mine too, it means a lot 🫶🏻
