Ooh so glad you noticed all the little details for the stars and shines on the clothes!! :)

Have you guys noticed that Neo's scar emits a soft pinkish light?

It's because her ability is activated by her feelings... She's feeling a deep LOVE! What's going to happen then? :0

:3 also realized the scar-
i have a oc who has something like that going on-but it's a birthmark- -^w^- it's one of my favorite things about them, exept- they try to cover it up so no one sees it

that's pretty neat- what cases this phenomenon(the glowing scar)?? and do any of the other characters ever take note of it??

Yes!
The way you drew the sparkles on her dress really made it look like it had glitter on it! :0 ^v^

And aw, that's so cool! :0

Oh, you colored it! I'm in awe. I wish I could do backgrounds like this. Your characters are too cute. <3

The glowing scar is a very interesting idea. Where did she get that scar, if you don't mind me asking? (Or is that spoilers for your comic?)

I tagged a lot of friends on here because some of you asked about Neo's scar and that pink glow :)
Hope this explanation is clear!!!

It is usually caused by extreme feelings that happen inside Neo (fear, hate, love, sadness...) The stronger the feeling, the stronger the power!

Neo got her scar when she was attacked by Lowell ( #lowellsheydet) on her way home from the police station. Lowell inflicted Neo with deep mortal wounds, but she REFUSED TO DIE: A mysterious light from her pocket watch enveloped her body, and with a burning feeling she woke up! In exchange for returning, Neo would remember nothing of her former life...

So Neo is brought into the police detective unit with a new team (Eric, Katt and Jack) and investigates her past while trying to stop the killer who haunts Somber City.

Neo doesn't know that she has powers, until one day, when she is about to lose one of her partners, (Eric, who is very close to her)
It is then that Neo, thinking Eric is gone forever, with bitter tears of grief, awakes the power within her! Her scar starts glowing with an aura of life!!!

"Turn back time AND SNATCH FROM DEATH WHAT STILL BELONGS TO LIFE!"

After these words, Neo manages to bring Eric back to life!
What happened!? What was that!??? Everyone is surprised and shocked!!

Neo has many more things to do yet!!!

YES. Are they like dancing?? I LOVE DANCE SCENES AND LIKE, love. Oh I love it when couples or members of a ship do some ball room dance. *chefs kiss* Mabey its because I've taken brief dance classes, the elderly couples and single people are always so sweet and madly in love, i think theres a reason for that you know?
I've been working on a project (a drawing on here) of two of my characters dancing to 'dance with me' by Michael Bulton. one of my favorite dances is the cha cha i believe. :duck

Every time I see this painting, it truly reminds me just how much time and effort and love you've put into these OCs. They're more than just a cute couple: they have violent, awkward beginnngs, betrayal, heartbreak, and (most importantly) love for each other, whether that's Neo and Eric's cuteness, Jack and Katt's hilarious friendship or Aiden and the little girl's bond.
Basically what I'm saying is: TAKE ALL MY SUPERLIKES, YOU'VE EARNED THEM AND MORE <3

@LeonardBirdstein
LENNY BUT— BUT OH MY GOSH, WHAT IS ALL THIS???

You’re honestly the sweetest person, my friend, you’re a ray of sunshine, pure kindness, a beam of light AAAAAA,,,,

It’s been a couple of years since I first uploaded this drawing and my style has changed so much since then (maybe I should redraw it in my current style and fix all the little mistakes I see now).

There is a thought that has been haunting me the last months... Its the fact that I have less and less time to write the novel and work on the sprites, and sometimes I’m scared that I’ll never actually bring my project to life. It’s a fear that’s always there in the back of my mind, and it hurts my heart a lot.

But then you show up with your genuine support and willpower... you light up my path again and put me back on track!!! <3

@LeonardBirdstein

And you are so right!

These aren’t just silly characters to me; they’re personifications of deep feelings like loneliness, loyalty, defeat, justice… they mean so much to me because they were born in very difficult moments of my life and come from real experiences and memories.

It makes me so happy that you see all that history and emotion behind them — that’s exactly what I hope people feel when they look at my art. They’ve grown with me through every sketch, every rewrite, every late night of doubt and excitement, so hearing this means the world.

Thank you so, so much for the superlikes and the love!! You have no idea how much that motivates me to keep creating!!! :) <3<3<3

From the bottom of my heart, you’re the best person I’ve met on this gallery in a long time. Your presence alone is already a motivation for me to keep trying every single day.

Thank you for your endless kindness and support, I really mean it!

LeonardBirdstein

I'm just so glad to be your friend, and to get to see and be a part of your frankly incredible creations is nothing short of a huge honour. You're such a wonderful, kind person, and if I can give back even a tiny bit of what you've done for me then I'll be happy <3

I totally know that fear though - I haven't drawn properly in well over a month, and am pretty unmotivated - but if I can help you to feel inspired and support you through everything that's amazing ^w^

You and your OCs have such a special place in my heart, and it genuinely makes me so happy to know that I can enjoy them and inspire you. Thank you for being my friend; here's to future creativity and friendship ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
