Lyris and Rethia

This was a contest entry for blizz's contest.
It's of Lyris and Rethia, two characters from her online manga Silvarta (go check it out!).
They're cousins, so I wanted to do a cute picture of the two of them. I really wanted it to make it seem like a nice, family picture. I tried to have their poses reflect their closeness, and I thought it'd be cute if Rethia made a face. X3

I didn't have the time to be able to do a decent lineart, so I tried to reduce the sketchy roughness as much as I could into something more... easier to look at. I just hope this pic looks okay.

Hope you all like it!

p.s. Haha! they're standing in the middle of NOWHERE!
