This is now one of my favorite things, and I'll tell you why. You use of colors, both the variety and combos, are gorgeous💕 The way you express emotions simplistically, not needing too many details to know what the characters are feeling, how you convey to the viewer what's happening without and verbal dialog, your "simplistic" art style, that you can actually see the sketch lines, rather than being "clear-cut", your backgrounds, the different atmospheres, the multitude and various creatures present, their designs and the difference color choices and combos, the score, the lighting, etc. And that's only a short list of the things that caught my attention and made me love this. I seriously can't even imagine all the hard work, effort and dedication that went into making this. I'm seriously so proud of you💞 Excited to see what other treasures you have in store for the future😊
