Aiko won the last poll (thanks for voting for her ❤), and I thought immediately about this old sketch for what was intended to be an ingame CG.
I didn't expect Aiko's mom to take the spotlight as much as she did, but I guess it's to be expected. I might've made her too strong.
It's fun to see the family (sans dad, sorry dad) together. Even though Miyu's kinda just photobombing the pic. It kinda counts. Cute happy family. :3
The lighting here took me ages. My arch-nemesis, indoor-facing-a-window summer lighting is very hard to capture well. Every time I do one I understand it a little better, but it's still challenging. One step at a time.
Enjoy. ❤
