"Care to join us on deck, Mr. Takarada?"

Hoooooh man, it's been way too long since I did a Spring Break pic with my characters, let alone a full finished drawing.
I've actually started writing some stuff recently for a Creative Writing class I'm currently taking related to the "Eternal Legion" story (Formerly known as Legion of Eternity) that's a lot more modernized and with more of a focus on being over-the-top fun instead of taking it as seriously as I had originally intended when I came up with it well over a decade ago.
Longtime followers of mine will recognize these two as Celeste and Claire Lasade. Celeste was formerly named 'Celestia' but I'm changing the name to avoid confusion with a certain character from a certain show about horses...(cough) Also I added an 'e' to the end of Claire's name because just leaving it as 'Clair' felt weird to me.
Also the main character's name, Ryu-Gi (which is where I derived my username from) is also going to be changed; his name is now 'Ryuji Takarada".

Now for technical stuffs. I do feel that some of the anatomy is slightly off; I was using posed models in Garry's Mod as reference and I realize I probably didn't capture them correctly, possibly due to me stylizing the character's bodies to my liking. I'll take that into consideration for a future drawing.
Also Celeste's hand GAAAAH.
The background is from a screenshot I took in Garry's Mod. The map is "Tropical Fever". steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles…
I hid some watermarks in the picture.
If you're wondering why Lasade's swimsuit has belts and fishnets...I've always drawn it like that. I happen to like that sort of look. Don't overthink it.

Here's to hoping this is the start of me getting back into drawing more often!

Interesting picture, an interesting update of these characters, I remember when you first designed them. Really neat swimsuit designs too.
