The idea of one character sharing his or her clothing with another that they love to keep them warm has been done before, but what kind of differentiates this image from others is the emotion that both Discord and Fluttershy project. Just observe the way their eyebrows are raised and their pupils are shrunk. They look incredibly surprised how close they are to each other, despite not being actual lovers. It makes the chemistry between them feel more intimate and more precious. On top of that, I feel that this illustration has a great sense of atmosphere in terms of weather. Pay attention to the amount of water dripping off of them, and how the sky has been colored grey. They genially indicate that the atmosphere is wet and soggy. You really make the outdoors feel like it’s going through the autumn season. Funny how the weather is cold, yet the attraction between our two subjects is heating up! If I had one complaint, it’s that I would like to see both characters more in the center of the piece. But aside from that, this piece is great! Due to it’s good attention to detail, careful coloring, and it brilliant sense of atmosphere, both intimately and naturally, it’s one of the best Fluttercord drawings I’ve seen in quite some time. Keep up the fantastic work, LolaDitz!
