Kiss and Forget

"Kiss" was the next theme in my February drawing challenge and while this one from Oblivio may have been a bit of a middle finger to the audience (okay... maybe a BIG middle finger) I still consider this their first real kiss (well, realer that the one in Dark Cupid at least) even if it WAS "erased" immediately after.

As for the sketch.... once again, this one needed a LOT of saving. Mostly (again) the hair and faces because (again) I SUCK at drawing characters in profile. Luckily I was (again) able to salvage a lot of that using a couple previous drawings. Parts of Cat Noir's costume also had to be remapped because of the loss of detail in my printed reference thanks to all the black (mostly the belt) along with Ladybug's.... right arm (the one holding the kettle) and the tea kettle itself. The hands were traced in because I wasn't happy with my attempt as well as Alya's hands and phone as a last minute afterthought to make the exact scene a little more identifiable.
