My heart's aflutter. This is amazing: the colours and patterns on both of their jackets, their legs sliding off into darkness, the sketched city behind them. I have a strange love for Arthur's purple tie, too. (Hopefully I'm right in assuming that D is on the right.../o\) My first reaction before reading who it was for was "oh, twins!" so I'd say you pulled that bit off marvellously, as well.
I am super enjoying the clothes, especially the pants. I love how you always do rosiness on noses and cheeks and I'm really digging the color pop from the palette with the purple tie.
I like how detailed the twins are and the way that contrasts with the monochromatic background. I'm also kind of mesmerized by their feet and the pattern of Arthur's suit (I'm guessing the one on the left is Arthur). Only he could wear something like that and not look like a sleazy used-car salesman. No wonder his brother's giving him the eye. :)
How do you do these things? You say you have trouble drawing twins, but I think you're fantastic at it. They even manage to look different despite having somewhat similar facial expressions--well, what I mean is that their faces have the same general set to them, but there's such a difference in what's behind the eyes, in the quirk of the mouths, in the postures. And that's them in a nutshell. And there's the same sense of motion that I've always admired in your artwork; the figures look like you've actually caught them mid-motion. There are some artworks I've seen that are exquisitely rendered but static-looking and emotionless; this is exquisite *and* full of life. These characters clearly have lives beyond what's shown on the page, and they make me want to think about those lives. What is Arthur looking at? What is the situation here? What are they feeling
