Onja and Mijoro enjoy a moment on the road leading to their home.

Well. Two changes I’ve made to these characters for this picture.

The first change was giving them hair, because I’m afraid of having them mistaken for Tsimilefy and Fehizoro despite the different fur colors and the different settings. Quoting a Tumblr post I saw today: “I have same-face syndrome when I’m drawing different characters, and different-face syndrome when trying to draw the same character. Why?”

The second change was giving them a fixed home: a small countryside cabin that belongs to my father IRL. It’s perfect for them. Out of the way, but not too much. Just the right size for a couple that doesn’t need much extra space. Aaaand I can visit it relatively and take photos for reference! That is, in fact, how I created the background here: it’s a processed version of a photo I personally took in August 2018. You’ll notice the cabin peeking from behind the guava plant in the middle of the picture. That is also how this drawing was title: this scene is set in Ankadiefajoro>, which is the place’s name IRL.

Anyway. Smoochies!
