I gave this 8, but should have given it 9 I'd say. Your facial expression is Mona Lisa-esque: are you smiling or whining :-)
Great image!

A portrait of a moment, a feeling, a friendship

I'm hanging this in my fantasy art gallery.

Love the dynamic between the two. Also really like the high contrast look of the shot. Makes all the textures and characters' faces pop.
