This is delightful! I love the coloring, the clutter in the foreground, and most of all their faces! Well done.

Oh my goodness, I love this! Just... femme!Crowley and a corset, and the art is so lovely, oh my! Everything about this picture makes me smile. :)

this is quite awesome! I love it. Pretty kinky, too -- it's all in Crowley's face!

Oh my...

Ooooooooh, that's such a lushly textured picture! The colours are so velvety and I have to love Madamoiselle Crowley's expression, she's having so much fun. :D

What lively but so adept brushwork! And the muted palette is lush and velvety--heh, even SMELLS late 18th--early Victorian.

The foreground objects nicely hint both at their location, inevitably, Aziraphale's back room in the book shop, to their preoccupation, all those empty bottles. They're just drunk enough for Crowley to have talked the poor probably pudgy angel into trying on his latest invention. While 'Zirpa's sobering all too suddenly, Crowley's so utterly gleeful.

The little touch of skipping the dark slit pupil for an overall darker yellow to make the bright yellow stroke pop, really makes his eyes virtually glitter! His curling smile reminds me of the Grinch's in the cartoon about the time he gets his "awful" idea.

The foreground busyness makes a nice dark frame for the relative open area of the action with just a hint of peeling wallpaper pattern in the background.

This is a very pretty picture! Nice work!

Oh, the expressions! Fantastic!

So.

This is completely and utterly my personal canon as to how femme!Crowley looks and his association with corsets in general. The tones and small splash of color...guh. The style, the detail on Crowley's dress, the RED BOWTIE (which is oddly striking)...

It's really, really pretty.

Thank you so much.

Male corsets, huh? That explains a few portraits.

Wow... I think I just had an art-induced ecstasy there. I love how the thickness of strokes are used, the colours and... heck, all of it! *eat*

I'm so glad that you like it!<3

Indeed, male corsets explain so much about some pictures.

Baw you are making me blush. Thank you!<3

p.s. I love your icon. It is adorable.

Goodness, but this is beautiful. I love the precision with which Crowley and Aziraphale are rendered in the softer setting of the back room. And Crowley's grin, oh, yes.

Oh hello, incredibly late here, I'm finally getting round to going through and commenting on everything.

I think like others have already mentioned it is the texture and painterly style that make this piece so interesting. Is it all digital or do you start with a physical sketch (on paper I mean)?
