[ID: A coloured sketch of Maya and Mia holding hands. They face forwards but in slightly different directions, like they are preparing to walk separate paths. Maya looks forward, and Mia looks slightly to the right, and the wind in her hair suggests that she is moving away towards that direction, out of the frame, while Maya is stationary. Maya is drawn in pen and coloured in with colour pencils, giving her a vibrant sunset look, with her purple clothes and red ribbon. Mia is drawn with pencil and lightly shaded with colour pencils, giving her a washed out look as she fades away the further she gets from Maya. Her hair and scarf billow in the breeze, and her suit is dark with a blueish hue. Her yellow scarf drapes across Maya’s shoulders. End ID.]
progress pictures and crying
[ID: Progress pictures of the drawing in the original post. It starts off as a lightly coloured sketch, then a zoomed in progress picture of Maya’s clothes gaining more colour, and the last picture looks similar to the final work but Mia has not been fully coloured yet. End ID.]
also the reviews are in lol msjwjavab there’s a lot of crying huge mood btw, the moment I saw that quote I wanted to cry too and the general theme of t&t’s last trial (the hazakura temple one) of ghosts staying around forever !!!! she will always be by her family’s side !!! even though their paths diverged, even though she’s dead, they can still see each other and she will always !! protect her !!! (head in hands, sobbing). so like that’s kinda the meaning of the scarf over her shoulders yeah. always with her even after she’s gone
also the aa character ref sheet got me cryin
[ID: Character sheets for Maya and Mia, presumably from the anime adaptation of Ace Attorney. They have three poses each; front, side, and back, from left to right. It is in colour, and their colours appear as colour blocks between poses. End ID.]
in the rightmost pose for both of them, Maya’s reaching to her right and Mia’s reaching to her left the moment I saw this I knew, definitely, 100%, what I was gonna draw lol

We drew linearts of our favourite ace attorney characters and then colored them. So they drew Gregory and I’ve colored it, and vice versa you get the drill.
Check their art tho if you didn’t before they are amazing
In the past few weeks I’ve gone back to idly thinking about AA when I’m working/bored, and I’ve just… realized how little I care about the original trilogy?
As in, I never think about anything deeper than my experiences playing it and the surface level plot. With AJAA, DD, and SoJ, I’m thinking about AUs, how characters interact outside of what’s shown in-game, tweaks to make the story better, etc etc…
Now, I don’t hate the trilogy- I mean, if you want to play a single AA game (counting DGS/DGS2 as two) I’d still suggest the first game, and I consider said game as one of my top favorites, but it just… doesn’t live in my head rent-free like the “second trilogy” does
