Well, awesome work Lunar! I'm really glad to see another artist in the team.
Hope you hang around!  :)

The style is fine, and should fit in with our other work perfect. My
personal opinion is that I had imagined Marcella to seem a bit more innocent
(blue/green girl's eyes etc.) - but that's just my opinion. (And anyway I
can't really afford making such remarks considering I haven't done anything
for ages... ;)
