A week or two ago, a friend of mine sent me a comment on TikTok on a video of the 2024 Olympics showing a dance routine with both a hip hop dancer and a ballet dancer. The comment said "Pearl and Amethyst" and I thought "omg I need to draw this" and so I did.
This drawing stayed as a sketch for a few days since I was intimidated by giving it cleaner lineart but eventually I got around to it (today) and finished it up. I'm very pleased with how the proportions turned out, giving the characters slightly more realistic proportions. I also thought it was really cool to finally see Amethyst and Pearl dress in ways that embody the types of dance that they're drawn to. I didn't expect to make this as colorful or dramatic as I did, but it just kinda veered that way and I'm okay with that. I wonder what Opal would look like with a fusion of these outfits haha. Maybe I'll draw that at some point.
