I can't believe that in many romantic movies, the protagonists have zero chemistry and there is no longing in the actors' eyes. Yet, in a movie about an exorcism, the characters of a nun and a priest have all that sexual tension and chemistry.
I mean, when she touches his hand and in that scene in the church, I was ready for the kiss! So, I demand that someone gives me a romantic comedy starring Ashley Greene and Dan Stevens because I was left wanting to see them kiss.

I just finished my #zbrush class at @gnomon_school , and I’m so excited about my final that I had to share it. This is my Damascus Goat-inspired Witch of the Woods! Many thanks to @jamesschauf for guiding us all through our projects! I’m hoping to try poly painting her and tweaking some stuff, but I’m also very excited to move on to the next project! #gnomon #digitalsculpting #damascusgoat #goat #concept #art #digital #sculpt #creepy #darkart #theritual https://www.instagram.com/p/ByzDuOggGyz/?igshid=nacq6we8kut9
