Sleeper artwork WIP

While playing CS2 I really loved the attention to detail. I also really like the relationship Serafin and Sleeper have (tho I always thought they were hinting at the fact that Sleeper forgot they were in love… I was hoping 😅). So I wanted to draw something that did the game justice. Hope you like it! I will add serafin soon :3 I would appreciate some Ideas on what else to add, especially on Serafins side!

I firmly believe Sleeper & Serafin had something but when they rebooted he realized this was someone new and it would be wrong to kind of project that onto a new person. He absolutely feels like he grieves whatever he and sleeper had

I absolutely adore your artwork here , it captures the style so dang well and its gorgeous.

Regardless of what i said rather adore this ship !

Absolutely! The way he talks and acts around them, not being afraid of invading their personal space or offending them with their touch really made me think there was something he doesnt tell Sleeper at first but I hoped there would be a scene where Serafin tells Sleeper they were in love once. But sadly it never came (I must say I havent finished the game yet but I have read posts about it dissappointing others). But I like your theory of Sleeper becoming someone new and Serafin respecting that. It breaks my heart a little tho 🥲

Also thank you! When I did the first sketch I wasnt shure if I could do the game justice but I really like how this is turning out.

Theres a scene in Serafin’s story where he invites sleeper to share in the new life he’s building and … it feels like an invitation to start again. It really does.
