The initial reference image was about two inch by four inch male/female photo illustrating an article in a 2000 Playboy. I would quote what issue but I tore out the pages and did not catalog the issue, stupid me.

I pretty much used an F pencil throughout the whole thing, except for an H2 for S's eyelashes and hair fringe around his face and an H8 for the thin line details of E's hair.

The only cg I did was to the three shirts. I considered putting a wall pattern behind them but then I decided to let the viewer decide exactly where they are, leaning against a wall, standing in the middle of somewhere, lying in bed.

Since the pose reminded me a little of my drawing, "Welcome Home" from last year, I decided to use the same general kind of hair treatment for E for this one. Plus, this drawing seemed to the next step of that story sequence so I called it "Welcome Home 2 - I missed you...", even though I did not use the same pattern fills for the shirts.

And yes, the boys are muscular again. I don't see either of them as girlie, not even S. They are healthy young men with muscular tone and mass.
