At long last, I've found two artists that I think has the art style suited for Micchi series. Currently, I commissioned them to do a short, 3-page manga to trial which one I like best before making the final decision.
Here is one of the artists with the storyboard sent to me. I think it's pretty good!
The last two pictures are a WIP touch-up from a previous commission of Kaoru and Anya by Chihiro, the usual artist I go to for comms on this series. I felt their appearances needed a little tweak and returned to Chihiro to give it a makeover. Suffice to say, I'm really liking how both Kaoru and Anya are looking this time around.
I'll continue to provide updates as I slowly work towards a manga for this series. Thanks!
