Some more angsty stuff for you!
Really enjoyed this one, even though I had a few problems with making the ribcage glow. I had a few attempts before I was satisfied - you see, there were multiple things that bothered me:

1. I wanted to make it look like theres a glow inside of Touya, that is shining though his skin between the bones, but gets blocked off by his ribs and not just a glow on his skin.

2. It's anatomically incorrect to have a full ribcage visible like that because of th shoulderlades that would block off some light too. If I did it 100% correctly, it would look really strange and not like a rib cage at all. So I chose the middle ground and made the blades somewhat transparent.

I am aware, that it's not perfect, but I guess for the first time doing something like this quite good! I don't really know what to think about the different light levels, especially the and and face area - tell me what you think!
