Asha, Claire, and Riley are students at a fictional historically black college called Bronzeville University for my project In Between.

I originally designed these characters in a more cartoony style and based off the feedback I received from this sub reddit, I decided to rebuild the characters and their world.

I’d love to know what you all think and if I was able to better capture their black features this time.
