Finished square editorial illustration of two fictional friends balancing on one comically broad seesaw, viewed side-on. Place the nearly horizontal cream board across the lower half, on a simple triangular fulcrum. At left, a lanky friend with an elongated torso sits with knees tucked up; at right, a broad, squat friend sits with short legs dangling. They turn their minimal faces toward each other, smiling. Simple mitten-like hands rest on the board. Warm pale-terracotta background, cream and muted terracotta clothing, darker terracotta contours. Off-frame moonlight catches upper edges in cream and casts one soft ground shadow. Engraving-inspired stipple drawing simplified into sparse clusters of large irregular marker dots, loose felt-tip contours and broad colour fills; no intricate hatching or fine detail. Clear silhouettes at thumbnail size, generous empty space above, no surrounding playground equipment. No text, logos or watermarks.
