What if...? LuffyxAce

OH MOTHER OF SWEET CHEZUS CHRIST!
I finally finished it //shot

This is my entry for the contest in
The theme is "What if..?"
"Drawing a "What if" scenario including at least one of the brothers, for example: What if Ace's parents didn't die? What would his life be like?"

My idea here is: What if everything had gone a bit differently?, what if by mistake luffy ate the mera-mera no mi insted of the gomu one?
What if shanks gave his straw hat to ace instead of luffy?
what if luffy is about to die and ace has to go to rescue him

Hope you like the idea, and the picture, this one took me several hourse really
I know I suck bight time at poses
and with proportions
and with backgrounds
_{BTW, the tatoo in luffy's arm has a mistake just like ace's
The first letter is suppossed to be an "R"}
