Oh my god, so I need to force myself to stop working on this and upload it already. Or I would continue picking at it for an eternity. I have been picking at this bit by bit for gosh, at least a month now? x___x And never felt completely done but seriously it needs to stop now, heh. ._. Don't even ask how many hours are behind this because I'm embarrassed to even give a rough estimate hahaha, I really need to figure out a more efficient way to do full pieces because this level of time-consumption aint workin out so well for me XD

Anyway, this is a commission for p9iko0 of his snow leopard sensei Master Peninei. It was fun getting to do a Japanese/Zen-esque background!
