There are times when I genuinely question my own technical know-how as an artist and last night was one of those times because I tried to do a lighting thumbnail like good kids should and then I got too attached to it and the next thing I knew I was painting this whole damn thing on a single layer at four in the morning and seeing directly into the fabric of space and time.

Pictured: Trico and the boy sadly watching a tasty barrel float out of view. It's probably only doing that because Trico batted it there instead of eating it.

Prints of this will be sold at Anime Boston next week!
