There was going to be flames in the BG but I couldn't draw good enough flames and the I realized that the ones I had cluddered up the piece. I was really worried about the lighting and that I wouldn't get it as dramatic as I had in my mind. The text came out pretty good too, I loved playing with the layer settings and the outer glow. All the elements I had intended in the picture did not end up in it cause, the file was gettign to big and slowing down the computer. I wanted to do more to the planet, but when I tried it messed up the border around the text, which I think is cool. It may be too bright of a picture but I've been staring at this screen for several hours now, so everything is bright to me and my eyes hurt. Zim's eyes have pupils but I like ot think of his eyes like a praying mantis' eyes, they're looking at you no matter where you are standing.

Hope you like it. Photoshop CS, probally 5 hours, cuase it could have been 2 to 3 hours tonight and at least an hour for base colors 3 months ago. Maybe an hour for lineart drawing and cleanup.
