Even when the entire world is against you...
Even when all your friends have forsaken you...
Even when it's all lose-lose for you...
Even when it's certain you will die...

Never... EVER... surrender, between oblivion and eternal life... there are countless battles and a very long war to be fought.

As for the technical aspects, I worked harder on my oil shading, and also drew some discrete battle injuries, wounds less visible than others I've done more "fleshy"... also exploring colores, shading...and the kind of clothes that MUST be on my wardrobe soon.
