Two years ago I finished the previous version of this picture and I was extremely proud of it.

Today I've finished the redraw of it and I feel even more proud and accomplished.

This is the previous version of the picture, and whereas it hasn't dated well, I do still feel that it's an important part of my progression. Some have voiced dislike of the background, especially the water, but I am proud of it - for being something I actually drew this time, instead of made through filter effects. Similarly, the scene from the previous picture was kept, just with an updated perspective and artistic touch.
I'm a mere 6 pictures from my 400th deviation, and I want to thank all of you for joining me on this journey - that is by all means still only just beginning.

I can understand that this picture isn't perfect, and I could have improved on it further, but I would ask any and all to refrain from constructive criticism - I simply wish to enjoy my own work.
