This one dates back to May 2011~

Though I am a little bitter that this is actually still an unpaid commission, it's something I really put my heart and soul into, at the time.

"There is a cumulative total over 120 layers. Even after merging it down to a steady 40 or so (everything but the light effects), it would take ages to open/save. Within those layers, I spent well over 30hrs from start to finish. Working in 'binges' at 6-7hrs at a time."

Here's 17 various WIP shots.
