LunaKage requested the most amazing art possible for his 200th video and I owed him one for his second CV, since Error ended up being a rough work. I also didn't know if I could even top NV: Sky or N/L All-Out Attack! On top of that, I was in an artist block.
But I didn't want to just sit and wait, like what happened with Error and All-Out Attack, so the night I got a request, I drew the first sketch. It all went from there. I even managed to finish this within a week, one of the fastest I've done a work to this detail.
I'm really proud of how this turned out. Tried something new, with the light source coming from the back. Didn't know how lighting should work but I tested it. So much small details here and there too. I probably have so much more to say but can't remember how to.
Hope you enjoy this piece as much as I did. I don't know if I will top this anytime soon, but I've said that with a couple of my previous ones, so I'm hopeful.
