Gasp- self-sabotage? Turns out this was a purposeful loss? Smh Tsar, how could you reveal the twist so early!

Context:

Again with the older art stuff- this time from august 2022. A picarto banner.

There are two versions of this piece: one with the graffiti/paint-spray bottle and the other without lol.

Also (with their blessing from then) someone else's oc as a cameo.

Thoughts:

Looking back there are stuff I'd have tweaked a tad (ie.the clouds, the disposition of the sea life on the beach, the whale's tail) BUT given the art drough I was crossing at the time (and arguably that I'm not completely out of off, as of 2023) I still love how it came out, especially the whale's render! (just click on the drawing for the real size, Idk why NG resized it like that lol)
