Incredibly proud of this!

I used {%ai"https://tombofnull.itch.io/stipple-beast-brush-pack"%}TOMBOFNULL's stipple beast brush pack{%endai%}, which I'd been meaning to try out before.

Inspired by one of {%ai"https://kaitty.com/"%}kaitty{%endai%}'s avatars (specifically from their bandcamp), which I thought was really cute.

It first started out as a doodle, referencing their avatar. Although, I wasn't that happy since the colors I used were a bit flat.

I had spent the next 2 days experimenting with the brushes and color mixing, and it started to really stand out as its own piece!
