Let it be known my shame on this picture, for how rushed and minimal it is.

Guhhhh, what is that title, even?
I'm fighting everything in me to not put this in the scraps, because it is a mark of shame- not because of the subject matter or individual, but because of how incredibly delayed production was. This here, this is why you don't come to me for time-sensitive gifts/requests; I'm just not good with deadlines- and boy howdy did this thing fall through numerous deadlines- especially with my inspiration being about as spotty as a leopard on a polka-dotted canvas- especially at the time this was first requested. Wait.. leopards are more known for their rosettes. Bleh, a cheetah on a polka-dotted canvas, then.

Normally, I'd make some kind of effort to make things like.. super-accurate. For this one, I really wasn't feeling all that inspired, so.. if'n you want details on what's supposed to be on the diploma, go here. S'got all you'd need, honestly.

Sorry, I'm more full of jokes and siliness in general, but the process of making this was surprisingly stressful; coming from trying to find inspiration for it, and constantly worrying about the little things. Sure, the outfit itself is.. relatively simple, but the medals and stripes.. I know better than to simply disregard those. They're pretty important to folks, so I was walking on eggshells while working on the little things. _{Beginning to think that drawings based on the real world organizations/militaries aren't my cup of tea. Too many things to worry about getting right}.

_{Personally, I think Artik would be better suited to this piece, but hey, I'm not the requester. S'all good.}

Oh also, congratulations and such! _{Nothing quite as awkward as being dragged into commenting on something so late, and coming in with nothing truly original to say. I'm just the worst}
