This week's challenge picture. CJ was stupid and pulled U/T's tail, who's now pretty angry at CJ, while Idai laughs about it.
This picture was HELL to color. Not in the detail, it's the problem I had with GIMP WHILE coloring this. 3 freezes, and 2 ragequits (GIMP suddenly closing for no reason). 1 of the ragequits occured while I was saving, and I lost that save because of it. Luckily, I had already saved a copy of it as a jpeg before that happened, but I still lost 1 hour of work compared to the 3 I would have lost. Overall, this should have taken the usual 6 hours. But due to all the freezes and ragequits, this took close to 12 hours.
<_<
Due to the above, I didn't bother shading it at all, to avoid frustration.

Thanks. I asked all three of them for what colors they wanted.
Yutari gave me mostly creative freedom, while the other two told me exactly what they wanted.

I used to have GIMP. It gave me nothing but trouble. What made me get rid of it was the fact that it took, at one point, almost half an hour to open, and then when I finally closed it it reopened on its own.
Paint.net works so much better than GIMP.
As for the picture, it's really cool.

Well I found out the reason why it gave me the trouble shortly before I finished the picture. Turns out the giant version I was using for all the coloring was over 1GB with all the layers. It was a HUGE picture, but I kinda prefer the big ones, since they allow me more room to make mistakes in.
He's lucky.
Pulling my tail, especially while underwater, usually results in much worse.
