A continuation on a piece with a personal theme, but I thought it could fit into my gallery here.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it, and feel free to use it as a background.(I just wish I could submit a higher resolution!) Even if it has its own personal meaning to me, I always find it nice when people can take their own meanings and enjoyment from something I've made :)
Man 1k watches, yeah I would probably go full nuke mode every once and a while too lol!
Also you would be right about the technique~ pretty much all my stuff, is at least 98% adobe illustrator vector based (this peice is all vector). Basically I do almost all my colors in illustrator, and usually my shadows/glowy effects there too. The biggest reason I use PS is because the blur tool in AI uses a lot of processor when you get into super huge amounts of objects like my detail pieces, so I'll just do any really soft shadows/glows in PS so I don't kill my comp. That and when my images get kinda detail heavy I sometimes have to split the objects in two files and compile them in PS. Occasionally I'll add texture in PS, and I do have one or two pieces that were more painted in PS then done in AI, but I don't have a pressure sensitive tablet so they always look funky lol. I highly respect people who get beautiful smooth color in PS, definitely outside my current skill range! (sorry to ramble, hope that answers your question!) :D

no worries about rambling, this is an awesome answer! Wow this is completely different from how I work, I wish I knew Illustrator well enough to even imagine how you do this hahah, I'm a Photoshop and Flash nerd. I've never seen someone use Illustrator quite like this, I admit, I'm very jealous. I'm inspired to try it out again now :P
You should totally take it up again, its not too bad once you get used to it, I feel like its just more about figuring out how to get flat pieces of color to make a texture, or shadow. My general rule is use a darker version of the color you want as the base, and slowly layer lighter colors with more and more opacity over it until you get the color and lines that look good for you. I think a lot of people paint this way too, at least that's what it looks like to me sometimes. Anyway you have no reason to be jealous, your paintings are amazing- i totally admire your color and lighting- plus your turnover time with the amount of detail you use seems to be incredibly fast. I wish I was more diligent about commenting/faving things I like~ and I need to make an account not associated with this name so I can fav adult stuff too. (this is what i get for using this username when its also my personal email : / )
Makes sense. I'll try opening it again haha :D Aw, thank you, believe me, my technique is somewhat lazy, I've spent a lot of time figuring out how to speed things up hahahah, it doesn't look like your work does that at all, you don't take shortcuts like I do (at least not from what I can see), I'm STILL jealous :P
YEAHhhhh I have this name for furry/adult stuff, my real gallery is semi-secret/separate, it's where I keep my non-porn! XD
