And now I'm working on something with a lot less color change between details.  I just realized I'm working with less than half the layers I was before. It's...it's like...an artistic orgasm (please note, that does not imply a REAL orgasm; that would just be awkward).  It's so easy, but so rewarding.  So much awesome for so little effort.  Coloring in the lines never felt so good.  I just thought I'd share my happiness with y'all.
