You Forgot the Size and Anger (Hi-Res)

This is the hi-res (~3600 px)! See the higher tiers for higher quality.

A painting for Cad_Wing of Twitter! Cad heard there was someone out there talkin' trash. He's here to get them to put up or shut up.

So this one has a fun bit of backstory. Cad came across someone who took his old marking layout as well as wings, and placed them on a normal Mewtwo. I posed in a conversation the silly idea of aping a piece of art the "imposter" got of him slamming open a door, and Cad liked the idea. There is no malice or anger towards them, of course -- simply a fun elbow nudge like, "Heh, we see you, and we also like your idea...! But is it really anger if the structure isn't weaker than you found it?"

Lots of fun study and brush experimenting here. I wound up actually needing to do a second pass over this, though. Discovered some of my brushes change as they are used, mimicking a real brush, and was wasting a lot of time wondering why my edges were soft and my values weren't changing before realizing. Painter continues to ask me not only to paint better, but also to pay more attention to things I wouldn't have even considered to look out for.

Some have been asking when my commissions are looking to open for a few small slots. I'm thinking March 10th or 11th will be what I aim for! I still have a few side projects technically in the queue, so it won't be an entire full open, but for anyone here interested.

Thank you guys, as always. <3
