I just wanted to add some things about the process since this whole piece took me ~40 hours (over 2 weeks).

The first image is a rough draft of what I wanted the overall piece to look like.

The second image is my process, from sketching to lineart to flat colours to rendering.

I first started this piece one day after the anniversary, hoping to complete it within a few days. This obviously isn't the case because I am two weeks late to the anni :') I lost motivation when rendering, so it took a lot of effort for me to finish this piece.

This piece was definitely a challenge and a step outside of my comfort zone but I'm glad that I completed it in the end :]

Happy (belated) 8th anniversary Trio of Towns!
