The begginning of 2017 I decided I wanted to learn how to render. Or at the very least, attempt to learn to render. I've gotten a lot of help from other great artists such as Vonny, Huri, Neko and a bunch of other peeps I shoot the shit with regularly. Thanks you guys. I've learned a lot! I didn't know the first thing of rendering when I started this year, and I'd like to think I've made some nice strides! But the journey continues! I want to put an bigger emphasis on backgrounds and rendering in 2k18.

I spent a lot of time and effort on this piece. And I've applied everything I've learned over the year into this. And I honestly believe it's shaped up to be my best work so far.

When I compare it to a rendered pieces I've drawn last year, or early this year, the difference is apparent. I can't thank everyone enough. Including all of you for reading this and supporting me. Y'all the real MVPs.

For example:

Anyhow, this is also the first piece I've drawn on my new tablet. And I can safely say the tablet definitely makes my life a fuck load easier. The strokes are smoother, my work flow is faster, and I spend less time trying to shape up lines and dictate where they go. But it's fantastic. And I love it.

Feeling blessed. Thank you all again.

Stay based.
