I like scenes with rainfall b/c I can get really messy with ink washes and spatter and it still looks good.

As the Xenodermae grows and develops alongside its host, it shapes itself according to their needs and personality. The deeper the connection between the Xenodermae and the Xenografted, the more control the host can exert over the shape and function of the living metal. However, some believe that the opposite is also true, and that the alien material may possess an agenda of its own…”
