okay krita tried to kill me at the end of this drawing process (the file is HUGE)

this is actually a redraw of an older piece, too! i drew the og last year at around this time :D

and i've still got one more to do, and my brain will not accept not doing it (yippee)

save meeeee

i got distracted and tried to finish today's drawing

but my body says no more

here's a preview tho (the flats aren't even fully done yet lol)

i have ideas for tomorrow and the day after but yeesh yesterday and today were "low energy and don't have the energy to think too much about this particular prompt" days

anyhow have an aurora borealis colored couple

i am so done with rendering this, i don't have the patience i had yesterday to sit there and add twenty bazillion things like i normally do-

it's technically past midnight here... eh, whatever

i had to mess with layer styles and stuff but it looks at least decent, though i can't tell if i'm stopping because i think it looks good or if i've just given up on finagling with this any further-

my internet decided to peace out on my whole family for a bit, so i'm gonna post this in case it decides to run away from us again-

OKAY

i'm gonna be doing this like i did with rocktober/probably would've done for the normal xzero week (i.e. 1 piece per day)

except i'm shooting myself in the foot with fully rendered pieces while juggling school :D

anyhow here's the first of seven
