Illustrator Fun, Part 9,481

Holy cow, I’m almost too embarrassed to admit this project took me about 20 hours. Almost.

(I had a lot of trouble with the manteling. As in, I could NOT decide how to deal with the shaded spots)

(Seriously. It was a mess. The above? Was me giving up and saying, screw it, good enough.)

(And then, this next one? This is me saying, fuck it, FINE, I’ll spend five hours scouring the internet for free clip art and then ANOTHER FIVE redrawing and vectorizing it, BECAUSE HOLY HELL, I’M AN ADAMS. I CAN’T LIVE WITH HALF-ASSED MANTELING.)

Update: Dear Blogdesk image uploader POS, if I’m willing to spend ten hours just on foofy background flourishes because the mere suggestion of second-rate work makes my left eye twitch uncontrolably…what makes you think I’m ok with you squashing my gif?! Let’s try that one again, thanks.)
