Went in and Dodged/Burned a ton of areas, in order to add emphasis on the darks and lights, seeing how many people were having a hard time looking at this and figuring out what it was. Hopefully, that won't be a problem anymore.
Oh, man... this is, undoubtedly, one of my most difficult and tedious, yet most rewarding, drawings that I have done in a loooooooong time.
Well, this is one BIG battle of epic proportions. It is another one of my usual My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and Nintendo crossovers, featuring Mario and Twilight Sparkle facing off against Giga Bowser and a monstrously constructed Discord. I normally would've stopped at the characters, but I was persuaded into implementing a background by fellow peers of mine, and I'm very glad I listened.
