Guys, I spent 12 hours straight on this, and she is finally here! Although I dragged it out for a long time, I never had the right mood to paint it.

Fun fact: this adopt was supposed to have a completely different vibe and aesthetic initially. If you look at the early drafts , it was giving edgy blood drips on a plain grey background. But at the very last second, my brain went: «Wait, let's completely scratch that and make her look absolutely... pupupu.»

So I changed the whole direction, added an atmospheric traditional Japanese shoji window vibe, made a gorgeous night-to-sunset gradient, and framed it with moody fern silhouettes. And now we have a full including a full-body reference, a cute chibi version, and a round bat mascot! I'm damn glad I finished it ^^
