Description
Finally finished this. Ended up taking about a week longer than I expected since I got bogged down in the details (as always happens) but I'm pretty happy with the pic overall.Those kids were a pain and I'm still not totally happy with them, but there ain't no way I'm going back over them after spending literally all of yesterday just painting their faces and hair and arms.
My whole body is aching from being hunched over the drawing table. I feel like a wreck. I'm going to go take a hot bath and hit the gym to remind myself that the human body is actually meant to move around occasionally...
Even typing up this description is making my right hand seize up, so I'll wrap this up, and just say, Enjoy!

Thank you. Those were actually some of the easier parts of this image to paint. What really killed me were the kids in the foreground.
