Description
Hopefully looking at this one hasn’t sent you blind, but what better time than a birthday to go crazy with bright colours?
This deviation marks two things:
1) DeviantART’s 8th birthday - what an achievement (This is also an entry for the Vexel gallery’s ‘8 Years - 8 Layers’ competition)
2) My first EVER completed vexel of a human being.

=shebid has heard all about this over the last week or so, but I’ll let the rest of you in on the story as well. To date, I have started a ridiculous number of vexels that have had a person as the main subject. And each time I’d go to do a new one, the frame of mind was always “well I’ve got more willpower this time, maybe I’ll get it done”… and as you can see from my gallery, it’s never happened. Not once. (I guess you could count the mini-portrait on my Introduction deviation, but I’m still not happy with that one )

I finished this one during the day, and let me just say that I’ve knocked myself over; because I’ve finally done it. And I’d like to dedicate this to someone who’s in the heart of the vexel community - Mr `DCZed . Although you’re overseas at the moment D, I hope that when you come back and see this you can finally say “Kell, you’ve done it. Now was it really that hard?!” and have a good laugh. We all miss you heaps D, and we can’t wait to have you back.

The technical stuff:
Colours used:
#FFFFFF & #E21D44 - Main image
#E5018C, #F05023, #5AADC5, #FCE600 & #8967AC - Circles in background
#BFD73B - Green colour used in background gradient

Stock used:
’Holga 01’ by ~zinzigraham-stock

Time spent:
I honestly have no idea, and I’m not too keen on trying to figure it out either

Soundtrack used:
An overdose of Metro Station’s album. This photo and that album just seemed like the perfect match to me.
