Perfect, thank you! I tried to no end to figure it out 😄it's only fair I credit where it's due

Thank you!

Sometimes I take portrait commissions from a big d&d community 😄and people have all sorts of interesting characters

Thank you 🙏

I made this one on the ipad. I only used one brush, I think. I'm not sure I shared it here before.

Thank you for your continuing words of encouragement. I am inclined to agree, a good pair. Makes me want to do more like them
