FINALLY. After weeks and weeks and WEEKS of desperately trying not to ruin it, I am done!

...I think. I mean, there--there's still some--some stuff that I--It's finished! I'm not...Argh. I'm having trouble believing I've actually finished. I've just spent so many hours on it...

Hopefully, this is the kind of thing that'll only take future me around five hours, as opposed to the seventy jillion that it took present me. I mean past me. Because I'm--I'm done working on it.

Yep.

I apologize very sincerely for the ear, that was my first real attempt at a genuine human ear and it, well, it's good enough that I don't wanna keep messing with it, but...bad enough that my eyes deliberately avoid that specific area of the picture.

What if this turns into my Mona Lisa and I end up continually tinkering with it?...FOREVER. And when I die people will ask, "Hey, how come she has no eyebrows?".

ANYWAY, this started out as a little stick figure sketch and mutated from there. Originally, all I wanted to do was see if the burn and dodge tool would work for me if I used grey and added color later, instead of using base colors and horrifically warping them. Which worked, by the way. But, like I've been saying, it was very time consuming, particularly since I didn't have steady access to a good Photoshop that would let me do the stuff I wanted to do. I did, however, have a great deal of obsessive control over everything, which reduced the amount of screwups.

Bioshock is one my favorite games I've ever played, and originally my love for it was restricted to little doodles on scrap paper during school. Then I made this, so...

Makes me wish I could draw more Half-Life stuff.

I do not own any Bioshock concepts here, I just made the picture.

At first I spent some time obsessing over making the picture canonical--y'know, styling the girls more like the first game, making the area look more like the Medical Pavilion or somewhere recognizable--but...well, it's just a picture. It's what was in my head.

Also, I think the girl's dresses are supposed to be tied in the back, but it might be too late for that now.

Next thing I do will probably be from one of my own stories.

And---Uh---I'll, I'll stop talking now, you didn't have to read all of that if you didn't want to.
