2024 update: This is a follow up to Caught in Panties by rocketXpert . I don't know if ever still visits deviantART, but I feel like I owe her an apology. When she commissioned this piece, she was not satisfied with certain aspects of the background figures, even after I tried fixing them in Photoshop. I felt bad for failing to fully satisfy my client, but I also admit to feeling a bit defensive about my work and couldn't really see what she was complaining about at the time. It was only later that I began to see the validity of her critiques and even saw stuff about this tableau that she hadn't pointed out that I was personally unhappy with.

One of my frustrations when Teresa asked me to make changes is that she assumed that I'd drawn the characters as separate layers, and that therefore, changing or removing stuff would be a snap. It's maybe not the most unreasonable assumption, since I probably would do things that way more often if I kept up with the times and wasn't so stubbornly insistent on drawing things the old fashioned way as much as possible. I think I've only relatively recently started making things easier on myself by drawing certain elements separately on occasion and not worrying that changing stuff in Photoshop is "cheating." It's not like anyone is going to see the original lineart anyway.

Anyway, I became so disappointed by this drawing, I hid it away in storage, but I've finally gotten around to making some tweaks to the artwork, which is why I'm putting it back on display now.
