Holy crud, 520+ layers? 
I lOVE the Mana Beast; it's absolutely gorgeous, and was quite a marvel for its time in the gaming world. So many COLORS!
Say, do you like Chrono Trigger or Secret of Evermore, too? :3

Thanks~
I gotta admit, I haven't played those (yet)

D'awww! You should, since they're both made by Square, too!
Also, for this pic, I can has print? (I can't find the "Request as Print" button.) I'd like to add it to my huge poster/print collection on the wall behind my computer desk!

Ohhhhhhhh sure! (Didn't bother submitting any of my pics as prints because I'm lazy and I didn't expect to buy any of my pictures yet)
Though, actually... I think submitting fanarts as prints isn't allowed, because of copyright and stuff.. I'm not sure if that one would get through

Hmmm.... I don't like Seiken Densetsu 2 (Secret of Mana)...
(The epicness of this picture exceeds my complimenting skills... Excellent job!)

Don't like it? And yet using the sprite as your icon...?
Thanks

Listening to the music really ups the impact of this picture. Great work, I'm especially digging the lighting detail in the wings.

I completely redidi the right wing after the first try.... Yanno, I tried to stick to the original sprite with all the colors and shadows, but that's pretty hard when the shading on the sprite looks nice (cause it's small) but TOTALLY makes no sense.
I redid a lot... until I was pleased. That's why it took so goddamn awful long... and that's why I appreciate your comment even more x)
