FFF THIS TOOK SO LONG.
Did this in two-hour chunks over the past few days and I lost track once I hit 5+ hrs

---
I learned so much doing this though ;__;
Experimented with volume, brushes, coloring...
Also, it's my first piece that I've actually just painted directly on top of the sketch, instead of coloring within an outline :D

I think the most important thing that I realized is that if you just let your painting sit and take your time with it rather than just trying to complete the whole thing in once sitting, the results are better.

Even though I'm not satisfied with some aspects (e.g. the hair), I am very, very, happy with how this turned out.
ONWARDS IN IMPROVEMENT!
