White sand Sea-Turtle by itzfahimhasan on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

It's true that sometimes things don't go according to our plans. I can't even begin to describe the trouble I had while working on this drawing.

Everything was going well; I was drawing a turtle. Just as I was about to start the background, the power in my house went out. To make matters worse, my computer, where I was working in Photoshop, also crashed.

Eventually, when I tried to resume work, I discovered that the file was inaccessible. I don't know what happened; it showed that the document no longer existed. Hearing such things after putting in so much effort makes me want to give up drawing altogether.

I tried very hard, but the file wouldn't recover. I didn't understand why, as I had saved backups before. Forced to start over, I was fortunate to have an old saved version of the drawing. I continued working on that. Finally, it is completed. Of course, since the background wasn't redrawn, I used a previous screenshot for the background and edited it to finish the work. I don't know how you’ll like the story, but I do know that you’ve liked the drawing itself. Since it didn’t turn out as well as I hoped, I’ve set the price lower.
