Refsheet comm for @bumblebeeboy8! This was a big one with a lot of accessories and detail, including canon-accurate wings and scales (at least, mostly). I very rarely draw HiveWings with real wings so this was a challenge, the opacity overlap in particular was an experiment. Instead of just making each wing its own set of layers and overlaying them on top of each other, I decided to divide the layers by how many layers of wing were over them. Don't do this haha, I'm still not sure I got all the zones colored in correctly and it was way more confusing than it was worth. I am very honored I was trusted with such a big and important ref for this commissioner, thank you so much!
