Snail's Journey

Another piece I finished last December. I added Kreinik to the bug wings but didn't bother trying to get a close photo of them since it's so small.

Thank you so much for the DD that's so nice! So unexpected!

This was SUCH A PAIN to edit once I finally got a clear enough photo. The fabric is like a barely blue shade of grey but the camera and editing software really wanted to add a ton of color to it. Made the reds wash out but the rest is pretty accurate.

The changed pixel flower is from https://www.vectorstock.com/royalty-free-vector/pixel-flower-icon-retro-blossom-vector-46264825

It's just a cute little snail with mushrooms and stuff growing on his back. The big change that I did to this one was it had these - uh - it had two little blush marks next to its mouth. And I'm so used to seeing the snail from like Adventure Time where the the eye stalks aren't eye stalks, right? The eyes are down here by the mouth. It made it look like - so the blush marks are red - so, it made it look like the snail was, like, possessed. And I was like, "oh! I don't want like a zombie snail!" I removed the blush marks and so he just has the eye stalks. I changed the flower. Okay, the flower right here, on the original pattern is - it's just a little stick flower, I changed it. In the to-be-made DeviantArt description I'm going to have a link to this flower 'cause it's some pixel art that I pulled off of Google and then I found the original artist for it. Nothing wrong with the stick flower, it just didn't really do it for me. And then I added Kreinik to these little bug wings.
