Hi, guys! What's up?
How did your week go? Mine was spent on polishing the Castle's Gate Background--mostly me refining the... what do you call this? The ridges? I mean, the border between the stacking ricefield, where people can walk on it. The texturing is all hand-made, it looks more natural this way and I couldn't be happier with the result!

It's something that is usually unnoticeable, but if you looked at Ghibli backgrounds, I'm pretty sure each blade of grass is hand-drawn! I really admire their patience. My grasses & flowers still look like a fat line sometimes (if you look closely), which is why I often depend on brushes.

But after considering everything, I'm pretty happy with the end result! 

The Daytime version can be considered finished now! I will proceed and make the Afternoon & Night version once I rested my wrist~ I will not touch the Daytime version again--unless I suddenly get an inspiration on how I can improve it some more!

Phew, that's it for now and see you again next week! Let's keep working hard together & I hope you enjoyed today's sneak peeks!  xoxo,

SweetChiel
