Artist's commentary
This image is tagged as "experimental", this is done when commission doesn't properly represent the number of slots used. In most cases this is because I spent more time drawing it than the number of slots required, but it's always good practice to experiment so I'm happy to do it!
Reason for Experimental: I'm often told my style is quite soft and cute, so it might not come as a surprise that a darker, scarier-looking image like this takes some extra tweaking to get right. The extra shading, the rimlighting, the glowing eyes and even the vignette took some tweaking to look right. I think it came out spooky, but I think the softness in my artstyle still manages to shine through.
