Description THIS baby is what 15 here-and-there spare hours and 35 layers looks like. A bit of an accomplishment here. Also, probably my favorite piece to date.

According to Google Images, apparently no one in the entire friggin world has ever colored anything featuring uv light, as the wasn't a single ref I could find anywhere. So I looked at rave party pics until I got it.

Thanks to Chris for his beautiful Illustration. See the original here: [link]

Wow, I can imagine this involved a lot of trial and error with the UV colouring then?
Either way, looks really great, fantastic work. I like it.

Thank you!
Yeah, apparently no one has, says Google. I could not find ANY refs or explanations. So i just read up and looked at actual photos, which there aren't very many of those, either.

Probably because it was really difficult and not the least bit intuitive. LOL
"Oh so white objects become SUPER white, but reflect a mixture of bright blue and deep cyan light instead of... white?
Skin is purplish but with a kind of indescribable quality to it?
That makes total sense..."
