Description ....IT. IS. FINISHED.

You would not believe how long ago I started this..and how long it has been sitting literally half finished in my PSD folder..taunting me...because I had no idea what to do with it.

So I sat around today fighting with it. And occasionally walking away in frustration, returning only because I refused to be defeated by it. And victory is mine! haHA.

Anywho..... this was originally intended to be a new devID. And somewhere along the way it mutated into a bigger project. Not that I'm complaining. I'm just saying that's why it's a twisted render of my 'Mystofeles' persona.

Sketch originally appeared in one of my 'scrap heaps' in my scraps folder. [link]

Yeah, writing doesn't seem to get much attention on dev sadly. I closed my writing account here...ages ago it seems now. But I take the time to read stuff now and again around here, especially since I read so much anyways, am definetely intrigued to check out your page!

Something tells me just the shovel alone would solve a lot of your problems... You'd be amazed what you can accomplish with a shovel..

I'm glad you finished it. It looks great. The swirly mist not only makes an effective frame, but looks awesome in the process.

I started this February of '09..... It's been sitting half finished that long, and what was left to do was so very irritating that I could never convince myself to go work on it... Drove me crazy yesterday. XD

But thank you, sir.
