well... this was a wild ride of a piece ill tell ya. Worked on this for a whole frustrating 4 days. The design started out very basic, but as it evolved and I started adding more details it started looking more and more like bloodmoon diana. The composition near the middle was looking kinda bad so I had to change things up and took reference from eve's splashes. I noticed a recurring theme of her seducing and entrancing men, so I decided to go with that as my thematic element. I referenced many splashes to make this piece, but the most prevalent are, of course, all of the bloodmoon skins. The whole process of making this illustration was fun and ultimately I learned a shiz ton just doing it. Backgrounds will always evade my imagination, but I learned a lot more on how to make one from just this piece. Hopefully it lives up to everyone else's standards even though it barely lived up to mine xP
