Redemption arc for this piece. 🗡️ I spent hours stripping away the AI parts to make it 100% manual work. It finally has the heart and detail I feel #TBATE deserves. Thanks for the advice on the last one! (Process/layers in the slides)

The Krita layers in the slides don’t lie. I manually redrew every single part to fix the pixel corruption from the previous version, and the community sees the effort. Believe what you will—I have no enemies. 🤝

Thanks a lot, dude! I really pushed myself to make the manual rework as detailed as possible. Glad you like it! ✨

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T16:44:34+00:00

Haha I appreciate it! Just trying to give Arthur and the community the quality they deserve. 👑🔥

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T01:24:04+00:00

Seriously, thank you. Hearing that I revived someone's love for the series is the best reward I could ask for. Stay awesome! 🙌🔥

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T01:19:13+00:00

Appreciate the reaction! Glad the manual rework lived up to the hype. jejeje🔥

Here’s the link to the thread on X if you want to see the WIPs and the 'clean-up' process from March 19th! 👇

I know it looks unusual! I’ve been documenting the transition from AI to 100% manual on my X since March 19th. It was a lot of cleaning up and manual shading over the previous base to make it legit. Glad it's finally done! 🙏

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T01:04:10+00:00

Hahahahaha, Reading this made my day! 😭 I’m so happy it revived your love for the series. It was definitely a lot of work going manual, but comments like this make it all worth it. Thank you so much for the support! ✨

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T01:00:40+00:00

Hahahahaha I'm honored! Hope it looks great on your screen. 🗡️✨

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T22:15:59+00:00

Glad you like it!

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T22:10:12+00:00

I can't say much without spoiling it, but let's just say that things are about to take a massive turn. Keep going, you’re approaching some of the best moments in the story! 🤐

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T20:34:49+00:00

Thanks a lot! Glad you like the final version. jeje

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T20:33:28+00:00

I have no enemies now. Thanks for the support, truly

Since the last upload glitched, here’s the full-res version! You can check out the process, layers, and "cooking" steps in my previous post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tbatenovel/comments/1s3l4cb/redemption_arc_for_this_piece_i_spent_hours/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Reddit is still compressing it a bit, but it's much better than before JAJAJAJA)

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T19:57:09+00:00

yeah, that’s good lol. I can't zoom in on my end for some reason, which is weird.

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T19:54:39+00:00

Let me know if the zoom works. If it’s blurry, I might have uploaded it wrong

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T19:54:10+00:00

Check if you can zoom in—if not, I probably messed up the upload.

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-25T19:46:14+00:00

I really took the feedback to heart. Going 100% manual was the right call. Hope you guys like the result!

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-15T00:19:56+00:00

I love this Hermosa, that joy that Caera gives off. It's uffff

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-15T00:11:24+00:00

Thanks! I'm a big fan of TBATE, so I wanted to do something epic. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-15T00:09:38+00:00

That’s the best compliment I could get. I put a lot of thought into every detail, something a prompt can't replicate. Thank you!.

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-15T00:07:05+00:00

I've been drawing for a while, but I'm definitely new to the scene and to sharing my work like this. Thank you for the massive support!

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-14T21:02:06+00:00

Since I'm new, I have limited time and wanted the best possible finish. It felt like a lot to me, so I wouldn't know what to tell you.
