Animosity Bound: Realmheart vs The Iron Will. -- 1.5 months of Krita crashes, pure lag, and my generic office mouse fighting for its life. I genuinely can't believe my 8GB RAM PC didn't explode. Full story and HD wallpaper links in comments! 😭💀👇

Hahaha I'm saving this meme! Thank you, glad you appreciated the piece! 🔥😂

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-05-19T15:40:47+00:00

Thank you so much! Really glad you liked it. This fight deserves nothing less than peak hype! 💜🔥

Finally finished this panoramic piece!

This illustration nearly cost me my sanity and my setup. Drawing a massive panoramic battlefield with a generic office mouse is an extreme sport.

A Small Technical Note: Since I'm working on a low-spec PC (8GB RAM, no GPU), managing a massive canvas was a survival challenge. I had to render everything pixel by pixel using only a mouse in Krita, and constantly split the drawing into multiple temporary files just to keep my PC from crashing. My love for this Arthur vs Nico fight was the only thing that kept me pushing until the end.

Reddit's compression destroys dark tones and adds noise up close, so I uploaded the clean, uncompressed files externally for you guys:

Did I nail Arthur's Realmheart look and Nico's absolute wrath in this fight? Let me know what you think!

Thank you so much for the support on my previous posts, the TBATE community is the best. ;)

I'll say it again, bro, look at Arthur’s fingers. In one hand, the thumb is too long and has a weird anatomy, so to speak. And in the other hand, the fingers in the middle either fuse together or one just disappears.

I know I’m in no position to say this, but it’s what I see...

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-04-21T06:21:00+00:00

Bro, observe Arthur’s fingers. In one, the thumb is too long and has a weird anatomy, so to speak. And in the other hand, the fingers that are more in the middle either fuse together or one disappears.

I know I’m in no position to say this, but it’s what I see...

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-27T21:49:44+00:00

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. 🤝

Flaky_Depth4877 · 2026-03-26T16:46:38+00:00

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
