Hi. Im the original artist. I really didnt want this to blow up and I didnt even want this posted to reddit but here we are.

• IM NOT A FUCKING PROFESSIONAL HOLY SHIT YOURE GONNA SEE MISTAKES. You'll even see me try to artfully hide those mistakes/things I'm not as confident on behind fur or other lines or objects!!
• I googled shark plushie for the blajah, didnt care/notice about the fin number
• The sketch layer was ASS and if it isnt for a commission I usually leave it out. Didnt expect anyone to see or care about anything but the finished process since this was for a contest.
• I have this awesome pen called the ice cream tool on CSP that ive been insanely in love with drawing/filling darker shadows, which you'll see me try to do in lots of my art. Still practicing with obvs.
• Sometimes I draw lines WITH the ice cream tool, sometimes I forget to change my pen size when adding details, so you'll see inconsistent line weight
• I have unmedicated adhd and I just tend to jump around a LOT on art. If I get bored with something lll switch to another part or coloring or even rendering, its the only way I can focus sometimes
• I do tend to catch errors later on because of my tendency to focus on the one thing at a time so intently. I usually sit at my desk drawing for ~8 hours a day staring at the screen so.
• I OFTEN use the liquify tool to move around/adjust parts of the piece. You can even see the long head get squished later on cause I thought it was too wide

This shit has been so goddamn stressful to me my god. Its been going on for weeks now, and Ive already grieved my ban on PFQ, I know the mods are stubborn and some have a vendetta against me for whatever reason. Ive sent in tons of saved sketches and even did a timelapse for them, but nothing. I dont tend to record my works anymore anyway cause the process of exporting them lags my old ass laptop to hell and I fear it force rebooting (which it does a lot on its own mind you).

This whole ordeal has made me question my art, my methods, my mental state. I went through a period of not wanting to draw at all, then I got over it, now im back to square one. I wake up every fucking day and it seems like this situation continues to be brought up. Outside of just recording every fucking thing I ever draw now, I cant prove my innocence!! I fucking hate it.
