This was just one big practice session in Photoshop. I tend to draw myself pretty frequently, truth be told, since I use myself for experiments when I'm too lazy to make up a new character for random projects such as this one. It took me a very long time, but I ended up having a blast (although at one point the water got on my nerves). This was all about coloring, masks, and brushes in Photoshop. I like to think some improvement in my Photoshop abilities was made, though not much.
