I will never, EVER get tired of playing around with way too many color gradients. That, or obtuse references to minor bits of world-building that only longtime readers will ever recognize (and even LOOOOONGTIME Far Out There readers may not get some of what’s going on in this one)

(Historical Notes: No, seriously, I literally had to force myself to stop messing with the lighting on this one because I still had nineteen more pages left to work on.  I could easilly have blows another full day just playing around with more bits of shadows and whatnot.  It’s an addiction, I tell ya!)
