At this point it was about a year ago that I drew this thing. I remember really struggling with how much detail to put into the moon's surface and I ended up splitting the difference with some textures. I now know: the more detail the better! You have to understand, for some reason I really really really hurried through this project. I don't know what it was, I think I wanted to feel like I had something, anything under my belt. Unfortunately for Chanda, she was the sacrificial lamb.
At the time that I drew this my thoughts were that I should just get through it and the story would be strong enough to carry the artwork if it wasn't exactly up to snuff. Lesson learned: Make EVERYTHING as strong as possible. Put as much work into prep as into execution. Better to take four years to make one project than one year to make four projects.
