Fiddling with stuff again, still not 100% satisfied, but thinking I'm a step closer to getting what I want.
I like the little dash of flat colors and I like how the registration with color vs. black doesn't quite match up. But I'm thinking there's too many shades of purple? Or maybe the different tones are just too dark? Something's not quite going where I want it. I do like how the black is a solid black like it was supposed to be back when I inked it in the first place.
