YAY! You posted! <3 Love this variation on the artwork, the light coming down, the shadows. Can't wait to read the fic that goes with it!

Love the lighting and Merlin's back and the detail on the snake! Lovely!

Thanks Kitty! The lighting was fun to do :D

Love this. LOVE. It's one of those double- or triple-take pieces for me, like if it were hanging in a gallery I'd keep circling back by it again and again because it's inviting me in but also pushing me out and I want to stare but it feels illicit somehow and I swear that snake's judging me but I can't look away and it's just all so completely fucking pretty and undeniably magic. *applause*

Thank you!! When I first sketched the piece out, it was from a voyueristic POV, like, a crack in the door or behind a curtain or something like that, so I'm glad the illicit feeling still managed to persist! And YES! Judgy snake is judging LOL!

This is so cool! The colors and the background, and the scaled coils of the snake are so lovely. Awesome. XD
