>>1866996>>1867444I ended up continuing the work myself, and now present you the result. You wouldn't believe the amount of man-hours poured into this. Well, except for
>>1869782 probably. Sorry I wasted your efforts. Knowing that somewhere hidden in Japan there's a safety deposit where they store the original picture without any of the text slapped on top of it, yet won't release it for the general public, that is what really kills me. I wouldn't even resent it if they changed their mind tomorrow, rendering my own work on this completely for naught. But until this happens (IF it ever happens, which I doubt) you'll have to make do with my attempt.
If you have any suggestions how to improve on it or better yet, if you think you can touch it up yourself, I'm all open for it. Depressingly enough, the sky still tends to look ever so subtly out of place and gives the edit away.
Anyway, Merry Christmas y'all.
