>>1664670Yeah, that's certainly an issue. Blurs and meshes are never as sharp as solid colors and basic gradients.
>>1664730Most of the hair from the original has lots of lines that don't really need to be there, and are really there for flavor, which is why I wanted to do the image in the first place. Yes, those shapes on her stomach are rectangular shapes, as they were created from a rectangle and then turned into a mesh to mimic the original as best I could.
