Every second,
Dripping off my fingertips...

Version 2. You can view the first version here: [link]

Yeah. Because I had my doubts on the first version, I showed it to my brother. He's the best critiquer in the world; he sure is good at trampling your ego. Which is what an artist* oh so desperately needs sometimes Keeps you from getting narcissistic
* or just anybody who does creative stuff

When I showed the first version to him, he laughed at it and said some things I'm not going to repeat He thought it was weird as hell and the orange texture reminded him of lava balls
Oh my god, we had so much fun laughing at my work.

So he helped me change it. He, who knows nothing of manips or Photoshop.

I've been revising it ever since and I think it's about finished now I personally still like the first version, haha, but I like this one, too. It's more of what I envisioned the final manip to be, so that's good.

Hope you like it!
