Thank you! I did the shoop thing, but it worked really well for the story. Al's body and the kitty are from Darker than Black (Hei and Mao). Took the Rockbell shop from an episode on netflix, had to continue the wall and shadow on the road (OMG what a daunting task!!) then filled in the grass for a little hill nearby and voila! I reshaded Al's face and fixed his eyebrows, also made him look thinner in the face too. Actually did the wallpaper before I did the fic!

guh, sorry I ramble (like Al!!)
