I used a new method to do a double spread that makes the center line look a little off but I think it will look fine for the printed release, since a lot of that area will get cut/reduced. I thought the tones for this page would be relatively simple but I ended up spending a whole day on these pages because the background tone was hard to work with. I only had one sheet to cover two pages so I had to get creative. Still trying to learn how to draw special effects like fire/water! Gonna have to get used to being a bit more creative in that regard... the elemental magic is here to stay, after all!
