i ran out of space, but picrel is the recording i took again (after saving the finished product to the .xcf beforehand, again, to make sure i didn't accidentally draw a stroke or something and be unable to ctrl+y my edit back to the present) of me editing in the smegma. i honestly think my first attempt at drawing it wasn't bad, looking at it after doing this attempt; it gives off more a feel of being dry and crumbly, as opposed to this second attempt of mine, which is more drippy. and i prefer that there is simply more smegma i my first attempt, which helps it look like a lighter color, too. but it wasn't what i was trying to do at the time, so i was embarrassed by it. but, again, it's just different, not worse, i think, now

i also didn't even try to add the bags under her eyes i wanted to, let alone fixing the two errors in her glasses. i also had the thought (though never said it out loud prior) to add precum (preferably cum, but i don't know if i'd be able to manage that), and i know it'd be far easier than adding smegma, since i checked how cham22 does precum, and it's literally just a white oval with another white oval inside it to depict the light refracting off it:

it would be super easy, but, i just can't right now. again, i don't even want to add precum, anyway; i wish it were cum. i'll just move on for now and hopefully develop the skill to do other things later, and hopefully do smegma better and easier and with less stress the more i do it

oh, i nearly forgot to say, but i also obviously finally gave up on "drop shadow" (even though for "wild words" i preferred it) to do "stroke" (outline) text instead. since the letters in this font are rounder (especially since it gives me access to lowercase letters), i think "stroke" just highlights the roundness, which i feel adds to the cuteness of it. i also considered inverting the font colors, but that wouldn't scale for coloring the words
