My Portrait of Taz: Developing the Background

After getting the base colors lain in for the background, it was time to start developing shapes, fine-tuning colors, establishing lights and darks to show form, and even adding some detail to the more finished areas.
Along the way, I was adding some paint to Taz when I had extra. This helped me see the picture as a whole and also gave me a head start on getting some of Taz's markings and features established.
THANK YOU to everyone who explained that the picture file was probably too big! That solved my problem.

I didn't know, or at least didn't remember. I'm glad for the people who commented here and explained what was wrong.

@AliCanary You are welcome. In my opinion the myLot FAQ should be re-written, as this limit is written nowhere.

I wish there had been a popup to explain that. This probably isn't the first time I've messed it up because of that. Thanks for reminding me!

@AliCanary It is written nowhere, if you knew how many users have this problem and they cannot understand the reason.

@AliCanary You’re welcome, but forgive the autocorrect error of Taz.

Your photo cannot be over 3MB. If it is, you'll have to resize. Looking forward to it.
