@valerie-x I used your pattern as a sort of base and smoothed it a bit. I thought it would be good to credit your pattern since it helped me a lot with this design.
@halokiwi thank you for tagging my pattern in this!!! i do not technically own this design because it is takashi murukami's work, however, i did do the pixel rendition on my own so i wish this person had just posed it as a variation, but oh well haha
