Used Katsushika Hokusai's ukiyoe again, well, actually it's the third time, LOL. The previous two are "Sakuran" and "Vingt-et-un", the highlight of the former is the "high and low terrain" on the top left corner which was a lucky fluke.
"Secret Base" is quiet different from my other works, though I can't tell where it is. Anyway, I love the the combination of occidental fairy tale and ukiyoe. The whole picture can considered as "Once upon a time there's a sky forest in the cold winter, and that's my secret base. It's spring there all around the year and animals..." Okay stop, it's bullshit. Like I used to say (did I?), I just put things in and take things out blindly till it makes sense. It might be a waste of time, but it always end up with something unexpected.
