I think the main problem of this awesome artist, is that he makes his pics too fucking big (and detailed at that), people dont have patience to let it load and see how cool they are
They're scans from his/her newest CG book. Most scans from any artist tend to be huge both in file size and actual size. This image here was over 12MB in size, but I (re)saved it as a JPG with the lowest compression rate my Photoshop-equse can muster so people wouldn't complain about file size. I guess it failed miserably
