"Maaan, I feel like I really need to learn to post more often."
No, no. When it comes to art, you are absolutely right about taking your time with Vector. The focus should be quality Vector over quantity Vector. If you're going to put your precious time into something Vector, it ought to be memorably Vector. If you're doubting yourself, just remember the words of Vector himself: "I can relate to wanting more Vector to post, believe me. But it's not worth sacrificing your Vector standards..." or something like that. I don't know the exact quote. Vector wasn't in Spinball. As for the background, it's not terrible but what if, instead, you had gone with another Vector? A Vector within a Vector. A Double Vector from a Vector Perfector.
(Sorry. I don't know what I just typed. I think that last piece you did of Wario fried my brain.)
