Here's another redraw of an old art of mine, quite proud of how this one turned out.
I don't think there's really any way to explain the thoughts behind this better than just the title; it's about pain, and wear and tear. Life's constant barrage of worry unto your soul, yet you have to keep moving, you have to keep marching on. Not even because you want to- because you don't. You want to sleep.

I like this background better! Also like the black guy.

Thanks! It's a bunch of other black and white patterns overlaid on top of each other. And yeah, the black one is certainly neat.
