Hello! As per our new rule (which can be viewed in the Announcements channel on Discord), could you please elaborate on what makes this piece get the Effort bonus?

I've never really tried to place backgrounds on any piece (other than something that was photomanipulated) and even then, I've never tried to make one from scratch. While this one is a bit rudimentary, this is a new technique for me to try out and attempt. It isn't the best, but I'm proud to have put the effort forth to learn this. It'll only get better from here (though after this particular piece it won't really be so much as effort as it is improvement on a technique I've learned). Not only that but this is the first time I've tried to lump so many characters together, so placements and shadows and such were new, as well as the perspective of the placing. While the piece took some time to do, I don't think that would be the effort you're looking for. I did also add a LOT of detail to these tiny little beans!
