Super You Pt. 2

 So this is what my final draft turned out like:  I honestly have no clue what transpired in my mind that caused me to make this, but what I've come to realize when working on these projects is that I kind of make the images first and then, after staring at what I've done for a while, come to understand what caused me to make it.
