    Oversized Moons implemented in drawings set at night.

    Seriously, it's bothering me. In 83% of the drawings set at night there's an oversized moon visible.

    WHY?

    That's amore~

    And... um... gives more drama. Otherwise the moon would look like a really big star or white far off planet than the moon itself. Geez... since when does art have to be 100% literal in the first place eh? ;P

    Having been guilty of doing this recently, my thoughts were to use the moon as a design element and scale was secondary in the thought process.

    stupid you, Ra'!

    of course you need a big moon in night-drawings >>> as the strong passive (because the light comes from sun blablabla) lightsource ... elsewise there would be nothing to color if everything was black

    Question

    Hmm...

    My calculations put it at 82.6%.

    You must be rounding up.
