Minecraft Pack Process - Porkchop

I've been making so much good progress with my resource pack and texturing has been a blast... I'm so proud of my current works that I felt like showing off a little bit.

This is my porkchop, with a half size 70% opacity and 100% clip example of what it looked like at full size before shrinking it down and cleaning it up for the pack. Each one took about 2 hours, about 35-40 separate layers, and a lot of strokes and blending. Thanks to this and a couple other recent works, I've got a little list of past textures that I plan on remaking before I actually release my pack. I'd rather be happy with what I've already gotten done before the release.

To all of you out there who are looking forward to the release, I'd like to thank you all for your patience! I'd also ask you, if you have any comments, questions, suggestions or critique to please feel free to make them! I'd LOVE some feedback, and even though this is my project I'm not going to reject outside ideas and opinions.

Most of my updates and images are being posted up over on the minecraft forums, so feel free to visit my thread for more info on my pack. :3
