A futile gesture...

"And so, for your valiant efforts while defending our last city on the surface, I award you this medal.... Gerson?"
"Yes, my liege?"
"The war is lost. All sacrifices, both yours and others, were in vain. I am sorry..."
"I will wear it with honour nonetheless."

Been wondering for a while what it must have look like after the war for the monsters and how Asgore reacted to all of that given that he was the leader.

This one's been a bumpy ride, the background colours have been a huge issue, I ended up doing it from scratch three or four times. It was either too messy, or it was blending with characters too much, or it didn't fit, lol.

Though I do admit I am fairly happy with Asgore's face, found a new way of drawing hair and improved a bit the way I do eyes. Also, discovery of the month: shading on armour should look completely different than shading on clothes because of the rigid, metallic surface that may shine in places.
