    Nice choice of theme! It conjures so many ideas.

    Ouch Cano, that's gotta hurt. I know it's only at an early stage yet so maybe it's just hard to tell visually, but now it looks as if her arm is bent at the elbow but not at the wrist, which would make her arm go through the table. Maybe a different angle of the metal cuff would make it clearer that she's bending her wrist to see her hand.

    You are correct, Voluspa, I hadn't noticed. I'll change the cuff angle for the next wip. Thanks! Big Smile

    Congrats on the win Tim.  Big Smile  Good topic choice too.  I probably won't have time to enter something but I'll try if I can.

    Starting this a wee bit late I think!  Don't think I'll get it finished but I'll have a go.  This is based on an idea I had a while ago - fairies making a part of the desert their home.

    very rough wip 1!  :
