Default Koala finished
Well, I finished with the koala today. I'm not as thrilled with the ear as I'd like to be, but it was one of those "leave it alone before you make it worse" things.

Beautifully done, Pol. Have your hand and eyes recovered from all those dots yet?

Pol,

That is absolutely phenomenal!

While I can't see the ear as well as you can on the original, I think it looks great - it seems to fade into the background for a very interesting effect.

Thanks, Bill. Perhaps I'm being too critical of myself, as I'm sure we all have a way to do with our own work. And Beth, yes, my hand feels better. It does take a lot out of them.

Fantastic job on the Koala. If you don't like him, I know a perfect spot for him. Thanks for sharing.
