I found your journal, glad I did, this is an amazing work, I never worked the way you do, had no idea how to do, this is amazing details, the way I do is like pencil drawing, I try to do details and it takes me moooooonths to finish it, you make it look so easy.
When I have the time and not get interrupted I will try your way.
Thanks a million for posting it. xoxoxoo
