Beautiful work and such delicate shading, are those leaves?
Great progress

Ooh, you've got lots done, it's coming along great! My two favourite colours are purple and green as well so it will be great if you rotate this with Vanity.

Thankyou everyone for your great comments, you really spur me on.

I am sooo tempted by all the seven deadly sins, I was going to kit up Lust next but just wanted somehting with lots of purple in my rotation!

Louise, yep they are leaves, its a tree in the background alongside some pillars. I really like interesting backgrounds to stitch, so much better than just a colour of texture effect for a BG.

I sooo want to get this 2nd page complete, I am so eager to get to her face and hair, but that will be months off yet!

dont feel so bad I can not possible do more then one at a time either. I could if I really wanted to, but I would rather not. I know I would end up being confused and put the wrong color somewhere.

You're doing wonderful work on this! The greens are gorgeous!

Fantastic start to this one and I look forward to seeing the second sin in rotation with this one too!
