This page presented a bit of a ‘set-building’ problem, but also a scene-building opportunity. When I first dreamt up this page, I imaged the girls going directly to a beach from the edge of the forest. Problem is, that scene[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This one was a bit difficult to plan out at first, but I think I turned out the way I wanted (which can be hard when I never really know what that is 😀 ). I kinda like how the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
