    The back cover is a nice addition.

    Thank you very much Thomrey!
    Thanks ChickPea, I'm happy I made a spine and back too.
    Bogie, Thank you!

    I'm suffering a really peculiar optical illusion with this one that I could only dispel by taking my ruler to the screen. I think its because the back cover is currently relatively spacious and white compared to the front, but the illusion is that the back cover is wider. Its not, its spot on - I've just checked, but it just looks that way to me. How weird is that?
    Thank you Mouse, I can see how it could seem that way. I know that both sides are the same though, I hope I can make it look more balanced.

    This is superb, I particularly love the render of the hand and the washed-out colors.
    Good to be back! Thank you for the kind words about my work!

    Edit: I just saw the typo so no need to point it out thanks!

    Absolutely beautiful! I love that you got Ms Granger to write a review for the book, I heard she almost never does that.

    Great to see you back, and with such a wonderful entry. I totally would buy this book! It's a really cool concept and a thoughtful layout. The map works very well, with and without the subtle colours. Also the illustrations and the description/ reviews on the back are a fantastic addition. The lovely details on the compass seem a bit too subtle compared to its outline though. Keep up the great work!

    Thanks Bogie! It was a struggle to get Granger to write the review, she tends to try and weasel out of it most the time.

    Thank you so much Abu Lafia! I agree with you about the compass, I tried to brighten the details a bit and I added a slight highlight. I hope it looks better now.

    With a few small added details.

    Good that you put on the back of the book as well, would have been a shame to hide those quotes

    Nice work, it looks so real I want to pick it up and read it

    One small point I noticed, 'interpete' seems to be a common typo for 'interpret' that many people just interpete it as interpret without realising.
