      @Sofie-Schollaert Do you think I should color them brown? I had a bunch of sketches with hands, two fingers, three fingers and only the worm like arms seemed to do it for me. I did struggle with that piece. What else do you think I can do?

        @Chip-Valecek A color block at the end might do it. Have you tried that solution? It’s a good idea. 👍🏻

          @Chip-Valecek I get it, it's hard to make it fit in right. you might just add a line and make them another colour, just to define that there are hoves (or whatever)... Like I said, it's just a little thing...

            you know what I just now realised: the one who's eating the bacon is in fact 'the good girl' type while the other two are more 'bad boys'. Just LOVE that aspect of it! I just had to point that out 😃

              Thank you everyone for your feedback and direction while I worked on this. Here are my final 2 versions. Which one would do you all prefer?

              Option A.) Normal background:

              Option B.) Blurred background:

                background:

                I really like the not blurred version. I think they are recessed enough by the color difference.

                One thing I do notice is that the angle of the sign on the back wall is a bit off. It should be at the same angle as the floor molding below or it looks like it has been hung crooked on the wall.

                I really like this piece. Poor pig can’t help it. Bacon is the best!

                  @JennyJones great catch on the sign. I will fix that!

                    @Chip-Valecek it looks like the bacon is glowing gold? I’m getting very magical vibes. Like Midus touch or something is going on.

                    The lighting effect I is cool and nicely rendered, but it’s confusing story wise to me.

                    Is it just me?

                      I think the pigs stand out more with the blurred background.
