      @hayleyannececil when I first saw the lines I was like "oh definitely lines" but I prefer the no lines! haha. Great work! It looks so soft without the lines.

        @Richard-Matthews hahaha! It’s a struggle, I’ve now done a soft line version, going to post the 2 new ones below! Think I still prefer no lines!

            Ok...soooo I THINK I prefer no lines in the end! Here’s both options together :)! Edit, ignore the dark blob on foot, thought I rubbed that out 🤦🏻‍♀️

              @hayleyannececil Beautiful! I love the softness of it. Still I prefer the ones with lines, it ads a little bit more readability to it. Maybe you can tone them down even more, for instance on the left foot (also the tangent there makes it a bit less clear).
              Very nice work!

                You don't have to change the words but I love making things rhyme so thought I would add "The Yeti cooked with flare and secret spices. With aroma in the air to keep it nice". No pressure at all :). I still prefer the no lines, great work!

                  @hayleyannececil Super cute! I agree with @joosterwijk , the lines make it more readable and a bit sharper/finished. Great work; I love how gentle it feels.

                    @hayleyannececil beautiful! Of the two, I prefer the one with lines, for the readability reason like everyone else. 😉

                    But both are great -- you do you and go with the one you like best!

                      Your last one nailed it I think the subtle non black looks amazing.

                        Haha seems like people are liking the lines, maybe I need to emphasise certain parts with lines and have some parts without lines to satisfy both my likes 😂
